Questions

Why doesn't Republican Rep. Paul Gillmor (OH-5th) tell the truth about Ohio's economy? Gillmor, who once lived in Old Fort, Ohio, but now lives in Dublin, Ohio, spoke recently at a Rotary meeting. (By the way, if Gillmor lives in Dublin, how can he use his son's address as his home address on his driver's license? Just asking.) According to the Delphos Herald, Gillmor said, I would like to see President Bush’s 2003 Tax Relief package made permanent. Since the package was put in place, the economy has improved with five million new jobs..." Five million new jobs? Really? Gillmor must not have seen the report by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation that said that Ohio's economy is one of the worst in the country. Gillmor and the other Ohio Republicans have done nothing to increase jobs in Ohio. It is really pathetic that Gillmor and the rest of the Republicans continue to lie about Ohio's economy.

Why would the Knox County Commissioners keep pushing for a bike path at the intersection of the 3rd most dangerous intersection in the state of Ohio? Why won't the commissioners listen to ODOT? Aren't they interested in the public's safety? Link

The good people of Knox County should call their county commissioners and ask them why they keep wasting government time and money on a project that would be dangerous to the health and well-being of its citizens. Let Tom McLarnan, Allen Stockberger, and Bob Wise know that they should stop endangering the lives of Knox County citizens while they promote a project that was deemed unsafe by the Ohio Department of Transportation.

Did you get your invitation to the annual Ohio Republican Party golf outing? No? Can't afford to golf because the Ohio Republicans have lost jobs for Ohio? You might want to visit the golf outing with your signs and t-shirts and let them know that while they are playing golf with lobbyists and big contributors, you are feeling the results of their failures and corruption.
