If there was any question relating to the disconnect between the Grassroots and GOP party elites, we are seeing it playing out in real-time right before our eyes.

I’m sorry, but who are you people again?
by KG One • • 1 Comment
I’m a little perplexed.
I don’t know whether or not to shake my head in disgust, or to laugh at the sheer stupidity of these people.
And who might they be, you are asking yourselves right about now?

Prognostications and predictions.

I’m going to keep this one a little short today.
Part of it because I’ve had a very long weekend. Part of it because I’m still going over the actual returns.

More weasel words from Gov. Rick Snyder
by KG One • • 2 Comments
It’s all about the roads!
Remember: It’s about the roads.
Say it with me again so there’s no forgetting: It’s about the roads.
No, it’s not. And I’ve got it straight from the horse’s mouth on why this actually isn’t.

He really must not be looking very hard!
by KG One • • 3 Comments
Don’t bother me. I’m letting people think that I know what I’m doing.
When he’s not busy assuaging his troubled conscience with other people’s money or letting terrorists into Michigan for the very same reason, Gov. Rick Snyder (along with his BFF’s Lil’ Guv Calley, Sen. Meekhof and apparently Speaker Cotter) are still working diligently behind the scenes to shake down Michigan Motorists and businesses to fix the perpetual joke that is Michigan Roads.
I should stress how important the latter is, because the guv’s crew often “forgets” that goods actually get onto those shelves at your local store via truck…not some transporter beam from Star Trek or magical fairies daintily waving their wands.
I also shouldn’t need to remind anyone here of Basic Econ 101, where my boss isn’t going to eat the cost of higher fees & taxes Gov. Snyder & Co. will eagerly impose on him. He (and I’ll venture a guess every other business as well) will pass most, if not all, of that cost along to you.
Just something to keep in mind the next time you run out to your local store for anything.
So where is MDOT flushing more of your hard-earned road funding down the toilet this week?

Feed Me!
I’m hungry! What’s THAT in your wallet?
Thank Goodness that we have the Republican Party doing such an exceptional job overseeing the way our road taxes are being spent.
I’d hate to find out what would ever happen if they didn’t follow through with their fiduciary responsibilities of making sure that everything was spent properly.

Michigan Senate Republicans invoke “leadership” strategy gleaned from watching South Park.
by KG One • • 5 Comments
Just when you thought that things couldn’t get any stranger?
I bet you’re wondering which strategy that is?
Well, wait no longer (Here’s a hint: We’re at Phase 1)

Does anyone really think that the children are ready to be handed the keys?
by KG One • • 1 Comment
If anyone can believe it, this has been kind of an important week for Detroit.
Most of us didn’t expect it would come to this point.
Seeing as how they pretty much broke the all rules to get here explains a lot on how that was really accomplished.
But nonetheless, a ceremonial milestone (albeit unofficial one) was passed.
Now for the all important question; Are the children ready to act responsibly and lead?

It’s done. Stick a fork in her US Senate Campaign.
by KG One • • 6 Comments
In a largely self-funded campaign that has adopted the unique strategy of avoiding contact with the voters as much as humanly possible, the running comedy of the republican-anointed candidate for US Senate had taken yet another hit this week.
And who is jumping ship this time might surprise you.

Prediction: Results for November 4, 2014
by Corinthian Scales • • 3 Comments
You all will see the state GOP apparatchik do a big push for *Bluer* candidates.
Peters “has proven to be an independent voice for Michigan who puts good public policy ahead of partisan gain,” Milliken said in a statement.
Just watch what happens when their self-absorbed “deer in the headlights” fails. My only hope is the other statewide losers on the ballot don’t take down Ruth Johnson, with their marooned pragmatism.
*Oh OK, the real link, here.
