Hillary Clinton has decided to be “real” because voters don’t seem to like her. This would be nice if this were some kind of biblical repentance or the result of therapy to help “find herself.”
Our Portly Chief
Cincinnati’s new interim Police Chief, Eliot Isaac, is an imposing figure, in more ways than one. He’s so hefty the scales of justice wouldn’t hold him. If he were a doctor or a lawyer, nobody would care. But, his job is to literally chase criminals.
Sanders At Liberty
In my days as a politician, I attended a pro-life event where one of the attendees came up and praised me for my courage in opposing abortion. The hard truth is I remember thinking, “What courage? I need your vote.”
No Apologies
If you’re waiting for an apology from former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio or President Barack Obama for the recent killing of a sheriff’s deputy in Texas, don’t hold your breath.
UC Reforms
Many of you are wondering why the killing of Sam Dubose requires the University of Cincinnati to hire a community relations director, a vice-president of reform and public relations experts that cost $300 an hour. Taxpayers are also questioning why the school is spending $650,000 to reform its police department.
Rush To Kim Davis
Seeing the rush of Republican Presidential candidates trying to get their picture taken with Rowan County Clerk Kim Davis reminds me of my days at Cincinnati City Hall.
Blackwell’s Firing
Watching the firing of Cincinnati Police Chief Jeffrey Blackwell, I’m reminded of former UC basketball coach Bob Huggins. He also used verbal abuse and insults to convey his authority.
Lessons of 911
On the 14th anniversary of the terrorist bombings of September 11, it’s worth asking what’s been learned.
Gun Control
Like me, you were shocked seeing two journalists killed in Virginia on live television. You may wonder why the National Rifle Association relentlessly opposes any regulation of firearms.
Lunch From Michelle
Here’s comforting news for you moms and dads. First Lady Michelle Obama is fixing lunch for your kids! Her “Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act,” passed in 2010, requires whole grains be used to make pasta, biscuits and tortillas in school prepared meals.
