Temp worker outraged at Nader petition drive
Temp worker outraged at Nader petition drive

By Joe Adler

<snip>

"I don’t consider myself a political person at all - I try to steer clear of all of that because it’s disunifying," said Sawka, a resident of Kittery, Maine. "But I needed the work."

But Sawka threw up her hands altogether upon discovering that Adecco, an international temp agency that has an office in Portsmouth, had hired her out to a consulting firm with Republican ties.

The firm, Sawka learned, was trying to get Nader on the New Hampshire ballot in November, in a roundabout effort to help get President Bush re-elected in November.

Sawka, 25, and six other workers hired through Adecco were directed to show up on Friday morning at Shaw’s supermarket in Stratham, near the dairy farm where Bush was to speak to supporters at a picnic that afternoon. She was given a clipboard and a script instructing her to tell those at the rally: "Without Nader, Bush would not be president."

1. It's this kind of crap that makes Nader such a tool
He knows he's getting support from the GOP just so he can be a spoiler AND HE DOESN'T CARE!!! What an egomaniacal whore!

2. "Without Nader, Bush would not be president."
I've heard that many times before, right here at DU.
