Brighter news than expected. The numbers seem to reveal a better situation than one might have expected with all the economy issues and higher gas/engery prices.
LIMA - National economic news might be bad, but that doesn’t appear to be keeping Allen County residents from spending.

Carnival of Ohio Politics #116
Love v. Lust - a good theme for this week’s 116th edition of the Carnival, especially as rendered by none other than William Shakerspeare in his Sonnet 116:
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to […]

Yes. Great line. “Let’s all be professional now”. I thought they ran as professionals and now we have begin to act like it? No doubt I am no fan of Dann. His actions have proved that reservation correct. I said “I was sorry” just doesn’t sound right. Perhaps Taft should have done the same when […]

Supreme Court Upholds Vote Photo ID
May 1, 2008 | Leave a Comment
The article calls it a blow to voter’s rights. They focus on the cost of a photo ID. However, at least in Ohio, other forms are accepted that don’t cost anything other than a bill from a Utility for example. Sure matching signitures is one way to go but if you ever looked at people’s […]

America, the land of opportunity and freedom. Sure, we have our own sickies to deal with. Why add to our sorrows. In Sidney Cornelio Nunez admits to having attempted to buy sex with a 10 year old. Sick. The only competition here is which sickie was worse… the ones that come here to commit such […]

Immigration Woes - We don’t reward following the rules
April 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Wonder why we have trained millions to come across the border? It’s not the fence. It’s the stupidity of the buracracy we have created (well…. they have created for us). Wonderful thing big government is. (Tongue n cheek if you couldn’t guess)

Strickland’s Long Winded Engery Plan
April 24, 2008 | Leave a Comment
More hot wind from the government’s energy plan. Sounds like more tax money for windmills rather than lowering taxes and bringing in more jobs, which are reluctant because of the taxes and needed tort reforms. But hey look at the windmills…
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Environmental advocates are seeing dollar signs in the hundreds of windmills they […]

Marc Dann Fails to do background check?
April 23, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Just a bit piece by the Boring Made Dull. It’s about now former Driver for Marc Dann until the man who carried a 9mm was a former felon. Sure make it tough on law abiding citizens but fail to do background check on someone so close in the government. Unless it was pushed aside by […]

I really think the story about the teacher burning crosses is probably a lie created by some parents. Or at least it’s being made out to be something more than reality. If he was doing this the issue wouldn’t be what was being burned into the arms. So that makes this motivated in a way […]

Local Preacher Goes After Negative Councilman Pitts
April 22, 2008 | 2 Comments
Pitts just doesn’t get it. At least one of the city preacher gets it and isn’t afraid to say so. Pitss even called the preacher an Uncle Tom. Doesn’t get any uglier than that. But who is betraying the community? Hortan spoke the truth and Pitts covers up his ugly behavior including his own son’s […]

That Evil Teacher Has a Bible On His Desk
April 18, 2008 | 3 Comments
Stop him. Don’t worry about the gangs, drugs and parents poor preparation of their children to be educated. Don’t worry about the rise in sexually transmitted diseases in this relativistic culture. DO WORRY when a teacher intimidates students not in words but with the presence of a Bible on the Desk. It should be the […]

A Drug Dealer get as plea agreement. An officer is charged. A drug dealer’s girlfriend is dead. All the makings of a suspense drama. Except in this case it’s real life in Lima. Unfortunately someone died in the raid but it appears that the lesson is that officer’s lives are on […]

Lethal injections are cruel. So say the ones wanting to end the death penalty. I say we look for some volunteers willing to provide the bullets for the firing squad. Make sure they are trained. The execution will be less lengthy and one way for Ohio to continue the execution of its worst violent citizens. […]

Our State Sen. Keith Faber supports and with good reason. It is on the way for the Governor to sign. Let’s see how he responds (being a minister and all) to giving the mother an opportunity to actually see the movement of her baby before “choosing” to have the baby terminated.

50% graduation rates in America
April 1, 2008 | Leave a Comment
No one asks what is wrong with the parents not preparing their children for education? People expect the government to solve the problem. When government steps in they not only make it worse in most cases it causes a false sense of security that shouldn’t exist. When only 50% graduate from the “no child left […]
