Couldn’t help thinking about this today:
From about a week ago – a right-winger whining about ALEC
being picked on and he wrote:
The New Hampshire branch of the liberal wing-nut industry is anchored by Granite State Progress. Their current obsession is the
American Legislative Exchange Council, or ALEC.
ALEC invites members of state
legislatures to go to conferences, eat hotel food, sit through PowerPoints, and
share legislative ideas.
Oh my – those ALEC members are going to be forced to EAT
HOTEL FOOD.
forced to EAT HOTEL FOOD
forced - - - - - - to EAT HOTEL FOOD
Well – a couple of weeks ago – I posted the sponsorships ALEC was looking for their annual meeting – before they had a chance to yank
them from their webpage (yes I have screen shots).
Two of the sponsorships they were looking for were:
Refreshment
Breaks - $5,000
Luncheon Sponsors
- $50,000
How come so much – after all this is JUST HOTEL FOOD.
WELL
The hotel where ALEC corporate member lobbyists will be
wining and dining your ALEC state legislators in August – is the
Palmer House Hilton in Chicago.
