One of those incredibly important races this November is the race to preserve our electoral protections. Keeping a strong Secretary of State is necessary to have a chance against the "vampire like death throes" the Michigan Democrat party is sure to go through. Click HERE if you want to know what I saying..
The Democrats cannot be trusted with such a task as securing our ballots. particularly OAKLAND County DEMOCRATS and their choice Jocelyn Benson. If they will lie to you BEFORE they are elected, surely one would not expect them to be straight up AFTER the fact. The Fake tea party fiasco was a perfect example of the disrespect for voters the Democrats in Michigan truly have. The Secretary of State as their "top of the ticket" Really drives it home. However, money talks, and the forces in play are not merely driven by the apple dumpling gang in Oakland County alone. They have help.. Big Money help.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help. The great election year of 2010.

After all...
We all know cash is king... Or maybe better stated, "FOR Kings.." Contributions to the coffers of political despots often encourages their favors, and the green is the grease of the political wheels. And Dingell, as well as Snyder got plenty of grease to go around. Fact of life.. Bring the king a gift for his pleasure and thou shalt have his dispensation. Snyder loves kings.. In fact he might well fancy himself the "Nerd King" in waiting.. Working his own royal treasury from the peasants, that consummate power player, Rick Snyder must have gifted well enough over time to warrant the investment of $7.5 Million in taxpayer funds to his own business venture; Ardesta. More below the fold.... (2 comments, 647 words in story) Full Story By JGillman, Section News

How could the day slip by without the mention of RMs favorite tax raiser, and his ambition to be top executive of the state of Michigan? Certainly would we not be forgetting to talk about the one, the man, the only speaker EVER to be recalled for removal in Michigan, Mr. Andy Dillon.
It seems as though it was only Months ago, that we were praising the House Speaker for his stand on a state employee health purchasing option.

Just over one year into his presidency, Mr. Obama is finding that true leadership requires more than lofty ideals, eloquent words and rigid partisanship.
