From Congressman Emanuel Cleaver's Facebook page. This man is a treasure.



This morning I went grocery shopping with Alison, a local mother, student, and worker on minimum wage. It has been 3 long years since workers saw a federal minimum wage increase. Since then, nearly everything has increased but the minimum wage: the price of milk, the price at the pump, the cost of a college education. That's why I'm a cosponsor of the Fair Minimum Wage Act. Like if you think it's time to raise the minimum wage.

That's why I won't ever be posting anything on any romney/ryan/rand/bush/boner/palin etc sites. Because I can't bring myself to declare any sort of "like" for them, even when it's merely a Facebook click.
