Hey, everyone? Have you heard the great news?
Things are lookin’ up!
♫La da de dah, la da de dah…happy days are here again!♫
{Continued below the fold}
Why just look at what was said by some very important and highly knowledgeable local elected leaders:
It’s obviously a bright future for #Detroit and I wish @MayorMikeDuggan and the city council well as they face the remaining challenges.

Hey world… #ICYMI: Detroit. Is. Back!

And who can forget the man responsible for the outcome here:
"We have a bright future ahead of us. Let's go get it done." Gov Snyder on Detroit bankruptcy resolution http://t.co/1E0lAEoJxJ

The local talking head shows this morning were also reporting the same rousing news.
Why, yes indeedadoodly-doo! Things are great!
Crime has nearly been eliminated in The D.
Detroit is almost at full employment.
Test scores in DPS have increased exponentially.
DPS graduation rates are nearing 100%.
State colleges are being flooded with application from DPS Alumni (I hear that Jennifer Gratz is besides herself on this).
Teen pregnancy rates/abortions have gone down to practically zero.
Single-parents families are practically nonexistent.
An influx of new residents moving back into local neighborhoods is actually causing a spike in property values.
Public safety has been fully restored.
And…
No, wait!
Don’t take away those Rick Snyder-issued rose-colored glasses. I need them to…
{Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch}
What the…
Nothing has changed?
This is still the same burned-out, shell of a city that the locally elected democrats have destroyed through their gross ineptitude and corruption.
And guess who a federal judge just gave the keys back to on Friday?
Anyone want to takes bets on how long THAT will last?
More on that coming up…
But, but, but... that $195M Nerd/Calley stole from the rest of the state to piss down the drain for RINO Weiser's DIA toy on the Nerd/Baird JonesDay token crony from Ann Arborstan can't be just a Band-Aid....
I understand why 'Team D' gets pissed off with lying f**kers from 'Team R' when their shit had nothing to do with an alleged '300,000 jobs created' when even U of M says Nerd/Calley had next to nothing to do with the assh*le parading around under the 'Team R' umbrella making such claims.
And to think I'm the bad guy in Republican circles for fronting the VoteForGridlock.com website.
The uber-left wing Detroit Free Press endorsed the Snyder/Calley tag team, because while they weren't nearly progressive enough, they are indeed progressive enough to dangle the Elliott-Larson expansion carrot for all to see- and they have significant progressive street cred in GOP drag from the last couple of years.
Wait till you get a load of the next story on the Elliott-Larsen thing.. yeesh..
Lemme guess... it involves a flaky liberaltarian broad and a DeVos bankrolled cupcake?
