Must see T.V.; Ohio's Gov. Bob Taft (R) being arraigned ... 11:00 AM
On Columbus news ......... It might be carried nationally

I hope he is the first of many ....... please Bob spill the beans and
tell everybody about the "election," coingate, worker's comp, kickbacks,
job loss, The Ohio Turnpike Commission, Blackwell's computer link up
to central tabulators, and why you look like mayo on white bread.


:popcorn:

Hint don't wear you golf outfit.

1. Too bad he can't take old lady Schmidt with him !!!
And too bad Major Hackett can't take over his job until '06 when he's boots DeWine out of his senate seat!

:rofl:

3. I do wish that they would give him at least a minimum jail sentence
just to drive a point. The republicans are so deep in their culture of corruption that they need a bitch slap.

I guess lets sit back and watch the fireworks, pass the popcorn!

:toast: :popcorn: :toast:

5. I might be dreaming but I think this is the Titanic hitting the iceberg
Not much action at first but they are going down. I watched local news for
the first time in a long time (wanted to see vigil coverage too) and
some mouth piece for the Ohio GOP talked about being disappointed
with Taft and then started talking about democratic corruption. How
they can lie and stick to the script is beyond me. Good little nazis.
But you can tell that they know things are going to get really bad.

11. Look a republican could screw a sheep on the State House Lawn
and if he dropped a "praise Jesus" on the way out the fundies would
still love him and the media would just say that the sheep was
lonely.

9. Wish the rest of us could see it
I mean, I know the rest of us don't have such a stake in it as you do... but I do believe that his mr Blackwell stole our national election.... and for that I want to see Taft go down... besides seeing any Republican get his just desserts is fine by me.

10. When is it Blackwell's turn?
Taft is an incompetent moron, but Blackwell is downright nuts and dangerous.

13. It will never get that far...
If it looks like he's going to have to talk he'll get a visit from the Bush Family consiglieri and have to do a Frankie Five Angels in the bathtub...
