The vice president's speech helped kick off the start of the Detroit Labor Day parade. This is the second time Biden has been in Detroit on Labor Day in the past three years.

I don't think they saved anything. The red brick road might be all the memorial it gets. Carl Levin wanted some 3 million dollars from transportation funding for a memorial and the road might be where it went.

Detroit is one of the last places that comes to mind when you think “work” isn’t it?

Thanks!
Like a lot of Motown, it looks sparse...
Sparse is definitely better than decrepit.

If Union Dues were truly voluntary, there wouldn’t be any Unions. Now you know why they HATE Governor Scott Walker.

I’ve actually got higher hopes for Detroit than I do for most American cities.

While Detroit has found rock bottom and been forced into a semblance of responsibility, much larger cities are still going full speed ahead into their black holes of debt.

What gall to have a Democratic Party rally in a city they singlehandedly destroyed, and on Labor Day of all days, in a city with high unemployment. Uncle Joe doesn’t have the best political minds on his team, does he?

"It’s time to take back America."

First thing Plugs has ever said that I agree with.

They planned on saving part of it, in the end the whole thing came down. A group does maintain a diamond last I knew.

3 left wing protesters is newsworthy but 100,000 show up for the March for Life and the MSM doesn’t mention it

I thought it was against Detroit law to have anything at all organized.

Did Chuck lead the pack in giving Biden a standing ovation?

“Biden speaks? Throw him a fish.”

No. Just throw him a shotgun. He’ll tell us how to use it properly!

Let’s quit calling them the MSM. Let’s call them the propaganda media. That is what they are, as you are well aware.
