George Allen votes against wage increase but wants you to dig deep for him

In one of his recent fundrising emails, Dress Up George, who at that time had at least $11 million in his presidential - er, I mean Senate campaign coffers, begged for help:

I am relying on you and every friend I have to dig a little deeper than you normally would.

So, he votes against raising the minimum wage - which has been stuck at $5.15 for almost ten years despite rising energy costs and other inflation.  But never mind that - he'd still like his "friends" stuck at minimum wage to "dig deep" for his political ladder climbing.

Man, this guy has no shame.  (And I'm not referring to his penchant for costumes either).

Allen's presidential hopes might be ruined by Webb (Ambivalent Mumblings - 7/6/2006 1:02:52 PM)
Since Allen goes along with almost anything the Republican party advocates, I'm not surprised that he voted against the minimum wage increase.
