Jennifer Granholm appears to have come down from her DNC high

Sep. 12, 2012 6:29am Eddie Scarry

If your first impression of Jennifer Granholm, former governor of Michigan, was formed during her absolutely hysterical Democratic convention speech last week, you either wanted more or less– way less.

On the Monday edition of her Current TV show, Granholm said she was “shocked” at the reaction her speech generated. (The Washington Post‘s Chris Cillizza remarked the day after the speech that, “24 hours later” he was “still totally baffled by” it.)

Either way, it appears Granholm has simmered from her boiling point. Here’s a clip from her show yesterday in which she makes the case for “Made in the U.S.A.” using an Expo dry erase marker. She says seeing the phrase made her feel so good she wanted to buy more, “but we only have one dry erase board.” While Granholm clearly cares about the issue, there’s no Oprah-like yelling involved.

Ole Grandstand forgot quite a few facts in her DNC speech like President Bush gave GM and Chrysler money before $17.5 billion December 2009 before they went bankrupt. She also assumes every GM and Chrysler job would have been lost if the companies went bankrupt–wait a minute–they went bankrupt anyway?! The only thin BHO did was flush an estimated $25-30 billion we will never see again. If you do the math for the jobs that were left after Saturn, Pontiac, Hummer shut down and the 1600 dealers closed we spent over $350K per job that still exists. Not a good return on investment. BTW She claimed nearly a half million people owe their jobs to Obama–Only 70K work for GM so where did she get the rest–out of her a$%?

Grandholm is being a ditz. Nothing is “made in Oakbrook, IL”. Companies are headquartered in Oakbrook, IL (like McDonalds). People do not have homes in Oakbrook, they have estates. I don’t know where Expo markers are made, but with the highly volatile solvents in them, they are not made in Oakbrook, IL and probably not in the US. Newell Rubermaid, the makers of Expo markers, has plants all over the world. On NR site it says the Legal dept is in Oakbrook, IL — that would be about right.

Would be interesting to see how many of these companies Jinny touts are non-union OR have substantially replaced union workers with the automated machines that are responsible for producing “American craftsmanship”!

BTW, Jinny, isn’t it “crafts-person-ship”? Aren’t you forgetting the women, transgender and persons-of-indeterminable gender?

Sorry, I don’t have time to do the research, I have a job in a business that I created.
