From the Gdansk Lenin Shipyards to the city of the Back of the Yards, Lech Walesa, former President of Poland, and preeminent community organizer, attended a fundraiser on Friday, January 29, to endorse Adam Andrzejewski (an gee eff skie) who is one of six Republicans seeking the nomination of his party for Governor of Illinois.
Walesa , who led trade union strikes in Poland in the early 1980s, managed to bring about needed economic and political change for laborers without resorting to violence.

excellent idea

Lech is a REAL man deserving of respect. This is someone Obama SHOULD bow to.
Same for here in Pittsburgh. We even have a part of town called “Polish Hill”.
And we have a real life conservative running against Spector. Hey Lech, Come to the Burgh and stump for Toomey. He aint Polish, but he knows what he is doing.
