When President Obama came to Madison to rally his base, members of UW-Madison’s Young Americans for Liberty chapter were also there to hold him accountable.
"Get your programs here!" shouted activist students as they handed out 1500 brightly yellow colored pieces of literature that were designed to show the humor in the day’s events. The pages had a mock schedule of the speech highlights, including:
- Obama explains magic economics and how government printing funny money and running up trillion dollar debt brings prosperity to the people.
- Obama gets done speaking and you suddenly realize that unemployment is 17%, total US debt is $4 trillion...and none of his promises have come true.
Students waiting in line to see President Obama eagerly took the programs -- making YAL's event a great success.
