During my weekend trip between Saginaw and Gratiot Counties, I admired the many yard signs (mostly Republican) placed along M-46. The usual suspects were present: Ken Horn, Bob Blaine, Dave Camp...ROGER KAHN. WTF Roger? You're not running for anything.

Hey, don't take our word for it, that "Rubber Stamp" bit; GovTrack.us classifies Dave Camp as a "rank-and-file Republican" . As in, stinks of corporatism and is unable to think for himself without regular prodding from party officials or lobbyists (same diff, especially if you're a politician of the same mold as John "59 lobbyists as campaign advisers" McCain). Do take a look at the content at the...

If there's one thing Dave Camp has been adept at doing, it's been maintaining the image that he is engaged in his district. In my college days, I used to get wave after wave of press releases from his office, and his press person used to provide me regular updates of what the Congressman was doing. One day, he showed up to the campus of CMU for an awards ceremony and got his photo snapped a couple...

It is time for a change...follow me after the jump to learn more about Andy. Andy's Bio: Andrew was born in...

From NBC's Mark Murray and Domenico Montanaro Rep. Chris Cannon (R-UT) endorsed Romney today. Per the campaign, Cannon will also join a “Congressional Whip Team” led by Reps. Jim McCrery (R-LA), Dave Camp (R-MI) and Buck McKeon (R-CA). Since the topic of immigration is back in the news -- after Tuesday's Democratic debate and Romney upping the ante on the issue -- we wonder if Cannon's past support...

Another example of how tolerance and politically correctness is killing America. U.S. Rep. Dave Camp is among lawmakers objecting because the U.S. Capitol's architect won't allow God to be mentioned in certificates of authenticity accompanying flags flown over the Capitol and bought by constitutents. “This is as insulting as it is absurd,” Camp said in a prepared [...]
