It’s good to see the folks over at Michigan Capitol Confidential are finally addressing this.
State Budget Has Increased Almost $5 Billion the Past Three Years
Click on the linked headline above. Read Mr. Gantert’s article. Let that sink in, Boobus Michiganderus. You are getting the government in Lansing that you voted for, and getting it good and hard. Snyder started from the path paved by Mike Bishop’s State Income Tax Increase in 2007 (how anyone could even considers sending this to an already dysfunctional D.C. is amazing), of which, Lansing’s current Republican Majority violated it’s roll down back to 3.9%, then doubled down on Democrat-lite with a 5% pension confiscation, which has netted Lansing results of a minimum 10+ Billion leaving the state. Yes, the reason a particular RightMi.com Tag is born.
Do I think J-man is accurate in his assessment that folks are overwhelmed by Snyder’s relentless and completely repulsive Democrat-lite agenda? Damn right I believe there’s a good majority of us who are suffering burnout. I know that I’m sure as Hell tired of Slick Rick, his Chicago Democrat *adviser*, and his Obama-love for Growing Dependency, baiting illegal alien gatecrashers (Let this sink in), and fellating Bedouin moon pagans (they’re “national treasures,” don’tchya know?). Enjoying Snyder’s vision of us on the Home Team sent to the back of the bus? No, didn’t think you did. Problem is that most folks are busy just trying to raise their families, get in a few smiles and laughs along the journey of Life 101, and don’t have the time to bird dog the Ruling Class on both sides of the alleged different sides of the political aisle in this state. Nevertheless, what folks elected to Lansing in 2010, is an Executive Office that is ran by a crony capitalist agenda of Big Government solutions, a corporate snake that you were warned about.
You’re working as debt-slaves for the Government Store, Boobus Millennial Michiganders. Enjoy a future of less than your predecessors.
As I’ve stated before, if it weren’t for Ruth Johnson, I’d stay home in November. That also applies to Pettallia, and Stamas. Mrs. Terri Hibma? Forgettaboutit. Not interested in her dimwit opinions and blatant pandering to perversion, either.
Fact.

Ruth is the 'top of the ticket' IMHO.
At the risk of being severely slammed, the hell with it. There is not a dime's worth of difference between Snynerd and Golden Schauer--taxes, check; fees, check; more DNR Brownshirts, check; more dollars for public education and failing cities, check & check; and on and on, checkity check.
Land......everything that is said against her by the thoughtful people who posit here, probably all true. The thing is, we also know as thoughtful people that Gary Peters is a communist and guaranteed vote for some vile leftist to replace Ruth Buzzy Ginsburg on the Supreme Court where many of our rights dangle by a precarious thread. IF by some fluke the GOP takes control of the Senate, and IF by chance Mao-al-obama puts up a vile leftist to replace Buzzy,, or to replace other retirements and tilt the court irretrievably to the left, is it possible that a senator Land would be more likely to vote against such appointments? Would a senator Peters?
We are pretty much assured that the governor's office is a lost cause. We know that Land is less than desirable, but is Peters the better choice under the circumstances? I think we need to very carefully assess the impact of a crappy situation. No question that the MIaGOP has again dealt us a shiitey hand.
Mark, rest assured that you will not be slammed be me on here. By others? I can't speak for that, however, if anything is directed to/at you that I find mind-numbingly offensive - you are guaranteed that I will shitcan their comment.
Look, I get where you're coming from. I posed the same question when the establishment threw their money behind Pete TARPstra. What does TARPstra do? Pete comes out and doubles down on stupid. That is what I call an genuine asshole in my book. I'm glad Pete lost, and that all the dipshits wringing their hands over "coronations" throughout 2012 ended up shooting themselves in the ass.
Now, here comes along, Terri Hibma. What has she done to inspire any confidence that she isn't Gary Peters lite? Was it that she countered and confronted the Nerd "Take a vote, not a vacation" Tour for Snydercaid expansion? Nope. Terri was as quiet as a mouse shitting on a piece of cotton.
Going back a little further on Mrs. Hibma's record of positions, let's discuss that great "constitutional" choice she made by choosing to be Bouchard's Lt. in 2010. Hailstorm, and defenseless unarmed citizens trapped in Criminal Enterprise Zones. Just a gottdam brilliant choice there, Terri.
And, if somehow Terri is sent to D.C., she will toe Mush McConnell's line 'cause she is already indentured to the obnoxious bastard that this dickhead and his despicable family helped defeat a Conservative primary challenger in Kentucky.
Bottom line for me, and it is not a slam against you or, a slam at anyone else for that matter - I am done with this voting the lessor of two evils bullshit. My position? F**k 'em all. Only one vote will be cast by me this November, and that vote is for Ruth Johnson.
We all gotta do what we gotta do, yannow?
CS, You're right. They have all let us down. I think Land is less awful then the communist, but only by millimeters.
Yep.
Now, back to cruising the lake...
