Tag: Michigan Tea Party Patriot NetworkBy Kevin Rex Heine, Section News
Just in case you've forgotten, there is a special primary election taking place in the old 11th Congressional District about a week from now. According to the Official Michigan Special Primary Candidate Listing, this is going to be a non-issue for the democrats, as David Curson is unopposed. The republican side of that ballot, however, is the entire reason for next week's special election in the first place. And that's just what the mischief-makers on both sides are probably counting on.

I have more than once on this site cited a paraphrase of John F. Kennedy's warning: Those who insist on making a peaceful takeover impossible will ultimately make a takeover by revolt inevitable, and perhaps even necessary. Since we cannot seem to trust the blueblood elites in the establishment to get the message, let's go below the fold and discuss an idea to "grease the skids" for their removal from power.

Just so that we can continue to show Nancy Cassis a little attention here on RightMichigan, let me draw your attention to a little scheme to put taxpayers on the hook for boneheaded decisions made by their local governments, specifically with regard to labor agreements.

Facts are quite stubborn things, really. As I've mentioned elsewhere on this site, the pesky thing about having a publicly available record is that, sooner or later, you're going to get called on it. Getting called on her record is exactly what happened last night to Nancy Cassis at the monthly Rattle With Us meeting in Plymouth.

I have, my entire adult life, desired to accomplish one thing above all others. Beyond what normal men might find worth aspiring to, I have always wanted to win one when it really mattered. To just once be the guy it all rides on when it's on the line . . . and deliver the goods. To slay the dragon, save the world, and get the girl . . . film at eleven. To, for one moment in time, have my "A game" firing on all cylinders . . . and be utterly unstoppable.
However, God, in his wisdom, has heretofore seen fit to withhold from me such success . . . until last weekend.

You may recall that, a couple of days ago, I mentioned the initial Dave Agema endorsement list. I'd like to point out that not only has that list expanded considerably, but that expansion includes one very high-profile "get" that ought to, in my opinion, qualify as a major indicator of the intentions of the tea party insurgency for the Republican Party apparatus.

Break out your ever-handy Michigan Highway map and any random dark-colored Sharpie marker. Using a steady hand, trace the Sharpie along the I-69 corridor, from the Bluewater Bridge all the way through Kinderhook Township. In so doing, you've just drawn the major battle line of the Anuzis vs. Agema contest for the office of Michigan's Republican National Committeeman.

The noun decimation, as it is currently used, refers to something causing either great destruction or harm, or a drastic or extreme reduction in population numbers. However, the source verb, decimate, originates from the Latin decimare (removal of a tenth), which in the Roman Legions was a common form of punishment meted out upon mutinous or cowardly soldiers. Those selected for punishment would be divided into groups of ten, and the soldier in each group upon whom the lot fell would be summarily executed on the spot. The message to the remaining nine was clear: get your asses back in line, or join him.
I'm not sure if it's mutineers or cowards that we're dealing with here (or maybe just a highly contagious epidemic of either weak upper spine syndrome or cranial-rectal inversion disorder), but no matter how you slice it, some high-velocity shoe polishing seems to be in order.
