I was listening to the Barb Stanton Show today and someone called in who apparently also worked for the Sheriff’s Department.

I don’t think there should be any doubt how I feel about Brad Mitzelfelt or Bill Postmus. That being said, if a situatioin arose where I had to work with them, say as part of one of the non-profit organizations I volunteer for, I could do so with no problem whatsover. If I […]

According to the Secretary of State, SBPEA gave the Committee to Elect Bill Postmus $2500 on February 14, 2008. He’s already been elected! What does he need another $2500 out of your paychecks for?

Here’s the Daily Press version a day late and a dollar short. In all fairness, Stephan Wingert wrote back to me to tell me that Joshua White resigned after being interviewed by the Grand Jury. He was the one responsible for putting out the press releases and that the Daily Press wasn’t on […]

From the Sun, poor Adam has been placed on Adminstrative Leave at $50+ an hour. Must be nice. Here’s the story.
Any VV residents notice that the article indicates that the press release was sent out yesterday afternoon? So where is the Daily Press’ coverage of the story?

This is from Barb Stanton’s site:
Reportedly Jim Tatum, another developer in the high desert has or had a relationship with Postmus. Tatum has told others he pays $100,000 cash for every subdivision to be fast tracked. He places this cash in a brown paper bag. Tatum called it a ‘pass the buck,’ bag and stated […]

I’m sure by now all of you have heard that the district attorney’s office served a search warrant on the Assessor’s Office. I’m also sure we’re all thinking one of two things: It’s about time or Postmus will skate again.

I’m getting a lot of inquiries about the potential recall of Assessor Bill Postmus. I’m aware that at least two groups/individuals are working on it, one here in the desert and one in the west end. I know the person here in the desert has started the filing process with the Registrar of […]

Here is the Press Enterprise version of the budget story. Now this one claims they are in negotiations with 10,000 employees. SBPEA claims they represent 12,000 county employees and then there are the sworn with SEBA which I believe is also in negotiations–a deputy told me that but I haven’t verified it. […]

I was as disappointed as anyone about the Fifth District race. But as I think about it, that is probably the best district for it to happen in. Let’s face it. Josie does not have a mind of her own. She will do whatever the boys tell her to do. […]

You had to know this was coming: Tuition Reimbursement A misdeed at the top always flows downward. Most county employees never benefit from the Tuition Reimbursement clause in the MOUs. And for those that do, usually they take legitimate classes. Thank you Mr. Aleman and Mr. Postmus for abusing the […]
