Michigan's Rick Snyder has to be litigated. The double standard and 'slick' language is a give away.

...What does bother (click title to entry - thank you) the governor is that he feels that some of his reforms have been misunderstood, something which he says is partly a communication failure on his part....


Snyder is taking a lot for granted with State's Rights when it comes to his "Occupation Laws" that take democratic rights away from citizens while assigning them to City Control Czars.


In that case, Snyder believes States Rights is more than appropriate.


But, when it comes to States Rights in environmental law, Snyder believes The State of Michigan should NOT address any unique issue and only have federal laws apply.  Not that the Great Lakes create environmental dynamics that are different from Arizona,. but, simply that the ELEMENTS on the Periodic Table of Elements are the same everywhere.


Snyder is just one of THOSE Republicans that don't have the capacity to discern what is important to Civil Rights or Environmental Law, so long as the 'bottom line' is correct.  He is most probably the worst Governor Michigan has ever seen.


In separate context to litigate either of these issues is a good idea, but, when realizing he is 'Cherry Picking' his States Rights makes any litigation more viable.


Oh, yeah, the 'slick' language thing.


Let's see if we can detect a lie when he states like any adolescent "But I was Misunderstood."


And the fact that when Snyder's legislation to date shows a profound lack of understand of States Rights but only a meandering through law for ideological achievements, there is a very clear character issue.  The character issue at hand is "He ain't got what it takes."


The way I see it there is only a few reasons to be an ideologue.  As noted with Christie fallling back on 'recognizable patterns of behavior' like calling for unnecessary studies means manipulation of the electorate will be better defined for himself to protect his cronies.


And then there is the Snyder reason to be an ideologue, so he can appear to know what he is doing regardless of the laws it insults or the harm it does.  The changes will be so radical even if a higher court states he is out of line, what difference does it make.  After all when his czars get finished, even partially finished he can then argue that he was right regardless of the Rule of Law.


Protectionist motives actually.


Then take the ALEC directive.  If one is an ideologue and the dialogue is dictated by sameness across the universe, how then can a Governor like Walker ever be "W"rong?


Creating DOCTRINE, which is what ALEC (click here) DOES, makes becoming a cronied millionaire at the cost of democracy; idiots work.  Doctrine then becomes a national mind think results in Wall Street MADE EASY.  I think the POPULOUS name would be "Wall Street for Idiots."


The rare find in Republican Leadership is one that actually thinks for a living.  Their culture is so mired in "Rove's World of Success" that no one dare venture outside of it.  Besides being in the world of populism is where any Republican lives these days, although, there are a rare exception.  That populism is created by Murdoch and his cell phone hackers at the very least.  Gossip is everything these days, except, perhaps in Libya and the nations of the Arab Spring where they are truly seeing their world changing to allow for the air they breath.


But, Snyder was never qualified for the job.  He massacred a Michigan Small Business of which he had conflict of interest in the offices he held in the company.  


The point is that bringing 'the quality' of leadership across a broad spectrum of government that can be documented as repeated and ideological while inconsistent in the understanding of The Rule of Law, is a viable challenge in any litigation against him or the misguided legislators.  When it is obvious exploitation of citizen's rights by destroying their local government and elected officials where no wrong doing can be cited or excluding the unique environmental needs of Michigan that are not legislated federally; the understanding that Snyder, like many of his cohorts, lean on ideology rather than sound understanding of governance.  That brings about a picture of incompetency that adds to litigation.  Incompetency when systemic and documented is a tool to clarify the understanding Snyder is misdirecting legislation in a way that is harmful to citizens and their inherent constitutional rights.
