Tag: undermining Michigan and AmericaBy Kevin Rex Heine, Section News
The return address on the envelope is familiar, and it should be, though strangely enough no name (business or person) is provided with it. So far as I can tell, this letter was sent out to the entire voting membership of the Michigan Republican Party state central committee (117 people) . . . at a minimum. If the letter was sent outside that list, and how far outside that list if so, I don't know, nor do I think it much matters at this juncture. What I find disturbing about the letter is the lengths to which a self-proclaimed conservative republican will go in order to advance yet another progressive cause.

You would think that, after the mudhole he had stomped into his keister back at the May state convention, lame-duck National Committeeman Saul Anuzis would understand that we the people are a tad more aware of what's going on politically in our state, especially with regard to stealth initiatives aimed at permanently undermining either our individual liberties, or our constitutional protections against government overreach. Unfortunately, you'd be wrong.
You might then think that I'm referring to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, which Saul has subtly pushed on his blogsite at least four times since the May state convention; either suggesting the possibility of one candidate (perhaps Romney) winning the popular presidential vote while the other (perhaps Obama) wins the Electoral College, or suggesting the possibility of an Electoral College tie. Never-you-mind the reality that, according to Nate Silver of FiveThirtyEight, the statistical likelihood of the former is currently either 2.0% or 3.2% (depending on which way the inconsistency breaks), and of the latter is currently 0.3%. You'd be wrong there, too. No, Saul has a whole other trick up his sleeve this time around, and a whole different progressive cause that he's advocating for.
