Cincinnati Post needs a couple of letters from you people...
We can't speak for what happened in the Ukrainian elections. But we've seen nothing to date regarding the Ohio balloting to substantiate Jackson's ugly suggestion that the election was fixed.

1. with the help a typo, their last line counters the entire editorial
"But as it stands, there is reason we can see for Ohioans to be concerned that "the fix was in'' for this election."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

5. What a Bone-headed Editorial
Yes, everything went just fine in Ohio on election day ... NOT! If you need some ammunition for your letters to the Cincypost, some might be found in the following links.

6. The Enquirer needs lots of complaints
The Enquirer did not even send a reporter to the Jesse Jackson breakfast rally in Cincinnati. They sent right wing columnist Peter Bronson. A local news event should be covered by a reporter NOT a right wing columnist who is biased. The Enquirer failed the public. Perhaps Editor and Publisher needs to be made aware of this also.

Complaints should be sent to Julie Engebrecht editor jengebrecht@enquirer.com

CC David Wells dwells@enquirer.com
Ray Cooklis rcooklis@enquirer.com
Tony Lang tlang@enquirer.com

Let Jackson take lesson from King

By Peter Bronson
Enquirer staff writer

snip

Asked if filing lawsuits to litigate the election would cause new voters to get disillusioned, he said, "I think lawsuits will spread hope" - and he was so personally persuasive I nearly said "Amen."

snip

What good does it do anyone to fertilize anger with rank rumors of fraud?


But Jesse is so smooth he can make flimsy paper-plate evidence hold a whole Thanksgiving dinner of doubts. "There is a sense among many that their vote did not count," he said - while raising paranoia to red alert.


Cynics might say Jackson is just cleaning up leftovers from the Democratic Party. His sermon on election fraud was wrapped in a "more important" effort to organize a statewide Rainbow/Push Coalition in Ohio. Jackson asked for an offering to Rainbow/Push, which critics say is Jesse Jackson Inc.

7. But don't be too hard on the Enquirer...
I think readers will at least realize that Mr. Bronson is editorializing JJ's message, and that he is not delivering the news.

A letter to the editor is definitely in order, but keep in mind that it was Enquirer staff writers Erica Solvig and Dan Horn who broke the story about Warren County's "lockdown" on election night. In the Cornell Sun article that was posted this morning Keith Olbermann states that it was this story that opened his eyes to the real possibility that the Ohio election was rigged.

So the Enquirer is at least out there trying (sometimes).
