Saturday Precinct Walk for Shawn Nelson

There is a precinct walk event for Shawn Nelson next Saturday, March 27th which meets at Hillcrest Park. We will gather at 12:30PM for lunch and the walking will begin at 1:30PM. I believe we’re meeting in the main picnic area at the base of the hill. The place isn’t that big. You’ll see us.

Go here for directions

A precinct can usually be walked within 2 or 3 hours, however you could certainly do part of it and finish later. Shawn needs our help on this. Shawn is a great guy and has many friends, however as a businessman and family man with many responsibilities, he’s not a professional politician who has made it his life’s work to do nothing more than develop warm and fuzzy relationships from people who want something from him. He just works hard for his family, his employees and for the taxpayers.

Let’s get this guy elected to to County Supervisor so that we have some continued defense against the insane power of public employee unions. Organizations like Friends for Fullerton’s Future and the Fullerton Association of Concerned Taxpayers are groups who fight for better government without regard for personal gain. Nearly all of those involved in groups like ours support Shawn because he is one of us.

A Little Posturing for a Parcel Tax in Fullerton?

This video is from the South Pasadena School District.  Fullerton School District Superintendent Mitch Hovey felt that this was a good enough example of how a school district could “send a message to Sacramento” to present it at the FSD School Board meeting the other night.  Enjoy the manipulation of children by the same mindless fools who put our current legislature in office.  You should have seen the FSD employees and most of the board members smiling and bopping their heads to the music.

Incidentally, South Pasadena passed a $120/year parcel tax last year.  

Pam Keller’s Election as Mayor Clearly Equates to Discrimination

Like any good American, I am a staunch advocate for “TURNS”. And as Fullerton’s #1 Freedom Fighter, Sharon Kennedy points out; Pam Keller may not get hers as Mayor. Being moved nearly to tears by this development, I went straight to work statistically verifying this horrible state of affairs. Specifically, that women are not as likely to be given their TURN as Mayor as the men! What salacious form of woman-hating is this? So in support of Sharon and Pam, I ran the numbers…

Pam Keller Awarding Chris Norby for bringing the notion of TURNS to Fullerton Mayoral politics.

Dating back to Mayor Charles Chapman in 1902, 44% of Fullerton’s Male City Council Members have had their turn as Mayor. And, only 75% of our Female Council Members have had their turn. So, clearly, discrimination is rampa….what? Let me double check these figures:

35 male mayors/80 male council members = 44%.

6 female mayors/ 8 female council members = 75%

Ummm….well, let me check the numbers just since the first female council member Frances Wood (pause to bow head) was elected in 1970:

13 male mayors/17male council members = 77%

6 female mayors/ 8 female council members = 75%

I KNEW IT!!! Discrimination IS rampant in Fullerton!

But wait… dialing the Observer…

“Sharon, CT here. We have a problem. If the Fullerton School District’s Collaborative Director gets elected Mayor that will mean that 88% of Fullerton’s female council members will have been elected as Mayor and only 77% of men…

…what’s that?….NO, that’s only since 1970 when there HAVE been women on the council.

What? Bury it??? Yeah…yeah….that’s what we should do. People will just forget that we ever brought it up. God you’re brilliant Sharon!”
