PROTEST ROMNEY'S TAXPAYER FUNDED CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT

Meet us in front of the State House at 5pm today after work to take a stand against Romney's wasteful 13 person, $350,000 taxpayer funded presidential campaign team.

As seen this week in The Boston Globe; this ridiculous group of glorified make-up artists work full-time to try to make Mitt Romney look more like a prime-time presidential wanna-be than the governor that he is—all on our taxpayer money. Each has an ear piece like the Secret Service, only instead of a gun they are armed with a state funded credit card that has bought (among other things):

· a round-trip vacation to the Olympics in Athens , Greece

· 33 out-of-state presidential campaign trips in 57 days

· $2,904 on cars including four-day rental of a Lincoln Navigator

· and our personal favorite – a trip to attend the Super Bowl!

When Democrat Michael Dukakis was governor he took the T—not a motorcade—to work and when he traveled to events he had the help of one staffer who was also his driver.

Come meet in front of the state house to tell Movie Star Mitt Romney that we refuse to pay for his presidential campaign, and that we'd rather have 13 new Massachusetts teachers, firefighters or police officers than 13 makeup artists!

Make your own sign, or get one there. We'll see you soon!
