Every liberal I know has a reason for their stupidity. I like to understand it so I can refute the argument with my moderate friends.
If you are prosperous, you are less dependent on the government, and so the government exercises less control over you. The Left is all about control. The woman must be a total idiot to tick off all the farmers in her state.
It seems she’s using public health as an argument.
I thought she’d go all in and go for saving the planet as a rationale.
This is just low-level stupidity, not bottom of the barrel yet, she can still go lower.
She is an idiot. My guess is that she is drawing attention to the national HC debate and this is nothing more than a way for her to show her support in a "larger than a newsconference" way.
The ominous implication is that once government owns healthcare, it can, and will, dictate who gets coverage, perhaps based on lifestyle, or job, or age, or party affiliation.....
You connected the dots!
Beware of a liberal who has been term-limited.
Let her keep it up. Maybe if she wreaks the economy enough and it hurts bad enough, next time the people will think twice about voting in another liberal democrat. Maybe then we can get someone in that’s conservative and instead of running the state into the ground, would help to build it back up.
Stupid leftist.
Even if she is term-limited, she isn’t dead and might want to run for, say, the Senate somewhere down the road.
Could be. That race would be fun, watching the liberals fight the liberals.
Meatless Fridays, Not just for Catholics anymore!
Actually, I think this is rather brilliant on her part. I can think of nothing else she could possibly do that would be half as likely to get a lot of people in MI to go out and buy a bunch of steaks or hamburgers or other meat for Saturday as this will.
This Canadian A—Hat has done more damage to this state than any previous governor. I will go out, buy some big juicy steaks, fire up the barbeque and fill up my gas tank after 4PM. I hope the smoke blows towards Lansing.
I have just called Her Dishonor at the "constituent [dis]services" number listed, and said approximately the following:
"In an effort to prevent Clueless Jenny from destroying yet another Michigan industry, the production of meat, by declaring a 'Meatout' on the 20th, some friends of mine and I will be making a special effort to buy meat in quantity, and will eat every meal out at restaurants that specialize in meat, letting the waitstaff and cooks (wherever possible) know that we are doing so in an effort to save their jobs from her policies.
"Thank you, and have a terrible day."
She can’t leave office fast enough! Good riddance!
Ugly fat in the governor’s mansion ping.
I have told my students and colleagues at the land grant school where I teach that this country needs a 3 week Ethiopian style famine where there is no meat, milk or cheese on the grocery shelves.
Perhaps such an occurrence would right this upside down world we live in today ??????
MFO
Looks like I better get some steaks to that day.
LOL I didn’t need that mental image.
