Addlebrain deja vu

Here's an excerpt of the linked article, if you're not into mystery navigation (most of us aren't).

QUOTE
The day after the St. Croix Board of Elections voted to adopt a policy banning photographers from taking pictures inside polling places while voting was taking place, a Daily News photographer was denied access to the Elections office in Sunny Isle.

Photographer Rob Jones, who was wearing a press pass given to the media for the August primary election, was met outside the Elections office about 11 a.m. Thursday by St. Croix board Chairman Adelbert Bryan.

Jones said Bryan complained about his picture being taken and said Jones would not be allowed inside to take pictures.

In a conversation Thursday night, during which he frequently used profanities, made racially charged statements and compared himself to President Barack Obama, Bryan said the policy to prohibit photographs being taken inside a polling place while voting is under way is a decision reached by the entire St. Croix Board and was not a policy dictated only by himself.

Seriously? One click is "mystery navigation"? That's hilarious. But for those who can't master that click routine:

"It was not Bryan's first time taking issue as a public official with a media photographer trying to exercise their First Amendment rights for freedom of the press.

Bryan pleaded not guilty, and in 1998, he was found guilty of destruction of property, but Territorial Judge Ive Swan exonerated Bryan on the assault charge, saying that court testimony proved it never occurred."

Steve and all those around him were obviously hallucinating while his broken camera was lost for words!

I never been a Bert Bryan fan and like Chucky, he seems to have that magic "Teflon" touch. I never, in my wildest imaginings, would I have ever thought to find myself agreeing with him on any issue, except his mission to remove Hansen from the ballot.

Only Bryan could have done this since everyone else was too afraid to do to go after her in this manner. I will applaud his efforts and tenacity in this particular instance but it won't make me a fan due to such past behaviours of which the link in above post is the least of his extreme behaviour over the decades.

Old Tart, whether Bert is a good guy or a bad guy is irrelevant. Because of Bert's fortitude, John Percy deJongh Jr. pardoned a tax evading independent senator who was sitting in the senate illegally for 4 years, one of those years while she was still serving a sentence. DeJongh's hurried pardon and the resultant chaos forced the biggest con artist in VI history, deJongh, to reveal his dirty corrupt nature. All the while, deJongh was spending your tax dollars to force the decent tax paying Judge DiaseCoffelt OFF the ballot, while he was spending our money to put Chucky back ON the ballot.
Twice deJongh went to the Third Circuit to get Diase off. Once in secret.
Twice deJongh went to the VI Supreme Court to get Chucky on. In public.

I wouldn't marry cantankerous Bert Bryan, but he is exactly the person we can now thank for electoral scrutiny, this wonderful court order, and for the chain of events that have resulted in the perhaps beginning of the undressing of John deJongh.

Old Tart, whether Bert is a good guy or a bad guy is irrelevant.

And did I comment on that? But I'm delighted to have once again given you the opportunity to keep your soapbox free of dust and repeat the mantra.

You didn't comment in this thread. And you're welcome, mi Lord.

DeJongh is history. Can we please move on?

DeJongh is still governor, not history. And if Donna wins, deJongh will be there forever. No matter what else Chucky gets arrested for (and there are many chargeable things still out there), deJongh will call the shots, which means Chucky walks.
DeJongh still gets to submit Curtis Gomez's name to continue his federal judgeship.

And if Donna wins, Senator Ronnie Russell who refuse to turn over the documents from the legislature with the $7million missing, will be a judge. Russell is on her campaign team.
