iePolitics: The “Appearance” of Conflict

For those of you who are impressed with those in public office or elsewhere who have all these degrees hanging from their walls, and we must include their many years of experience that they often tell us about, think about this.

What University did they attend and what was their grade average for the almighty “common sense”, they are suppose to have learned about?  Ah I forgot for a moment that is something that cannot be taught. Seems you either have it or you don’t.

Scary thought when District Attorney’s, Law Enforcement personnel, and Judges simply have no common sense it already adds to problems with politicians who generally have none what so ever. Some exceptions, but few.

iePolitics: Count Down to D-Day, Day 10

Well, we hear Adam Aleman is back in panic mode, begging for his friends to corroborate his testimony.  Unfortunately, he told so many wild tales about his “friends,” causing them to be arrested, that not too many are feeling sorry for his plight and I know of none who plan to lie for him.  I’m sure he’s wondering if the orange jumpsuit will clash with those rosy red cheeks.  Continue reading

iePolitics: More Blog Stuff

I’m trying to keep the blog going.  It will be up for at least a few more days while I try to work out some details.  It has been impossible to write the articles I want to write without a phone to make calls to verify information.  So I’ve put the articles on the Sheriff’s Department, Lake Havasu, San Manuel, and ARMC on hold for the most part.  But I really want to get them posted.

Hits are still very high and I appreciate all of the support.  We’re trying . . . but no promises.

InlandPolitics: Were Supervisors being misled on Colonies litigation?

Information regarding the Colonies litigation is trickling out and what is being said is not surprising at all.

While state and county prosecutors work to obtain access to privileged legal discussions and materials in an effort to prove their corruption case, InlandPolitics has developed a few fragments of what is being described as a tense litigation process.

While the revelations covered in this story have been briefly touched on over the past several months, a little more clarity is appearing. Continue reading

iePolitics: More Fifth Floor Entitlements–Smoking in the Boys Room

Well it seems my favorite chief of staff, Mark Kirk, likes to bend, or in this case break, even more rules.  As well all know, smoking is not prohibited within 20 feet of a county building.

Although the Fifth Floor of the County Government Center is one of the few buildings with a nice balcony complete with furniture and plants, it is NOT 20 feet from the building so therefore smoking is banned.  However, that apparently only counts if you are a regular county employees.  The law does not apply to the Chief of Staff to the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors.

It seems that on nice days, Kirk like to use the balcony as his outside office where he can take his laptop and light up a cigar.  It must be nice.
