Senate FCU Ad Raises Eyebrows

The Huffington Post is reporting on a “GOT BIG PLANS” ad mailed by U.S. Senate FCU to its members. Some readers may find the ad to be offensive.

Read the story.

  1. Keith,
    It must a slow day on the 'bash CUs' front. I do think the ad lacks good taste and they will have to endure any blowback but it is not worthy of your blog because it doesn't address industry issues.

  2. I debated about publishing this. But when the story appeared in Roll Call and Huffington Post and involved U.S. Senate FCU, it is news.
