"I'm Just Like Bush"

(Metropolitan Washington Council, AFL-CIO)
“Every place I go,” Senator and Presidential candidate John McCain said recently, “there are AFL-CIO protestors saying I’m a Bush continuation with the war, etc…well, I am.” Labor activists will gather outside a high-dollar fundraiser for McCain tonight to highlight his support of President Bush’s economic agenda, including flawed trade deals like the one Bush is proposing this week with Colombia.  As part of the AFL-CIO’s national  “McCain Revealed” campaign, DC workers will call on McCain to stand up to the corporate interests that are pushing trade deals which hurt America's workers and exacerbate workers’ and human rights abuses abroad.
