Short and Sweet....

*  Democratic candidate for Ohio Secretary of State, Mary Ellen O'Shaughnessy, has received the endorsement of the  Ohio FOP. 

*  Have you figured out which Republican congressional candidate has received traffic tickets in Franklin County, Brown County, and Madison County?  Go visit the websites and do some searches.

* Do you know why Republicans dislike labor unions and teachers' unions?  Republicans are for cheap labor.  When their big corporate contributors and friends use cheap labor, they make more profits.  When John Kasich talks about "special interests" in the state, he isn't talking about his friends who are corporate lobbyists for banks, insurance firms, or coal companies. 

*  Congratulations to the Democrats for passing the unemployment compensation yesterday.  Republicans had used a filibuster to block the measure.  Did you know that the Republicans never stopped the extension of unemployment compensation under the Bush administration?

*  Have you looked at the chart for the Presidential Debt?  The administration of George W. Bush really increased the debt tremendously.  Check it out here.

*  By now you realize that Fox News and their right wing friends created a controversy where there was none.  They manufactured the charges against Shirley Sherrod.  I hope she gets her job back.
