Medicaid paid dead people

Gantert: Medicaid paid dead people themichiganview.com
"There were Medicaid payments of perhaps up to $2 million paid to dead people or for people who had died before they received the medical service in question.
That was one of the more glaring findings in a recently released state audit of the Department of Community Health.
It states that as much as $4.4 billion over the past two years was not properly accounted for."

No faith in universities

EDITORIAL: No faith in universities - Washington Times

Miss Keeton's crime in the eyes of the bureaucracy was saying that homosexuality was a lifestyle choice, not a 'state of being,'"

Oliver Stone: 'Jewish-Dominated Media' Prevents Hitler from Being Portrayed 'in Context' NewsBusters.org
"Stone said that, 'Hitler did far more damage to the Russians than the Jewish people, 25 or 30 [million killed].'

The Sunday Times interviewer then asked why there was such a focus on the Holocaust.


'The Jewish domination of the media,' responded Stone.
'There's a major lobby in the United States.
They are hard workers.
They stay on top of every comment, the most powerful lobby in Washington.
Israel has f***** up United States foreign policy for years.'"

Settlement expected for Detroit cop who ticketed Christine Beatty

Settlement expected for Detroit cop who ticketed Christine Beatty detnews.com
"The settlement is separate from a 2008 case in which $25,000 was paid out to end a defamation lawsuit brought by two police officers who pulled over Beatty in another suit.

The officers maintained she yelled at them, used profane language and asked 'do you know who the ... I am?'

After details of the stop became public, Kilpatrick implied in a radio interview that the officers violated her rights."

And the money comes from the Detroit-money-tree!
How cool is that!

TED NUGENT: America's economic hari-kari

TED NUGENT: America's economic hari-kari - Washington Times
"Anyone with a lick of common sense will tell you that when you are in a hole, you need to quit digging.
Continuing to dig will only create a larger problem.
Do schools teach this?

Recently, even President Obama's national debt commission told him that his continuing spending orgy is digging America into a gigantic fiscal hole.

Next year, America's total debt is expected to exceed $14 trillion.
Each American's share of that debt totals just short of $50,000.
If Fedzilla would be honest and put all the figures on the table, we would see that we are in debt more than $100 trillion because of the financial obligations for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

That's $100 trillion.
One hundred percent predictable, 100 percent preventable."

The Nuge speaks the truth!
Will we listen?

The sheriff shoots himself in the foot

The sheriff shoots himself in the foot themichiganview.com

"Bouchard answered 'supports' to a Detroit News query published Thursday about whether he backed the 'affirmative action ban.'

The question was in reference to the 2006 Michigan Civil Rights Initiative that banned racial preferences in state hiring and passed in a popular landslide with a huge majority of Republican voters.

Bouchard, however -- in keeping with his historically cautious style -- opposed the measure as a U.S. Senate candidate.
Other high-profile GOP moderates like Dick DeVos and Rick Snyder also ran for the tall grass at the time -- a retreat that ultimately victorious conservatives have never forgotten."

Let us not forget!
