Sheriff reportedly plotting mayor's ouster got funds from Lynch, Blue, hotel interests, report says
Even the U-T poll says 3 out of 4, so I'd say your numbers are as far from reality as the rest of your remarks. The mayor's support remains strong in the 4th and 8th districts, I am confident about that. I would imagine other communities around San Diego who know of his work and accomplishments and agenda for the future of San Diego are very much still in his corner. You see, this is what happens when you don't bother to get out of the lynch mob, take a walk, and get some fresh air.— August 6, 2013 5:21 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
One woman. And we can't yet say that she is a victim since nothing has been proven. I would be more inclined to applaud "courage" if there wasn't so much that suggests other motivations at work here than workplace safety. After all, speaking up at the moment of the first incident would possibly have spared other women the same treatment. Apparently the concerns then were more about careers being ruined.— August 2, 2013 9:45 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Typical. Pathetic. Everything fits so neatly into your world view, and when things don't fit, twist them until they do. As for the high moral ground, I can no more judge by your standards than you can by others. What I consider abusive and oppressive is my business, what I do about it is my business. And I won't be bullied by the likes of you as to when and where I speak out on this or any issue.— August 2, 2013 9:35 p.m.
Jan Goldsmith's Office refuses to release transcripts of closed session meetings
The 18 minute gap all over again. When will they ever learn? Go get 'em Dorian. Fine work!— August 2, 2013 4:54 p.m.
Jan Goldsmith scrambling to change City Charter to make recalling Filner easier back in early May
Donna definitely isn't being completely transparent in this whole thing. Makes you wonder why she really left the mayor's administration.— August 2, 2013 4:48 p.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
"We knew what kind of disgusting man Bob Filner was and we took a huge chance electing this pervert because we believed in his cause and message." Who is this "we" you speak of? Did you know of these allegations? If so, what did you do about them, who did you report them to, what did you do to stop this from happening again? It seems to me that the women who didn't stop the alleged incidents and the people who knew about them have a lot to answer for here, not the least of which is what this has done to our city.— August 2, 2013 11:21 a.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Some of the women involved in this innuendo campaign claimed they were afraid of retribution, as I recall. And yet there's been no evidence shown so far of vindictiveness, either as congressman or mayor. I don't believe it. My guess is that the mayor will get back to work and knock out the rest of his term doing the job he was elected to do.— August 2, 2013 11:15 a.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Yes. If nothing else, the vigorous vituperativeness of this organized attack should raise suspicions. I've never seen anything like it. Let's keep some perspective on what started this. Some women alleged that the mayor told crude jokes and tried to kiss them. The reaction is a military-style assault that's leveling everything with nuclear bombs, over a gnat bite. And clearly that army was standing by and waiting for their marching orders.— August 2, 2013 11:01 a.m.
Filner imbroglio is all about greed
Bill Geppert, co-chairman of the San Diego Business Alliance, stated, "We are convinced that the crisis has done serious damage to the city of San Diego's business climate. Our tourism marketing industry has been gutted, the film Commission has been disbanded, the Chargers stadium talks are dead in the water, developers are being put in difficult positions or are simply not pursuing important projects. This must stop." When I saw that quote, I laughed so hard I nearly broke my spleen. He doesn't mean the city isn't doing business, he means the city isn't doing business as usual.— August 1, 2013 11:50 p.m.
No known witnesses yet in Jackson lawsuit, says Filner's lawyer
WTF?? Can we spell paternalistic? Men failing to respect and protect women, and refusing to demand equal rights for women?? How about if women respect themselves and stand up for themselves? This is the thing that gets me about these women. They were not young, they were not naive, they were not uneducated, they were presumably not unfamiliar with their rights concerning sexual harassment. They were not poor or friendless or without recourse. It strains credulity to believe they were helpless frightened victims.— August 1, 2013 11:16 p.m.
