Emmer on Wage Cuts: The Video Doesn’t Lie
GOP candidate lashes out at media while trying to spin his plans to cut wages, but tracking video tells the truth
St. Paul (July 13, 2010) - In his many attempts to spin his plans to cut wages for servers, Tom Emmer is blaming the media and saying they wrongly reported his comments. But the video doesn't lie.
The DFL Party today released the tracking video from Emmer's event last week where he repeatedly talked about the need for a tip penalty and at no time mentioned a "freeze" as he is now claiming.
"Tom Emmer is simply not telling the truth," said DFL spokesperson Donald McFarland. "He can try to spin it however he'd like, but lashing out at the media will not change the fact that he wants to cut wages. The video doesn't lie."
