Welcome to Neverland

I was in Ohio over the weekend where, if you walk into a convenience store, you will see this...


Wine too!

UPDATE: You would think with such availability that hundreds of teenagers would be getting killed drinking and driving. At least, that is what we are told by defenders of the state Liquor Control Board.
In reality, that is not the case.

In 2010, Ohio had 43 underage drinking and driving fatalities. Pennsylvania, 53 - for a 1.5 per 100,000 rate, to Ohio's 1.3. So the next time some apparachik of the LCB tries to tell you that having well-compensated union workers in charge of dispensing alcohol to the public is important for safety reasons, you can tell them to save it for more gullible voters.

Incidentally and oddly, Ohio's underage drinkers seem to prefer Keystone Light over Buckeye state brews like Stroh's. My sources on this are impeccable.

I hope the truth continues to clear up the issues. I have found where there is one lie, there are many more!

Unfortunately, Danny, we will never get an objective justification from the PLCB or the union as to the continued existence of State Stores (whoops, I'm showing my age, I should say Wine & Spirits Shoppes). Now that the facts about underage drinking and driving are out for all to see, we're left with: Unjustifiable explanation #2 is the strength of the union. Unjustifiable explanation #3 is the revenue which would be lost with privatization. We hopefully have elected very bright men and women to serve in the Legislature and Senate. They and their well-paid staff should surely be able to come up with an answer to #3. Which would/could/should make #2 a moot point.

Obamacare bites greed right in the ass. No one is forced to do anything. Quit lying. United we stand, divided we fall. Obama has been working his tail off to help us get out of the mess of George W bush (who is responsible for all the dead and maimed soldiers in his war on terror) got us into to. Spencer mentions this "hard working" man in his july 1st column. He even admits that this guy drinks and smokes. Healthcare problem. You bet! Wake up Spencer. Are you a liberal or a conservative? Or are you a fence walker? Jesus said to be hot or cold, it's the lukewarm that sickens Him. If you are un-biased, then why do you add your own comments. You will never tell the truth about why America is in such trouble. It has nothing to do with Obama (he is just a puppet). Abortion, child porn, gay "marriage", these are just a few of the reason America WILL go down unless she repents. Thus saith the Lord!
