Please I live in Columbus, Ohio I want the dam to burst and all the
crap to come out. Including the go along dems who helped in the
election theft.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Gov. Bob Taft was charged with four misdemeanor counts Wednesday for failing to report dozens of gifts that included dinners, golf games and professional hockey tickets, deepening a scandal that has rocked Ohio's Republican Party.

It couldn't happen to a more deserving group.

2. Will Taft have to step down?
Maybe they'll boot his ass out and appoint Major Hackett for the rest of his term.. until he runs for the U.S. Senate that is..

Hey.. :7 .. I can dream, can't I?

5. isn't he the one who thought it wasn't a bribe if it was mailed

him.

8. when will there be real accountability
even if he didn't take the money for his own gain, they were obviously
flashing cash to influence the decision on vendors for electronic voting, he compromised himself and Ohio the minute that he accepted
that check. A week off w/o pay, what a severe punishment, it's like
being told to go to your room.
