The Voice of Reason in Ohio

For those of you wondering exactly what happened to sanity in the State of Ohio after last year's election, rest assured it is alive and well. There is new voice in the blogosphere, and it is the voice of the famed midwestern common-sense conservatism. Be sure to visit Ohio Neocon. And guess who he's supporting for President (hint: it's not Rudy McRomney).

Cheney Delivers

US Vice President Dick Cheney, wrapping up a week-long visit to the Middle East, said Monday that he had won support from his Arab hosts for US efforts to stabilize war-torn Iraq.

Cheney, speaking aboard his Air Force Two airplane after leaving Jordan, also said that their backing was not contingent on making progress on the Israeli-Palestinian peace process -- though doing so is a key US goal.

[...]Asked whether he had won his Arab hosts' support for US efforts to stabilize Iraq, Cheney replied: "I did." He declined to offer further details.

Cheney, within the span of just a couple of days, has actually convinced Middle Eastern governments to support Democracy in Iraq. I'd like to see Rudy McRomney do that.
