So much for the culture of integrity...

  1. Speaking of integrity Jeff, I have two questions:
    1. Why did our Pres. Elect Obama accept $50,000 "inaugural donation" money from Stan Chesley?
    2. Why did Joe Deters, a REPUBLICAN Hamilton County Prosecutor, start working for Stan Chesley on Fri. Jan. 2,2009?(Cinn. Enquirer article dated 1/2/09,on-line-you should read the 103 comments people left!)Is that a good thing for the Republican party? Surely Republican Deters has to be aware of the fact Stan Chesley is CURRENTLY being SUED in Boone County Ky. Court, by 440 fen-phen victims, because he stold over $11 MILLION from them! And SURELT Joe Deters, a REPUBLICAN, must know Chesley is already being charged with ethical violations by the Bar, and even now faces much more trouble for other fraud. Is this the kind of public servant, a REPUBLICAN, you want to represent the GOP?

  2. Anon, You are preaching to the converted.

    I believe that our elected officials on either side of the aisle should be LEADERS not just elected.

    Although I must admit I am not that familiar with the Deters situation, I am much more up to date on this side of the river.

  3. I especially liked this part of Crowley's most recent column:

    "However, none of the relationships involving Edelen, Babbage and Coldiron appear to be illegal. The deals the three were in were disclosed to administration officials and took place before Edelen and Coldiron took their state jobs. Comparisons to the Fletcher administration are, at least at this point, a stretch, to say the least."

    Whoops, that doesn't fit in with your talking point. I wonder how fast you can delete comments on here.

  4. Don't worry, we won't be removing comments no matter how rediculous or left wing they are.

    It's better to allow everyone to see what the thought process on the left really is.
