Cuts?

* You have to wonder why anyone thinks they should disassemble, eliminate, wipe out, a state agency/department without first studying the duties of the agency/department.  For example, why does Kasich always think that he needs to destroy things in order to fix them? (see Cleveland editorial cartoon----HERE.) 

In 1995, Kasich  proposed major cuts that would have been horrible.  The Free Lance-Star (May 9, 1995) lists some of the cockamamie cuts that Kasich proposed - - -

...Kasich also was ready to seek elimination of the departments Energy, Education, and Commerce,  as well as federal aid to the arts, humanities, and public broadcasting....

Is the Kasich of 1995 like the Kasich of 2010?  No. The Kasich of today is richer, more arrogant, and further removed from the lives of regular Ohioans.  Those years at Fox and Lehman Brothers contributed to his new persona.

Kasich has laid the groundwork for his relationships with teachers, firefighters, police officers, and all public servants. He has not been a friend of public education or veterans issues, as his votes as a member of Congress demonstrates.

* John Boehner's crying as shown on 60 Minutes, has become a topic of discussion by many.  What causes his crying?  Is he emotionally stable?  In the meantime, if you need a shirt to signify your concern, check out the CafePress and House of Ching:
