• Salary raises, jobs not in danger counted as "created or saved" in stimulus numbers

  Number of comments: 1

• 'V' Premier has Obama's promises all over it

  Number of comments: 2

  Number of comments: 2
  The one firewall we conservatives have in this sate is the Senate. The MI House has a large majority of Democrats and the executive branch is run by tax-and-spender Jennifer Granholm. The MI Senate has only a narrow majority GOP. That majority increased by one last night. From The Detroit [...]
