Don't forget Abramoff and his democrat friends

Captain's Quarters: "When the Democrats adopted the 'culture of corruption' meme as their campaign theme earlier this year, we noted that the culture hardly respected party lines. The leader of the Senate Democratic caucus, Harry Reid, took contributions from clients of Jack Abramoff and intervened on their behalf at least four times, and Abramoff hired one of Reid's staffers and started holding fundraisers for the Senate Minority Leader in Abramoff's offices."

Down the drain?

(Muskegon Heights H. S. another wallet grabber)
Taxpayers! Grab you wallets on this one! Add up the numbers on this ripoff and they'll have to sell the "condos" for $400,00 just to break even.......Unless Uncle Sam and Aunt Jennie pony up some of your moolah for "subsidies"........
Heights tries to put condos on sewage site: "A former Muskegon Heights city councilman, Lottie was the longtime affirmative action officer for the city of Muskegon. "

Yeah, right.

My Way News - Crash of Russian Passenger Jet Kills 170: "The crash 'was not a terrorist attack,' said Leonid Belyayev, acting director of Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry in St. Petersburg."
Maybe accident. Maybe terrorist. But since Leonid and everyone else has no real clue about what brought the plane down, why do they lie so transparently?

Citicide Detroit-style...

Detroit teachers rally ahead of possible strike vote: "School is scheduled to start Sept. 5 for the approximately 130,000 students in the district, which is the largest employer in the city."
One constant in every story about teachers is the aversion to report any facts about teacher compensation. The liberal MSM always assures us that if teachers want more....well, it is for the children after all, right?

Citicide in Muskegon Heights

Heights city council gives rare 'no' to business breaks: "When asked by Councilwoman Bonnie McGlothin, Dorato told the council that only one of his employees is a Heights resident.
City residents pay a 1 percent income tax. Nonresidents pay 0.5 percent. "
If there was ever any hope for the Heights, it ended when they passed the city income tax. I wonder if the Councilwoman would have voted for the tax break if the employees were residents. Otherwise, why ask the question?

Granholm... pathetic....

Granholm calls for review of state prison health care system: "Critics say the Legislature, governor and correction officials have failed to properly oversee the 190 million dollars a year the state spends on prison medical care."
Can we really afford 4 more years of this gross incompetence?

Unintended consequences?

Anyone think that a whole bunch of small firms that used to cover prescriptions for their employees are gonna drop their coverage. Soon?
Firms must pay for birth control, Michigan Civil Rights Commission rules : "Small businesses that offer comprehensive prescription coverage but fail to cover birth control are violating the state's civil rights act and could be forced to change their policies under a ruling Monday by the Michigan Civil Rights Commission."

The MSM kinda buried this one, eh?

Imagine if Kilpatrick was a white mayor. Would the MSM play it a bit louder?
Feud divides Democrats: "The feud between Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick's supporters and opponents remains a festering wound in the Democratic Party that could threaten its ability to deliver a strong voter turnout needed in Detroit to notch wins in statewide November elections."

Men in cell phone case still jailed

Men in cell phone case still jailed: "But the Palestinian-American men now each face one count of conspiring to traffic in counterfeit goods and carrying out an unlawful activity involving a financial transaction. They each could face up to 25 years in prison if convicted of the federal charges."

Way to go Jenny!

The Raw Story | Cunningham's wife tells all: Knives, guns, gay-bashing and delusion

The Raw Story Cunningham's wife tells all: Knives, guns, gay-bashing and delusion: "'When I was going to retire and become director of the Rhoades School, I made him promise to stop gay-bashing in public, because it might upset parents at that private school,' she said. She recalled when her husband addressed a group of men about his prostate surgery, he said his rectal procedure was 'just not natural, unless maybe you're Barney Frank.' Frank dismissed Cunningham's comment. 'I wouldn't list stability as his strongest personal characteristic,' he said."

It is Jack Wilson Bobblehead Doll Night. 2. They expect a crowd in excess of 30,000 fans that night. 3. The conflict is Pitt's fault."

Horrible story but a great opportunity to sue the chipper manufacturer!
JS Online: DayWatch: "Man killed in wood chipper accident
A 30-year-old man was killed this afternoon when he was sucked into a wood chipper while trying to shake loose a piece of wood that had jammed it.

The man owned a tree service company working in the 8900 block of 26th Ave. in Pleasant Prairie, according to a Pleasant Prairie Police Department press release.

The man was using his foot to clear debris that had jammed the wood chipper around 5:20 p.m. when his foot became entangled in the machine, witnesses told police.

His coworkers tried to rescue him from the intake, but he was pulled into and through the wood chipper, according to the release."
