Protestors Greet Big Names in GOP At Golf Fundraiser in Wayzata




Big names in the GOP tee'd off today at a high-buck golf fundraiser in Wayzata after they were confronted by protestors.
Organizers say more than 100 Minnesotans who are unemployed, connected with low-income and minority communities and the activist group "Minnesotans for a Fair Economy" used puppets, signs and chants to get the attention of the politicians.
In a press release, the group said House Speaker John Boehner, Rep. Michele Bachmann, Rep. Erik Paulsen, Rep. John Kline and Rep. Chip Cravaack hosted the $10,000 a person golf tournament fundraiser at the Wayzata Country Club.
Protestors say they believe these republicans are pushing "radical" budget cuts that will "kill" jobs.
