* Other people have noticed the lack of initiative being shown by right wing, former bank lobbyist, Republican Rep. Steve Stivers (OH-15).
Desertabba blogspot noted that our district is represented by a "parrot." LOL. When will Stivers write a bill to increase jobs in the state??? So far, a lot of his sponsored legislation has been about rolling back consumer protections offered in the Dodd-Frank bill.
Tofochido has a list of "....Republicans who are holding the debt ceiling hostage..." Steve Stivers is on the list (and so are lots, and lots of familiar names).
The Obama Diary has a comment about Stivers, under this video.

I get the strange feeling that if President Barack Obama had been a white guy named John Smith, these Republicans would not be creating such chaos. There has to be something in these Republicans that makes them oppose President Obama, not for his programs, but because of his race.
*** If you take a look at the WARN Notices posted at the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services, you'll see some big layoffs coming soon at DB Schenker (39), BAX Global (652), Nexergy (120), and Franklin Boxboard (81). The list of layoffs on this page does not seem to include those that have happened or will occur at the Ohio Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Education, Transportation, Ohio Consumer's Council, etc. Is this all part of Gov. Kasich's JobsOhio plan? Is Kasich trying to run the state into the ground on purpose??????
