Noam – the media was all over it. As were the blogs.

I suggest you be sure to write letters to the editors, op-eds and letters to the Ohio gov. branches involved to make your voice heard.

Thanks for reading and leaving a comment.

We still haven’t forgotten about this. Had it been a Christian that made some comment about an aspect of the Jewish or Muslim faith, the press would have been all over it and Strickland would have been up in arms.

The fact of this situation is he used the State of Ohio’s computer and network to make an inappropriate remark concerning people’s faith. Had I made that comment at work, I would have been fired. This is a classic example of Democrat hubris, elitism, and insensitivity.

Oengus – there was a public records request that scooped up the e-mail. It’s still not clear who Dann was talking about – it is pretty clear to me that Dann was not saying that DANN has had it harder than Jesus. He meant that Jennings had had it harder than Jesus because Jennings was being “abused” in the comment section of a Y-town Vindicator online article or something.

I think what you say about how you view the situation describes how a lot of folks see it. Though obviously not everyone.

Thanks.

How exactly does an email from Marc Dan to Leo Jennings get into the paper?

Does this have to do with Sunshine Legislation?

In this case comparing the comments of bloggers about the director of communications to the crucifixion of Christ…is inappropriate. To the very devote that type of analogy is inappropriate and to some extent could be seen as blasphemous.

So if this is now business as usual, that being if every email from point A to point B gets looked at then yes he should apologize, because everything he writes in an email is read to everyone.

As to whether or not this has anything to do with Mr. Dann’s ability to be good Attorney general I am indifferent, but to me the comment make him a bit of jerk. Maybe an insensitive jerk that never backs down or cannot field a question about nepotism with a better response than F-you, is what is needed in that position…I am indifferent.
