3. That's a really good one
I would love to see Al do a similar one where he compares the number of public-works project he voted to fund in Iraq vs. Minnesota.


Are you listening, Al?

4. I love the "Reality Check" about that anti-EFCA ad
Basically the ad tries to tie unionism to Mafia crime and implies that the Employee Free Choice Act gets rid of the secret ballot. Fact? It prevents employers from demanding a secret ballot and allows workers the option of publicly declaring a union.

5. Glad to give rec #5. WTG, Al.
Excellent ad - all the money we're spending on an illegal war in Iraq (and on shoddily done construction projects that usually don't even involve hiring Iraqis) could be spent at home on projects to improve everyone's lives here.

Some of the idiotic youtube comments from people who don't get it just... give me a headache. Sad.

8. It should sell well to the "America first" crowd
He could have also mentioned all the other humanitarian projects we spend our tax dollars on. Maybe list the amounts vs what we spend on civil projects here.
