Holy Shit! Flordia Takes the High Road

Michigan Again Grabs the Low Road
After 60 Minutes did a piece on a preventable Michigan prisoner death, perhaps a death caused by abuse, ignorant Michigan Republican law-makers (I know: redundant) laughed it off. Rep. Alan Cropsey (R-DeWitt) speculated that "it must have been a slow news day".
And a political appointee in Michigan, Patricia L. Caruso, shrugs off criticisms of prisoner abuse and death. The voters weren't amused. If you watched her arrogant explanation on 60 Minutes last month ( basically "shit happens) you know she is Granholm's Rumsfeld.
Is this guy's critique of the system accurate? I'm betting yes. We're not going to save money cutting humane treatment for prisoners. We'll pay it all back and then some in lost law suits.
