Bob Filner Wants “Due Process” For Himself, But Not Others

Every time another woman steps forward with a tale of harassment, Bob Filner pleads for “Due Process.”

Filner’s lackeys are crying “Due Process” at press conferences. No doubt Thursday night’s Democratic Party re-vote on whether to call for Filner’s resignation will also feature demands for “Due Process” before condemning Filner.

Smell the hypocrisy? Oh, I do.

Allow me to refresh your memory.

A year ago, Bob Filner called a press conference the day after the Balboa Park Lilly Pond was trashed.

Without any proof, Filner accused Carl DeMaio’s partner Johnathan Hale of “organizing” and “sponsoring” the party that trashed the Lilly Pond and led to “felony acts.”

Filner called DeMaio’s partner a “criminal” and demanded Carl DeMaio “condemn” his own partner.

DeMaio rebuked Filner — and produced evidence that his partner had no advance knowledge of nor played any role in organizing the event.

Two weeks ago, the City quietly released a report on the Balboa Park incident that confirmed no evidence of DeMaio’s partner being involved.

Here’s a 10-News segment that shows Bob Filner tossing aside “Due Process” to condemn an innocent man. In light of recent events and Filner’s new-found support of “Due Process” it is worth a view:

So as Filner and his dwindling supporters cry “Due Process” let us recognize that Filner is getting far more “Due Process” than he has ever shown others.
