Just a few things….

Well…I just hate it when these smug billionaires buy themselves legislation and then strut around like they are kings of the world…just like the idiot Dick DeVos did yesterday after he and the Kochs bought themselves the right to work law here…but, I have news for these guys, their days of doing whatever they want are numbered….go ahead, gloat like hell for the next two years but when we throw your bought and paid for legislators out and repeal all of the nonsense that is being passed you will never have the power to take and take and take from workers again….it is coming so smile that smarmy smile one more time…it just energizes the people to take this state back from your ilk….geez…

A message to independents here in Michigan…

Well….with all of the furor and the shenanigans going on here in Michigan driven by the repubs…I have one message to the independents who elected ole Snyder to office and believed he would do what was right for all of Michigan and not just the Kochs and DeVoses….REPUBLICANS LIE! They lied in Wisconsin, they lied in Indiana, they lied in Ohio, and they continue to lie that they have the workers in mind with their right to work nonsense…remember that in the next election if you have any thought of voting for another one of the wholly-owned corporate party here. These guys do not give a damn about you but they will lie to you and use you to get elected and then stab you in the back as fast as they get to Lansing. The one thing you have to know about ole Snyder’s explanation of why he pushed these bills was that the even the repubs on “Morning Joe” eviscerated him on the nonsense that these bills will benefit workers…they went so far to laugh at ole Snyder when he tried to trot out the ALEC talking points…this is what you independents have given us…making our wonderful Michigan no different than Alabama or Mississippi and we are now the laughing stock of the country….vote these idiots out in 2014 so we can start to take our state back from the billionaires that just want more and more and more for themselves and do not give a damn about anyone else….geez…

The 6% solution…

Well…have been sitting here stewing about the liar Snyder here in Michigan and his betrayal of our state and the workers here….in this whole mess, a new fact popped up in the news tonight about a poll that was taken over the past few days on how much support this labor attack law has…when the question was asked if people supported this new law, only 6% of the people said they wanted something like this passed…only 6%…so how can Snyder sit there and lie through his teeth saying that most of the people want this? Just another instance where the Kochs and DeVos’s have purchased a legislature and whose voices count for more that the people who actually work here…..I am getting excited for 2014…we will take back this state and return it to the path of a labor/management cooperation where the workers share in the profits that derive from their labor and have a true voice in their lives…geez…
