Let's say you're a parent with four kids. You talk a lot to two of them and basically ignore the other siblings.

What kind of parent would you be?

How 'bout, not very good.

Governor Rick Snyder has four folks in the legislature that he deals with. It turns out he is meeting quite often with the two GOP legislative leaders but in the past year, according to the legislative Democratic leaders, they have met with him and the other two GOP leaders only twice. That's right two times. They claim that's not enough.

"We need to have the chance, without an agenda, to just yell a teach other," advises one of the "children" who has not talked much to his "dad."    

Rest here

So Tim, what Democrat agenda has changed one iota since the disastrous reign of Granholm?    Besides that fact, every self-respecting decent parent knows that you don't reward spoiled brat temper-tantrum behavior with attention.

Dragging pandering grandpa Bill into this isn't going to help you either.

Relentless Positive Action is a sissified way of saying "I don't want confrontation with labor" by Mr Snyder.

No one expected Rick Snyder, the left of center Republican governor to EMBRACE Right To Work, but at some points, in order to continue getting support for his other pet projects he has said [privately] he will "sign if it comes to his desk."  The outward warning now, is to make sure that doesn't happen, or at least to buy him some time until this years election removes a Republican majority from the state house. A loss NOT due to conservative action, but that which has capitulated to the non conservative participation with the governor's agenda. Skubick opines:

"Some Republicans are taking the risk and ignoring their governor's pleas to leave this alone because they can't help it. Now that they have hefty majorities in both the House and Senate, some believe it will help to cement their own re-elections with conservative voters back home. Plus they've been itching for years to do it."

The majorities exist now, and may not again, unless the Republicans embrace that which brought them there.  A strong conservative message coupled by bold action that will help workers in this state face down the liberal leftist labor elements that handicap it in the global marketplace. Snyder's reinvention of picking winners can hardly match the strength of policy that encourages naturally, the strong development of vibrant business in Michigan.

One needs to remember that much of the success and wealth accumulated by this executive office holder was done so as the result of government-business partnerships.
