Welcome to the tenth most conservative city
Cincinnati was ranked the tenth most conservative city in the nation by Human Events, a weekly conservative magazine.
The rankings were compiled by the magazine's editors, and aren't based on any data. Most conservative city in the nation? Provo, Utah, according to the magazine.
We were the only city outside the South or West to make the list.
From their May 2 edition:
10. Cincinnati, Ohio
Home of GOP Rep. Steve Chabot (ACU lifetime: 98%; 2005: 96%) who won his seat by campaigning for the balanced budget amendment and against abortion. Only Ohio Republican to oppose prescription-drug bill. Called "too conservative" by Democrat opponents, but city's district has re-elected him five times. Boasts conservative Ohio Secretary of State Ken Blackwell as a former mayor.

Post a Comment*Cincinnati's finest honor since it was named North America's most livable city a few years ago. Still plenty of room for improvement, though.
...and Cincinnati media reports the news that way. That's why Bush's handlers had him deliver his speech launching the Iraq War here. No fear of the Enquirer calling BS. The Queen City was pleased as punch just having him here.
Even after the war went into the ditch, when Bush came to town last year for an Indian Hill fundraiser, Carl Weiser could barely contain himself. Carl's minute-by-minute gushing descriptions of Bush's motorcade remains the standard on this blog by which all other Enquirer reporter toadying is measured.

More livable (whatever that means) for some than others.
D'ja think those gosh-darn riots may have caused that Places Rated "honor" to have slipped? Shucks, if only everybody would realize just how perfect we have it here, maybe we could get back that #1 slot!
Cincinnati is outside "the South" ?
I don't know about the rest of you, but I am sick and tired of Ohio being so conservative to the idea of banning casino gambling in Ohio. WAKE UP OHIO- YOU ARE LOSING MONEY TO INDIANA. If you are so opposed to casino gambling, there's a perfect solution- don't go! There is nothing to do in Cincinnati and I for one, want to have some fun here! Let us vote on the issue and bring casino gambling to Ohio.
I don't know about the rest of you, but I am sick and tired of Ohio being so conservative on bringing casino gambling to Ohio. WAKE UP OHIO- YOU ARE LOSING MONEY TO BORDERING STATES (i.e. Indiana). For those of you who are opposed to casino gambling, there's a perfect solution- DON'T GO to the casinos. I, on the other hand, want to have fun and a casino would offer that to me.
Another misleading study on race is being shoved down our throats by the Mainstream Media, suggesting that credit-lending bodies are institutionally racist.
This type of racist propaganda is so readily accepted by the American Press, who are eager to frighten blacks into voting against any unnamed Republican, but the above study doesn't take other well-established facts, such as how poor personal behavior of blacks tends to lower their credit ratings on the average:
Using Freddie Mac's data from its 1999 National Consumer Credit Survey, Birny Birnbaum, executive director of the Council for Economic Justice in Austin, Texas, compared overall scores to those of minorities. "When combining African-Americans, Hispanics, and Whites into one group, he estimated that:
- 30% had "bad" credit records
- 13% had "indeterminate" credit records
- 57% had "good" credit records
For African-Americans he estimated that:
- 48% had "bad" credit records
- 16% had "indeterminate" credit records
- 36% had "good" credit records250
For Hispanics he estimated that:
- 34% had "bad" credit records
- 15% had "indeterminate" credit records
- 51% had "good" credit records
Source
The truth is, minorities tend to pay higher interest rates because they have far worse credit scores, and it's one's personal behavior that determines credit score.
Similar instances of black racism are also to be found on the Underground Railroad Freedom Center website, which is just a propaganda instrument for Cincinnati's black racist community.
Wake Up America!
Hey Wake Up America,
The fact is that greedy banks are mailing credit cards to anyone who walks, including teenagers.
If discrimination keeps you in low-paying jobs, high-cost rentals and without access to good financial and legal advice, you're more vulnerable to bad credit scores than your white caretakers.
Just because you grew up with a silver spoon in your mouth doesn't mean others shouldn't get a break.
You guys crack me up.
The right hand says the news is controlled by the liberal media including the fishwrapper. And the leftist crowd labels it a rightwing rag. So which is it?
If you don't know, sounds like Wiser and others at the Enquirer are doing their jobs.
You can be poor and still have decent credit, you just have to work at it.
As a Professor of Dance at community college AND a father of 3 beautiful girls, I know what it's like to live on a very tight budget, but my credit rating is about 745. Not bad at all, thank you!!
It's because of the difficult choices we had to make as a family, and what we had to give up that made us stronger and we have been looking for a larger home now that the youngest is out of her crib.
There's no way I could move my family into a better situation if I hadn't worked my behind off. I started poor, but I knew I didn't want to stay poor!
