Yes, but Michigan courts are another big problem.

biglake commented on the blog post Michigan Republicans Kill Petition Over “Font Size.” What’s Next, Whining about Kerning?
God bless Rachel for her coverage. I believe she does get pushback from Michigan news outlets- they simply ignore the duty to cover our real news, don’t report political conflict and likely it is a result of power-mongering. Michigan conservative media sucks and it is what keeps the R’s message out there. Pathetic and irrelevant news. We will be watching to see if any of this makes 6:00 news in a truthful way on local broadcast channels. Doubtful.
I hope Rachel covers the bankruptcy angle as well as the democracy angle. This is theft of resources and preventing bankruptcy procedure to take over Michigan’s assets. So where are the Feds on this? Anybody? And where is the Dem party in Michigan? Absent and neutral? Oh great, Brewer.

biglake commented on the diary post NYT Puts an Anti-Obamacare Piece in the News Section by Dean Baker.
I hope Dean can take a look at what Michigan’s Gov. Snyder is trying to do to his “employees” of the state-the women, the teachers. This is in addition to the “emergency manager” process of fascism impacting communities in Michigan. Currently you may have, say, a pension of 1350.00 a month and be expected to [...]

biglake commented on the diary post Oil and Obama. We are all being played for fools as the robbery at the gas pumps continues. by Alan Maki.
We are no Obama fans, because he is not pursuing policy for our people. Absolutely, cap the damn profits-tax their asses and then invest it in beneficial forms of energy. Outlaw fracking and save our water resources as our public trust. It would be wonderful if the policy actually helped people. Can you imagine? Screw [...]

Oh and those party structure types have done so well.. fighting ALEC for example. they don’t deserve progressive or rather enlightened people’s support. Screw em and who cares. Its not like we are seeing policy for people.

I imagine we will never know that it was Ron Paul. Likely secret.

Wow. A grand plan all along.. Obama hands it back to the rightful party of business.

biglake commented on the blog post Another Insider Declares Deal Was Made to Stop Public Option
And that is the problem with an “umbrella” organization. As soon as leadership is established..it can be compromised.
I will never forgive the Obama administration. We have experienced devastating policy from him.. and that is what counts. No democracy in that leadership. They did not just dump on progressives- they dumped on all of his proper populist support. Unforgivable. These are American families they screwed-assholes.
Protest vote it is.

biglake commented on the diary post Obama Crowned Himself on New Year’s Eve by David Swanson.
Yes. We need to vote out Obama. Any protest vote is better than the unfortunate hypocritical results with his administration. He sought to defeat the people he represented. Thanks for this outline and very important- it should piss off everybody to think of what has taken place. Levin and Stabenow are not doing right by [...]

Nothing in there about Democratic faithlessness to party platform and policy for people! The rest is meaningless!

Amen.
Just don’t vote for them again.

biglake commented on the diary post Who is the White House Serving, the People or the Bishops? by RHRealityCheck.
Ditto. It is with total disgust that many American women (and likewise former Catholics) now angrily view the men who lead the church of Rome fraternity. Absolute and disgraceful excuse for leadership. One wonders why they hate women so much. In northern Michigan, women voters suffered the traitorous behavior of former congressperson (D supposedly-like Obama) [...]

Shivers! Cool guy and outstanding song. Beautiful protest. What courage indeed to sit it out in the center of the storm with THEM. We all thank Makana-may his music be heard everywhere.

biglake commented on the blog post Pelosi Signals Her Willingness to Cut Medicare and Social Security Benefits
“Why not double Social Security and Medicare benefits, and quadruple taxes on the wealthy? That would kill two birds with one stone.”
!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome idea. Shows some desire and strength of purpose for OUR side!

Entitlements? You mean the entitlement of the 1% don’t you?
Social Security is America’s civilized agreement to provide decent life circumstances for its elderly. They just can’t stand to see that big pot of savings by the people sitting there without exploiting it for their own. Rather, they just can’t stand owing that obligation after they have exploited it.

Our safety net- she is a millionaire and doesn’t need one. We don’t need her duplicitous leadership.
Can them all.. throw them all out. We can’t trust them. They don’t care about consequence either. Very poor leaders. Evil.

It is time for OWS to de-commission them. Democrats need to feel some pain from voters. We need new candidates everywhere and no renewals.

biglake commented on the blog post Designing a Worthwhile Mortgage Plan
Wavpeac,
Something big.. or the real reason.. one can believe it is the degree of government complicity and involvement in the crimes, whether personal or semi-official, conspiring that would prevent the exposure. Just start at the top with Obama who provided immunity for Geithner and Summers by hiring them. His (Our) Justice Department failed to act and do their jobs. That is the top.

biglake commented on the diary post Obama’s dare to SCOTUS could screw patients and help insurers by Consumer Watchdog.
He is pretty good at throwing us away- when he has just thrown out a bone in Iraq. He doesn’t work for us. He is accomplishing much for THEM. It is against democratic principles to accept such laws. Good conscience won’t allow support of immoral policy against the health of our people and our belief [...]
