Liberals like Ted Strickland are sore losers
Union protesters call Gov. Scott Walker a "Hitler" for asking them to contribute to their pensions.
Former Gov. Ted Strickland calls the guy who beat him a “tyrant” while whipping union protesters into a frenzy at the Capitol in Columbus.
What a classy guy.
In Wisconsin, Democrats who lost the argument and the election also lost their self respect and went running from the...
A new year, and new random opinions
Nancy Pelosi hands the gavel to House Speaker John Boehner -- finally, two months too late
Just in case anyone is still reading this blog, here are some random thoughts on a few topics — sort of in the category of, “You know what really chaps my hide?”
One of the most demeaning social trends is the way people get laid off or fired. These days, when someone loses a job, they also cease...
‘Weeper of the House’ was a tantrum by the liberal press
On Veteran’s Day, the Cincinnati Enquirer ran two excellent features that honored the meaning of the day and the sacrifices of veterans who have served our country. There was a great photo essay by Michael Keating, showing the faces of American patriots and their recollections. And the story by John Erardi, about his uncle who never came home from WWII but lived on in the mythology and history...
You don’t say: Election fraud at CPS gets more curious and serious
When I worked at the Tucson Citizen as editorial page editor, our editor in chief would sometimes send dreaded memos to the newsroom headlined, “You don’t say.”
“What started the fire?” he would demand. “You don’t say.”
“What happened to the dog that got loose on the highway and caused the accident? You don’t say.”
And so on.
I thought...
Obama and Comrade Pelosi are a blessing in disguise
The more I learn and read about the background and history of President Obama, the more scary he gets. When I consider how our press and a huge part of our voters stuck their heads in the quicksand and refused to even look at his past, or his lack of qualifications, or his radical record and fanatical anti-American friends, I am disgusted.
And yet…
More and more I think he is a blessing in...
Who cares about voter fraud? Not the Enquirer
Last Sunday, the Cincinnati Enquirer told us what everyone already knew — that the First District rematch between Steve Driehaus, D-Pelosi, and Steve Chabot, R-Reagan, is a diorama that shows the whole national picture. It has attracted national attention as a proxy for everything voters are angry about this year — Obamacare, runaway spending, crushing debt, Pelosi radicalism, abortion,...
My latest column and assorted trail mix from the opinion jar
I am four days back from vacation, which is equivalent to 100 light years away from the beach. So as I was returning to the blog to post my latest column from Cincy Magazine (scroll down if you can’t wait), I grabbed a handful of salty comments from the opinion jar. Here goes — and many thanks, as always, to those of you who still drop by here, even when nobody’s home.

Liberal media: Close enough for government work
Your government-subsidized media at work
During 30 years in the newspaper business, I watched as the newsroom herd of independent minds followed the cowbell of liberal bias over a cliff. Every year it got worse, leading to the great leap for Obama that caused a cartwheeling free-fall of credibility. No wonder more than half the nation that calls itself conservative has turned its back on newspapers...
EZ Money: Your tax dollars at work creating jobs — for Junebug the drug dealer

Three cheers for giving Shepard Fairey the bum’s rush in Covington
Shepard Fairey mural in Covington, from the Enquirer
I guess the issue is settled. Covington has better taste and higher standards than Cincinnati.
The local media have been gushing about murals in Cincinnati by artist Shepard Fairey. You can hardly turn a page in town without stumbling on one of his Stalinesque works of art, “inspired” (shoplifted?) from Communist propaganda.
What...
