The director of last year's wildly influential Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price, Robert Greenwald, has a new film from Brave New Films, "Iraq for Sale: The War Profiteers," to be released this October, and we want you to get involved in its premiere.

The film will expose the hidden truth of rampant profiteering in Iraq through the stories of soldiers, whistleblowers, survivors, and families of loved ones lost to corporate greed. "Iraq for Sale" can trigger a vital debate on our country's priorities in Iraq just a few weeks before America votes.

This is a huge and unprecedented opportunity for us to have an impact, so Progressive Majority is sponsoring screenings on Saturday, October 14th, during an entire "Patriotism over Profit" week of screenings.

We need you to host one of these screening in your home, church, business, school, living room, or community center. Learn more and sign up here:

"Iraq for Sale" will be more than a film - it will inspire everyone to take action because it is a cause that unites both Democrats and Republicans, pro-war and anti-war. There is no excuse or justification for corporations like Blackwater, CACI, Titan, and Halliburton to make obscene profits during war time. No excuse. Simple as that.

We've seen clips from the film and are very excited by the impact it can have. The DVD is available for pre-order now (it ships late September) and you should get a copy whether you are hosting a screening or not. Pre-order it for only $12.95:

We'll have more information and details as October approaches. Please get involved. You will have lots of fun and whether you organize a private screening for family and friends, or a large public community event, you will have made an impact.

Thank you for everything you do,
