Beastly hot


Summer squash is taking over

Fired-up union speech!

AFL-CIO organizer Stuart Acuff gave this fiery oratory to a crowd at the 2006 4th July Solidarity Celebration, Eastern Maine Labor Council, Brewer, Maine. You’ll just have to listen to it to get the full effect!

“…lies like none of us have expected since Richard Nixon…
they lied to get us into an un-necessary war,
they lied about torture,
they lied about extraordinary renditions,
and they have lied to deface and defame the honor of the United States of America…

“Bush trade policy has cost us 3 million good manufacturing jobs.”

–Stuart Acuff
