What just happened? So long dipsticks!

So long dipsticks!
I'm out of town and off the grid for a few weeks and return to find the Fullerton recall passed in a landslide victory and new faces elected. I should go away more often.

I have high hopes for the new council.  The world is watching and they had better get it right.

From the Fullerton's Future blog and newspapers, it looks like the FPD had better straighten up, like yesterday, if they want to keep their jobs.  The FPD can be recalled too.

Fullerton selling out to "affordable" housing

It's been awhile since we have posted but with a Fullerton City Council meeting scheduled for 6 tonight,we though we should tell you about their big developer giveaways.

There are 2 items on the agenda that should be a drop-kick to your head and your pocket book.

Items 5 and 6 are affordable housing money pits funded by taxpayers.  They're also completely unnecessary.

There was a time when Fullerton's Redevelopment Agency was obligated by state law to allocate funding for affordable housing but not so anymore with new state law.  These un-affordable housing projects are being pushed to spite you, the taxpayer.

These collectively bad RDA ideas will cost you $60 million.   

Taxpayers and voters need to shut the door on these quasi-redevelopment projects that have no place in Fullerton or our taxes.

Close the door on redevelopment boondoggles forever with a vote to recall Jones, Bankhead, and McKinley.  
Show up at tonight's meeting and tell them to hit the road with their bag of RDA tricks and schemes.

Is Fullerton Doomed?

by Darryl Jones for the Fullerton Sentinel
There are so many things that eat at me.

Sometimes its little; sometimes big.  I guess I'm just wired that way.

Today I am upset with Fullerton.  I conduct most of my business in Fullerton and contribute heavily to the tax base. 

So, when I had a chance to sign the recall petition, I did.  All three. 

The Three Idiots, Three Blind Mice, Three Senile Imbeciles, whatever you call them, are on there way out. 

And what is bothering me is knowing that there are at least three more well-funded, well connected insiders ready to step up and fill those seats.  That scares the hell out of me and it should do the same to you. 

When the signatures are counted, who will be throwing their hat into a race to manage and spend YOUR money.  My money. 

I learned my lesson and will never vote for another public employee to the Fullerton City Council.  No more school teachers.  No more cops.  No firemen or retired city employees.

And NO attorneys!  Nelson was good (though flawed) but no more.  No more wills & trusts characters.  No more real estate people either- trust me! 

For crying out loud- can't we just get a good person to watch over Fullerton? Is it that hard?

I hope you will join me in supporting a moratorium on political hacks, banksters, public employees, and the city hall insiders.

Let's find someone who can do the job and not screw us over.

Pat McKinley's Incredulous and Insensitive Remarks

Fullerton Councilman and former Fullerton Police Chief Pat McKinley spoke to the Brea Soroptimist Club meeting about self-defense.  The YouTube video below documents a taste of this condescending elected official who thinks a woman's socio-economic status should dictate her worthiness of protection under the law. 

The councilman and former chief actually articulates that the woman Fullerton cop Albert Rincon assaulted were not like the women in the audience and were therefore less credible victims.

Shame on Pat McKinley and shame on the boobs who elected him. 

Thanks to the superstars at Friends for Fullerton's Future for making this public. 




RECALL PAT MCKINLEY!

Fullerton City Hall Epicenter Corruption

Fullerton management closely resembles the 1989 Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder film Hear See No Evil, Hear No Evil.

The Fullerton Association of Concerned Taxpayers (FACT) posted a video of Fullerton Council Member Bruce Whitaker talking about the lack of communication and transparency at City Hall.

Whitaker tells of lies, falsified reports, and stonewalling department heads.  Misinformation seems to be the order of the day.

What is it about our City Hall that attracts corruption?

For some reason, city staff seem to think they are in charge of Fullerton.


Long overdue, the City Council needs to begin systematically firing department heads beginning with City Manager Joe Felz. 

If the City Council boobs wont do it, let's show them the door.  A new City Council won't be so tolerant of corruption.
