Joke of the day

In an April 7 interview with The Blade, [Ohio Republican] Governor Taft vehemently defended Mr. Noe and the state’s rare-coin investment: “He’s probably been the most effective advocate for this part of the state in Columbus that you’ve got and you’re going after this guy. You’re trying to kill him for some reason.”
