Sweetwater Union High School District Borrowing on Bond Funds?
I love you mind.— June 7, 2012 2:06 p.m.
Sweetwater Union High School District Borrowing on Bond Funds?
Is anyone surprised? No, Sweetwater is the gift that keeps on giving unfortunately. I think the DA's office will be very busy because Brandara thinks they don't care. I bet when they look into this that things hopefully will change.— June 7, 2012 1:58 p.m.
AMLO calls Jaime Bonilla From Chula Vista to Mexico
Mr. Bonilla you appear to be a man with honest intentions. The Occupy Sweetwater movement t is trying to recall McCann,Ricasa and Cartmill. Gandara is gone because of Bertha Lopez not McCann trust me on that. The problems that have come to this district because of the ego centered McCann are innumerable. Donations to the effort would be greatly appreciated. If he could fool you with his false bravado think what he is doing with this community.— June 1, 2012 7:52 a.m.
A Political Scientist’s View on Sweetwater School District’s Turmoil
Ricardo have you ever heard the words freedom of speech,press(which you are exercising now) and assembly. The public is allowed to speak to the items on the agenda. Maybe you just didn't know that. Do not try to take my rights away. This is America and these are my privileges as a citizen.— May 23, 2012 4:50 p.m.
Chula Vista Elementary Schools Seek Funding, Hire Consultant
If Scott can't predict the costs with a ball park figure and he's made contributions to board members get rid of him, or vote the bond down.— May 20, 2012 5:58 p.m.
A Political Scientist’s View on Sweetwater School District’s Turmoil
Wow, you hit the nail on the head. No truer words. Also the editorial in the UT did feel like it was written by McCann. Another interesting note is that since the UT came out in support of the DeMaio camp articles seem to take on a different hue. I agree Bonnie should not contaminate the jury pool. But the fact that the bribery charges were only briefly mentioned bothered me more. Wheres the investigative reporting on that issue?— May 16, 2012 8:05 a.m.
A Political Scientist’s View on Sweetwater School District’s Turmoil
1. List item I also want to thank you for showing all sides of the story. I believe the UT has become hmm? As they say political. I'm also quite concerned about McCann's and Cartmill's voting records. Add that to the mix and clearly you see the problem. What do you want to bet that they support Brand's new policy to let students of our district choose the school they want to go to,as long as they can provide their own transportation. Sweetwater the gift that keeps on giving.— May 15, 2012 3:37 p.m.
Occupy Sweetwater Activist Cleared of Allegations Made by Boardmember
Grossly over stuffed is correct. Brand had the nerve to show up at the court hearing to support McCann's position. But guess what the judge said no need. We already have the paperwork that substantiates Mr. Paynes claim. Brand left In a puff of smoke. It was the highlight of the day. Daddy Brand could not protect Johnny Boy.— May 11, 2012 3:14 p.m.
Security Guard at Sweetwater Union HS District Meeting Had Cancelled Gun Permit
Talk about detail oriented investigative reporting wow. It is a pleasure to see fact based reporting for a change. Everyone has been questioning the one sided reporting thus far by the UT and Star News. KUSI and Channel 10 appear to be neutral as does the Reader. Everyone says it's the political environment at present. That scares me if that's true. I believe McCann's history of playing the victim will be over today politics or not.— May 9, 2012 9:35 a.m.
Anger and Police at Sweetwater Union HS District Meeting
Last night's events are accurately portrayed in this article. It was a painful experience to watch. It was tragic for the people who are being affected. The board and Brand (except Lopez) were a total disgrace. The masks totally came off of Pearl and Brand. People could not believe what they were seeing. Their total lack of concern was not disguised in the least. To not even change the venue and not let these teachers express their grief was unforgivable. Out with the old in with the new. It's the only way to end the corruption and arrogance. PS did anyone hear Cartmill talk about his 9,000 yearly donation. Definitely a drop in the hat when you consider what he's taken from contractors. I was not impressed. I wonder why he felt it necessary to mention it. It doesn't change his past and present voting history nor does it make up for his follies.— May 8, 2012 5:24 p.m.
