Sign of the times...

Ex-Detroit City Council President Monica Conyers is to report to prison on the 10th.
And so a small step toward draining the swamp that is metro-Detroit politics is made. And on a related note a one-man grand jury has been appointed to look into the "Michigan Tea Party" false-flag operation by the Democrats too. Hope & Change!

Michigan Tea Party has links to Democrats - Detroit Free Press

Not that this news comes as a surprise by now but it is about time that the dead-tree media acknowledge it, given their view of themselves as the premier font of truth, wisdom, and right here in Michigan. Snark aside, I'm still glad they finally are drilling down into the muck about this obvious false-flag operation.

Michigan "Tea Party" mud-fight still going strong

It appears the so-called "Michigan Tea Party" isn't going to be on the fall ballot after all. That may change between now and the election if the MTP organizers go to court and win. But what really illustrates the dire condition of Michigan politics is the on going mud-fight in the comments section following the article. As of this posting (6:13 PM on Mon. 08.23.2010) there are already five pages of comments wherein the posters refer to each other as "douche-bags", "scumbags", "morons" and other sobriquets for nasty stuff. A real mud-fight in other words. At least when geeks have flame wars the snark and wit are somewhat redemptive by being creative and clever. Not so here at the MLive website. They must not moderate this stuff at all.
