Frivolous lawsuits take valuable time and money from the citizens of Ohio. Unfair and onerous lawsuits, under the guise of the "little guy" vs evil corporations and mythical "pain and suffering" rulings, are costing Ohio jobs as well as valuable time and money. Judges that have the ethics and morals of a cathouse mouse write their names in their history books by rendering absurd and legally unsound decisions, at the expense of all Ohioans for their lawyer friends and their clients who receive the crumbs.
If Marc Dann and Rev Strickland want to play their little games fine by me as long as they do them on their on time and dime.
In 2006 Ohio was rated by the Institute for Legal Reform as 19th in litigation fairness.
In 2007 Ohio had sunk to 24th.
In 2008 Ohio sank further to 32nd.
It is my hope that the Rev and the perv will leave office and set up an ethics think tank.
Out of state.

If Batchelder Controls The Heat, Dann is Done
One of my heroes, Bill Batchelder, is looking into the debacle called Marc Dann. When and if Bill Batchelder finds what he needs Dann will be looking into a new line of work because Batchelder loves the law and the state of Ohio.
One thing is so certain as to take it to the bank, Bill Batchelder will follow the law. That is a fine testament. One which Dann wouldn't know if it bit him in the butt.
Batchelder examining how to oust AG Dann
During his nearly 40 years in public office, state Rep. William Batchelder often has found himself at the center of major battles.
He helped decide how the Ohio House should respond in the 1970s to campus uprisings and in the '90s to state lawmakers accused of skirting campaign finance and ethics laws.
Now, the Republican from Medina, a constitutional lawyer, has been given the task of researching the process House members would use to impeach Ohio Attorney General Marc Dann.
Dann, a Democrat, admitted Friday to having an extramarital affair with a subordinate, and he fired or accepted resignations from four employees for their part in a sexual-harassment scandal. He apologized but refused to resign.
Gov. Ted Strickland and other Democratic leaders have said the House will try to impeach Dann if he doesn't step down.
Speaker Jon Husted, R-Kettering, asked Batchelder to guide the House on how to follow a process that hasn't been used in nearly 200 years.
''I have selected Rep. Batchelder for this task for several reasons, paramount among them because he is respected by members of both sides of the aisle on matters of great importance,'' Husted said.

Begala & Hillary's Party Is Just Eggheads & Afro-Americans Without Whites
Boy, I love being fought over. It's more fun than being just another sex object for a Sadie Hawkins Soirée.
Plus, now I know just how truly them Democritters love me. Theys was jus playin shy.
This whitie come lately conversation is going to help them win in November .
Plus, now I know just how truly them Democritters love me. Theys was jus playin shy.
Mr. Begala, a Clinton supporter, said the party could not win in November with just “eggheads and African-Americans,” that the party could not ignore white middle-class voters. Ms. Brazile, who said she was not “undecided but undeclared” when it came to her choice for a candidate, shot back that Mr. Begala’s notions were dividing the party. (And that she’d chugged down many a beer with Joe and Jane “six-pack” in an effort to woo white voters.)

Hillary Only Now Rediscovers Whitey
Clinton makes case for wide appeal
Hillary Rodham Clinton vowed Wednesday to continue her quest for the Democratic nomination, arguing she would be the stronger nominee because she appeals to a wider coalition of voters — including whites who have not supported Barack Obama in recent contests.
"I have a much broader base to build a winning coalition on," she said in an interview with USA TODAY. As evidence, Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."
"There's a pattern emerging here," she said.
Yep, a pattern. It may be a pattern of remembering "working, hard-working Americans, white Americans" are due representation as well as all others. Pandering has its problems, as Hillary is finding out. It's a pattern of Democrats, when about to lose, rediscovering the rest of America.

The Purple Donkey In The Limousine
Frank Rich, who finds odious all things conservative, has a new piece up which should delight his entire audience, his editors.
The All-White Elephant In The Room
Rich does an adequate job of minimizing the heart and the intellect of "conservative" evangelical preachers and those they endorse. Rich even has a theory of why Jeremiah Wright's video gets more play than Hagge's or Falwell's, it is Wright's histrionics and black-theater. Is Rich the reincarnation of Jimmy the Greek who portrays Wright and other black preachers as better and prettier because of their blackness and history of slavery? Probably. It is the type of cheap shot Rich employs often if he can squirm it in against white conservatives in a way as to not to appear racist himself. Rich loves his gotcha moments as proof of his moral insight of all that is wrong about America, but Rich gets to his point in the last paragraph;
Anyone who does the math knows that America is on track to become a white-minority nation in three to four decades. Yet if there’s any coherent message to be gleaned from the hypocrisy whipped up by Hurricane Jeremiah, it’s that this nation’s perennially promised candid conversation on race has yet to begin.
Abolitionists, the Civil War, Eisenhower and all the people working to put race in its place, no place, have not been candid. Only Rich and his rich intellectual friends discussing "race", global warming and other priority issues in their limousine's and jets, just out of hearing of their chauffeurs, have been candid in their speech and actions, but they never seem to notice the elitist purple donkey in their midst. That would just ruin their pâté de foie gras. Talk about tragedy.

Lizard Head, With Class, States Democrat Fears
The Democrats wanted to use the race card to their advantage and it became the wild card that has gone out of control and they're worried. So worried they push out their favorite junk yard dog, Mister James Carville, to try and take Obama down because Obama hasn't been following the Democrat script of being the party of race not the party that elects race except where it benefits the Democrat Party.
"The Republicans will eat him alive" is what the Clinton campaign is telling the superdelegates. Hillary is the tougher of the two, the candidate you want on your side in a knife fight, a gender reversal that prompts Carville to indulge in some ribald humor: "If she gave him one of her cojones, they'd both have two."
Besides implying that the title Ms is a misnomer in this race, Carville implies that Obama can't go for the kill. Saying someone from Chicago can't kill is like saying someone from Las Vegas can't play poker. An anamoly for sure.
The race card for the Democrats has become the high card in their dead-man's hand and it may just kill them in this election. By not sticking to the script Obama has cornered the Clinton-Democrat Party. If Hillary gets the super delegate vote, the democrats could lose significant numbers of betrayed black voters causing them to lose the White House as well as down ticket. If the Clinton-Democrats cave, well, the Democrats have a candidate so damaged as to be considered congenitally so, they lose again, but this time they lose so bad it will make McGovern look good.
One could say the Democrat's chickens are coming home to roost.

"They don't want the whole pie," she told the women. "There are some who do, but most Americans feel blessed just being able to thrive a little bit. But that is becoming even more out of reach."
"If we don't wake up as a nation with a new kind of leadership...for how we want this country to work, then we won't get universal health care," she said.
"The truth is, in order to get things like universal health care and a revamped education system, then someone is going to have to give up a piece of their pie so that someone else can have more."

Many of you are well enough off that the tax cuts may have helped you. We're saying that for America to get back on track, we're probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.
We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what is best for society.
Barack Obama's website
Obama's campaign Web site reads, "Obama will protect tax cuts for poor and middle class families, but he will reverse most of the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest taxpayers."
"Obama will make available a new national health plan to all Americans, including the self-employed and small businesses, to buy affordable health coverage that is similar to the plan available to members of Congress."
"Obama will raise the minimum wage and index it to inflation to make sure that full-time workers can earn a living wage that allows them to raise their families and pay for basic needs such as food, transportation, and housing."
Barack Obama
"Well, obviously, race is still an important factor in our society. There is still discrimination. There’s still barriers to opportunity. But I think what’s important to note is that Dr. King went down to Memphis as part of the poor people’s movement and recognized the link between economic justice and racial justice. But on the economic front, we just found out-- that last month, we lost 80,000 jobs, over 200,000 so far this year. And so often that is just disproportionately impacting African American and Latinos.
Having an agenda that ensures economic justice, that everybody can get paid a decent wage and find a job. That part of Dr. King’s dream has not yet been achieved. And I think has to be one of the challenges to America in the coming decades."
Bill Clinton
"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.

Corker calls gas tax suspension "pandering extraordinaire"
U.S. Sen. Bob Corker called a federal gas tax holiday proposed by Republican colleague and presidential candidate John McCain “pandering extraordinaire” today.
Hey Corker, why don't you pander? I could use 40 cents off right about now. I know, the gas tax builds and maintains roads, but how about all the other wacky taxes? Can't we use the taxes used to support the left handed lesbian nun mother earth chorus for highways. That way you can make the gas tax suspension permanent, drill for some oil and build some refineries.
Or is it "pandering extraordinaire" to state what you all in congress should be doing?

Obama & The Weathercouple
Obama has always been less than truthful about his friends and families so it isn't surprising that he would fib about Ayers and Dohrn, aka, the happy bombers. They are a power couple as dangerous as Bill & Hill though Bill & Hill have a longer and more populated line of unexplained deaths in their past.

Dems 2008: Elizabeth Wurtzel on Barack Obama’s other friends, the “Weathercouple” [Karl]
Apparently, back when he was running for state senate, Barack Obama had fund-raising events at the home of Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, and there’s been some press about the senator’s friendship with this controversial Weathercouple. Many reporters are well aware, even though Mr. Obama has described his connection to Ayers and Dohrn as “flimsy,” that the senator’s relationship with his radical Hyde Park neighbors is actually quite warm, even close.
The Democrat's nominees really are Worse and Worser.

Smoking Kills Gays Who Kill Free Speech?
From Terry Frank
Ryan Sorba has authored a book called the Born Gay Hoax. He was invited by the Smith College Republicans to deliver a speech that was promptly interrupted by gay activists who climbed through the windows. They eventually overtook the podium and college officials called off the speech.
I don't smoke anymore, but I will not deny that I enjoyed smoking immensely and I am happily married. Does that mean I get to add 10 to 30 years onto my life?
Epidemiological studies are scientific plastic surgery. One gets what one wants, but it's obvious to others.

While the medical consensus is that smoking knocks from two to
10 years off an individual’s life expectancy, the IJE study found that
homosexual conduct shortens the lifespan of “gays” by an astounding “8 to 20
years” — more than twice that of smoking.
“[U]nder even the most liberal assumptions,” concluded the study,
“gay and bisexual men in this urban centre are now experiencing a life
expectancy similar to that experienced by all men in Canada in the year 1871. …
[L]ife expectancy at age 20 years for gay and bisexual men is 8 to 20 years less
than for all men.”
I don't smoke anymore, but I will not deny that I enjoyed smoking immensely and I am happily married. Does that mean I get to add 10 to 30 years onto my life?
