The Volt - G.M.’s Electric Lemon

The Volt - G.M.’s Electric Lemon - NYTimes.com
"For starters, G.M.’s vision turned into a car that costs $41,000 before relevant tax breaks ... but after billions of dollars of government loans and grants for the Volt’s development and production.
And instead of the sleek coupe of 2007, it looks suspiciously similar to a Toyota Prius.

It also requires premium gasoline, seats only four people (the battery runs down the center of the car, preventing a rear bench) and has less head and leg room than the $17,000 Chevrolet Cruze, which is more or less the non-electric version of the Volt.

In short, the Volt appears to be exactly the kind of green-at-all-costs car that some opponents of the bailout feared the government might order G.M. to build.
Unfortunately for this theory, G.M. was already committed to the Volt when it entered bankruptcy.
And though President Obama’s task force reported in 2009 that the Volt “will likely be too expensive to be commercially successful in the short term,” it didn’t cancel the project."

the Origins of the 'Acting White' Phenomenon

Author John McWhorter Dissects the Origins of the 'Acting White' Phenomenon
"a crucial reason for the gap in scholarly performance between even middle-class black students and white ones was that to be Young, Gifted and Black is often to also find oneself tarred as ''acting white'' by black peers"

There seems to not be an issue to the NAACP or it's personal political party, the democrats.
But Andrew Breitbart is a BIG deal!
Anyone sense a lack if seriousness here....

Three Unpaid Parking Tickets? No License!

Three Unpaid Parking Tickets? No License! [Mackinac Center]: "Three Unpaid Parking Tickets? No License!By Ken Braun July 27, 2010
Motorist with three or more unpaid parking tickets at one time should be looking warily over their shoulder at what state politicians are doing with legislation that has cleared the Michigan House but come to a stall in the Senate.
House Bill 4726, sponsored by Rep. Roy Schmidt, D-Grand Rapids, would have the Secretary of State deny a driver license renewal to any motorist with as few as three unpaid parking tickets. The bill cleared the Michigan House last October on a vote of 68-37."

"No other problems happenin' here folks....just workin' on the things that REALLY matter folks...."
This is your democrat party in Michigan folks!

Phoney "Tea Party" candidates exposed!

Grand Haven Tribune a Michigan Newspaper
"Two candidates nominated by The Tea Party to run for state Senate seats won't be on the ballot because they're too young.
Thirteenth District Senate candidate Thomas Murdock of Troy and 15th District Senate candidate Heather Sartorius of New Hudson were both born in 1990 and won't be 21 by Jan. 1, 2011, the date they'd take office if they won.
That violates the state constitution.
A secretary of state spokeswoman says they're ineligible to appear on the Nov. 2 ballot.

Requests for comment left today with Murdock and Sartorius were not immediately returned.
The two were among 23 candidates nominated over the weekend by The Tea Party.

Unaffiliated tea partiers and Republicans are fighting to keep The Tea Party off the ballot."

The Michigan Tea Party movement has no affiliation with ANY political party.
This "Tea Party" is a phony scheme to disenfranchise voters by confusing them.
It is a creation of  the democrat party and its progressive/union thugs in order to steal another election.
We real Muskegon Tea Party members and all Tea Party members statewide are working very hard to expose and decertify this politial abomination.
