We're making a point people!

Passage of this bill is a victory for our military, which can now implement this change in a deliberate, responsible way. It's a victory for our country, which has taken another step toward living up to our highest ideals. And it is a victory for thousands of brave men and women who now can serve the nation they love without having to conceal part of their identity.

And our senatorial tyrants Carl Levin, and Debbie Stabenow are a part of this plan.

S.510 which failed to get traction BEFORE the election is back on the table, and is expected to gain enough support for a vote on Monday. The bill dubbed the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act is touted by its promoters as a way to promise standard rules for consistency in food production and a means in which government can ensure compliance with those measures.

Like other grand government efforts it has promise of some dire consequence as well.  Mostly for small farms, farmers market participants, local growers, and anyone who cannot afford a team of lawyers ready and able to challenge the best intentions of our benevolent and all protecting federal tyranny.

This morning on detnews.com a particular story originating out of Howell caught my eye.

Phil Letten, a Howell resident who has never met McDowell, started a "Support Jay McDowell" page on Facebook. There are about 440 members of the group, and more than 30 people plan to attend Monday night's school board meeting, Letten said.

"I just found it outrageous and appalling," Letten said of the district's response to the incident. "People in authority are perpetuating a culture of bullying, fear and violence."

• Since the 1990s, courts have posted various records online to manage cases
• more efficiently and provide easier access.


• Victims, jurors and witnesses fear criminals can easily identify and find them. Others worry about identity theft.


• Public information that was once kept in a file cabinet is now available online.


• State and Federal officials need to revamp open records laws now that people's lives have become "digital dossiers".


• People and groups that support and lobby for open records laws usually are doing it for a specific, self-serving reason. Law enforcement doesn't    need people's lives open, they have access to all information they need. The only people that seem to benefit are nosy neighbors, potential predators and criminals who surf the Web for names and ages of children, addresses and the layouts of their homes.


• Many people, by nature, don't have good intentions. People's privacy goes beyond stolen identity. We are now speaking of personal safety.

I will let the reader look up the origin of the term, but the meaning is clear.  Michigan has been betrayed by these "representatives."

Allow me to begin by presenting Michigan's "esteemed" US Senators.

First we have the "you can't replace me, cause Michigan will lose all that seniority" Carl (the Marx) Levin. Serving in the US Senate Has been Tough on Carl.  His net worth? Carl Levin's net worth was between $1,396,019 and $3,091,000 in 2007, according to Levin's mandated financial disclosure statements. Carl has done well for himself and has graciously accepted any PAC money that comes along to pad his overly abundant war chest.  Carl is a "rank and File Democrat, who voted for Bailouts, Health Care, and Carbon initiatives that have cost this state its manufacturing base.

Next, we have Debbie (I can feel global warming when I fly) Stabenow, who has the hand of leftist interest so far up her backside, you can see a ring finger when she opens her mouth to speak.  Even the cookie monster's puppetry is more subtle.  The cookie monster is also smarter.  Stabenow's net worth was between $-50,000 and $-15,001 in 2007, according to Stabenow's mandated financial disclosure statements. Nuff said.

But hey, I get only two Senators to pick on.  Thank you, God.  The remainder of Michigan woes owes a great deal to the following Representatives.

If you though it was bad already be prepared for "bad" multiplied by ___<--Insert large number here.

Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow had an opportunity to stand up for Michigan, and its economic interests, and the jobs of its residents.  They had a chance in a vote held yesterday to say to the EPA, that CO2 is NOT a pollutant to be regulated by the agency, particularly in light of the climate-gate scandal that demonstrates the science was never truly settled. They had a chance to demonstrate they actually are paying attention to those developments showing the climate change "science" to be a fabrication of grant seeking opportunists willing to exchange their souls for a few coins.
