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.

‘For $200, Alex, I’ll take Political Obscenities. Ummm… What is Obamacare?’
She called herself “The Maid of Shalom,” or sometimes she signed as ”The Perfect Woman.” I remember those handwritten letters well, because they were loaded like hand-grenades with the most creative and colorful threats.
The one I remember best said she would visit my home while I was sleeping and castrate me with a dull, rusty knife. Yikes.
And then there was the time I...
First fatality of Obamacare? Newspapers’ credibility.
Today’s Sunday Enquirer is a keeper. And not for a birdcage or as a training aid for housebreaking your puppy. It should be stashed away in a drawer in the basement so someday, 20 or 30 years from now, you can haul it out when your grandchildren ask, “What happened to newspapers? Why did they go out of business?”
Start with the story on page one, Driehaus still leans toward ‘no.’

Obama does an Olbermann – makes Supreme Court the Worst Person in the World
Show a little respect
“Democrats” and “tradition” seldom appear in the same sentence, unless the left is doing something to trash a tradition — such as traditional marriage, prayer in public, strong defense, respect for the military, free speech, etc.
But who knew Democratic presidents would be so good at establishing new traditions?
We can thank Jimmy Carter for the Sore...
Will the Mass. uprising spread to Ohio too?
Sorry for the absence here lately. I went back to work last week, so I haven’t had as much time for blogging, but I hope to get back to it regularly.

Coming soon to a political theater near you
They say that life sometimes imitates art. If so, life in 2010 could look like bad movies and lame remakes of good ones.
"Whaddya mean I get 30 seconds to discuss 2,000 pages of boondoggle Obamacare?"
Mr. Smith Goes to Purgatory: Let’s assume for a minute that there really is a noble, innocent, Jimmy Stewart-style “Mr. Smith” in Congress. I know, you are more likely to run...
2009 — The Year of the Snake
Sen. Harry Reid -- Poster Boy for Corruption
I can hardly wait to forget 2009 and move on. But as it slinks out the door like a guilty dog that just lifted its leg on our Christmas tree, let’s launch a well-aimed kick or two.
Mine will land on the skinny backside of Harry Reid, who is now the Poster Boy for Corrupt Government.
He made sure that the biggest, most radical and socialist legislation...
Take your socialized medicine — or else
"It's time for your shot of Obamacare."
Good column today by Mona Charen, calling Democrats the “Nurse Ratched” of health care.
Such as:
“But like a neurotic who can never perceive the self-inflicted nature of his troubles, Democrats cannot or will not see that much of what is wrong with America’s health-care system is government-caused. The patient has a 104-degree...
Cincinnati gets the craps
Sorry, I couldn’t resist that headline. But thanks to ex-mayor Charlie Luken, Hamilton County Commissioner Todd Portune, more than $32 million spent by casino investors and 53 percent of voters, Cincinnati will get the craps — plus the black jack, roulette wheels, slots and other gambling in a casino on Broadway Commons.
I am not a fanatical opponent. I just think it’s a loser’s...
