More nonsense from Michigan Republicans…

Well…this is going to be a little short one…just wanted to make you guys aware of the nonsense that has been added to the rest of it that has been perpetrated on the people of Michigan by the republican majority. With all of the suffering and joblessness that has spread across out state, we have the repubs in the Michigan senate taking on one thing that will get people back to work…a bill that would require that schoolchildren say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning. Yep, that is going to put thousands back to work…maybe printing the pledge? Are these guys just stupid? There have been numerous court cases, including at least one that reached the Supreme Court, that have held that making the pledge mandatory is against people’s first amendment rights. It just shows the repubs contempt for the law when they are trying to push their far-right agenda on the American people…why do they hate the Constitution so much? Geez…
