Re: I-375 deconstruction is crony capitalism in action

As I recall, the original-original plan (late 1950s) was to have the 375 expressway connect to the US10 expressway (the Lodge) on Jefferson, as an expressway. That's a pretty stupid plan. It would have destroyed downtown. Actually... he might be right. What he's describing is the way the business s...

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel

It’s a finite resource. We WILL RUN OUT in the next 100 years or so. Obsolescence will happen whether you approve or not. If we all believed that "peak oil" BS in the 70's we'd have been out of oil and gas a couple decades ago! Rate This doesn't have the Petroleum Tin Foil Hat. Oil consumption is o...

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel

The suits state attorneys general filed against 3M, et al. for PFAS made sense. Harm in precise physical locations could be directly attributed to the substance.

Re: Netanyahu jeopardizes US relationship

Netanyahu's actions are a response to the existential threats posed by Hamas, which has a long history of aggression towards Israel. The high casualty toll is tragic but should be attributed to Hamas, which uses civilian areas as shields for its military operations. While the strain on the U.S.-Isr...

Re: Netanyahu jeopardizes US relationship

Tens of thousands of people across Israel joined the families of hostages this weekend to protest against the government and call for the removal of Benjamin Netanyahu, as the Israeli prime minister grappled with one of the most serious threats yet to his coalition. The protesters in Tel Aviv, Jeru...

Re: More stupidity from Dana Nessel

I'm deeply frustrated with Michigan AG Dana Nessel's handling of the Flint water case. Despite promises of justice and accountability, it feels like we're seeing little to no real action or consequences for those responsible. How much longer must the residents of Flint wait for justice? The lack of...

Re: Trump compares Stormy to his daughter

Did Trump actually deny ever having sex with her, or was his denial about having an affair with her? There is a difference, but it might amount to what the definition of "is" is.

But I agree with bmw that, either way, it's not really relevant to this case.

Dear John was a pleasure of a show. I’m surprised more early 90s sitcoms haven’t caught on elsewhere.
I think they still play the reruns on AntennaTV

Re: RFK, Jr trying to show he belongs on the debate stage

... RFK, Jr. does have some good campaign material, but if you read his platform, it's full of extreme socialism. He's Ross Perot 2024. .... Not sure I understand what you were trying to say here.
