The Cucking Stool: ALEC’s fingerprints all over the Minnesota Capitol

Thanks to The Cucking Stool for this post and video (from Thursday, January 19, 2012):

Common Cause of Minnesota has been dusting for prints, and it has found ALEC’s on more than fifty (I think around sixty, actually, at last count) bills offered in the Minnesota Legislature. ALEC is the American Legislative Exchange Council. The ALEC website calls ALEC an “individual membership” organization, but as you will hear in this video from Mike Dean, that is hardly the case.
