Another reason not to vote for Obama.

It may be too late. We're already like 60 Trillion in debt if you do away with the Enron style accounting. That's more than all of the U.S. 401k Retirement savings combined. Even those are slipping away.

Don't worry about future MI Supreme court. pay attention to this NOV Election. I am not advocating for this candidate but forwarding this message as FYI. Look at Cliff Taylor, Hathaway and another (can't find info ..have the name here somewhere) Vote the entire ballot!
MI Supreme Court is on the non-partisan section of this Nov ballot.
Peace,
RAP

Vote All the Way - Vote Hathaway!


Now is the Time
Absentee Ballots will soon be arriving in mailboxes. It is very important to let your neighbors know that voting Straight Party Ticket is not enough to create the change Michigan needs on our Supreme Court. You need to FLIP THE BALLOT – GO TO THE NONPARTISAN SECTION and vote DIANE MARIE HATHAWAY for Supreme Court. Hathaway is the Democratic nominee, but you still must vote for her in addition to voting straight-ticket.
Absentee ballots are now available. You can vote absentee if you are:
Age 60 years old or older
Unable to vote without assistance at the polls
Expecting to be out of town on Election Day
Unable to attend the polls due to religious reasons
Appointed to work as an election inspector in a precinct outside of your precinct of residence

Request your AV ballot here.
Why We Need a Change in the Supreme Court for Our Environment
Examples of Cliff Taylor decisions that have harmed Michigan’s environment:
The Michigan Environmental Protection Act (1973) gave citizens rights and power to protect the environment and to stop pollution and destruction to the environment. Cliff Taylor restricted the right to sue to those who can show they or their property has been harmed. More Information

Taylor also voted in favor of corporate polluters and made it harder for people to hold accountable big corporations that cause sickness and death, and that are harming the environment by dumping cancer-causing waste (dioxin) into the state. More information

A Statement From Diane Hathaway on the Environment
Our Great Lakes, rivers and streams define Michigan. They are part of our culture and make us who we are as a people. That's why we need a Supreme Court that will be fair and impartial – not one that will side with big corporations eager to sell our water for profit. We need a Supreme Court that will follow the law, not throw out our state's 30-year environmental protection act to benefit big corporations at our expense. Michigan citizens deserve a Supreme Court Justice who upholds our laws and protects our Great Lakes from corporate polluters and those who would profit from the sale of our water.

Paid for by Judge Diane Marie Hathaway for Supreme Court
18525 Moross, Detroit, MI 48224
