Timothy Reed walked out of court a free man today with charges dismissed. Mr. Reed went from a $500,000 straight bond to freedom. This case would have ended very differently without intervention from the Cincinnati NAACP.  The Cincinnati NAACP commends Attorney Elizabeth Tye for her excellent work on the case. Also, the Cincinnati Branch thanks Channel 5 for taking the time to cover the case today. Branch president, Christopher Smitherman says, “ Mr. Reed must attend a parenting class, but otherwise has a clean record and is a free man.” The Cincinnati NAACP looks for Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Slaby whose children died in the back of their vehicles to attend a parenting class.

I believe it was John McCain who I heard say weeks before the election that if he won, they would say how brilliant he ran his campaign but if he lost they would start pointing fingers.  Well it didn’t take long for his staff to blame Sarah Palin and in turn she has since blamed George Bush.

Guest column by Suhith Wickrema

I remember listening to Mr. Obama’s Iowa caucus victory speech in amazement and in awe. Awe at his oratory. Amazed because a state that is 91% white with a per capita income of less than $ 20,000 a year had voted for a little known African American political neophyte.
