“a family and *police* matter.”
It most certainly is beginning to appear that way.

NOTE:
“and unsuccessful candidates for county offices and state legislative offices who were candidates at the last prior regular or special election held for the respective office.”
Tom Backers You ARE an “at large” delegate to the convention in any case…Why not press this issue with your County Chair, who is in violation of State Election law on several levels…
That’s right, ‘the king’ dictates a yes vote.
Enjoy the commercial Rick Snyder has made with taxpayer dollars. All we did was add the funk for all the junk in Lansing’s trunk.
When the bureaucracy cannot (or WILL NOT) tell the difference between an opinion and a directive (express advocacy), no citizen protections are left in play. The Bureau of Elections had already tipped its hand that a denial of my complaint was coming prior to receiving it. The spokesguy Fred Woodhams made that announcement even admitting they had not yet seen it.
How could it possibly be doing its job if it had already made the decision without review of the facts? How could the process be properly run, if the denial of the complaint had to be crafted and spun to fit a predetermined outcome? Strangely enough, Woodhams himself has previously said that no statements about such things should happen prior to review. In 2012:
“Secretary of State Spokesman Fred Woodhams said that the office had received the complaint as of Friday. Woodhams said the Secretary of State’s office does not comment on allegations until they have an opportunity to review it.”
Pretty FUNKY, yes?
Indeed. Something stinks in Lansing, and it ain’t the Red Cedar Drain.
I still recall the day I held my son in my arms, and thought “there is nothing and no-one as beautiful as this boy.” A thought that I carried through well beyond his first temper tantrum, or worst smelly stinky changing. Candy and I have done what we can to guide him, and we couldn’t be happier. He has made us proud, married a smart and beautiful woman, and they have now brought us even greater news.
Candy and I are now celebrating with tears of JOY at the blessing given to us with the birth of our grandson Owen Robert Gillman tonight.
He is a healthy 6 lbs 12 Oz, and seems ready to take on the world. May God bless him, watch over him, and guide him.
Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him. Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are children born in one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their opponents in court.

How about some 1960’s television shows?
50-some years later we watch indoctrinated malcontents drone their, “this is what democracy looks like.”
Must not have got the memo… Butt Sex of America with some Planned Parenthood Sandra Fluke cookie peddlers.
Good God. WTF do you people think when electing these dolts?
I’m getting involved in politics again because that’s where the work has to begin.says @JebBush
