Democratic Club meeting to focus on war memo

South Florida Sun Sentinel

The Palm Beach Democratic Club plans a town hall meeting at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Palm Beach Towers in Palm Beach to mark the anniversary of the meeting that gave birth to "The Downing Street Memo." Critics of President Bush and the war in Iraq contend the memo shows the administration fixed intelligence around its policy in Iraq.

"It is time for us, as citizens, to demand accountability from our government," club officials wrote in an announcement.

The club has invited Florida U.S. senators and several members of the House to the event. Contact Elna Laun at 561-686-2060or David Presnky at 561-832-8511 for more information. The towers are at 44 Cocoanut Row, between Poinciana Plaza and the Flagler Museum.
