Dan Froomkin at Drinking Liberally

Update: Dan will need to reschedule tonight’s guest appearance at Drinking Liberally. New date coming soon.

On Thursday, January 25 the DC chapter of Drinking Liberally is proud to host washingtonpost.com columnist Dan Froomkin at Timberlake’s, Dupont Circle. Dan is best known for his White House Briefing column, a weekday roundup of all the latest on the White House. His column is a critical favorite in the political blogosphere.
