| A bunch of stuff has happened. It's all probably worthy of mention, but not anything I can really muster the energy necessary for individual posts. So, we'll go with this: *--Ask and ye shall receive: Bart Stupak has a primary challenger over his role in the health care debate. I like Stupak for a lot of other things he does, but this isn't terribly surprising. On the other hand, it's one thing to challenge someone in a primary, it's another thing to mount a serious challenge. Anyway, some of you have been agitating for someone to run against him, and here is your chance. *--Some dude rips apart Sen. Roger Kaaaaahn!'s speech (was this the one where he described the color of partially digested blood?), defending Michigan's unique drug maker immunity law. He called it,"inaccurate, irrelevant, or both." On the other hand, dude teaches in Ann Arbor, which is practically San Francisco. Will these revelations help move this legislation? Not in a hundred, billion years. *--Lessenberry's weekly Metro Times column sets his readers up by letting them down. He goes through everyone running and mentions why they aren't terribly good candidates. Oh wait, there's one guy he didn't mention ... Joe Schwarz. Lessenberry wraps up promising to provide an alternative, by the way. *--Monica Conyers gets sentenced today. A couple of housekeeping things here: *--For Android users, have I mentioned that the MichLib Android app is available for free? I know at the start that there was talk of charging a buck for it, but that's not the case. You can get it for free. *--A new addition to the blogroll is the Michigan League of Conservation Voters' new blog, MI Eye on Bishop. It's part of their accountability project. If you follow MichLib by regularly visiting this page, you've probably already seen the interview Bruce Fealk did with them. Otherwise, here's a link to his diary. |
