The revolt against authoritarian Republican "Daddy States" continues, as a Michigan election panel gave preliminary approval for a recall effort to proceed against Governor Rick Snyder.

According to the Detroit Free Press the main group behind the initiative, Michigan Citizens United, "would need the signatures of 807,000 registered voters collected within a 90-day period to force an election."

Snyder is being targeted by Michigan residents dissatisfied with several of his actions since assuming office. These include the passing of an "emergency fiscal manager" bill that gives the governor enhanced powers to dissolve local governments, contracts with public employees, and privatize public services from the local to state level.

1. The first thing Walker did in WI was to give tax credits to compainies -then he said
WI was broke and in the hole and demanded the working folks cough up the tax break money.

MI governor leans well from Walker!

2. Snyder ran on this crap. Everyone who bothered to pay attention saw this coming
but our economy has been so terrible for so long that people seem to be able to convince themselves of almost anything.

This guy looks like a political kamikaze. I think he knows he is going down in flames and is taking as much of our government with him as he can. I also think he has a diamond encrusted, platinum lined golden parachute with pearl inlay that he will be able to deploy once he does all the damage he can.
