Orange County

Knowing how busy Mulder is withhis booming law practise, I thought it would be helpful to have an occassional threead detailing what is happening in his Orange county.
Here is the first entry
ORANGE COUNTY IN THE NEWS....I see that local GOP goofball Tan Nguyen, after a moment of hesitation, has now fully absorbed the Three Ns of Republican politics: No matter what you've done, never apologize, never back down, and never go off the attack:

At a chaotic sidewalk news conference Sunday, Orange County congressional candidate Tan Nguyen defended a letter his campaign sent to 14,000 registered voters that warned in Spanish that immigrants could be jailed or deported for voting.

....Nguyen maintained that the letter was sent without his knowledge. But he added that, after firing the staffer he said was responsible for it, he was asking her to return because he believes the mailer was fair. [Italics mine.]

....Former U.S. Atty. William Braniff, a lawyer for Nguyen's campaign, said Sunday that the controversy was caused by the news media and others who inferred that the word emigrado, or immigrant, included U.S. citizens. In fact, Braniff said, emigrado in the letter merely referred to U.S. immigrants who have legal status but not citizenship — and thus do not have the right to vote..

Braniff declined, however, to say why the campaign had used letterhead closely resembling that of the California Coalition for Immigration Reform without the group's permission and why it was signed by a fictional "Sergio Ramirez."washington monthly

BTW Chris, if you let us know what CD you vote in, we'll be sure to keep you up to date on your Rep.

Paul: Have you seen a shrink yet about your Mulder fixation?

Don't bother...it won't help!

Afternoon, PLS.

Interesting: as I have actually spent some short time in Orange County!

Welcomeed by the 15 foot tall statue of the Duke in full Western rig, standing on a plinth just outside the main concourse of the airport.

Stayed at an appalling motel called the Saddleback Inn: pretty grotesque!

Yes, angel I kinda fear it approaches a fixation of naked pictures of walter Brennon (hint "Good Morning Vietnam")

The last thing I read about OC was that the Mammoth Ski Resort...where Mulder skis... was fined $50,000 over the deaths of three ski patrol members. They were trying to post signs around a volcano vent...it colllapsed and two men died from falling in...a third died from carbon dioxide poisoning trying to rescue the men who fell in....
