Gloria Camp: Anything To Win
"We won't say anything unless it is clearly substantiated with facts." Let's discuss the facts: 1. Stephen Whitburn is trying to steal this election by greasing his campaign with nearly $200,000. Yet he has never made more than $70K a year. Smells fishy!?!? 2. Stephen Whitburn does not want to engage votes and actually have to communicate his views. He would rather have his minions spend all day writing lies in the blogs. 3. Fred Williams is a Stephen Whitburn minion. 4. Stephen Whitburn accepted an out-of-state contribution from a Texas attorney at the law firm of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP. This firm was lead counsel for George W. Bush in Bush vs. Gore, which gave Bush the election and sent our country on a spiraling downward path. 5. Whitburn claims to be a San Diegan, but he is from back East, doesn’t own a home in our City and has moved at least three times in the last 8 years. If elected, most District 3 residents will have been in their area longer than their councilmember. Whitburn is not an involved community member, but instead a calculating opportunist. 6. Whitburn’s campaign propaganda claims he will stand up to developers and lobbyists. In fact, Whitburn has accepted thousands of special interest dollars from: Developers, Real Estate Executives and Mortgage lenders, including campaign cash from firms that have foreclosed on hundreds of San Diego’s working families. High-priced Downtown Lawyers, including contributions from a law firm whose lead lawyer is in Lompoc Federal Prison for multiple felonies, including, fraud and racketeering. Oil and Gas Executives responsible for outrageous gas prices that are gouging middle class working families. 7. Whitburn proudly touts the endorsements he received from a convicted criminal. John Hartley, a former candidate for District 3, plead guilty to a lewd conduct in public charge during the election and is listed as a proud supporter of Whitburn. After his plea, Hartley was banned from his day job-- substitute teaching in the San Diego Unified School District. 8. Whitburn and his campaign cannot be trusted.— October 29, 2008 2:05 p.m.
Goth Marriage and Gloria
Fred, Do you want to know what's really scary? That Stephen Whitburn is feeding his campaign with $200,000 from some secret source. Stop trying to buy the election Stop lying to voters Stop denying that Whitburn is anything more than an out of town carpet bagger And get back to the real issue of this campaign. District three voters have a choice: Do they want a candidate that has broad community support and has been here all his life or an out of towner that has his minions spending all their time blogging about mistruths and nonsense instead of actually communicating with voters?— October 29, 2008 9:12 a.m.
Trash Talking: Allied Seeks to Expand Sycamore Landfill
Fred, Where is Whitburn getting the 200K he is greasing his campaign with?— October 29, 2008 9:03 a.m.
Gloria's Inglorious Garbage
Fred, It's obvious you are strongly biased in favor of Whitburn and simply spend your time on this blog to spew your venom. I took a look at Whitburn's campaign disclosures, including his late filings, and I was shocked! Whitburn has given himself $200,000 in this election. I don't care how "cautious and frugal" someone is, no one can save $200K working for the Red Cross for the last eight years. Whitburn is trying to buy this election with money that is coming from some secret source. Fred, answer me one simple question, where is the money coming from? If it is coming from Whitburn's bank account, why doesn't he simply release his bank statements or taxes and put this question to rest. It's because something shady is going on.— October 28, 2008 1:35 p.m.
