Those who read this blog will recall that when your intrepid blogger wrote about Clarissa Cervantes's 2nd DUI, it was not reported as such in the Press-Enterprise. As has so often happened, your intrepid blogger does the job of the local press. It looks like...
The more things change, the more they stay the same. In this case, I am referring to the fantastical corruption monster that seems to infect conservative county parties. They convince themselves there are ghosts of Tammany Hall in their own county that they alone...
I found an old Liberal OC article about this tilt. Paul Lucas is now a libertarian who fights for legal pot and opposes law enforcement. He has been celebrated for it. The Liberal OC also has another gem. There is a letter written in 2008 by Paul Lucas - Paul Lucas...
Hi Fred! Fred Whitaker, the Chairman of the OCGOP sortied out of his bunker recently to attack your intrepid blogger! Rather than address the validity of the expose' on Janet Nguyen, similar to an email sent by Nguyen's consultants, it was long on Hyperbole and...

The Frank-Hamburger Alliance is not a BBQ you want to dine at Your intrepid blogger has known DJ Hamburger for a long time as well. I've never taken him seriously, ever. When I heard that DJ had decided to run against Suzette Valladares, I knew from my history with...

Poor little guy didn't know when to retire. So, let's say you are a Republican running in a D+7 District (like, say, Greg Wallis or Josh Hoover). Do you walk down Main Street beating your chest, screaming Abortion is Murder? Apparently, Steve Frank and DJ Hamburger...
