The Salzman dirty tricks...You're not off topic. The Salzman dirty tricks department is on full display, and it has been painful not to be able to respond to his lies, insinuations and character assassination. But it is documented, it is known and it is recognized for what it is.<br /><br />Gallegos once had to distance himself from Salzman when the Web Of Lies was revealed. He did so half-heartedly and dishonestly.<br /><br />Now he has allowed this behavior to go on in his name, unchecked. He cannot survive without it, and he owns it. He is responsible for it. He is guilty of it.<br /><br />He should be ashamed of himself. If he had any faith in or belief in his own ability and value as a candidate he would not have stooped to that level. If he was indeed "courageous" as his devotees like to say, he would long ago have given Salzman the heave-ho.<br /><br />And is it "Wellstone training" that has resulted in the last minute document drop against Sundberg?<br /><br />On whose behalf was this done? Cleary's? Or Higgins'?<br /><br />As I have tracked the police reports over these years, Gallegos has a clear pattern that would infuriate MADDD. No one has cared. And these smear merchants do not care about anyone with a DUI except where it serves their purpose. Indeed, these are the same people who want us to ignore trespassing, dopegrowers and dealers, and who dismiss the growing rate of home invasion robberies.<br /><br />And lastly, to infer that something did not appear in the Times Standard is some sort of conspiracy ignores both the path of information that would get it to them in the first place, the extremely overworked conditions at the TS and any number of other factors.<br /><br />The Times Standard does however require ID in order to use their pages to send your messages - for letters to the editor and My Word's you must prove who you are. In this case they either did not apply that same standard to one who influenced their editorial content, or they know full well who has been pushing the shit.<br /><br />Let's hear which.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14023852057418281003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25625654.post-39488119413632978632010-06-09T17:11:54.266-07:002010-06-09T17:11:54.266-07:00anon,

Then the Madame Secretary of State shut down his anti-democratic cabal, and did the right thing. Eric was shut out. His letters, his advocacy, his schmoozing all had no affect on the truth.

I am now very concerned about the way in which the District Attorney's office has mishandled the reporting of DUI cases, especially in regard to the case of Ryan Sundberg. It appears as if he and perhaps others were spared the public embarrassment of having their names reported to the Times-Standard for publication as is the usual practice. Why should one or more people who are charged with driving drunk be spared the embarrassment that hundreds of other Humboldt County drivers over the years have been required to endure? What is it about Sundberg and about the District Attorney that allowed Sundberg to hide the fact of his DUI from the voters of the Fifth District for six months while Sundberg ran for the office of Humboldt County Supervisor? <br /><br />Have you dealt with this issue? I think it deserves your attention. Look at the Humboldt Herald and see how the Times-Standard and Channel 3 News have dropped the ball. You may be the only source of information about the DA's office and now the Sundberg DUI cover-up that the public can trust.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25625654.post-57712032636237311812010-06-08T13:03:47.692-07:002010-06-08T13:03:47.692-07:00"And on the subject of whether Schooling shou...<i>"And on the subject of whether Schooling should have been given probation in a residential treatment facility rather than be returned to prison, do you really think he is less likely to abuse a child after spending almost 10 years in prison than he would be if he had had 4 years of treatment for his psychological problems which caused him to abuse a child in the first place?"</i><br /><br />That is the argument the <b>defense</b> attorney makes, not the District Attorney. It is the job of the DA so seek justice. Sometimes justice includes punishment for wrong-doing. It is troubling to me that so many (including Gallegos) forget that punishment is equally important as rehabilitation inour justice system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25625654.post-21235523500052681542010-06-08T11:12:48.091-07:002010-06-08T11:12:48.091-07:00I like that Allison ran on what she would do, not ...I like that Allison ran on what she would do, not just on what is bad about Gallegos.

I admire and respect your willingness to put yourselves out there, especially knowing how vicious this process can be. <br /><br />I will be supporting Allison Jackson. But this blog is not intended as part of that support. If I do comment here, it will be me speaking for myself, not for any candidate. <br /><br />I got into this because I became aware of special interests who sought to use the DA's Office, and the DA himself for their own ends. With his complicity, Richard Salzman and Tim Stoen sought to set up a "Trust Fund" to solicit, accept and use special interest money to privately fund a public prosecution. Had they been successful, it would have been a precedent setting move that would have changed our judicial system forever. The D.A.'s Office belongs to the people. To you, and to me. It should never be used on behalf of one special interest group, to aid them in their attacks on others. Ever. It's wrong. And it should never be tolerated.<br /><br />It was a fluke of fate that put me here, and I promised myself that I would not walk away until it was fixed.<br /><br />To all of you who have followed this blog over the past few years - this race is important. Don't sit it out. Gallegos has had almost 8 years to prove himself worthy of the trust people placed in him. He has had more than 4 years to correct the mistakes he has made. He has failed you. Each. And. Every. Time.<br /><br />Fix it. You are the only ones who can.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14023852057418281003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25625654.post-49573544709852082422010-06-07T22:34:10.198-07:002010-06-07T22:34:10.198-07:00Oh really?
