    Who are the NERD fund donors Mr Snyder?

    Raise the curtain.

    I Agree With JoAnn Watson

    She's right with being upset.  Why are Washington Democrats running away from their Socialist, and moral vision?

    By current calculations, Detroit faces obligations over the next six months that exceed its revenues by $47 million. The city, the Free Press reported, now pays $1.08 in benefits to municipal workers and retirees for every $1.00 it pays in salary.

    What happened to Detroit? It is achieving socialism in one city.

    Traditional two-parent families and the productive taxpaying citizens they produce have fled. In 1950, according the U.S. Census Bureau, Detroit had 1,849,568 people and was the fifth-largest city in the nation. By 2000, its population had dropped to 951,270; by 2010, to 713,777; and by 2011, to 706,585.

    What has happened to the people who remain? The Census Bureau estimates there are 563,055 people age 16 or older in the city who could potentially work and be part of the labor force. But only 54.3 percent of these -- or 305,479 individuals -- actually do participate in the labor force, meaning they either have a job or are looking for one.

    Another 257,576 of Detroit residents age 16 or older - 45.7 percent of that demographic - do not participate in the labor force. They do not have a job, and they are not looking for one.

    Rest HERE

    Mr. Preezy was just in town stirring the goonion pot with his stutter spoon, so where is JoAnn's perpetual need for rashers of others bacon?

    Perhaps, this being so close to home, Senator Levin, should explain this to the good people of Michigan.

    Levin isn't going to retire.

    They're going to wheel both of them off of the Senate (and House) floor in a stretcher.

    But he'd better come up with a handy batch of excuses on why he isn't bailing out Detroit.

    Even though he still had no campaign presence whatsoever and got beaten like a government mule at their only debate before the last election, the useful idiots that have left Detroit and moved out to the 'burbs have already voted him in another time.

    that pile of trash levin retires.  But the chances of replacing him with someone good like, perhaps, Justin Amash, are probably worse than the heat miser doing a playboy shoot. (I can't believe I just wrote that!)

    I don't know much about Bill Schuette (sorry) but Peters is a turd.

    I guess I'm just rambling but can there be any hope for a state that elects and re-elects the likes of levin and the heat miser?

    I say repeal the 17th amendment but that's another story.
