Democrats have held power in Michigan for far too long, the state has over 9% unemployment rate, and they expect DEMOCRATS to save them???

I guess green energy and the auto companies don’t mix. Someone suspects Dingell of having a conflict of interest, methinks. Of course, the entire dem party is a conflict of interest.....

So now we get the demagogue Waxman. No offshore drilling, no new coal plants. Gas back to $3.00 by spring, $5.00 by July. Electric brownouts by 2010, rationing by 2011.

He’s from Michigan. That seems to be the main qualification these days.
Dingell represents Ford’s district (Dearborn). He’s also pro-gun rights, believe it or not. Waxman hates the auto industry and that’s why he went after Dingell.
Michigan is on the decline in so many ways. Maybe with Obamanation in power the decline will happen faster so we can hit bottom faster and *hopefully* recover by voting the libs and dems OUT here.

No carbon trading. Waxman is big on carbon credit trading.

Dingell is reasonably pro-gun, though I believe he voted for the first AWB.
Waxman OTOH, is a fanatic anti-gunner. He’ll try to outlaw any bullet with any lead content via regulation. Whether he succeeds or not isn’t the issue right now - but Dingell would never do this. We’re going to have to waste time, money & effor to defeat him on this.

John Dingell Jr. and his father, John Dingell Sr., have served in the MI Congressional delegation uninterruptedly for the past 75 years.
Junior is 83 days away from breaking the all-time record for the longest service in the House.

Several months ago Dingell said he would like to see a $.50 per gallon of gas increase in taxes in order to stir people into driving less.......and this was at the time when gas prices were at their highest.
I don't know if that had anything to do with it........

He was on the board of the NRA once and gets consistent NRA A+ ratings.

With Waxman, you can kiss 2 of the Big 3 goodbye. Chrysler will go first, then GM. Ford might make it.
To: Kieri
Dingell just wasn’t quite leftist enough.
