Rick Snyder outsources another job Michigan has four gubernatorial campaigns worth of unemployed Republican flacks. Does famous nerd Rick “Michigan” Snyder hire any of them? Nope. He’s outsourcing work to Democrat Chris DeWitt, genius behind A Whole Lotta People Supporting John Cherry. This is what Lansing anger bear Virg Bernero warned us about. It starts with Michigan Democrats, next he’ll... Read more→

Free the DPS Four! Noted neo-fascist despot Robert “Bob” Bobb and his jack-booted lackey Kym Worthy launched a full-scale assault upon the sacred right of local control of the Detroit Public Schools, and by extension, the entire diaspora of oppressed peoples. They unjustly indicted Gwendolyn Miller, Eugenia Rose Holimon, Eric Holimon, and Robert Gibson spent DPS money without submitting to bourgeois-capitalist-suburbian... Read more→

Michigan employers have high standards You people probably still think getting a job is easy. Scrape through high school or get your equivalency, and your old man can get you in at the plant. Look losers, it doesn’t work that way anymore. Because Asians with better math skills will do the same work as you for less money. And they won’t call in “sick” every time they have twelve beers while... Read more→

Socialist federal government hurts Frank Beckmann’s feelings The Great Voice of Great Lakes Pollution, Frank Beckmann, will not like reading about this. Assuming he possesses the cognitive capacity to read. The government won’t let the God-fearing, patriotic job creators at Enbridge Oil re-open their beloved oil pipeline. Even though said pipeline generously donated oil to the rivers and streams... Read more→

Michigan’s Grand Old Party about to get crazy up in here Probably you public radio-listening, cage-free organic egg-eating French hippies thought Michigan avoided the tea party crazy because famous nerd Rick “Michigan” Snyder won the Republican nomination. Fools. The teabaggers will probably control the GOP convention this weekend. A teabagger even beat the state GOP chairman in a delegate race.... Read more→

Rick Michigan makes terribly unimportant choice There is nothing more important than selecting a running mate. Except for almost anything else. But we like to make a big deal when gubernatorial or presidential nominees make their pick because, well, because they usually do it in August and nothing else is going on. Snyder tapped 33-year-old Brian Calley to be his running mate. No one knows much about... Read more→

Today’s the day the teddy bears have their picnic The Michigan Tea Party party is as poorly executed as any political dirty trick since Gordon Liddy didn’t train Cubans to properly tape a door-latch. Leave aside that everyone attached to this farce is connected to the Democrats or the UAW. Forget they’re the most secretive political party since Millard Fillmore attempted a comeback. Just... Read more→

Journalism gets punched in the face again The good people at Detroit’s dailies are taking another pay cut. And rumors are swirling that Gannett will sell the Free Press to the outfit (I forget their name) that owns the News. Then they’ll cut more jobs and replace actual reporting with mom blogs. Maybe they’ll even shutter a whole paper. Pretty soon there will be no actual journalism left. Just... Read more→

Lame duck governor rides out the clock Jennifer Granholm is super busy waiting for someone to give her a better job. After eight years in the governor’s mansion, she is so over Lansing. Granholm can’t wait until she’s out of boring state government because, in the federal bureaucracy or corporate America, she won’t waste time with stupid junk like “balancing the budget.” As for her final... Read more→
