Some Morning Tidbits

Should Jack Ford use the riots as a campaign tool? The Police Union doesn't think so. Ford supporters are trying to say the Police Union is responding because of Carty, but I don't think so and I think it is demeaning to try to imply that the Police would not ojbect unless told to by Carty. Will Carty's taking the high road and Jack the low road make a difference? Personally given alot of the feeling from those I've talked to about the riots, if I were Jack Ford I would not be bringing that up.

Mrs. McConnell Hanocock gets a free pass from the Toledo Blade. Despite all of their claims of demanding a higher standard? A major fluff piece about her that doesn't mention any of the ethical concerns.

Contrast that with Dave Schulz's piece in the Blade from yesterday. It should be obvious but I'll hint..(((GOOOO DAVE!!))))

It seems as if City Law Director Barb Herring has no problem stating Mark Sobczak will have to abstain from a few votes that are union related. Interesting that minor little tidbit gets mentioned yet? KMH's ethical lapses don't and the different idea of what "term limits" really mean.

Personally I wish the Blade would just quit pretending and say "We like him/her, so anything he/she does wrong we will later downplay after the obligatory shame shame moment, BUT him/her, sorry we don't want them so whatever we can use? We'll keep using it".

Could they at least attempt some balance?

Jonathan over at Crush Liberalism has a really good post on Rosa Parks, rather than write one here? I recommend his.
