The Other Shady Bunch

What perfect timing to have us some Wayne County Jail indictments.
Jail contractor Walbridge Aldinger was selected over objections from contractors who complained the process favored the company. Its CEO, John Rakolta, served on a board of a nonprofit led by Mullin that was paying her a $75,000 bonus atop her $200,000 salary from the county.
Nah… nothing to see here, here, here, or here.
Move along rank-and-file Romney/Rakolta cult Party sheeple.
Bahahahahahahahahaha!

Of Course Duggan Would

Who couldn’t see something like this coming from Mike Duggan?
“Today I decided to endorse Warren Evans for Wayne County executive,” Duggan said in a statement. “Of all the candidates, Warren Evans is the one with whom I can best partner to do the job you elected me to do in the city of Detroit.”
Yep. Alien vs Predator with a dash of coverup agenda succession. Nevertheless, if ones politics are inline within the Democratic Party, the powers that be will surround, embrace, protect, and nurture…

Hellooooo, John Rakolta

“You’ve heard of the bridge to nowhere? Welcome to the jail for no one.”
Told ya. You’re getting warmer, Ross. However, that jail for no one will be gobbled up by Dan Gilbert for pennies on the dollar.
And, you’ve got a whole gaggle of MI-GOP bootlickers who watched Rakolta line his pockets, main one being, the State AG. Next question would reasonably be, what did the wife of former State AG (Commissioner Laura Cox) know, and when did she know it?

Troubles Ahead For The Michigan Romney Campaign?
by Corinthian Scales • • 1 Comment
Will the FBI turn up improprieties surrounding Mitt’s National Finance Co-Chairmen, John Rakolta?
Could the questions that now surround the Wayne County Business Development Corporation be a factor? Who really knows for sure where this whole mess will lead.
Sure are some strange bedfellows though…

Hmmmm, and it was just on October 18 we all went through this.
“People expect the FBI to step in and do their job, but I would also say it’s possibly a missed opportunity for this state government and for us in Lansing to have shown that there is something that is there in our state that needs some looking in to, that we be willing to do it,” said Olumba.
Indeed Rep. Olumba. Hey, you know something Rep. Olumba, I was just thinking that maybe what happened to your request is…
No. Not saying. Just saying… what if?
