1988 - U.S. House of Representatives - Gregory H. (Greg) - Laughlin - "Asparagus"1988-01-01Laughlin, Gregory H. (Greg)http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NKC/1.0/enghttp://congressarchives.org/record/P-1060-43697The 1988 campaign ad for Greg Laughlin lampoons Congressman Max Sweeney's legislative record, humorously highlighting his initiation of trivial national observances as his main achievements. It uses satire and irony to question Sweeney's effectiveness, juxtaposing minor initiatives against the backdrop of national issues, suggesting Sweeney's legislative impact is inconsequential.
