Actually, Carl Levin IS a millionaire:

Debbie Stabenow reports a negative net worth of about 50K, but raised over 12 million last year for her campaign, so you can fill in the blanks about why that might be. How does someone with no personal fortune get to be the one put in the senatorial seat? Who does she owe? Why did they put her there?

I think the correct grammar is "..believe that only lawyers and hedge-fund kings deserve to live decently..." in the above sentence construction.

I leave it as an exercise for the student to find the remaining errors in the CONTENT of the rest of the paragraph. Ennui...

If you'd take off your import bigot glasses that seem to distort all you read, you'd realize that the issue isn't the tax breaks, it's the hypocracy of the senators involved in those particular transplant tax breaks in those states.

You must mean the side that people actually want to live on.

The only two states to have lost population in the last year are both actually deep Blue: Rhode Island and Michigan.

Let's put our thinking caps on, and think why that might be?

Oh... no jobs!!!

That's Corker's fault, right?

As a Corker constituent, I find that I agree entirely with how he has represented the interests of America, the interests of Tennessee, and the way he has represented me. I also really enjoy the way he gets under your skin.

I'm going to tell all my friends to vote for him based on the fact that he bugs prejudiced people up north. We really get a kick out of that sort of thing down here.

Goin' to Detroit Michigan,

Girl I can't take you.

Hey I'm goin' to Detroit Michigan,

Girl, you got to stay here behind.

Goin' to get me a job,

On the Cadillac assembly line.

I'm tired of whoopin' and hollerin'

Up and down the Mississippi road.

Oh I'm tired of whoopin' and hollerin'

Pickin' that nasty cotton.

Gonna catch me a bus up North,

I won't have to keep sayin' yessir boss.

For the record, Corker was acting in good faith other than the UAW wage cramdown which was just window dressing. Corker recently visited GM's engine plant in Spring Hill and had nice things to say about GM - disappointing the Detroit can do no right crowd, and he at least visited the NAIAS to learn something about the auto industry. Sen. Shelby, on the other hand, is either an idiot or deliberately lying about Detroit.

Prejudice isn't just confined to those geographic areas which are south of an arbitrary line named after a couple surveyors from the 1700's. When people who live north of that line act like their shit don't stink, I think it's fun as hell to stick their nose in their own rosebud, so they can smell the racism and prejudice in their own lives. It is just as disgusting as anything down south. Of course, people that deny that this is true, probably are living in ALL KINDS of denial about many many different things anyway. Makes me laugh like hell when I think about such fools.

"..that makes up for a century of lynching and Jim Crow..."

Hey man, racism and personal prejudice have caused problems from Watts to Washington DC and Tulsa. It wasn't just the South. One of the worst places was Detroit. Check this out:

That's right. Detroit. So climb down from that high horse, bozo.

"..If your senators are going to act like Detroit is stuck in 1975..."

Bozo, things are much worse now in Detroit than 1975. Wake up and smell the decaying corpse. Who moves INTO Detroit now?

"..Don't drip any bbq sauce on your white sheet..."

My sheets are blue. Ask my wife.

But I won't promise not to make you look in your own closet, even if it makes you so uncomfortable that you start attacking people you don't even know in Tennessee. I can see what kind of sheets you have folded in that linen closet of yours. Not pretty.
