That reminds me of sea-change and c change. One makes sense, the other doesn’t, yet everyone writes sea-change.

Unemployment in OHio was 5.3% in Jan ‘07 when Strickland took office with the promise of bringing jobs to Ohio. Now it is over 10%, I do not see how any sane person could want to vote for him or Obama again!

My wife is from OH, we were just there last week-end. Everywhere we went it was like walking through a morgue. Lots of empty office buildings, idol factories, etc. Very depressing. My wife’s family and friends were multiple generations of GM, Delphi and other auto-related industries. I feel really sorry for them, they have nowhere to turn.

Kokomo, Indiana: Unemployment rate is 18%, I’ve been told that’s the highest in the country. Anyone know differently?

The only people who should be surprised at any of this are the ostammer true believers such as his black base, the ne’er-do-wells and those union workers who, at the direction of their union leaders, thugs and handlers, mindlessly voted for ostammer. Now they’re eating beans and wondering how to keep the lights on.

F ‘em. I don’t care if every ostammer voter in this country starves. I really don’t. The rest of us have been severely and probably irreparably damaged by their (variously) gross stupidity, white guilt, anti-Americanism and pro-black racism.

“They are ruining the country!”

That was the plan, so yes, it’s working.

You must be kidding. We’re in CA and hope to sell soon. Most prospective buyers want an inspection done, but they’re privately done.

Glenn Beck was talking about the process you describe as a looming element of cap and tax.

You might want to email him and let him know your state already requires a government inspection in connection with repairs.

The government wants to own all real property. There’s an idea ostammer and his thugs are floating that involved the gov taling over properties being foreclosed and allowing the homeowner to stay in the property as a tenant paying rent to the government.

He wants to own and control it all. He’s Hugo Chavez from Chicago. He’s nothing but a thieving thug.

wait a minute, didn’t congress rush forward and sign the stimulus plan that was going to keep unemployment from reaching 8.5%?
What has happened?

Did Obama not tell the truth about something?

Where are the protesters who said Bush lied now?

Bush lied? What the hell did Obama do??????

Did they give ANY explanation? Assessments are based on value and improvements. In this real estate market, I don’t see how the value could increase, at least not that much. Did the owner do some massive improvement to the property? Or is the government’s heavy hand trying to force a default so they can own the property and sell it for big bucks to a developer - in other words, a back-door imminent domain al la Kelo case method of getting the property without having to pay a dime for it?

Well, this isn’t in the state run media yet. He has set up a meeting for an explanation. Will give full report asap.

(back door imminent domain, IMHO)

Many adults refer to this ‘holding them accountable for their actions’ as tough love.

Strickland has no excuses. He’s been there nearly a full term. On his watch Ford plants have closed, GM plants have closed, DHL has closed, ABS is going, Delphi is gone, businesses have left, employees have been laid off, workers have been part-timed, and even farming employment is off.

His plan has been more spending, more spending, and more spending. (I do hear he’s trying to get a nuke power plant for his HOME AREA of Piketon....but good luck on that, ‘cause the enviro-wackos in his party have his ear. It’s hard to tell what he really thinks.)

His party opposes coal, opposes nuke, opposes oil, and opposes exploration.

What business in its right mind would want to be here?
