Happy Holidays!
------------
If you live in Ohio, you know that Gov. John Kasich's lack of leadership on job creation has resulted in Ohio being ranked as the 44th state in job creation. Kasich has used his "trickle-down" policies to reward the rich and corporate buddies by granting tax cuts, while the poor, unemployed, and even school children suffer because of his cuts. Hopefully, 2014 will bring us a new governor like Ed Fitzgerald.
The saddest part is that Kasich had the chance to save 1,000 jobs at Ormet, but he didn't make the effort. As a result, former Ormet workers and their families are faced with a depressing future---- no jobs and no gifts under the tree.
Best wishes for a New Year with a new Democratic Ohio governor and Democratic elected officials!

What! Another questionable appointment has been made by Gov. John Kasich!!!!
The Toledo Blade reports that an appointee to the Owens Community College board had some incredible background!
One
of Gov. John Kasich’s appointments last week to the Owens Community
College Board of Trustees is in jeopardy after the governor’s office
later learned the appointee had withheld information during the vetting
process about a criminal record.
The governor’s chief counsel on Friday sent a letter to Keith Bernard Jordan, Sr., president of the Toledo Board of Community Relations and vice president/director of development for JLJ Vision Outreach.
The letter noted four dates, three in 2001 and one in 2004, when Mr. Jordan was booked in Toledo on a variety of charges that included driving under suspension, failing to leave information after an accident involving a car off the street, obstructing official business, giving false information to a police officer issuing a ticket, and other primarily traffic-related charges.

We'll just add this latest Kasich appointee to the list of people that should not be appointed to any office.
