I would have been impressed if she did this in 2006 or 2005 and not now. She is a cheerleader that hops on any bandwagon that toots the loudest horn or gets her the most votes.

You bet, go Gov. the people of michigan can keep on giving you all the money you want to make to make you sound good. The Goverment of this state just keeps on helping themself to our money. No wonder everyone is leaving. Annie

I think that if Michigan is really going to lead the nation in green technology, that this is the right thing to do. I also think that shopping malls and government office buildings could benefit from installing solar panels. They aren't money makers, but they could cut costs--paying for themselves in the first year, then saving us money in the long run.

And just who's paying for this????? Meanwhile, many Michigan families can't pay their bills..and are struggling to purchase food for their families...AND now Granholm is on this band wagon of GREEN?!!! Give me a break! Taxpayer dollars are paying for this.. And her lavish trips overseas..SHE is the biggest spender in MICHIGAN! She's living it up, while our bills increase! What's next? This is more then a stupid/dumb idea, Winter will be Freezing in that house..as the sun isnt common during that season... BUNDLE UP Jenny!!
