Breaking News: Politicians take stupidity to a new level

Ohioans ticketed for parking in own driveways.....
TOLEDO, Ohio – Residents of Toledo, Ohio, are complaining that they received $25 tickets for parking their vehicles in their own driveways.
Mayor Carty Finkbeiner (FINK'-by-ner) says he stands by the citations handed out last week by the Division of Streets, Bridges and Harbor. He says the tickets were issued under a city law against parking on unpaved surfaces, including gravel driveways.
During a news conference Monday, Finkbeiner ignored a reporter's question of whether the crackdown and fines were related to the city's budget crisis.
The three-term mayor faces a recall vote in November.
Critics have claimed he's wasted city money, like this is new for a politician.
City Councilman D. Michael Collins calls the ticketing "Mickey Mouse nonsense."
He has told residents he'll try to have the citations rescinded.
Good Luck ... what we need is to rescind stupid!
