Week of October 19, 2008 - October 25, 2008

Norm Coleman - risking your money on Wall Street. Really.


Yes, THAT Wall Street!

Social Security is supposed to be there for your retirement. Too bad Norm Coleman doesn't think so.

He wants to risk your social security money on Wall Street. That's right, the same Wall Street that has suffered massive losses, and continued instability.

But, Norm Coleman really likes the Bush idea of privatized social security - and is willing to risk YOUR retirement to support Bush's bad ideas.

Norm Coleman - gambling with your future. Video here.

Mitch McConnell - creating jobs OUTSIDE of Kentucky


Mitch McConnell has created literally thousands of jobs. Or so he would like us to believe.

In reality, he has supported unfair trade deals that penalize American workers. Also, he has supported tax breaks to big corporations that ship our jobs overseas.

If that is not bad enough, it gets worse.

During the time Mitch McConnell was claiming to have created jobs, he was not being completely truthful. He did create jobs - in Mexico, Honduras, and in China.

Good for them. Not so good for Kentucky.  Video here!

Elizabeth Dole - sitting in Silence


Elizabeth Dole - the silence is deafening.

After 6 years on the Senate banking committee she managed to not ask a single question, about anything!

And now, our economy is in trouble, banks are failing, and the stock market is dropping.

Elizabeth Dole's lack of action on the committee is an appalling level of oversight. Adding to that, she voted against legislation to help people stay in their homes, and has been labeled as ineffective by North Carolina newspapers.

While Dole sat in silence, she did manage to collect donations from Wall Street to the tune of $850,000. Was it all just "hush-money?"

It's time for Dole to leave the Senate, and clear the way for someone who will speak up for North Carolina.

Video Here.

Roger Wicker - his wages goes up, yours do not.


Roger Wicker is not standing up for workers. He has voted against minimum wage increases multiple times.

The kind of wage increase he does support is one closer to home - his own wage, as a matter of fact.

So while Roger Wicker is busy supporting the Bush agenda of opposing minimum wage increases so the working poor can support themselves, he is busy giving himself pay increases, all at the tax-payers expense.

To make life harder on those who are already struggling, he also voted against expanding health care coverage for the children of poor parents in Mississippi.

Roger Wicker has been busy in Washington - increasing his own pay, but making things harder for the rest of us.

Video here.

John Sununu - time to leave DC


John Sununu is a tough-love kind of guy. His response to citizens from his state that are concerned about high health care costs "stop complaining."

Sununu has been Bush's man in the Senate -  stopping the U.S. from importing cheaper prescription drugs from Canada, supported cutting Medicare payments, and voted against better health care for our military veterans.

George W Bush is leaving Washington soon, it looks like Sununu should leave with him.

Video here.

Norm Coleman - now Running...and running...and running!


Check the video here!

On your marks.

Get set.

GO(P)!

Norm Coleman must be getting tired. He has been running from his record of supporting Bush, pushing tax breaks for oil companies, and supporting deregulation on Wall Street.

Will he make back to office on Election Day?

That's for Minnesota voters to decide.
