    Political poll includes two prominent Ohioans

    It's long been my standard practice when responding to these political polls, that I rotate each answer based on the most liberal perspective, followed by the most conservative reply. I like to think this adds to the polling's margin of error. We all should do our part, to be sure.

    Interesting, if divisive, days for the Ohio GOP
    Lastly, it also would be most professional if the local GOP would refrain from political endorsements in the May 6 primary. After all, as everyone knows, your candidates of choice already have a leg up, don't they?

    Winter: No retreat, no surrender
    As a card-carrying RidgeRunner, I do not know the meaning of the word "quit." Well, technically, I do know what the word means. But you get my point.

    Liberals furious over Obama's threat of executive orders
    Many liberals, in recent responses to public criticism of Obama's executive order threat, are burning up the Internet in order to let me know how many times former liberal presidents like Bush I, Bush II, Nixon and Reagan (yes, even Reagan, my favorite president of the past 50 years, was a liberal on fiscal policy) signed executive orders.

    Lawyers, guns and money (in no particular order)
    I know of a number of local public officials who have concealed carry. Some of their spouses do as well. I doubt any of them would enjoy being part of such a database. (If any of them advise to the contrary, they are welcome to submit a letter to the editor.)

    Network television can declare victory
    Without firing a shot, television has won. The perpetrators of this audio and visual medium have achieved their ultimate goal of mass manipulation.

    Parents understand
    The courtroom testimony was, at times, heartbreaking for both families. Yet, both families remained civil and exercised proper restraints throughout the testimony. A few of the victim's family members did politely walk out during some rather graphic description of the crash aftermath by the defendant's attorney. That's understandable.

    Suggested contribution$: Ju$t $end ca$h
    Much like the Asian flu in late winter, I've always tried to avoid public office. (And yes, for those pedantic English majors out there, I did, indeed, intend to imply that the Asian flu has tried to avoid public office.)
