A Pyrrhic victory

Isn't this special--the Michigan  House republicans are taking a victory lap, patting themselves on the back for following the will of our state's voters.

Because what we all voted for was lower wages, less rights for women to control their own bodies, our teachers, policemen, and firefighters to be treated like a sacks of shit, less taxes for corporations, more taxes for retirees, and the rights of idiots to drive without motorcycle helmets,  And don't forget to throw in a corrupt House Speaker who laughs in the face of the democratic process and resorts to cheating to win another seat for his party.

If their goal was to make Michigan as barren of a landscape as North Dakota (and what a goal that is!), they have succeeded remarkably well.

Might I suggest in their next term they change our state slogan from "Pure Michigan" to "Don't Move Here, And If You Already Live Here, Get The Fuck Out While You Still Can!"

Peace,
