Once again Ohio's wingnut welfare system gives a prize job to a corrupt
politician.

- Former Ohio congressman Bob Ney has started a new talk radio show, eight
months after finishing his sentence in a public corruption scandal.

Ney's show debuted Monday afternoon on WVLY-AM 1370, which serves eastern
Ohio and West Virginia. He discussed the pirate hostage crisis, the economy
and the Obamas' new dog.

In a video posted on the station's Web site, Ney says his radio show is a
work in progress and that he expects some negative feedback from listeners
because of his conviction in a congressional bribery case.

The six-term Republican from Heath in central Ohio resigned after
acknowledging in a 2006 plea that he traded political favors for gifts and
campaign donations arranged by lobbyist Jack Abramoff and his associates.
