Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Sorry to hear the Democratic Party is full of such cowards... Oh well, who cares about all the women he mauled, you have lease payments to worry about!— August 2, 2013 5:16 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Uh... ok. You're kind of dancing around here, but that's to be expected. So, according to you, there's no other Democrat in all of San Diego who can address the Civil Rights Act et. al. Really? No one else? That's pathetic. I believe moral values stand on their own and are greater than any one person: particularly a pig like Bob Filner. To bad that you don't, but it certainly says so much about the strength of your beliefs... and none of it is good.— August 2, 2013 4:51 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
No, the first thing I can do is demand that my mayor is not a sexual predator who uses his power and position to demean, harass and intimidate women into feeding his repulsive desires. There must be someone in the Democratic party who can move a progressive agenda forward without being a disgusting pig. If there isn't, then we have no business running a city... cute seal pups and all.— August 2, 2013 4:19 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Um, do you mean, "of which I have plenty?" If we're going to go all grammar/spelling and such. I'm sure those eight women have no problem with you throwing them under the slobbering Bob bus. After all, what's more important to you, the dignity and safety of women, or your political agenda? You've clearly answered that question. So I guess were back to Politics over Principles aren't we? Try again...— August 2, 2013 4:13 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Ah yes KayL... the very definition of Politics over Principals: assuming you have any of the latter of course...— August 2, 2013 1:55 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
I agree... It IS a big deal. And yet our mayor can't give it the attention it deserves because he is heading off to sexual rehab next week. Being mayor is a full time job. Defending yourself against credible accusations of sexual abuse is too. You can't do both EFFECTIVEY at the same time. This farce must stop precisely for these reasons.— August 2, 2013 1:31 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Of course you do. What other choice do you have? Defending the indefensible is difficult at best. If our cause is just, then it can survive the removal of one sick (by his own admission) man. That you seem to think otherwise and appear so afraid suggests philosophical and ideological weakness and gives ammunition to the people you claim to oppose. Maybe that's the real story here...— August 2, 2013 12:49 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Quit deflecting... All of those may be legitimate issues, but they do not excuse an amoral mayor and the damage he has inflicted upon our city and the causes you claim to embrace...— August 2, 2013 12:39 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Is that all ya got? Blaming victims for not coming forward earlier? Blaming victims for fearing retribution? Typical. Pathetic, but typical for those of you for whom politics so clearly trumps principle. I never want to hear any of you try to take the high moral ground in matters regarding abusive/oppressive behavior again...— August 2, 2013 11:28 a.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Surely you get that we can't have a mayor who has to have a third party in the room to meet with female employees. I am simply stunned by the extremes to which some of you will go in order to excuse or diminish our mayor's repulsively reprehensible behavior. We knew what kind of disgusting man Bob Filner was and we took a huge chance electing this pervert because we believed in his cause and message. That it has blown up in our faces is not the result of Republicans or "downtown interests" or any other delusional conspiracy theory you or Don Bauder care to embrace. The problem, as Donna Frye said. is Bob Filner. Surely you get that...— August 2, 2013 11:13 a.m.
