Coin-Gate, another Republican stonewall.
From the Toledo Blade, who else.
Ohio's most important political leader has become its most muted on the ethical problems tarnishing his administration and his legacy.So the governor won't speak. What is he trying to hide?
Gov. Bob Taft offers language - part political speak and part Orwell - when he takes credit for an ongoing ethics investigation into numerous free golf games he took over the years but at the same time is unwilling to offer details or even give a general outline of the subject.
"I initiated this process," he repeats over and over at his public events when questioned by reporters. "I am respecting the process."
The governor promises a full accounting of the free golf he is required to report on disclosure forms but did not - where he played and with whom. But he does not give a deadline.
