Video depicts Noe, GOP the way they wish they weren't

By JAMES DREW
BLADE COLUMBUS BUREAU CHIEF


A liberal advocacy group called ProgressOhio released a video of Tom Noe serving as the master of ceremonies at the Jan. 7, 2005, swearing-in ceremony of Judith Lanzinger to the Ohio Supreme Court.

The video superimposes Barbra Streisand singing "The Way We Were" over Mr. Noe introducing several of the most powerful Republicans in Ohio.

Within five months, most of them denounced Noe as he was accused of funneling money into President Bush's re-election campaign and embezzling money from the rare-coin funds he set up to invest $50 million from the Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensation.
