<b>Too nice?</b>
As a U.S. citizen and a U.S. Army veteran of this great nation, I have a question. We have helped a lot of countries around the world, even our enemies, in times of great trouble and/or disastrous things that have happened, like floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, just to name a few. ...

'Consider signing SB5 referendum petition'
It was a privilege April 9-10 to be among the 11,000 Ohioans who rallied at the Ohio Statehouse in Columbus against Senate Bill 5.It was great to stand side-by-side with firefighters, corrections officers, nurses, teachers, bus drivers, and police officers who oppose the law that takes away collective bargaining rights ...
