White Supremacists Kinda Dumb

OXFORD - About 15 white supremacists held a protest on Miami University's main campus last week to protest an ACLU panel on immigration reform. The only problem was that the panel was on Miami's Hamilton campus.

Eyewitnesses described the protest. "First, they were yelling and marching in a circle. No one was really paying attention except for a few vacant stares. Then the yelling got a little mumbly, 'WHITE POWER! WHITE POWER! ...White.. um.. power! um power! white! yeah..'" Then someone mentioned sandwiches and they all left."

Looking past the irony that a bunch of whitey's were rallying for power at Miami University of all places for a minute, the group evidently needs a secretary. Maybe a low-paid illegal one.

Quick Poll

A weighted voting system, Proportional Representation (PR), may be on the ballot. How do YOU feel?

	This poll is invalid since I can't rank my choices.
	Leslie Ghiz is my #1, but I can't decide who to rank #2, Pat Fischer or John Eby.
	I can understand why the NAACP supports PR, since Charlie Winburn would likely replace Laketa Cole on council in 2009.
	I prefer the current model of electing the same 9 people every two years.
	I'm torn about PR. I would love to rank Sam Malone in dead last on a PR ballot, but I don't know if I could stomach voting for him.
	Does this mean Justin Jeffre and Michael Earl Patton will stop running for Council after they discover they still can't win under PR? Then I'm all for it.
	This system will only encourage more crazy people to run for City Council... and so I support it.
	Call me old-fashioned, but I would prefer it if the candidates with the most votes win.
