I woul...yes I would sign a petition to recall him. I would volunteer my time to stand outside of a supermarket and have as many people sign it, and I am crippled. I would stand on my crippled leg for as many days as I could. I knew he was full of shit when he ran his false campaign lies about the city of Lansings unemployment numbers. I can't understand how these so called "educated" people who voted for him could not see this. His math numbers were either "over inflated" or "lies". He doesn't care about the citizens of Michigan, he says "reinvent Michigan" but Michigan is doing the same thing, cutting education and continuing to spend more of the general fund on corrections, when are these dummies in our political system ever going to learn. He says to invest in the future, well invest in the future by giving our leaders of tomorrow a good education, ok so we might have to let someone who stole something from the store out of jail early. That is the price that should be paid, i'd rather take some time to watch my neighborhood then pay out of my pocket to continue to pay for prisoners and not educated the kids so we can pay for more corrections tomorrow, cause they never learned. Lets get with it people. It's very simple, and would solve a whole bunch of problems of tomorrow and lets really "reinvent" Michigan and it's future.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17350233849477754183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-30358974141051700562011-03-18T13:44:41.518-05:002011-03-18T13:44:41.518-05:00If you're going to do the same thing you did i...If you're going to do the same thing you did in Ohio with a Drew Carey figure, how about Stabenow v.

Maybe Dillon vs Snyder instead.<br />- Ask how much they've heard about Snyder's budget plan,favs/unfavs.<br />- Do you believe Governor Snyder is governing in the way he promised during his campaign? (Snyder presented himself as uber-moderate pragmatic, and only got through the Repub primary with ~35% of the vote)<br />- Poll support for *recalling* Snyder (Michigan allows recalls after 6 months - so in July.)<br />- Poll support for a constitutional amendment permanently preserving collective bargaining - This can be done by petition and referendum with ~300,000 signatures and is being pushed by the Dem legislature minority leaders.<br />- Poll support/opposition towards letting Snyder speak at the University of Michigan commencement (would be nice if you could break this down by phone code, so we could have a small subsample of Ann Arborites.) Note that in just three days, 16% of the UM student population has signed a petition against this - https://www.msa.umich.edu/upetition/p/ReconsiderRickSnyder/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-85828862925456821672011-03-17T16:37:56.509-05:002011-03-17T16:37:56.509-05:00terri lynn land. shes a semi-moderate with a highl...terri lynn land. shes a semi-moderate with a highly positive rating but a low national profile. if she runs she'll win. poll herAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-37450167559290317902011-03-17T16:19:06.776-05:002011-03-17T16:19:06.776-05:00(1) Ask about Snyder's plan to tax retirement ...(1) Ask about Snyder's plan to tax retirement income.<br /><br />(2) Ask about the recent law allowing governor to revoke local control for cities and school districts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451770086337664.post-60331602055103867042011-03-17T16:19:02.979-05:002011-03-17T16:19:02.979-05:00I'm from Michigan.
