    Sharing the spirit of Christmas
    As Heather and her husband were driving to deliver the gifts, Chet who couldn't bear the thought of any child not having a "good Christmas," went straight, instead of turning down the road to the home. The Gibsons did a little more shopping, "so each child could have a new outfit to wear back to school after the holidays," in Chet's words.

    An open letter to U.S. House and Senate Republicans
    Let us also remind you that a great many potent conservative organizations and millions of conservative and liberty-loving voters do not believe in the divine right of incumbents to be re-nominated.

    It wasn't the messenger, it was the message
    I’m convinced that the Republicans really believe that most Americans are only interested in how much money they can make and ensuring everyone plays by the rules they have decided are the important ones.

    Jackson Township trustees urged to sign with SHJFD
    Signing with Mowrystown is the only choice that even makes sense for Jackson Township. We should have signed with them a year ago.

    A political ad that should be backfiring

    What the ad fails to point out is that all these countries might be considered socialist states by U.S. standards. All have some form of public health care, etc., and even Singapore, the most conservative, has free health care for the poor. Instead of making the point that liberalism is the death of economic competitiveness, the ad actually does just the opposite.

    Reasons to support Sen. Sherrod Brown
    Sherrod Brown has a better grasp of what drives Ohio's economy, evidenced by his understanding of the ramifications of letting the auto industry go bankrupt. Auto-related jobs in Ohio have increased by 6.1 percent, or 11,100 jobs, since 2009 because of Sherrod Brown's actions, and he's led the fight against China's illegal currency manipulation, which is costing Ohio jobs.

    Would JFK or FDR recognize today's party?
    Today’s Democrat Party is even less the party of old than the one that existed when I was a kid. It has become something most JFK and Roosevelt Democrats would not recognize.

    Remember 2009 when gas was less than $2 a gallon?
    I can give two examples of the vast difference between these two candidates. A vote for Romney would mean a big decrease in gas and electric costs, while a vote for Obama would mean a continued rise in the cost of gas and electricity.

    Many like socialism more than they will admit

    The funny thing is, when you put the labels aside and start drilling down on the individual issues, most people are a lot more agreeable to socialism than they want to admit.
