Blame the Governor!

Another front page article from the Chronicle "Poor economy is pushing more to food programs" (No link, buy the paper!) OK, the Michigan economy is slow, and Muskegon's economy is slower than the rest of the state and more folks are utilizing whatever free resources available. No surprise. But if Georgie Bush is responsible for the terrible US economy, why isn't Jennie G to blame for our terrible state economy? And why not a front page expose on the mayors and county commissioners for wrecking Muskegon County's hope for a sound economic future? Huh? Maybe because most people have heard of 9-11? Maybe because most folks realize Jennie and the Muskegon Jets inherited a whole heap of problems from their predecessors? Just maybe? It seems to me that Grandholm and Muskegon County's leaders have done a pretty decent job so far. Same with Georgie. Oh, and by the way, the US economy is pretty good, not terrible.
