Chargers to stay in San Diego for 2016

And will leverage the bejesus out of the city. Happy the city has a chance to save them but am afraid they are going to get bent over in the new stadium deal. The NFL and Spanos' will get public money, the taxpayers get a home team that they can watch on TV.

And the 100 million guaranteed from the NFL will get consumed in planning fees billed to the NFL and then offset by numerous kick backs.

Shouldn't Obama be appointing a panel that will name a Governor of Michigan?

Since the state was able to take over local government of Flint, and now the state has failed and is asking for 100 million from the Feds. Isn't the next logical step for the Feds to take over? I expect Obama to appoint a new Governor by the end of the month.

Edit to add, SARCASM!

The Koch Bros. have pushed through the idiotic policy of state takeover of local governments.

Say what you want about Haley and her response

But that was hands down the best ever response to Obama, the others made asses of themselves, she didn't. And in Repubieland, that makes her the new star.
