We would like say, "Thank you," to Judge Lisa A. Locke Graves for giving the Club members a behind-the-scenes look at the new court house in Elyria. With its new "face" the court house gives some visitors a newfound respect for the Court's proceedings that wasn't there before.
At the Club's February 24 meeting, Judge Graves said that even the police officers notice the difference, and the defendant's - even though they'd rather not be there at all - carry themselves a little differently in the new building. Security measures are increased and that goes a long way toward the changed attitudes.

"There exists in the economy and course of nature,
an indissoluble union between virtue and happiness; between duty and advantage; between the genuine maxims of an honest and magnanimous policy, and the solid rewards of public prosperity and felicity; since we ought to be no less persuaded that the propitious smiles of Heaven can never be expected on a nation that disregards the eternal rules of order and right, which Heaven itself has ordained."--George Washington, First Inaugural Address, 1789

Not everyone is able to make Republican Club meetings because of the stairs down to the Community room, so on February 24th, Club President, Allison Manning, read the names of the suggested venues for our future meetings: Bullfrog's Cafe, near Kiddie College, on Center Ridge, the City Diner, and Calvary Ridge.
Until we find a more suitable location for our meetings, we will still meet at the First Merit Bank (even for the March meeting).

"JOHN KASICH’S RECHARGE OHIO – BY THE NUMBERS
COLUMBUS, Ohio – In a short time, Recharge Ohio, formed by former Congressman John Kasich, has proven to be a significant grassroots force in the 2008 election cycle. “I am excited about the number of young people who hve worked tirelessly for Recharge Ohio to help elect leaders who want to renew our state,” Kasich said. “Ohio’s economy is in a death spiral, and we are losing jobs every day. Recharge Ohio is dedicated to reversing that trend so that we can bring jobs back to Ohio.”
Recharge Ohio has sent dzens of volunteers to all corners of Ohio in an effort to help candidates who share the organization’s vision for making Ohio a job-friendly state once again. From the City of Belpre in Washington County to the Village of Wellington in Lorain County, Recharge Ohio volunteers have been going door-to-door and making phone calls on behalf of State Representative, State Senate and Congressional candidates for the past 17 weeks.
“John Kasich and his Recharge Ohio volunteers have been in House District 94 several times to help my campaign with door-to-door efforts and fundraising,” said State Representative Candidate Troy Balderson. “We are truly fortunate to have an organization like Recharge Ohio assisting with our efforts to help turn around the state.”

Words of explanation on the BAILOUT:
Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the horse the next day.
The next day the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry son, but I have some bad news... the horse died."
Chuck replied, "Well, then just give me my money back." The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already."
Chuck said, "Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse." The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?"
Chuck said, "I'm going to raffle him off." The farmer said, "You can't raffle off a dead horse!"
Chuck said, "Sure I can, Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead." A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked,
"What happened with that dead horse?" Chuck said, "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $998."
The farmer said, "Didn't anyone complain?"
Chuck said, "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.."
Chuck grew up and now works for the government. He's the one who figured out how this "bail-out" is going to work.
