Fiery union speech!
Recorded at Brewer, Maine on July 4, 2006
With the annual 4th of July celebration at the Eastern Maine Labor Council rapidly approaching, it’s a good time to re-watch the video of the incredible oratory AFL-CIO organizer Stuart Acuff gave at this event in 2006. 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
