Good for him. This kind of garbage has no place in our political landscape: Sen. Barack Obama has launched an all-out effort to block a Republican billionaire’s efforts to tie him to domestic and foreign terrorists in a wave of negative television ads. Obama’s campaign has written the Department of Justice demanding a criminal investigation […]
One of the Republican crime family finishes his sentence: Former congressman Bob Ney of Ohio has been released from a halfway house in Cincinnati after serving a sentence in connection with a public corruption scandal. Advertisement Ney has served nearly a year-and-a-half of his original two-and-a-half-year prison sentence. The sentence was reduced after he completed […]
Tony Snow died from colon cancer last night. Even though I didn’t agree with him much, there was still something about him I always liked. Perhaps it was in part to him being a hometown boy from Cincinnati. Please keep his wife and three children in your thoughts and prayers.
And the Waters Flowed Originally uploaded by ebbandphlow A great shot of Fountain Square in Cincinnati. I decided to do some local searching on Flickr tonight and came across this shot and instantly fell in love. When I did my final for photography 20 years ago, my project was night shots of Cincinnati. I had […]
McCain is in it knee deep when Klein is even going after him: Hagee is a loose cannon Revelation literalist who believes that a Greater Israel–including the Palestinian territorities–will presage Armeggedon and the Rapture. He isn’t a big fan of Roman Catholicism. This is an interesting political situation for McCain, who angered wingnuts by–honorably–dissing Cincinnati […]

I only post about this because I have known Bobby Burck most of my life. We grew up in the same town, just north of Cincinnati: One of New York’s top tourist attractions, a guitar-playing cowboy dressed only in a pair of underpants, boots and Stetson hat, is reportedly suing the Mars candy corporation for […]
So we get an airplane and helicopter collide (other reports is that it was two airplanes) and crash today in Sharonville, Ohio – a subdivision just north of Cincinnati. The local news is taking eyewitness callers, and Channel 5 gets a doozy: Out of the numerous callers I have listened to, this is the only person that […]
I posted earlier this week about Cincinnati billionaire Carl Lindner and his deep pockets for the GOP. As you recall, Lindner was the CEO of Chiquita during the time they were supporting terrorist organizations in South America. In that post I directed the readers to Newsmeat to check out Carl’s past donations. I also noted that […]
From this past Monday night’s debate: Blackwell’s little baseless attack (something the liar is familiar with) has had some serious reprocussions. This is from the conservative Findlay Courier: We’ve been following Ken Blackwell’s career for years. Our file on him is more than an inch thick. We’ve talked with him personally and come away impressed […]
