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...
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.
– Where’s...

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
Blog readers: Here’s my column from the June issue of Cincy Magazine. From a distance, Cincinnati looks clean and corruption free. Not so. Read on.EZ Money: Your tax dollars at work creating jobs — for Junebug the drug dealer
By Peter Bronson
Cincinnati is like a big family. It has rowdy celebrations, domestic disputes, checkbook troubles, crazy aunts in the attic and family secrets nobody...
Issue 1 is just Obama stimulus spending with a Buckeye brand
Cincinnati Tea Party
Nothing unmasks the hypocrisy and schizophrenia of the Republican party like Issue 1 in Ohio. Business leaders who normally condemn socialism and defend free markets swoon for it. But real conservatives see it for what it is: welfare for a few hand-picked corporations, chosen by the state.
The backers, including many powerful business groups, hospitals and state institutions...
A night of yellow ribbons and red-white-and-blue patriotism
Matt Maupin
At the door they handed out rubber wrist bands that said, “Let Us Never Forget.” That, in a few words, was all that really needed to be said at the Yellow Ribbon Scholarship Fundraiser last night at the Oasis in Loveland.
Of course, there was more to say. The Maupins were there, honoring their son Matt, whose capture and MIA status captivated Cincinnati and broke our hearts for...
