Davison Community Schools is indoctrinating young students in the tenets of socialism.

I recently came into possession of a Hahn Intermediate School hand-out that was openly discussed in a sixth grade class.  The hand-out was titled: “Spatial Inequality in Mexico City: From Cardboard to Castles, Chapter 9” and is eight typewritten pages long with…

 The Governor has been hard at work trying to twist a few arms to get our legislators to vote to expand Medicaid. This is a bad idea and could potentially cost our state BILLLIONS. Please take the time to contact these folks in the MI Senate and urge them to vote NO on medicaid expansion in Michigan.

Here is a list of the Senate Appropriations members, with contact info. (Some have an e-mail address listed, others use an online comment form.)



All the state senators…

LAPEER — The LCS Board of Education is expected to take up a secondary education program proposal (grades 6-12) when it meets Thursday at 7 p.m. To accommodate a larger than usual turnout for a typical meeting, the board has moved the meeting location from its administration office to the cafetorium at Zemmer Middle School, 1920 W. Oregon Road.

The current plan under development by Lapeer Community Schools is to close Lapeer West to make Lapeer East the district’s main…

If you want to learn about the Patriot Act there is an excellent YouTube video with speaker Judge Napolitano: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UN9n6cVQp4I   The video is about 35 minutes long and the judge begins speaking about the Patriot Act at the 21 minute mark.  Representative Candice Miller voted in Congress FOR the original Patriot Act and then again voted FOR to…

Davison Schools Superintendent Eric Lieske has short-changed Hahn Intermediate and Middle School students, their parents, and the taxpayers of the school district regarding the Collins Field Track which is adjacent to the two schools.  This track is used by all fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students in the Davison School District.  In June 2012 my letter to the Davison Index describing the deplorable and unsafe…

Michigan Supreme Court Justice Diane Hathaway filed resignation papers on December 20, 2012, (but it was not made public until January 19, 2013) just ahead of Federal Prosecutors filing fraud charges against her involving a real estate deal.  You can read about it here:  http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/01/19/michigan-justice-fraud/1848109/

This is just another example of…

This past month we in Michigan have witnessed Republicans who acted very courageously and Republicans who acted very cowardly.  The courageous Republicans were Governor Snyder and the Republican State Senators and State Representatives who passed legislation guaranteeing the Right To Work.  These courageous men and women withstood verbal and physical intimidation and abuse to advance freedom for all working individuals of this state. They deserve high praise and…

On Tuesday October 2, I attended the Lapeer County Tea Party Patriot’s meeting regarding the six ballot proposals.  After the speaker, Vinny - from the Mackinac Center, finished his presentation, I asked him the following question: “How is it that the Michigan Constitution can be amended by a simple majority vote on a petition submitted by group of people?”   Vinny responded by saying he basically agreed that it was a good idea for the people to be able to directly…

LAPEER COUNTY —…

It seems to me that our  Lapeer Community Schools Board of Education members and Administration should be accountable for the results of their actions just as they expect our kids to be responsible for their actions and not "sweep things under the rug" when mistakes have been made.



 Just like corporations, banks, cities, counties and states, our school districts are evaluated on how efficiently and fiscally responsible they operate their districts. Our district…

I attended the Lapeer Tea Party meeting on the evening of July 3, 2012 to hear the invited speakers -Michigan Supreme Court Justice Stephen Markman and District Judge Colleen O’Brien, both of whom are seeking election to the Michigan Supreme Court.  Justice Markman is seeking re-election and Judge O’Brien is seeking election to an open seat to be vacated by Justice Kelly due to age term limits.  After the meeting, I went home and did some online research on both…

As I read in the June 24th edition of the Lapeer County Press, I see that our district looks to finalize the sale of the now closed Hadley and Elba elementary buildings. On the face of it, it seems like good news. The district will be out from under the burdens that unused buildings cost us to maintain. Also, this will mean money into our fund for repairing the buildings that we are still using. According to the paper, the combined sale of $250,000. This is good news, but what is…
