If you want to see what the country would be like with today’s liberals in charge, not the JFK liberals and Democrats, but today’s liberals, take a look at Michigan. They had a government shutdown or close to it for a few hours over budget problems, and the governor up there came up with the last-minute solution to solve the problem. The last thing the state of Michigan needs is a tax increase, and they got one, a sizeable, healthy tax increase. It’s just going to continue to stifle economic activity throughout the state of Michigan.

I feel for you people, I really do. I use to live in this liberal mecca.

But you know something? You people in Michigan, you are great patriots, you are doing something very valuable and you need to take pride in your own suffering and pain, because what you are doing is demonstrating to the rest of the country, the other 49 states, what will happen to this country if people like Jennifer Granholm and the Democrats and your legislature up there get control of the United States government and the Department of Treasury. So while I know it’s tough and I know you’re irritated, I know you’ve got to be spitting, fuming, mad up there, understand that you are providing a visible laboratory; you are doing a great service. Please don’t leave the state just yet, especially going into the election next year. Your suffering, your poverty will be a dynamic example for people like me to illustrate for the rest of the country just what will happen if today’s modern liberals end up in total control of the US government.
