Frank Foster Explains How Concern Over Common Core Is Just Silly.
Tea folk in the 107th district should know that Frank Foster no longer needs you.
He pretty much has said as much. To him, you are searching for something that will make you “relevant.” (his words) That is your goal now since the ACA is the ‘law of the land’ and all. And since you have lost THAT battle, common core is the way you want to flex your political muscle.
Oh, and he expects to be speaker of the house next legislative session.

When Rulers Play, and the Rights They Slay
by Bos Bos • • 5 Comments
Are Michigan courts so easily compromised?
I want to put a finer point on recent activities seen in the judicial system of the banana republic of Michigan.
While observing the actions of Asst AG Harry Martin just prior to him throwing in the State’s towel on the Mark Baker case, the untrained eye easily recognized the disdain being heaped upon a private citizen in a courtroom.
But there was considerably more on display, and I’d like to point it out to you.
All attorneys are required to live and work in accordance with a Code of Ethics. The Code is written, very specific, and well-known to all who have passed the bar exam, and to many who did not. At no time is an attorney allowed to address another attorney’s client without the express permission of the clients attorney, and it must also be in the presence of the client’s attorney so the client is protected.

Friday Film Fest – 104th District State Representative Forum/Debate
by Jason • • 1 Comment
Apologies for the video and sound quality, but the decision to do the video was somewhat last minute.
On Monday, two of the GOP contenders for the 104th State Rep District; Rob Hentschel and Karen Renny, introduced themselves and answered some questions in a bit of a debate format. There were two others, Larry Inman, and Jamie Callahan who were otherwise too busy or occupied to attend this important first stage in the Northern Michigan race.
The debate was facilitated by the Traverse Bay Area Republican Women’s Club at the Park Place hotel in Traverse City.
Have a great weekend! The Video is below.

Is It Possible For The State To Make This Right?
Mark Baker and his family were terribly wronged.
Period.
It was his courage to stand up against the formerly unimaginable wanton persecution by state agencies like the (feral) DNR and the AG’s office. IT was the support of people who were aware of what was going on that allowed him to survive, and cause the Attorney General’s office to fold under the weight of a huge, easily recognizable, mistake. It was his willingness to suffer the loss of business as the state threatened his customers, and cut off his sole income.
And all throughout this process other farms were shut down and forced to slaughter their livelihoods because they had no means to fight ‘city hall.’

KrisAnne Hall In Michigan
by Jason • • 3 Comments
There is enough going on that should make folks wonder whether our government is operating legally and under the framework it is supposed to be operating under.
To clear things up, KrisAnne Hall is sharing her wealth of knowledge with the curious and concerned in Michigan in a series of can’t miss seminars. (Scheduled appearances to the right and below) There are few people who understand the United States Constitution better than KrisAnne Hall. From her site bio:
KrisAnne Hall is an attorney and former prosecutor, fired after teaching the Constitution to TEA Party groups – she would not sacrifice liberty for a paycheck. She is a disabled veteran of the US Army, a Russian linguist, a mother, a pastor’s wife and a patriot. She now travels the country and teaches the Constitution and the history that gave us our founding documents.
KrisAnne Hall does not just teach the Constitution, she lays the foundations that show how reliable and relevant our founding documents are today.
She presents the “genealogy” of the Constitution – the 700 year history and five foundational documents that are the very roots of American Liberty.
One cannot properly understand or interpret the Constitution without a firm grasp of its very foundation.

And So It Begins
by Jason • • 10 Comments
Its hard not to be suspicious in this new era of selective federal enforcement.
I have made the point more than once that your county Sheriff is the ultimate authority as the highest elected law enforcement official in the county.
Sheriffs throughout Michigan have made statements acknowledging this, and further, have pledged to protect the citizens in their counties from otherwise unenforceable actions of the federal government. Actions which require the participation of the sheriff to even happen. Sheriff Leaf is on the list of those Sheriffs who have pledged their support to the 2nd amendment.
It seems the government doesn’t like the kind of Sheriff who thinks that way however.
Michigan State Police confirm to 24 Hour News 8 that the FBI raided the Barry County Sheriff’s Department.
Four FBI cars were parked outside the Barry County Sheriff’s Office in Hastings Wednesday morning.
But Barry County Sheriff Dar leaf, with his associations might have dropped a bit of a challenge a while back that stuck in someone’s craw.

The Rural Michigan Squeeze
by Jason • • 0 Comments
It took a little time for it to sink in, but Michigan’s legislature may have made the same mistake with ATT, that was made with BCBS.
Consider the decades of [government enforced] monopoly protections and the ability to hang their lines exclusively prior to deregulation. A compact that allowed ATT to profit heavily through its stand alone status, was then modified to ATT’s desires during the breakup of the bell system in 1974. Also consider the effects on small rural operators that rely on ATT for service access.
