Jim Buchy (Dist. 77) told members and guests at The Darke County Republican Men’s Club Saturday that dealing with Ohio’s budget woes will be a painful process and it isn’t likely that many are going to be thanking them… now. He noted that he created his own “lion’s den” when he set up the three forums in his district to discuss Senate Bill 5, the first one at Memorial Hall the previous week. He expected people to have...

NOTES FROM THE EDITOR  -  TODAY IS  WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23, 2011

While Japan and Libya have been dominating the national and world news, “dollars and sense (wording intentional)” have dominated Ohio news. In nearly every meeting I attend the topic of Ohio’s budget has played a role in discussions. State Rep. Buchy had a full crowd that stayed long after the Republican Men’s Club meeting was over. It’s our lead story. Also in News: Watching free online movies can be costly; and GOP 2012 hopefuls on Libya: Scathing or silent. Blogs: Ya gotta read it!... Rigor Please; and Congress Must Debate the Libya War. Obituaries: Joan L. Voisard. For Yesterday's Home Page Click Here.
