Vote Lance Enderle over Mike Rogers

When you vote it comes down to a choice. How will you decide who gets your vote?   • Some people just go by gut. If they like the guy they vote for him.   • Others simply go by how things are going right now. If times are good then they vote for the party in power. If times are bad then they vote for the other party.   I urge you to go at least a bit deeper than that.   I'd like you to get a fair understanding of each side's plans of action. And all actions have consequences.   Some of those consequences can cost you your money, job or worse.   Mike Rogers is bad for most Michiganders. Here are the first 4 big reasons:   1) ECONOMICS: Republican Mike Rogers still endorses the same exact failed Bush economic policies that got us into the worst recession in American history. Also, Rogers was against the Democratic actions that have created over 3 million jobs according to the non-partisan official CBO report (August 2010).   2) RAPE VICTIMS FORCED TO CARRY RAPISTS' OFFSPRING: Republican Mike Rogers is so extreme on abortion that he wants women who are the victims of rape to be forced to give birth to their rapist's offspring. I can't imagine the injustice of police detaining & supervising rape victims for 9 months until their rapists' spawn are born. Yet that is the necessary consequence of Mike Rogers' position.   3) OIL DRILLING: Republican Mike Rogers still wants to allow oil drilling in the Great Lakes. Even after the two oil spills in Louisiana this year. Incomprehensibly, somehow even after the oil spill in the Kalamazoo river, Mike Rogers wants to expand oil drilling.   Before the Louisiana oil spills, do you think there were residents there who voted for oil-loving Republicans thinking that an oil spill could never happen?   Once the oil spill started ruining their land and businesses do you think they wished they could go back in time and vote for someone with a better understanding about environmental dangers?   4) TAXES: Republican Mike Rogers desires a deceptive "Flat Tax". It's undeniable arithmetic that, assuming the same level of government services (cops, teachers, roads etc.), Rogers wants to raise taxes on everyone else in order to massively cut taxes for multi-millionaires & billionaires. This despite the fact that most of the wealthy are OK paying their share of taxes and aren't out there protesting that they even want further tax cuts.   Some Perspective; Highest Tax Rate under Presidents… Dwight Eisenhower(R) – 91% Richard Nixon(R) – 70% Ronald Reagan(R)   – 50% Bill Clinton(D) – 39.6% George Bush(R)  – 38.6% Now – 35% Barack Obama's proposal – 39.6% (but only for those who make more than $250,000 per year). The reason for this is to reduce the national debt by hundreds of billions of dollars. And yet Republicans are deceiving the American public by falsely claiming this tax rate is "Socialism". FACT: Obama is proposing tax rates that are less than they were during Reagan.   Conclusion: Mike Rogers is one of the extreme Republicans who has slipped under the radar for too long.
