Political Chaos

Well, at least it’s orderly chaos….

Governor Granholm to give ‘State of the State’ Address

Just a note that Governor Granholm will deliver her “State of the State” address tonight at 7:00pm.  You can find it on any local Michigan channel and the remarks should be posted on her State website afterwards.

You can also find it on MichiganLiberal.com and BloggingForMichigan.com – two wonderful progressive blogs which I follow on a daily basis (and wish I had more time to post on)

So far, details have been sort of mum about exactly she’ll talk about.  We have been hearing about proposals to reduce state government from 18 to 8 departments over the next few years.  Also, other suggestions such as de-funding the state fairs in Detroit and Escanaba and asking State Universities to freeze tuition for a year (hellz yes!) have been rumored.  The other big question is will she address the incoming (hopefully) federal stimulus money.

I’ll be watching on my Blackberry in the lobby waiting to go see SPAMALOT in Detroit tonight.  I’ll try to post something about the address in the next few days.
