michiganians voted all these clowns in. now we whine. please. 2014, hah. michigan state politics has always been right wing even with democratic governors. too many outstate bigots.

I tried to warn friends of mine who fell for the 'moderate' act that a person who will not reveal a platform and refuses to debate is hiding something.

I was right.

To see my wonderful state, a leader in the labor movement sink to this low is almost more than I can bear.

I just think the larger urban centers were uninspired by that entire gubernatorial election. I remember a distinct feeling that the entire state was sleep walking throughout. I had a Bernero sticker on my car, a sign on my lawn. But I never got the feeling anybody cared. I further wondered about the state of Michigan media.

I think Michigan voters are like Michigan weather. Ya just never know.

At the same time, the Michigan Democratic Party really perplexed me. It seemed to take them FOREVER to get their shit together. All the goofing around trying to find a candidate, good grief. Nothing against Mark Brewer, I have only an inkling of what he was up against...but the fact remains, and here we are with fucking Snyderly Whiplash turning us into a Right To Work For Less state. That's awesome.

And the Michigan Democratic Party would have stood strong behind Virg Bernero, Rick THE LIAR Snyder would NOT be Governor today.

If, If was a Fifth....

And now Michigan, the home of the United AUTO Workers will suffer with Right to Work for Less legislation because of it!

Because business would be booming.

I am sad to say I am from Michigan.

. . . I have always dreamed of retiring back there, because it's Home. I'm only about 16 months away, but I have some serious consideration to do before I commit to go back there as a result of this.

but I don't think you really meant it that way

If you ask me....but I'm just one voice. I need 7 Million Plus or so behind me with Torches and Pitchfolks, marching towards our State Capitol Building in Lansing!!!

and many of those people who vote Repug will be hurt by this but are too uninformed to get it.

And Snyder can kiss my royal behind.

Pathetic and spineless are other words that come to mind.

in a state like Michigan, it tells me that Nina days are numbered. It is sad to think that my grandkids may have to fight for the same things my grandparent did.

Don't forget to vote in 2014 it's the ONLY way to get these creepers to go away!

Need to get more active on the local level. Gonna spend some more time in the state forum I think.

when the republicans locked the doors and refused to let anyone inside the building. State police ended up teargassing and then arresting eight people around noontime who were trying to get in to see what the legislature was doing. About four p.m. someone announced that a Judge had issued an injunction declaring that the state had to reopen the building, and about 400 or so demonstrators outside began chanting "Let us in! Let us in!"

Here is my video in the crowd:

I noticed that I'm subscribed to your channel. Hmm, maybe you commented on one of my Mike Malloy videos or something. But thanks for the video and for getting on the scene in Lansing!

Oh, I lived in Ann Arbor for a few years as a young boy. I've got to say, wow, I never imagined that Michigan politics would tilt this far rightward.

Today, my Late Father, a UAW Unionized Tool & Die Maker for over 41 years for GM, turned over in his URN today. I bet on it.

As usual they did this like a thief in the night. This isn't over by a longshot. They won this battle but we will win the war.

who voted with them.

Thanks Faygo Kid

because they wrote in exceptions for some people, police and firefighters. Why are these people a special class of citizens meritorious of unequal legal protections and rights?

they need the cops to enforce their deplorable policies. somebody's got to bar the door while they sell us down the river.

this whole thing stinks and a huge portion of the populace won't even notice because dancing with the stars is on.
