Attention Ohio State government: We Have A Special Investment Opportunity Just For You!
Here it is :
A mint condition 1982 "Lincoln Pot Head" penny. There are only 2 know to exist and we are willing to sell the proud State of Ohio a %10 share in ours for the special, low, low price of 50 Million Dollars!
Act now and we'll throw in half* this set of slightly dull but still usable Ginsu Knives for free!
* We would throw in the whole set, but we destroyed half of the knives in a carefully controlled experiment designed to determine who was more trustworthy: Ron Popeil or Fox News. Despite the fact that we broke half of the knives trying to saw through a sewer pipe and the other half didn't cut tomatoes very well new and that performance suffered significantly after we tried to sawed a nail in half with them, Ron still won by a wide margin.

OMG! I had one of those when I was younger - and threw it away thinking it was a forgery!!! Oh, woe is me!... What's sad is that as a resident of Ohio for the past 13 years, I've never heard about this whole "coingate" scandal. I pursued the link you so thoughtfully provided and delved deeper into the matter, and finally quit in disgust. So this guy takes money from the state, spends it on himself, helps out a bankrupt friend in California, contributes to the Bush campaign, helps get 5 of the 7 Ohio Supreme Court justices get elected, and that's just what I learned before I quit reading because of a terrible sickening feeling. And I've never even heard about this? And to top it all off - no one is so completely outraged that this kind of thing could happen. It's politics as usual. This guy just got caught. Happens all the time, in lesser or unseen ways. What are ya gonna do? Don't knock the system... I still think we'd be better of with a Confucian style meritocracy, rather than this "idiots rule all" democracy... Notorious Mjt!
