[EL] Check out Unions ready to send volunteers out for Obama | Fox News

[Jerald Lentini]

Jim, all else aside, do you really think the value of an in-kind
contribution is what the person's normal hourly rate doing something
completely different would be, and not the value of the service actually
rendered?

Unless you think a canvassing program that happens outside business hours
should be valued as an in-kind contribution of what the volunteers would
make doing their regular jobs (which are most likely a little more taxing
than knocking on doors), then your snark makes no sense.
