Chris Maze wrote: Forwarding this email exchange I just had with a guy who works for one of your local papers. I had to get this out because it is classic.

A note from Scott Ryan

Words cannot describe the feeling in the pit of my stomach every time I read an update on the FLDS raid in Texas.  Taking 400 plus kids and putting them in a system that already must rely on some very suspicious people to foster children is asking for trouble.  The bottom feeding that must be executed just to dredge up enough people to house these kids will undoubtedly set in motion a series of events that the local family service agency will forever regret.

A few months ago, while drinking at an area bar, a friend wrote the following on a list.  I came across the list this morning, and figured it may be of general interest.  I mean nothing by presenting this list, other than simply to share.

Dear Governor Strickland,

My name is Justin Jeffre, a multi-platinum recording artist and a Cincinnati media activist.  I read a few stories recently where you have questioned the Ohio Graduation Tests, so I thought you should know about some work I’ve been engaging concerning those same tests.

To Whom It May Concern:

I recently read with great interest a story about how Rumpke acquired “Handlebar Ranch,” which has been the subject of urban myths for generations.  As you probably know, teenagers continuously look for “Munchkinland,” that fantasy property filled with miniature structures for little people.

Dear Membership and Community,

The Cincinnati Enquirer on Sunday, March 2, 2008 endorsed the zoo levy but encouraged voters to not vote for the school levy.  In November of 2007, the Cincinnati Enquirer endorsed a jail.  The Cincinnati Enquirer supports animals over children.  It will be a very sad day in Cincinnati to see a zoo levy pass while a school levy fails.

Dear Membership and Community,

This email has a simple message.  Our state of Ohio is going to be crucial in the presidential primary election on March 4, 2008.  The stage has been set.  Will you cast a vote and be a part of history or not?  This election is so historic, that if you have the opportunity to vote in this primary and do not participate, you will likely regret your decision not to participate.

Dear Membership and Community,

The Democratic Primary uses Proportional Representation (PR) during its Primary Process. This is a fact. The Republican Party does not use PR, but a winner-take-all system. Tonight, after the vote in 22 states I predict you will have a clear winner for the Republican Party. However, that Republican front-runner will have to wait for the Democratic Nomination because Obama and Clinton will split many delegates across states proportionally. The media has not reported these two different processes. Tonight’s results will force them to begin to explain PR to the country.  Obama would not be in this race after tonight’s Super Tuesday if the system was “winner-take-all” like the Republican Party. This means when the media reports a Republican winner for a certain state, that is true. When the media reports a Democratic winner for a certain state, it is not true. The media tonight will have to begin to explain PR nationally because the race is so close for the Democratic party and the Republicans will have a clear winner. PR does a better job of creating a fair election result that allows every vote to count in this primary process.
