"What most people outside MI do not know is that Colman Young and his cronies helped to create a toxic relationship between Detroit and rest of the state, especially the northern suburbs of Detroit."

None more racist or corrupt. Detoilet was a rich, middle-class liberal utopia for the first 3/4's of the 20th century. That changed exponentially after Young was elected.

My extended family fled Detoilet in the '60's and early '70's. When Young was elected in '74, Detoilet went down hill in spectacular fashion. Unions, race baters, and democRats killed the goose that laid the golden egg.

True, but as of now, he is one of the few with the balls to tell it like it is. So far, he’s ahead of the pack by a few lengths.

The ‘leadership’? Nary a PEEP on any scandal, except to bolster the DEMs position (aka Amnesty).

Please, I am a lady, so could you please use the proper word and not a vulgarity when you mean “courage”? Thank you.

;) My apologies....his testicular fortitude.

I’m hesitant to write what I think of M. Bachmans lack of the same though (being testicular-ly lacking)

Thanks.

“Intestinal fortitude” would be a good one.

I know a lot of people here, male and female, get annoyed with my old lady scoldings, but I really feel that we need to restore some old-fashioned etiquette to our public discourse. When I was growing up in the 1950s and ‘60s, it was considered very low class for a woman to use four-letter words, and gentlemen cleaned up their language in the presence of ladies.

Then came the 1970s. Many women decided that modest dress and saving themselves for marriage was just too old fashioned and that the f-bomb was now a cool word to use. It’s been downhill, ever since, IMO.

Liking that... Someone has to, and it’s about time.
