Ohio's Buffoon-Elect Speaks
Here are a few selections right from the horse's (ass') mouth (and bear in mind, ALL of these are from a SINGLE news release).

"Tom Charles fears nothing. Tom Charles loves the flying wheel." (What???)

"The greatest men in history made terrible mistakes. I will make some terrible mistakes, OK? I say my prayers everyday to not just be flying out somewhere or … but we are here to really serve this public. And the minute we start messing with politics, we lose."

"There’s no pay for play or any of this other nonsense that has hung around state government since Moby Dick was a minnow."

"I find myself tripping over the ant hills on the way to the pyramids."

"We have so many stupid rules and regulations that prevent us from getting the best people to come in here. You just can’t believe it. And I blame it on all of you, all this transparency and conflicts and all this other stuff." (Darn that transparency stuff!!!)

"Now if you get sick, and your disease gets worse, and worse, and worse, I would suggest to you, you get a better and better doctor. But today if you get sick under the governmental rules, and all the political correctness, and all the open sunshine and all this other stuff, you get a worse doctor. This is something we have to think about over time."


Nice to see that the leader of the Ohio Democratic Party nailed him on his B.S., though: "Before his hand has even touched the Bible, John Kasich has repeatedly turned back the clock on transparency. His disdain for open government should be a cause of concern for all Ohioans, whether they voted for him or not. On behalf of all who believe in openness and transparency in government, we would like to apologize to Gov.-elect Kasich for being an anthill on the way to his pyramid."--Chris Redfern

5. please add Wisconsin to that list
like Kasich, Walker has already cost Wisconsin hundreds of millions in high-speed rail funding and thousands of jobs, while Feingold's corporate-stooge replacement not denies climate-change but defends Vatican child-abuse.

6. John Kasich another FOX propagandist grabbing the horns of government
for the minion of Satan Rupert Murdoch

"People can come on our website at kasichforohio.com Sunday night at 6:30," Kasich told Hannity, announcing a webcast he planned at the same time as Obama's rally. "We're going to talk about the damage the Obama agenda has done to us. And if you have any extra nickels or dimes, please send it our way: kasichforohio.com."

It was one of 16 appearances that Kasich has made on Fox television or radio programs since he formally entered the governor's race on June 1, 2009, according to a count by the Strickland campaign.

Going back to March 2008, when Kasich said he was seriously considering entering the race, there were 42 other appearances, including several times that Kasich was guest host for The O'Reilly Factor.

Critics say Kasich, an on-air personality for Fox from 2002 to 2008, has received overt help from his former employer, both in extraordinary exposure to largely conservative audiences and in potential donations to his campaign.
