Of course, this

should come as no particular surprise: the ALEC-stooge government of Michigan (both houses of the legislature and the lap-dog governor) hijack the "Pure Michigan" tourism promotion brand, previously used exclusively as a nonpartisan and nonpolitical vehicle to promote natural resources and vacation destinations in the state, as a political propaganda foghorn to promote their right-to-bend-over union-busting legislation rammed into law in the lame-duck session last month.

Just another day in a rump redneck rightwing republic.

And just rant nonstop how the GOP is plunging the nation over the cliff. Stay in town all the way THROUGH Christmas.

Create the public image of the Dems staying in town willing to work to solve the problem while the rich-boy GOP jets home for Caviar Christmas.

Dow futures are crashing. The Dems need to get out front and BLAME IT ON THE REPUBLICANS.

By morning Faux Fascist Noise will have its talking points up and running and it will all be the "Mooslim Neegro's" fault.

Another day in the Empire of Michifascistan.

People are SHOCKED that an apparent "loophole" in the ALEC/NRA-concocted gun law rammed into law by the damn-the-torpedoes lame-duck Republicans would prevent any publicly-owned and operated facilities such as schools from taking any steps to prevent gun nuts from bringing guns onto the premises.

The GOPbagger junta ruling the state continues to run down the ALEC checklist, as dictated to them by their big-buck buddies:

-- Approving a $600 million tax money giveaway for a new arena to billionaire sports franchise owner? CHECK

-- Union-busting RTW laws? CHECK

-- Emergency Manager laws to take away local government from those stupid lazy coloreds? (Despite a decisive election result one month ago repealing a nearly identical law) CHECK *

-- More charter-school horseshit to take away money from public education and give it to the Billy Bob Bible Beating Charter Schools? CHECK *

-- Abortion laws!! Gotta stick our GOPbagger speculums up the hoo-has of those uppity Vagina-Americans. CHECK

-- GUN NUTS!! YES you can carry your iron in your local Day Care!! CHECK

And of course Governor Dipstick, the Smiling Nerd, will sign them all.

He's a good little puppy dog. He's done his master's bidding. He expects a nice juicy meaty treat for Christmas.

* Also of course to allow the fire-sale selloff of public properties (especially public school properties) to their strip-and-loot henchmen.

The beat goes on

Lost in the brouhaha over ramming through the right-to-work bills, the GOPBagger-dominated Michigan Legislature also rammed through a bill converting the state's largest health insurer, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, in order to allow them to deregulate rates.

Detroit Red Wings (and Tigers) owner Mike Ilitch, A Billionaire (estimated net worth $1.6B) wants a new hockey arena to replace the team's current taxpayer-paid Joe Louis Arena.

On Monday the team issues a PR release detailing plans for a $650 million arena project. Financing is nebulous but supposedly "some private money" will be involved, Ha ha.

You tell us that you're so smart, Mitt
And Fox believes what you say
But really you're full of shit, Mitt
To deal it out this way, hey

Lies, lies
We can't believe a word you say
Lies, lies
We're gonna make you sad someday

You're fake, an incredible phony,
But you won't be hangin' round
You'll have to just count your money
Till the day they lay you in the ground

Lies, breakin' the charts
You tell us that you're so smart, Mitt
And Fox believes what you say
But really you're full of shit, Mitt
To deal it out this way, hey

Lies, lies
We can't believe a word you say
Lies, lies
We're gonna make you sad someday

Breakin' the charts
Breakin' the charts

Shocker shocker. The Associated Press, everybody's favorite News Source Of The Village, By The Village, and For The Village, simply decides it can't fact-check ALL of Michelle Bachmann's lies -- only SOME of them. [Salon.com has the story.]

SIAP but it's still a laugh. And the funny thing (well kinda funny, anyway) is there are scores and scores of other teabag idiots for which the same could be said:
