I'll be hitting the blog list cull and add session again soon enough, and figured it would be a good time to highlight a couple of our Michigan based blogs.
One that I am glad to see back up and regular is the Hall of Record. A Natural Solution to Our energy Needs today talks about the use of Natural Gas for vehicles. I have commentary, but will share it when there is a field to place it in. (Hint) The Blog of Bodnar hits the national interest Republican presidential results of Iowa in Iowa Is Over Whats Next? Take a breath. Indeed. Jack McHugh at CapCon picks up the right to work story recently highlighted by Mitch Daniels of Indiana. Strong Support for Right-to-Work Measures in the Michigan Legislature reminds us that there are folks in Lansing that have been actively pursuing this even over the fear of the nerd and senate majority leader. Could cities in Michigan be the next to "ban the box"? The Wizard of Laws considers it in America's Newest Protected Class -- Felons! Keep the Crystal Ball warmed up wiz, and maybe some alka seltzer on the side. We'll need it. Conservative First has been gracious enough to pass a few gems over to this forum in the last year. A few of them you may not have seen, but he highlights the best over at the Western Right. Update [2012-1-5 7:29:0 by JGillman]: I HAD to add this. God Bless you Rose. Wayne County Taxpayers - Recalling Recall and Senate Joint Resolution 5 I am with you. (2 comments) Comments >> By JGillman, Section News
I hope everyone had a great Christmas.
The Lions did a nice job on Christmas Eve, and the goodies that always seem so plentiful this time of year proved once again, that being full doesn't mean you have to stop eating. Christmas day was spent recuperating. Getting out of the year thinner? Not an option.
Our newest thinning of the link love will start with the removal of Keepin' the Faith blog, which had as one of its last posts in 2009, a question: What is Conservatism? Among the answers: "Conservatism is a group of core principles, or virtues, that are not solely political. Conservatism plays out in a broad political sense that takes into account the 'whole person.' We value the spiritual, marital, ecclesiastical, economic, social, and moral aspects of individuals live. We respect these, and many infinite more, as criteria necessary for an individual to determine his or her own happiness. Indeed.
The next removal is the blog of Kevin Elsenheimer. Kevin is a good conservative who's political end came as the result of a timely newspaper blow up of a non issue during his narrowly lost run for a district judgeship. His blog hanging in the nether, and no longer updated Kevin Elsenheimer's blog" is now gone. Not posting for over a year, Life with Mr. O is off. That's it for the this round. Happy Monday!

Pull up the EZ Chair and the big screen. Somebody's days watching the Lions appears to be over. By JGillman, Section News
Midweek, a lot more going on in Lansing than you might think based on the few posts locally. Of course D Conservative has put a bit of work into his Redistricting analysis cross posted to us from The Western Right But who else is talking Michigan politics?
Start with Jack McHugh of the Mackinac Center, who thinks the DRIC discussion isn't one to embrace with Four Reasons Why the Tea Party Should Ignore Detroit Bridge Controversy At the Bottoms Up Blog, there is a Tea Party Report from Oceana County's Sunday gathering. Also a report and pictures from Saturday's affair in Lansing K-12 School funding suffering at the hands of Snyder? To give to 'higher education"? A Conservative Teacher thinks so. Over at The Rougblog, the motor city described as a city governed by the delusional lives in a state of delusion Traverse City Schools move a meeting to a never used time to avoid public input and objection. Bill at TCFamily.org thinks so as the LBGT agenda moves forward in Northern Michigan. And if you didn't see the post over at MTTM, a Seriously Condescending Upton Man gets all smart alecky with a constituent. If you know of any blogs not listed here that have to do with Michigan politics, then add them in the comments. (3 comments) Comments >> By JGillman, Section News
