Remember Clint Eastwood’s insulting Super Bowl commercial about Detroit’s comeback? Using the voice we have come to recognize as a source of “truth justice and the American way” he tried to fool us into believing Detroit was “too tough to die” and all that Democrat wishful thinking.
Clearly Dirty Harry didn’t do his homework because Detroit is sinking faster than the Titanic and Democrat fantasies can’t change that reality. The Democrat infected Motor City is more on course to become “Greece” than a new “grease monkey’s” paradise.
All of the make believe about Detroit’s recovery will come to a crashing end on Monday when the Republican controlled State of Michigan will be forced to start the process of taking over the day to day operations of the city.
As of today the city doesn’t have enough sustainable income sources to fund its basic services and large sections of the town get no municipal services at all – NONE.
Because it is run by Democrats Detroit has no workable recovery plan that can keep it running beyond May.
The Democrat Mayor and City Council have dug in their heels and declared they will not accept being taken over by the State, yet this is not a solely political issue.

John Conyers is threatening to bring his “personal friends” Barrack Obama and Eric Holder in to help fight the “racist” emergency manager law.
The last white mayor is the one who gets the most blame.
Closer ever closer comes the Social War?
Having been to both Greece and Detroit within the last 3 months, I can tell you that if Detroit could turn into Greece it would be a vast improvement.

As soon as a White Male is elected to the White House. I can hear it now.
"President Romney don't care bout' Detroit! He want to ship you back to Africa! Then, turn the city over to the Mormons!"
The reason that Dave Bing will never be appointed as the city manager is because it makes too much sense.
Hey coach... you are a day late and a dollar short... the race card has already been played, and continues to be played on almost a daily basis.....
Seriously? They've been doing it since the early seventies. Everything, and I do mean everything that goes wrong in theat city is ALWAYS because of racism. Commit a crime and get caught? It's only because of racism. Lose over half you population? Racism. Go bankrupt ... well, you get the picture.
