Apparently, someone at MIGOP didn't get the memo.

The following information is being disseminated via The Michigan Republican Party Fusion Center. The information contained within should not to be shared with any outside parties or individuals.

I highly recommend cracking open a case of Monster Heavy Metal before watching. You'll need it way before this clip ends.

Seriously, you need notes to tell people about YOUR OWN RECORD?

Now, contrast the above to this:

OK, I present: Exhibit A, which spreading bogus information should be bad enough considering he's a Lefty Progress Michigan digital media "operative".  Ooooo, spooky.  Now, for a second dose of well deserved butt-hurt I present Joshua's buddy as Exhibit B, which really goes to illustrate what mindless, regurgitating lemmings those on the Left truly are.  Reagan invented the EITC?  #FAIL.  It was Lefty Democrat Senators Russell Long and Lloyd Bentsen who rammed through that disgusting wage subsidy for the "working poor" into 1975 tax code.  Even a simple search on IRS.gov clearly states that.  Attributing the EITC to Ford, or that Big Government Moderate idiot Nixon who inspired the Negative Income Tax scheme is fair game as far as I'm concerned.  But, hanging the creation of the "free lunch" EITC on Reagan?  No.  That is a lie.

Progressives.  For those that are unaware, Russell Long's father, Huey Long, was the original "wealth redistribution" and "tax the rich" Kingfish from Louisiana way before our two Twitter trolls or their Obamessiah were an itch in their papa's pants.  

Yet, it is folk on the Left today like Joshua, and Kevin, who dare call themselves something with the word progress in it?  Another #FAIL.  When has The Left ever changed?  They are Socialists, and dimwit ones at that.

A Time For Choosing.

"We have so many people who can't see a fat man standing beside a thin one without coming to the conclusion the fat man got that way by taking advantage of the thin one. So they're going to solve all the problems of human misery through government and government planning."

That 1964 Speech sure makes as much sense today as it did then.  Nancy Classless is as wrong to hand out "free lunch" EITC in Michigan, as Gerald Ford was on March 29, 1975.  

"Well, the trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so."

"About 25 Wayne and Oakland County GOP leaders and elected officials huddled Wednesday at the Suburban Collection Showplace to coalesce around one candidate. About 11 members reunited Thursday at a hotel to interview the possible write-in candidates the party could get behind, Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson said."

...

"The confab was necessary, Patterson said, because the party can't get behind Bentivolio, the Republican who made the Aug. 7 primary ballot. Bentivolio raises reindeer and launched his candidacy to challenge McCotter on issues like government spending and borrowing.

"While there is an individual on the ballot, the people deserve a choice, and that shouldn't be an accidental choice," Cassis said."

Wow!  

No, scratch that.

 "Wow!" Doesn't even begin to describe the level of hubris and arrogance displayed by the Republican kakistocracy on this one.

These people know what running for office entails.

They know how, where, and most importantly, when the process takes place.

To even imply that they couldn't have gotten involved in the race simply reeks of gross competence for a person of their station.

And on top of that; they felt the "need" for multiple, secret close door meetings.

And only one member had the integrity to step forward and actually admit that they were actually there.

What's even worse yet?

"Patterson said Bentivolio's priorities were too extreme for him to accept." - The Detroit Free Press, June 7, 2012

And this is compared to...
