WASHINGTON, D.C (WSFA) - A U.S. Senator from Washington state is drawing heat from numerous Alabama representatives after a morning radio interview took aim at Alabama's workforce.

Senator Patty Murray (D-Washington) was interviewed Monday morning on NPR's "All Things Considered" program in regards to the contentious Pentagon contract for a new fleet of refueling tankers.

"I have stood on the line in Everett, Washington," she told NPR," where we have thousands of workers who go to work every day to build these planes. I would challenge anybody to tell me that they've stood on a line in Alabama and seen anybody build anything."

Didn’t Toyota go to AL to build its newest plant and hire people from its workforce? That was just an anti-southern elitist slur from the Senator in Sneakers.

Well, Patty Putz, AL has a fairly robust auto industry, thanks to the greed of Michigan’s greedy UAW members.

And South Carolina will have the new Boeing plant, so you’d better come South to see some manufacturing going on.

Patty needs to go to Montgomery and tour the Hyundai plant.

Why are people so supportive of him [Osama bin Laden] in many countries? He's been out in these countries for decades building roads, building schools, building infrastructure, building day care facilities, building health care facilities, and the people are extremely grateful.

-- Patty "Osama Mama" Murray

'Nuff said.

She is married to Rob Murray and has two grown children.
Someone was actually desperate enough to have sex with this woman!

Maybe she should come down and visit some of the Automobile Assmebly Plants (Which are non-union) or she could visit the construction site of the Thyssen Krupp Steel Mill. What she doesn’t know is that if Boeing wins the competition, they may decide to build the bulk of the planes at their non-union South Carolina Plant instead of the Union one in Washington.

I agree! And all of our auto industry plants are NON-UNION - Alabama is a right to work state. So Patty, go stick some facts where the sun don’t shine.

Patty, I’ve been to Boeing plants in Alabama on business. Man for man, woman for woman, I’d put their workers up against any on earth. Great people, great company, great state.

Patty, please, STFU, mam’am.

Her stupidity shows again. In Alabama, we build everything from induction heat systems to steel to automobiles and everything in between. We build guns, machines, houses and whole plants. We design and build high tech systems of all kinds to farm equipment.
She is full of sh*t. Of course, we know that. Her voters apparently either don’t know that or more likely, don’t care.

I’ll remember this when I go out and start my Alabama assembled Nissan truck this morning... next week it turns over 200K with no issues.

I don’t see this administration allowing this plane to be built in a state without a strong uniion presence.

She’s just ignorant, stupid, uninformed, and opinionated.

Did I mention that she was a democrat?

There are millions who would agree with her. And vote democrat.
