3:00pm Friday, November 11, 2011
by Chris Cox This Friday, as we honor the courage and sacrifice of our U.S. military veterans, we should also be mindful of a terrible injustice that too many of them are forced to endure when they come home from the field of battle: the loss of their Second Amendment rights. Today there are roughly 114,000 veterans and veterans’ family members who have had their ability to purchase a firearm in...

Fast, Furious, Feeble...

3:00pm Thursday, November 10, 2011
by Jim Shepherd The old joke about the NCAA's somewhat selective enforcement of basketball rules went like this: "The NCAA's so mad at Kentucky that they're giving Slippery Rock three more years of probation." Translation: the NCAA was going to protect its own even if it sometimes meant the innocent were punished. Seems the Justice Department could work well with the NCAA, at least when it comes...

A Few Minutes With...Herman Cain

7:00am Tuesday, November 08, 2011
by Jim Shepherd This weekend, thanks to the efforts of my friend Doug Warren, I had an on-the-record conversation with Herman Cain. As the current front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination, his candidacy is drawing plenty of attention and criticism.

REMINDER: Vote Tuesday in the Buckeye State!

5:12pm Monday, November 07, 2011
Tuesday November 8 is Election Day in Ohio. Primary and general election days are the only two days each year where we have the ability to vote on our future.
