After reading the media hype about Anthony Wiener and this misuse of his camera phone, I am shocked and appalled that currently Martin Garrick has no plans of stepping down from his seat. After all Martin Garrick could have killed someone and himself. Did Anthony Wiener do anything to harm others on the same level? No where near the same.

The California Highway Patrol arrested Assemblyman Martin Garrick, R-Carlsbad, around 10 p.m Wednesday at the State Capitol on suspicion of drunken driving.
Bicycle-mounted CHP officers saw a sedan traveling 45 mph in a 25 mph downtown zone, and the vehicle didn’t even slow down for a stop sign, said CHP Officer Sean Kennedy.

The officers signaled for the Garrick to stop, but he turned onto another street and then entered a basement parking garage at the Capitol building.

Kennedy said “the officers observed signs and symptoms of intoxication” that led them to conduct a field sobriety test.

Call this fool tell him to resign, sober up and get counseling.

I found this great story over at http://whpsocal.blogspot.com

RJB points out that Tom Reynolds (NY-26), Chair for the NRCC, claims he talked to Dennis Hastert about Rep. Mark Foley's sexual instant messaging issues. He claims he should have done more to stop the incident and protect the paiges.

Just recently, he has been running ads against Francine Busby. He has been making claims that she "praised" a teacher who was caught in a "Foley-esque" situation. Busby sets the facts straight in this ad.

Yet, to this day Tom Reynolds signs the checks on those hit pieces that Busby had nothing to do with. Just another sign of how shameful this Republican party has become!

Return Foley's Money - Call on Bilbray to do the same.

I recently read that Republicans are returning contributions from Foley's Leadership PAC.

http://www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/...

Gov. Bob Riley has donated $1,000 to charity after learning his 1998 congressional campaign received money from a political action committee tied to Mark Foley, who resigned his seat in Congress amid a scandal involving sexually explicit Internet messages to an underage former congressional page.

It is important to call on all our representatives to return or donate money their money from Foley's Leadership PAC.

Recently Bilbray was interviewed and claimed he didn't accept any money. Write a letter or Call his office and demand that he return or donate the tainted money. Read More

Recently, Republican Brian Bilbray was a guest on KUSI news here in San Diego. He was asked the questions by the interviewers if he had accepted money from Mark Foley. Bilbray claimed, "...as far as I know, and all the research we've seen no, there hasn't been any contributions from Foley," Bilbray says. "They're talking about taking this contribution that never existed as far as anyone knows."

It is a lie.

He has accepted money...

Here is what I mean...

Arabic countries have seen the rise and fall of dictators and and kings - the Pan-Arabic movement has not had widespread success, due to the political nature of their tribes, cultures, and geography. Islam at this point pervasive - Sunni or Shia they are banding together and finding that Islam is what unites them, rather than nationalism, kingdoms, or democracy (short lived if you ask me...). This is scary for us, but exciting for them. Who knows if they will have a Theocracy to rival our own Democracy, and unite their states much like ours. Joyous for them, but scary for us. Will they be tolerant, peaceful, and willing to compromise?

Here is why I think this...

Just a heads up for people in the area. I found out that Francine Busby is having a town hall in Carlsbad, for all those who want to attend. Sounds like a great opportunity to hear more about what she has to offer.

SDpolitics, finds how the Republicans attack Bubsy on ethics...

But are they going to scowl at Morrow at well for his anti-immigrant rally in Carlsbad?

[...]
"Republicans are obviously determined to battle Busby on the ethics issue (which is the cornerstone of her campaign). They are obviously also concerned with her standing in the polls and strength in fundraising, given the flurry of anti-Busby press releases issued the past several days. This just in from the San Diego County Republican Party:"

Now that some of the flack has blown over from California Senator Bill Morrow's Anti- Immigration Forum, I have some photos to post. I'll try and get some of the video, once I get a spot to host it. Too bad Bill Morrow still refuses to pay for it. This is his $62,072.41 dollar pep-rally for hate. He should at least pay for his fair share.

I'll post two here, but there are more on my blog.

David Corn: Duke's ban on flag burning twisting into 9/11

David Corn has some thoughts on my Congressman Duke "not-so-CunningScam":

[...]
Given his ethics troubles, Cunningham has provided more material to support the truest of cliches about patriotism and scoundrels. The flag-burning amendment is the latest resort of this scandalized patriot. And Cunningham's exploitation of 9/11 only strengthens his standing as a scoundrel. But he is in good company, for he is in complete sync with a White House eager to use 9/11 as another prop for its divide-and-conquer politics.

Well said...

I find it amazing that his amendment is hitting the fan at the same time as his Mansion-gate scandal.

Even Jon Stewart takes his shots at Cunningham. RIGHT ON!

I'm a blogger in the 50th District - turf of Randy "Duke" Cunningham.

He's a 7+ year incumbent. This year his only real competition is a local grassroots candidate Francine Busby

I'm attempting to chronical any local dealings the Representitve Randy "Duke" Cunningham and his Real Estate-gate. As well as the laundry list of ethical imparments and other general wankery.

Let us begin with current events, and work backwards.

Recently, this headline shows how he attempted to use his influence in the defence contract appropriations for the pentagon to personally benefit through contacts with defense industry insiders.

Facts of the case are starting to look really bad...

It seems that Rick Reiss who writes for The Californian, may have reported the story - but left out a few facts wheneditorializing

Interesting facts.

In Poway Unified, a student is a part of a law suit to create a precedence of embedding personal religious belief into the public school system. He is representing the boy and his family as they sue the school district for suspending him. He refused to remove the message from his shirt, "Homosexuality is shameful" & "This school accepts what God condems". Proactive enough?

Just an innocent student voicing his opinion?

Oh wait... He was part of a groupthat promotes intolerance based on personal religious beliefs. The group, Alliance Defense Fund, is dedicated to condemning "detrimental personal and social behavior". They have purposefully alignedtheir "Day of Truth" to follow the "Day of Silence.

There is more about his lawyer... and who Charles C. Limandri and the Thomas More Law Center...and Bill O'Reilly. Read More
