Hi everyone,

From the Editor

You might have noticed that the commentaries posted yesterday all came from “right wing radicals” like Townhall columnists and some of our representatives. Nothing – nada – from our friends on the left. Finally got two today… Progressive: “More Tombstones on Memorial Day” and one I plan to post from Sojourners. Do some people really live in a different country?

Darke County Commissioners meetings from last week have been posted. Rhoades is at it again on SB5… there are many perspectives on the controversial legislation. He finds them. Also, State Rep. Jim Buchy said recently that the SB5 Repeal probably will be on the ballot this fall. If we voted now it would pass… but in November it will fail. That’s a quote.
