December 18, 2009 The Cincinnati Enquirer Dear Editor: I’m very disappointed by the budget deal that the Ohio legislature has agreed to. This agreement is a breach of contract between the administration and the taxpayers. It appears that when push comes to shove, the taxpayers get screwed. This never had to be a choice between […]
August 19, 2009 The Community Journal Dear Editor: Kudos to Union Township Fire Chief Stan Deimling. He is an outstanding public servant who is under recognized for his dedication to Union Township.

Although the Board members are good people, mean well, and are performing a thankless task, they have made a mistake by moving forward with this. […]
February 22, 2009 The Cincinnati Enquirer Dear Mortgage Company: As you know, I am current on my mortgage and have never been late on a payment. However, we need change and I’ve decided to embrace socialism. Therefore, effective immediately, I will no longer be making any mortgage payments. Please forward all future invoices to 1600 […]
February 15, 2009 The Community Journal Dear Editor: Stop the West Clermont Earned Income Tax The proposed tax will shift the primary burden of funding from all property owners (including businesses) to middle class wage earners. The very rich will be exempt because income from interest, dividends, and capital gains are not considered “earned income” […]
