The Self-Inflicted Economic Death of Ohio Once known as the Mother of Presidents, Ohio is now getting poorer, older and dumber – and making all the wrong moves to reverse the situation.And that may actually be a plus for Barack Obama. His party is finding that lofty, vague promises of change combined with high-spending, high-tax, welfare state-ish policies are a political winner in the state. How else to explain why Gov. Ted Strickland's approval ratings are in the mid-50s or why Democrats may even win control of the state House for the first time in 14 years? Editor's Note -- In his Turn Around Ohio Plan-remember his campaign spin-- Strickland was going to change things. Well, he certainly has! Strickland might be popular, but with help from all his UAW and Teamsters friends, thousands of jobs are leaving, he has no education plan except K-12 failure, college dorm fees increasing and taxes that are increasing. Way to go Democrats!!! 
Aide Accuses Attorney General’s Office Of Harassment An aide in the Ohio attorney general's office has filed a federal complaint claiming his boss harassed him, used profanity and called him a "dinosaur."David Kessler's claim is not directly related to those filed against former Attorney General Marc Dann and his aides. Editor's Note -- Way to Democrat Marc Dann.
City slow to add registry for gay couples Christopher Hoffman wasn't surprised on Valentine's Day 2004 when clerks refused to give him and his partner a marriage license at the Franklin County Courthouse.Those are the state's rules...But in Columbus, a city whose leaders love to tout the gay-friendly label bestowed by national magazines and civil-rights groups, Hoffman thought there would be an alternative by now... Editor's Note -- This story is not really news, just a trial run, to see what kind of citizens interest there is, since the mayor and most of the city council members would be in favor of a registry even though voters would not.
Gallup:Americans Overwhelmingly Support Conservative Economic Policies As the GOP in Congress appears about to be taking an "every man for himself" strategy for the fall elections, Gallup has just given the Republicans another gift (Americans Oppose Income Redistribution to Fix Economy). The results of this poll show that if the GOP ever gets back to preaching and adhering to the simple message that they used to have -- one that they've previously ridden to victory on -- they'd be shoe-ins in 2008. Whether or not the Republicans have cleaned their own house enough to take advantage of something like this remains to be seen. Editor's Note -- Americans are against the core principle behind Barack Obama's [Marxist]domestic economic policy -- income redistribution -- by an astounding 84% to 13%. Republicans oppose it 90%-9%, Independents oppose it 85% to 13%, and even Democrats oppose it 77% to 19%."
Anglicans to form a 'new church' The Anglican Church faces what is in effect a schism this weekend after the declaration last night of conservative evangelicals to create a “church within a church”. The new body, called the Fellowship of Confessing Anglicans, will have its own bishops, clergy and theological colleges.... It follows a protracted battle within the church over gay clergy. Many evangelicals were outraged when it was revealed this month that the civil partnership of two gay priests had been blessed in a London church with a traditional wedding liturgy.
