• State v. Townsend, (Ohio 2011)

Trial court did not err in denying defendant's motion for de novo sentencing hearing. Defendant argued that the language in the trial court's sentencing entry was insufficient to fulfill the trial court's statutory obligations in imposing postrelease control. After reviewing the record, the court found that defendant was properly notified of his postrelease control obligations and potential sanctions for violating postrelease control based on the trial court's oral notification, the notice of imprisonment provided to defendant, the bill of indictment, and the reading of the jury verdict in open court with defendant present. Because the trial court properly imposed postrelease control as part of the original sentence, defendant was not entitled to a de novo sentencing hearing.

• The Madness of Barack Obama ; Film Portrays a Leftist President Who has Left Common Sense Behind

They say history repeats itself. On July 2, Dave Bossie of Citizens United and writer-director Steve Bannon of Victory Productions began discussing a short "closing argument" video - with a working title called "Bill of Indictment" - for release Oct. 1, about the leftist agenda that, since January 2009, Barack Obama and his Capitol Hill allies have imposed upon unwilling Americans. On July 2, 1776, 234 years earlier, Thomas Jefferson had just crafted his Declaration of Independence - a bill of indictment on the "Madness of King George III." (A 1994 film captured that year's revolution.)

• ; All in for Obama While Gop Gets Snookered

Conservatives, brace yourselves. Steel your spines. The liberal media establishment has long since abandoned any pretense of objective reporting. They've declared an all-out war on conservative Republican candidates and it's going to get worse. They know that the unarguably failed presidency of Barack Obama leaves his re- election in serious jeopardy. His best hope is the scorched-Earth personal destruction of his opponents. A record-high 77 percent of Americans, according to a recent Pew Research Center report, say they think "news organizations tend to favor one side," which is to say 23 percent of Americans must not be paying attention. Witness the personal attacks on the three conservative front-runners - coincidentally timed during their ascendancy. The left-wing journalists who bu...
