Lost tribe of Westwood

Another week has past. Summer celebration is over as is Rothbury Music Festival. Why do they always put these on the same weekend. When the Air Fair was here, it would be on the same week as Summer Celebration. I'm sure it is decided by the same people who let the Fireworks Convention leave town and are trying to move the Clipper out of Muskegon. I look at all the vacant land around Muskegon Lake and see the possibility of growth and the chance to draw more people to Muskegon in a way that doesn't sell our souls (casino's). On the issue of casino's, If we do allow casinos. why just the Indians. These American Indians who want to save their lands, will turn around an deface it with casinos and rape the streams with gill net fishing. Not all Indians are like that, but the ones that are give the others a bad reputation.
On a different subject, the depression, or should I say recession. Prices keep rising, and salaries and jobs are going south. GM is the first to say that they will stop making big trucks and Gas guzzling SUV"S and put more emphasis on smaller cars with better gas millage. They has to loose billions of dollars and years of research to come to this conclusion? The Big 3 lost their short to foreign automobiles because of pure greed and the inability to think ahead. Let's make sure that their CEO's get huge bonuses and golden parachutes for retirement.
How about our presidential candidates, or as I like to say, "The Mr. America popularity contest". The best person isn't elected, but the most popular or the one with the most money. Both candidate are so under qualified for the job it's no wonder the economy is in such bad shape. We need scholars, not war hero's. We need intelligence, not rhetoric. We need action, not hot air. We need to set qualification for the presidency, not just popularity or party affiliation. The day we start doing that is the day we stop having clowns like Bush, Chaney, Clinton,Gore, and all the other clowns that have tried to be President. Big business and oil do run the country and are fronted by these clowns. What a sad state of affairs we have.
