Senate Democratic Leader Gretchen Whitmer, who on Thursday called the votes to approve the right-to-work measure “petty and vindictive politics,” sparked more backlash Friday when she said she wants the president, who is set to visit Detroit on a previously scheduled political trip on Monday, to push back on Republican Gov. Rick Snyder by holding back federal money for a new international bridge project to Canada and a badly needed mass-transit program in ailing Detroit.
“We are hoping that when President Obama comes to Michigan next week, that this is going to be on his radar screen, that he’s going to say Michigan doesn’t care about their middle class, [so] why should we be bending over backwards to make sure that this governor is able to deliver on his promise,” said Mrs. Whitmer in an interview with local radio station WWJ.
Her remarks, amid calls from other Democrats and union leaders to use all legal means necessary to stop the bills from becoming law, drew a stern rebuke from WJR host Frank Beckmann.
I don't live in Michigan, but what the fuck, Mrs. Whitmer - who gives a rat's ass if you are in the top 2% of money in the US - this just shows you are a piece of shit that needs to be in the same hole that many Americans believe Obama should be in...
ReplyDeleteActually MI does care about the middle class which is why they are fighting hard for their Rights to Work. What we don't truly care about is fighting hard for the Union bosses super payhecks with their Black River Resorts and thug-like tactics and fear mongering while destroying Capitol buildings and pushing little old men and women around.
