Daily Caller: Communist and Nazi Parties both endorse Occupy movement
This can’t be true! From the Daily Caller—
Red, White and Angry : Communist, Nazi parties endorse ‘Occupy’ protests
In a move that may redefine the term “strange bedfellows,” the American Nazi Party issued an official endorsement of the Occupy Wall Street protest movement on Sunday afternoon. The announcement put the organization, a self-described “National Socialist” political party, in company with the Socialist Party USA, which explained its own support for the left-wing protesters in a nationwide conference call last Tuesday night, crediting organized labor with the protests’ strength and sophistication to date.
Bill Horn: Was it a gaffe, or worthy of huckster propaganda label? You tell us.
From Scott Lewis on Twitter: “I figure Keegan did Horn a favor: He must have been overjoyed to learn his friends were alive.”

In response to Obama’s call for a return to Israel’s “original” borders
Floating around the Internet:
Dear President Obama:
I am writing today with a somewhat unusual request.
First and foremost, I am asking that you return America to its August 20th, 1959 borders so that Hawaii is no longer a state and you are no longer an American citizen.

Divorce over, Tiger shoots a 65
Woods Shoots 65 for His Best Round of the Year
Since divorce proceedings often determine a split of monies between spouses based on current income and assets, what are the chances that Tiger’s been tanking on purpose the last few months?
Mary England’s take on her NO vote in Lemon Grove; GOP makes needed comparison to San Diego
Following up on last night’s post noting that a sales tax increase will not be on the November ballot in Lemon Grove, the lone — but in this case all powerful — holdout provides her thoughts to SD Rostra. From Councilmember Mary England:
Lemon Grove Sales Tax Increase fails to qualify for Ballot
Three of four Lemon Grove councilmembers voted tonight to place a sales tax increase on the November ballot, but that wasn’t enough as Mary England single-handedly owned the power of veto.
In a city that requires four votes to qualify such a measure, Councilman Jerry Selby’s vacation absence couldn’t have come at a more intriguing time, thus resulting in only three of his colleagues in support.
So, unless Selby can get back to town in time for a special meeting, including proper Brown Act advance notification (mind you), and a resulting four person affirmative vote before the 5 p.m. deadline on Friday, it appears Councilmember England solely owns all the cards in this city.
Shelia Jackson supports Lorie Zapf for City Council
OK, not really.
Yet, if you read the Voice article this morning about supervisorial candidate Shelia Jackson’s home foreclosure, her words stand out a bit:
Jackson said her foreclosure shouldn’t affect her campaign.
“There are several people in this economic climate who have gone through that process,” she said. “If no one who went through that process was qualified, then a lot of people couldn’t run.”
The foreclosure also shouldn’t cast doubt on her financial management of the school district or county, she said.
Rexford had Access to Personal Fire Rig During Wildfires!
Despite the apparently true saga of Poway Councilwoman Betty Rexford’s use of city staff to go after her neighbors, have the mainstream media picked up on something way worse than that, her demands for a fire truck to be stationed at her house during the devastating wildfires? OHMY.
Read a recent missive from the Recall Rexford effort, as well as Logan Jenkins’ piece from a few days ago for some more compelling details on Cruella DeRexford…
How’d you like to have fire truck at your house during a wildfire? Betty Rexford did!

Amato’s Take on the Sheriff’s Race
KCBQ AM-1170 and Washington Times Radio Talk Show Host Rick Amato recently weighed in on a sheriff’s candidate debate held September 12 in El Cajon….
On Saturday, I had the opportunity to sponsor and co-moderate a debate among the San Diego County Sheriff candidates. It followed the East County TEA Party, where an estimated 1500 people attended. Questions were made available for the audience to ask of the candidates. All four candidates participated.
It was a loud, engaged audience with plenty of sparks flying among the candidates themselves. Here are my observations from the debate.
(Candidates in alphabetical order)
Board of Supes: Investigate ACORN
Today’s Board of Supervisors was well attended, by citizens and media alike. The main topic was the launching of an investigation of local ACORN voter registration activities last year. Supervisors Bill Horn and Pam Slater-Price brought the item to the agenda, and during discussion it was discovered that on top of a nearly 1-in-6 error rate in registration cards turned in by ACORN, 76 actual cards were turned over to Secretary of State Debra Bowen nearly a year ago, with no resulting outcome or prosecution.
Rexford Recall Burning with New Revelations
The recall effort against Poway City Councilwoman Betty Rexford is gaining significant momentum. Most anyone who knows or hears of the Betty shenanigans is quite incensed that an elected official would use the power of office to push the city into going after her neighbors.
But, new information makes some of that seem to pale in comparison. The latest just received from recall organizer Steve Vaus…

The deeper I dig into the hundreds and hundreds of pages of sworn testimony in the Betty Rexford case, the uglier it gets.
AFB’s Chris Reed: UC forced to fund bogus labor think tank
From Chris Reed at the Union-Tribune’s America’s Finest Blog…
Kevin Dayton of the Associated Builders and Contractors of California hunted down the e-mails chronicling the pressure put on University of California President Mark Yudof to provide taxpayer funds for a bogus labor “think tank” after Arnold line-item-vetoed the funding. Here’s part of his account:
As the state’s budget crisis became acute in 2008, the Legislature gave the labor institute another $5.4 million. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed the funding.
Finally!
A localized San Diego political blog site to provide a forum as was intended by the original Red County San Diego. Thanks for asking me to be a contributor, Mighty Thor! I look forward to a re-energized debate right here on these pages. More to follow.
