This is a rare gem. This was a PSA that the voice-over person decided to record an "alternate" version of for fun. This comes from the arch...

As first reported by The Plum Line , Virginia Republican Eric Cantor is in hot water after responding to critics with a profane web video. The union coalition AFSCME (American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees), along with Americans United for Change, started running ads targeting Cantor for encouraging Republican opposition to the economic recovery plan. The House whip reacted with...

Today, public-workers union AFSCME launched a massive advertising campaign targeting neo-Hooverite conservatives who are trying to block President Obama’s recovery and reinvestment plan. One target is Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA), whom the union faults for declaring he was proud that his party was “just saying no” to Obama. Cantor responded by sending around a profanity-laced [...]

(Profanity laced video) The second most powerful Republican House member, Eric Cantor sent out the above disgusting video bashing AFSCME because AFSCME has targeted him as a " just say no " man to the stimulus package. As an Italian American I understand the fascination with the mafia, yes I loved " The Godfather ," but when a powerful House Republican uses it to smear hard working Americans, Italians...

If you haven’t seen this yet at Greg Sargent’s, check out this crazy video Eric Cantor’s office put out about AFSCME. It’s actually kind of funny in a way, but it’s (a) profanity-laced and (b) doesn’t make AFSCME look particularly bad. I’m beginning to agree with Matt Yglesias that the only reason anyone thinks Cantor is smart [...]

First Read looks at the winners and losers as the economic stimulus bill nears passage. "The obvious winner here, of course, is Obama, who will get the first big victory of his four-week-old presidency. Other winners are Collins/Snowe/Specter (who proved that they will control what passes in the 111th Congress), Harry Reid (who got the 60-plus votes he needed), Joe Lieberman (who helped behind the...

but only one jerk voted with the obstructionists against Obama's plan Last week we congratulated the DCCC for running ads against some of the anti-family reactionaries that are trying to obstruct President Obama's stimulus plans. Our one gripe is that they left themselves open to charges of hypocrisy by going after only Republican obstructionists like Dan Lungren (R-CA), Ken Calvert (R-CA), the notorious...

Marcy Wheeler has an amazing post up about that daring rescue of all those airline passengers in the Hudson River yesterday. Turns out that almost everyone involved in the rescue, top to bottom, was a union member. I'm going to borrow liberally from her post. There's the pilot: "What might have been a catastrophe in New York — one that evoked the feel if not the scale of the Sept. 11 attack — was...

Apparently, the video is a 70s era promotional piece for AFSCME, but the voiceover guy recorded this “alternative” version of the script for fun. CAUTION: NSFW LANGUAGE.

Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) is the second most powerful Republican in the House. In response to a pro-recovery lobbying campaign by AFSCME, his spokesman Brad Dayspring sent around this disgusting old video as an anti-AFSCME "joke." When I took my first (and only!) job working for a politician (a Democratic state senator in Connecticut), I was told that everything I did reflected on my boss, so I had...

Terry McAuliffe continues to do well with unions - scoring the support of the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. You may recall that AFSCME has already made some political news in Virginia - and some internal waves in U.S. Rep. Eric Cantor's office - during a brief tempest in a teapot earlier this year. A Cantor staffer eventually...

In response to the ads being run currently by AFSCME in support of Obama's stimulus plan and highlighting Eric Cantor and the GOP's response to that plan, Cantor's office sent around this "colorful" video. Just how irrelevant can one Virginia Republican be? Ha! Now imagine if you were the trash collector for Cantor's residence and what you could do with that trash instead!
