Michigan Attorney General Mike Cox is joining 12 other state Attorneys General across the country in a suit claiming the new federal health-care reform LAW is unconstitutional. (Let’s none of us forget that this is now a LAW and was signed by the president who is a Constitutional lawyer.) I guess Mr. Cox feels Michigan has money to burn. Given […]

Far be it from me to give Republicans political advice but this clamor to “Repeal It!” while Barack Obama is still in office and would have to sign any bill repealing the freshly signed health insurance reform seems a little … uhhh … dumb? But hey, guys, knock yourselves out, right? And that’s just what the GOPosaurs in my district […]

Taking a cue from the Frank Luntz School of Media Savvy, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) sent out an rather interesting email this past weekend. It says, in part: Washington – Despite a myriad of polls showing that a vote in favor of a government takeover of healthcare would be directly at odds with the interests and values of […]

John Dennis is running for Congress. He’s a Republican running to unseat the most powerful woman in American politics at the moment: Nancy Pelosi. He is encouraging his supporters to send Nancy Pelosi a bomb for her birthday. This same imaging shows up as a pop-up on his website when you first enter it. Oh, sure, it’s all tongue in […]

I’m taking a day off from being a grownup. In fact, I’m acting childish today. On my way to work, as I drove past the home of the man (Mark Koernke) who placed “Buy Gasmasks Now!” and “Buy more Ammo NOW!” signs in front of his house the day after the 2008 presidential elections, I let my Eff Flag fly […]

First there was this on my television screen: Then my iPhone told me this: And the sweetest, juiciest cherry on the top of it all was watching John Boehner beg. I’m just sayin’…

Proud to be part of something like Organizing for America, a group helping to change America for the better. Over half a million calls by OFA vols nationwide in ten days. Nobody could ever convince me that didn’t make a difference. I’m just sayin’…

So now it all comes down to the abortion issue for Republicans. I’m watching the Republicans on C-SPAN desperately trying to make this into a Big Government Abortion On-Demand Federally-funded abortion bill. Pardon me for a minute: BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! Nice try, you obstructionist, pro-Big Insurance GOPosaurs. I actually heard a Republican saying it’s anti-veteran. It’s pure joy to watch them completely […]

I have only three words to say about this video: It is totally freaking hilarious. (Watch it to see why that comment is funny.) I’m just sayin’…

I had an interesting experience phonebanking for OFA in Ann Arbor this week. One of the names that popped up on my list of calls was Weston Vivian, male, age 85. It was probably the most inspirational call I made all week. Weston Vivian was a U.S. Congressman from Michigan’s 2nd District from 1965-1967. As he told me during our […]

A Democrat-sponsored bill before the House of Representatives represents the most sweeping effort at deficit reduction in over a decade. Said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer: It is the largest deficit reduction measure…since Clinton’s budget in 1993, which ushered in the great economy of the 1990s. This historic move to lower the US deficit reduces it by $138 billion in […]
