Wenstrup Fundraiser, etc.

Dr. Wenstrup will be having a large fundraising event tonight and I'm honored to be introducing him there. If you want to attend and help Brad as he runs for mayor, contact Maggie Nafziger at maggien@hc-gop.org.

Ultra-liberal Cleveland Plain Dealer columnist, Connie Schultz, is the wife of ultra-liberal Sen. Sherrod Brown. She recently wrote a column about Gov. Palin. Of course, it was highly critical. You can read it here. Why would I link to this trash? Two reasons. First, it is particularly mean spirited. Second, because of a sentence in the article that is worthy of outrage. Ms. Schultz wrote, "But Palin refuses to acknowledge that trotting them [her children] out time and again during the campaign made them vulnerable to attacks, which indicates an enormous lapse in parental responsibility or an astounding lack of political savvy." I ask Ms. Schultz, what is "trotting them out?" Is Ms. Palin somehow complicit in the David Letterman fiasco? Are President Obama's children "trotted out" when we saw them on the campaign trail? How about all the interest in their new puppy? Are the President and First Lady "trotting out" the girls making them "vulnerable to attacks?" Of course not. This kind of nonsense is why America generally rejects liberals. Ms. Schultz making Gov. Palin complicit and responsible for the reprehensible attacks on these children is outrageous and irresponsible. Shame on her.

The two political parties in America see economics in two different ways. The Democrats believe government drives job creation and wealth. The Republicans believe that government should only create an environment where private business can prosper and create jobs and wealth. Right now, we're trying it their way. Stay tuned.

The loss of Peter Bronson and David Wells at the Enquirer is bad for journalism and politics. Yes, Wells was sometimes not with us. But, his voice was crucial. Bronson was always with us. They will both be missed until they pop up elsewhere.
