In reading the Daily Press blogs, it is clear the Mitzelfelt campaign has been able to discredit the Voglers with some voters. I base this on the type of comments as most of those comments have no substance to them. It is not as those these people hate the Voglers based on personal […]

I might as well give them a little more free publicity. I’ve been so bugged at the complete lack of integrity by the Daily Press and the Mitzelfelt people over the Vogler election documents filing issue, I actually did something I said I would never do and that is put something on the Red […]

This doesn’t fit into the Mitzelfelt/Daily Press political agenda, but the San Bernardino County Registrar of Voters website has been updated to show, guess what?, Rita did file her campaign forms, back on 4-14-08, nine days before the Daily Press hit piece. They still don’t have the forms on-line so we can view them, […]

I wonder if the Daily Press pays Mitzelfelt to write these stories. I honestly never thought I’d see the day when the Daily Press became even less trustworthy than Pryke. But it has happened. The Daily Press continues to write stories without so much as checking the facts. I guess we […]

I’d put up a link to the letters and opinion page, but they are not in a format where I can do that yet, but did you read Steve Williams’ editorial and the letters to the editor? You know, the Mitzelfelt campaign has made sure word has gotten to the Voglers to expect to […]

I am amazed at the number of hits we are receiving after being up and running only eight days. I’ve also been surprised at the amount of time the average person is spending on this blog. On the old blogs it was often less than five minutes. It is very common to […]

I had the opportunity today to meet with Al Vogler, husband and campaign manager to First District Supervisor candidate Rita Vogler. It was an interesting conversation. I would have to say my first impression is that both of them are “one of us.” Al was a probation officer with Los Angeles County […]

I’m sure most of you were surprised to get an email from me today about the blog. I’ve been wanting to start one again but really couldn’t come up with a good reason. That changed last week when Rita Vogler announced that she would be running against Brad Mitzelfelt. Finally someone is […]

I could only be blog-less for so long!!! The local political scene is heating up and it’s time to get involved. Remember, I promised Brad Mitzelfelt that I would do everything I could to see that he is not elected to the post he was appointed to a while back. He’s picked up […]
