Hiroshima

A tale of two cities

This was one of our earliest posts.

We grabbed the idea from an email that went viral back in 2008 and still comes around occasionally today.

We bring it back with the news that the city of Detroit has been taken over by the state of Michigan whose Governor Rick Snyder has appointed a financial manager under Michigan law to manage the city of Detroit's finances in an effort to avoid the alternative of banktuptcy.

 

How is this possible ???

Must be John Engler's fault !!!

 

That's an inside joke there.

You see, John Engler was a former Republican governor that Michigan Democrats used to like to blame for everything they could imagine not including "global warming/climate change" only because they had yet to imagine "global warming/climated change" while absolutely refusing to address responsibility for any problems they might have had a little something to do with creating their own selves.

Sort of like what we have going around here nowadays at the national level.

If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

I never give them hell.  I just tell the truth and they think it's hell.
 
I learned that a great leader is a man who has the ability to get other people to do what they don't want to do and like it.
 
America was not built on fear.  America was built on courage, on imagination, and unbeatable determination to do the job at hand.
 
 The leader has to lead, or otherwise he has no business in politics.
 
Men make history, and not the other way around.  In periods where there is no leadership, society stands still.
 
Progress occurs when courageous, skillful leaders seize the opportunity to change things for the better.
 
You know that being an American is more than a matter of where your parents came from.  It is a belief that all men are created free and equal and that everyone deserves an even break.
 
We believe that all men are created equal because they are created in the image of God.
