Maybe the AG should focus on why gas prices are reaching $4 per gallon

Nice, because there are not bigger and more important issues to be worried about! A drunk is gonna be a drunk no matter what. College kids are still gonna drink. Come on, do something about gas prices and unemployment! Glad our great leaders have our backs. Idiots!

I guess the A.G. wants to sell more beer. Now those drinking it will have to buy four beers.

They are using fruit flavors because they know if they don't that nobody is going to drink it. That would be some disgusting tasting beer. That amount of alcohol needs some kind of flavoring. Anybody here had that steel reserve beer?, pretty potent stuff, and would probably sell more if it didn't taste so bad.

Mike ran on an anti-big government platform for years. Sad to see he would get involved in this case--personal autonomy used to mean something to him.

Let the Amish drink as much as they want. It's not like they are going to turn into super productive citizens if they are not hammered drunk. This is a great way to keep them happy. Let them chug I say!

The Ohio AG does have the ability to investigate pricing scheme of oil companies. While we get no help at the Federal level from DOJ Eric Holder and his boss Obama, DeWine needs to step up an do something.
oh yeah

This is going too far for ELECTED OFFICIALS TO USE taxpayers $$$$$ footing the tab for something this stupid!! FIRE THEM ALL START FRESH !!!!

SEE BELOW SEE BELOW SEE BELOW SEE BELOW

My question is when are ALL the elected officials going to take a pay cut and start contributing into their retirement and healthcare plans? It should not matter whos party your for or in DEMS REPUBS or TEA PARTY!! ALL NEED TO DO THE FOLLOWING>>>> >>>>>



LETS SEND A MESSAGE TO ALL OF THEM !!! DEMS ,REPUBS AND TEA PARTY !!!!

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

Congressional Reform Act of 2011

1. Term Limits.

8 years only, one of the possible options below..

A. Two 4-year Senate terms

B. 4-Two-year House terms

C. One 4-year Senate term and one 4 -Year House terms

2. No Tenure / No Pension.

A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.

All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people.

4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/12.

The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.

Add mandatory random drug tests to this and you've got my support.

First things first: this product is NOT an energy drink. NO WHERE on the product packaging does BLAST claim to be what has been made illegal already by the FDA.
Stellar reporting.
