~~ Surprise, surprise! CBS found old footage that showed a normal landing and Hillary and Chelsea greeting everyone on the tarmac in normal campaign mode. So much for important foreign policy experience on Hillary’s resume, as we watch Obama frolicking in the surf on a Virgin Island ’s beach.

~~ Hurley the historian says on this date in 1979 Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin signed a historic peace agreement. Not only did they win a Nobel Peace Prize for their efforts, but in keeping with Arab tradition, Sadat was assassinated by a peace-loving Islamo-fascist for making peace with the Israelis.

~~ Know the reason why noted DemocRAT fund raiser Barbara Gould absolutely refuses to give a fund raiser for DemocRAT candidate Icky Vicky Wulsin (Millionaire-Indian Hill)? The Blower knows.

~~ Our cubreporter, Nola Berals sent us this picture taken at Stevie Driehaus's fund-raiser last week with his ultra LIBERAL, PRO-ABORTION advocate, Rep. STENY HOYER. It proves what new Hamilton County GOP Party Boss Alex Triantafilou (pronounced "Alex") said was true, that Hoyer was in town to milk the liberal supporters on behalf of Driehaus.

~~ Our Angry Andersonian says if home prices fell by 11.4% in January and the values of the homes also fell, what are the chances Our Disingenuous DemocRAT County Auditor (who was allowed to run unopposed) will lower the value of our homes? In a related item, Conservative Curmudgeon Stu Mahlin wonders when will those of us who have not yet moved away -- to where property taxes are still somewhat reasonable (damn near anywhere) -- read in the local newspaper of record that our conscientious municipal, county and state officials are implementing a program to reduce appraised property values?

~~ Speaking of Disingenuous DemocRATS, will Odd Todd Opportune embarrass himself and the County as much this year when he throws our the first pitch at the Reds Opening Day as Cincinnati’s Dainty DemocRAT Mayor Mark Mallory did last year? Maybe we should call Odd Todd's Opening Day duties a "First pitch on wheels?"

~~ Last Friday in South Fairmount one person had a shoulder injury and 10 other passengers and a driver were shaken up after a Metro bus accident on Harrison Avenue . In keeping with tradition, Metro spokeswoman Sallie Hilvers said it was not the Metro driver’s fault.

Monday, a Metro bus (route # 24, bus number 4005, license plate OD6368) reportedly ran a red light at 2:20 PM at a busy four-way intersection ( Madison and Observatory/Dana). The driver (female, middle-aged, African American) hung a left after the light had changed from yellow to red, while all other intersection drivers had stopped.

It’s only been a couple of weeks since we learned Metro CEO Michael Setzer had resigned in disgrace and was being replaced by a woman. Setzer’s affirmative action alternate Marilyn Shazor is doing her best to uphold Setzer’s legacy.

~~ People are demanding to know the name of the top administrator in the McMason Schools who, as a principal there, carried on a sexual liaison with one of the teachers in the school, breaking up his marriage and hers. Could it be Thomas Morris, who then got a big promotion to Chief of Pupil Personnel in the McMason Schools? Could you say that teacher, um, worked under Morris?

~~ Why is it the Fishwrap and all the TV news reports refused to reveal the name of St. Margaret of York School at 9495 Columbia Road in Loveland as the school that sent those young teenage girls out running in the rain, causing two of them to go into a raging creek and nearly die if it weren't for the heroics of Hamilton County Sheriff's deputy Greg Sersion? The media also hid the name of the coach who told the girls to cross over the creek by walking over a metal pipe. If that idiot coach and the school are not sued, it will be because the Archdiocese of Cincinnati used the Ted Kennedy defense to trick the parents out of it.

~~ Maybe that would be a good case for former Deters Buttboy Steve Adams, after he got his female-fondling doctor client a four-and-a-half year all-expense-paid vacation.

~~ Thanks to Foxy Roxy, Mt. Washington is beginning to look like Price Hill. Thugs are hanging out on the streets; teenagers, who should be in school, are seen walking on Sutton at 11 AM, and a 17-year-old was shot in the shoulder in the 6200 block of Corbly Road in Mount Washington during an aggravated robbery EASTER SUNDAY afternoon.

~~ Finally, speaking of Price Hill, did The Blower cover Monday night’s meeting of the neo-conservative Blue Chip Young Republicans at Price Hill Chili with Congressman Steve Chabothead as their guest speaker? You bet! As the official voice of the conservative agenda and the publication of record for all the political scrambling, speculation, mud-slinging, and back-stabbing in Southwest Ohio , our readers know to expect nothing less.

The meeting got off to a great start as the President, whom we'll call Jeff, came right out and acknowledged the club had to do better on the West Side and thanked all the West Side people for coming. Then, as it was time to recite the pledge, Jeff revealed his dumbass side when he realized he left the American flag in his car, where it wasn't doing much good. But even when making a mistake he showed better leadership than the club had seen in recent years, deflecting it with a joke to the predominately West Side crowd, "this is what happens when you put an East Side guy in charge, no organization."

The group then heard from Congressman Chabot, who was right at home speaking in front of the conservative crowd. The Congressman discussed his efforts to hold the line on spending, protect the American people, and promote conservative values in the Republican Party. The Congressman generously thanked the Blue Chippers and anti-tax activists in the crowd for the work they do in keeping conservatism in the Republican Party.

When it was time for questions, a couple of Ron Paul's Pinheads attempted to crash the meeting by giving a long-winded rant about Israel and the Jews. They were admonished by the President a couple times to ask their question, and ultimately the rest of the crowd yelled at them to wrap it up with their question. When they failed to convert either the Congressman or anyone else to their anti-Semitic views they threw a hissy fit and stormed out.

Since the meeting was in Price Hill there was a lot of talk about Section 8 housing vouchers. The Congressman gave good answers about the need to limit these vouchers and get people off welfare who are capable of working. After the presentation, the Blue Chippers showed they are on the ball by announcing this will be one of their target races and that Colerain Couple Heather and Michael Harlow have agreed to coordinate the Blue Chip campaign for Congressman Chabot.

Incoming Hamilton County Party Boss Chairman Alex Triantafilou was in attendance and gave a great speech about the need for party unity and battling the Devious DemocRATS instead of fellow Republicans. This was in spite of the club President botching Alex's name. We've told you Jeff, his name is pronounced "Alex."

State Representative Bob Mecklenborg made his Blue Chip debut and hit the right notes by discussing his support of the Second Amendment, English as the official language legislation, and stating that the SW Ohio delegation agreed that no further taxpayer funds should go to The National Underground Railroad Freedom Center. Perhaps Mecklenborg's only error of the night was when he attempted to exit the room by walking through the emergency exit doors and triggering the alarm. This might have been avoided had his English-only bill became law by now, as surely the State Rep-tile couldn't have missed a red Emergency Exit sign written in English?

The Blue Chippers closed on a conservative note by unanimously passing a resolution opposing any further over-taxed payers’ funds to the Empty Uppity Oprah Winfrey Campaigning for Obama, Under-funded, Ugly-ass Poorly-Planned Unnagraown Ray roe Museum Not-so-Free-dom Center.

~~ Bluegrass Bureau Chief Ken CamBoo says the Bluegrass Bureau is closed today, because the entire staff is still in Maysville, celebrating the gala Hollywood-style premiere of George Clooney’s movie premiere Monday night and the Mason County High School’s early closing on Tuesday, so former Pants-Dropper-in-Chief Bill Clinton could give a speech to drum up support for Hillary in the Bluegrass primary on May 20 in only 55 more days.

~~ Whistleblower Gossip Columnist Linda Libel wonders if Maysville is on the Ohio River or the River Styx ? because she contends both the Clooneys and the Clintons sold their souls to the devil.
