GoP Governor and Democratic Challenger were talking to a newspaper editorial board. The Governor is asked about rape legislation that was attached to the Ohio Budget. The legislation stated that counselors were prohibited from telling rape victims about abortion clinics or doctors who may preform the procedure. Also included things about sending the victim to certain doctors.
The governor kept avoiding the answer, and giving other info to sidetrack the question. When the democratic challenger called him out on answering the question the governor became very nervous and uncomfortable. During this time editorial boarded was agreeing that the governor was giving an answer.
Eventually things got worse for the governor. The video was posted online, but once a pro-life partner of the news paper demanded the video be taken down. The video came down. But other people began to post it, and then law-suits were threatened.

(1,408 posts)Kashits visited my area of teabagger nation in Boner's district, and by the newspaper accounts and pics it looked like he could have told the crowd to eat his shit and they would have paid for the privilege.
He talked up the jobs that had come to the area and the press gushed all over him.
In a cartoon in the same paper was a depiction of the jobs and stores, Kmart, Staples, Sonic to name few, that have left this year and blaming it on President Obama.
He called it Obaminos.
I can't believe the budget he signed last year.
