The Michigan taxpayers are paying this guy big bucks to spend most of his time campaigning for office. Peters doesn't think that's fair either. At least didn't use to think so. On July 13, he said on Off the Record:

"I certainly think from an ethical standpoint you should not be a public official, you should step down once you file with the FEC that you are a candidate for Congress. You should not be an employee of the state of Michigan. I feel pretty strongly about that from an ethical standpoint."

Apparently his ethics are slipping as of late.

He finds nothing wrong with pocketing lots of money from Michigan moms and dads while running for office. Nor does he find anything wrong with lying about what he is doing either.

Perhaps the problem with our universities isn't a lack of funding. Perhaps it is an abundance of corruption that is plaguing us.

Peters next move is to host a policy forum next week during the CMU v. WMU football game. Clearly, Peters doesn't want a lot of students to attend, which seems pretty irresponsible and counterproductive.

Expected to participate in the forum? Senator Mike Bishop and Representative Craig DeRoche (along with our favorite Senator Andy Dillon!). Attending the forum seems to be an endorsement of Peters work. Are Bishop and DeRoche ready to step up and denounce the actions taken by the part-time professor, part-time congressional candidate?

I guess we'll find out.

In the meantime, I encourage Students Against Gary Peters to keep up the good work!
