Still talking to fawning college students. Except the 18 year old freshman were 8 when he burst on the scene and more kids are seeing through the lures of communism.

A dyed-in-the-wool Marxist lecturing on growing the economy.

Good luck with that, Citizen.

If U of M is the cathedral and Wayne State University is the church, then Macomb County Community College must be one of their nurseries.

Oh great. Departure time will have a HUGE impact on rush hour traffic, as if it wasn’t bad already. Not to mention all the wasted energy burned sitting on the highway while waiting for his silly ass to make it from Macomb to Selfridge.

Yes.. THE GOVERNMENT should “invest in skills”

That ALWAYS works so well- does anyone here remember the CETA program under the (now) second-worst president ever- Carter?

$millions flushed down the drain, people trained for jobs that didn’t exist, and the end result was NO NET GAIN.

And from yesterday's speech:

Biden roared as he bemoaned the way workers have been "clobbered" in recent years

I wonder if SlowJoe and Baraq know who's been in charge for the last 8 years?

" On Wednesday September 9, the President will travel with Dr. Jill Biden to Macomb Community College in Warren, Michigan to deliver remarks on the importance of investing in skills and growing the economy. "

Now?????? After, ummmmm, nearly seven (7) years?

Isn't that kinda like locking the barn door after the horse is gone, sent to France, and sold in a butcher shop? (Tho I might take the Biden connection as the horse's head tossed into Hillary's bed.)

When I lived in the Detroit area the locals all seemed to believe that WAS the way that you grew an economy.

When I was in college, I dated a young lady for a couple of years who was from Roseville, the next town to Warren. Her mom worked at MCC.

Shouldn’t the title read WARNING instead of ADVISORY?

He (Obama) and Air Force One are due to arrive at Selfridge Air National Guard Base, the only base Michigan has left with any real firepower and Obama would just as soon have it closed.

And Hackel (D) may be running for Governor. I think property (lakefront) developers are after Hackel to close SANGB. He claims to be a great supporter of the military but with the democrats, it’s more and more a “By Any Means Necessary” approach to achieving their goals.

I’d like to see Bill Schuette run for governor despite the fact that he’s on Team Jeb. I think he would be a strong candidate.

He seems to be keeping a low profile. I don’t know a whole lot about him and what he would bring to the governorship, etc. Well, time to do some research...
