« The Great Honest Open National Discussion on Race: Don Lemon: Black Folks Have to Aspire to Better Goldie Taylor: Don Lemon is a "Turncoat Mofo" | Main | Member of the San Diego Media Admits They Long Knew About Filner, But Chose Not to Investigate Nor Report; How About the DC Media? » July 29, 2013
War on Women: Democrats Covered Up For Filner For Years, Permitting Him Fresh Victims, and Now They're Doing It AgainFirst, the covering up for years part. You've probably seen this already, but the national media apparently hasn't. The local Democratic Party has known for a long time about sexual harassment allegations against Bob Filner, a former Democratic assemblywoman said in a Thursday interview. And yet she supported him for mayor. Why? Because she was threatened with being politically blackballed if she didn't: Party leaders, she said, made it clear that if people didn’t support Filner they wouldn’t receive their support again. So that's the prior cover-up. Now here's the current one. Now, a recall drive has been initiated. This requires some 101,000 signatures. The law here is sketchy -- what happens if someone "files for a petition to recall" but actually doesn't bother seeking the signatures because he's actually an ally of Filner's and doesn't want the recall to happen at all? Does his fake, political-sabotage "petition for recall" effort blockade legitimate efforts to collect signatures? It looks like we're confronted with that situation: Stampp Corbin, a close Filner ally and publisher of the LGBT weekly in San Diego, has filed a recall notice to recall Mayor Filthy Filner. Corbin was the first to mount a recall effort when he published a notice in the San Diego Union Tribune on Friday. But is there any proof that's his intent? I mean, apart from not bothering to hire staff to collect 101,000+ signatures? Indeed there is -- a witness says he stated, explicitly, that it occurred to him that his effort would "derail the other group," that is, the real group really seeking a recall. That's at the link. Now, this appears to be a coordinated Democratic effort, by the local party and now by this local Filner ally, to cover-up for Fingers Filner and help him escape the people's judgment about his actions. Nevermind creating a target-rich environment for him, lots of victims and a political machine determined to make sure they remain victimized and silent about it. The national media completely refuses to report on this angle. As I've said one thousand times, the media template for a Republican scandal is "Culture of X enables Y crime," but the template for a Democratic scandal is always, "It's just One Man's Failing (TM)." The dog will not fucking hunt. The local Democratic Party, the State Party, and Nancy Pelosi's California caucus in DC all knew or must have known about this and chose to cover it up. Even now Democrats seem to be scheming to help Filner, while they supposedly call for his resignation publicly. George Will noted that if Filner and Weiner were a Republican the media would be lecturing us on the "somber sociological" roots of the GOP's War on Women. Yet here's an actual war on women -- with a Democratic city councilwoman serving a chief witness -- and they, as usual, embargo the story, just like the did with Kermit Gosnell. | Recent Comments
