What a nice surprise on this Fourth of July to read that our Governor Rick Snyder has vetoed a set of voter suppression bills passed by the Republicans here in Michigan. While us Lefties may have plenty of disagreements with Snyder, we should also acknowledge that he is not among the loony variety of governors elected in several other states (Wisconsin, Florida, et al). He has not waged the sort of wedge politics that Walker has in Wisconsin. It's nice to have disagreements with political opponents without that sort of divisiveness. Despite our differences, I think Snyder (unlike Walker) wants to be governor of all the people in the state, not just the fringe on the Right.
So here's to you Governor Snyder...have a great Fourth of July.
