Wait a sec! Wasn't it Republicans who supposedly were irresponsibly accusing Dems of being socialists and Commies? Check that. Ed Schultz has declared--not paraphrasing, actually quoting--that Tea Partiers who support Republican Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder are "lining up with the Communist Party."
Schultz was set off by Snyder's signing off an emergency bill giving, as per this report, "broad new powers to emergency financial managers appointed by the state of Michigan to run struggling cities and schools, including the ability to terminate union contracts."

And don’t forget about Jenny and a 7 million tax break to a fraudster who lived in a trailer.
Sorry bud, didn’t mean to be so blunt.
There are a lot of restrictions on these *emergency managers* which is now law.
Am not going to praise nor defile Snyder until there are consequences. The damage from eight years of Moleface is extreme.
It appears Ricky is going the course of death by 1000 cuts rather than a world war, this is interesting - using legislation signed by Blanchard LOL.
When you look at MI vs. WI the difference is staggering!
They are roughly half the size and with over three times the debt, so when you add that up the mess WI is in is unfathomable.
OTOH MI seems rather tame, we shall see.
Also would like to point out - for whatever reason, the WI state capital was a sea of red for weeks, campus union pinheads, yet here in Lansing with the home of MSU, no one wears green.
What say you about that? The MI Lansing protests look like just a hodgepodge of unions, that is all. No support from the masses.
Sage words from a friend in the 7th.
However chances are pretty good after redistricting we won’t be in the same district together.
Right now I’m in Walberg territory on that freakish eastern fake wing, but if I go north a few football fields I’m in McCotter land!
Snyder is unique as is Michigan.
Democrats elected Snyder, period. (open primaries, all that)
They may be sorry LOL.
I hate it when someone gets a job because of their looks.
If Ed really thought Snyder was a commie, Ed would be kissing his ass. MSNBC has become totally unwatchable without the comic relief of Olbermann’s fake outrage. The hosts they have left are just as stupid as Olbermann, but with zero entertainment value. Their mind-numbed stupidity is just boring to watch.
