WMD Blast

NOTE: I still have a LOT of flagged stuff in the old WMD Mailbag from earlier in the week. I'm going through those now. Some of that stuff I'm just going to link here rather than post on them individually, so this post will be frequently updated.

TIB Network:

Tonight at 7PM Eastern: The TIB Radio All-Stars are back on the air live and direct. Tom, Mark, and Matt will be covering all of the important topics relative to the tri-state, the Great State of Ohio, the nation and the world. All of that will be brought to you live and direct, tonight, on TIB Radio. Please tune in, won't you?

AP News Alerts:

  • The Ack! Run! Bacon Fishwrapper (*) has a story on Ohio Speaker of the House taking up the responsibility of putting forth legislation protecting the veto rights of the goivernor. Exit question: Is he doing this to cover Strickland or is this his entry in to the race for governor in 2010?


  • Campaigns and Elections has a fascinating article on the status of Voter ID Standards for the Great State of Ohio. It makes for interesting reading when you compare it to the ridiculous accusations about the 2004 paper ballots being destroyed. Just who cares more more about ensuring that we have free and fair elections in this state?


  • The Cincinnati Post has a story about the troubles in Congrress for the Delta Queen, a steamboat with significant ties to CIncinnati.


  • What?! Congress made a law without thinking through the consequences? I'm shocked and appalled...


  • "Troops and Crimes" by Ralph Peters on the New York Post. Reader's Digest version: Our military is the best behaved military in history and certainly more well behaved than the general population.
