  theblogprof — Authority: 672
  Woe to the man who cannot wield his own sword! For whatever reason, Granholms wife, Dan Mulhern, is getting her pants (or panties as it were) in a wad regarding the relationship and role reversals.

  theblogprof — Authority: 672
  Now just substitute "running" with "leading" and you have the totality of Granholms 2 terms in a nutshell.

• Obama administration concerned about Granholms Lt. Gov as candidate

  
  theblogprof — Authority: 672
  Anyone surprised that Obama is sticking his claws into state business? This president is power-hungry, and needs blue states to continue to kowtow to special interests that were responsible for his election last year. The MSM is already on board and dont get voted out. Politicians, however, do. And the Democrats here ...

• Granholm raises state budget by

  
  theblogprof — Authority: 672
  This is so frustrating. No matter the reality, some liberals continue to trot out the same lie, almost as if to make it true if repeated enough. The big lie that liberal crank Tim Skubick likes to repeat ad infinitum is that Granholm is a budget cutter. Not just a run-of the mill kind of budget cutter. But the ...

  theblogprof — Authority: 672
  And Granholm will make sure of that. The first role of government is protection, but liberals like Granholm always sacrifice safety by cutting police, firefighters and prisons while beholden to unsustainable union benefits like pensions and generous healthcare while many retire before the age of 50.
