For all their talk about keeping government out of our lives and pursuing freedom, the Republican Party sure has a funny way of proving it. First up is this story out of Georgia: The City Council of Nelson has approved an ordinance that requires each head of household to own a gun. The legislation passed […]
Cincinnati’s iconic skyline has been called one of the most beautiful around. One building that helps make up that skyline is the Chiquita Center. Today Chiquita has announced that they are moving their operations from Cincinnati to Charlotte, North Carolina: Chiquita Brands International, Inc. will relocate its headquarters to Charlotte, N.C., the company announced Tuesday […]
This is a real sign of the times: A small but growing number of cash-strapped communities are printing their own money. Borrowing from a Depression-era idea, they are aiming to help consumers make ends meet and support struggling local businesses.

It looks like ABC’s poorly handled debate might have made an impact on the decision: The North Carolina Democratic Party has dropped plans for an April 27 debate, which would have been moderated by CBS’s Katie Couric.
