2. that was a great Video, thank you ! |
|
btw, I dont consider Voinovich to be corrupt, among other things he delayed Bolton's nomination in the senate, despite some vicious rancor from his party. Guess what Bolton is doing after the dems took a hold ?

3. Voino wrecked our state efficiency campaign as a sop to his coal buddies |
|
Ohio consumers send huge amounts to out of state energy companies on account of him.
Voino sent all of that prison building business to his brother the builder. It's not what you know, but who you know.
Voino is as corrupt as they come.

The coin deals started with HIM, under his administration.

5. I still don't feel Coinovich is corrupt ... |
|
I was unaware of the things you both mentioned about coal, prisons & coingate.
But, I still think he is a fair minded conservative when it comes to the state's business. Nepotism is not synonymous corruption, I personally am not opposed to some degree of nepotism as long as all lowest bidders get a bone each and the family member being favored was among the lowest bidders.
The problem with Bush + Cheney + Haliburton favoritism was no-bid contracts and payments as a % of the gross without accountability.
In 2003 before the invasion Haliburton stock price was around $18, a few months ago when I checked it was around $90.
Now that is what I consider corruption.
