FILTHY FILNER IS OUTTA HERE!

It was bound to happen and I think myself I predicted this outcome here that the Democrat San Diego mayor, Filthy Bob Filner, will resign after working out a deal to settle the sexual harassment claim filed by the former communications director.
As Ace notes here, in the end it maybe nothing more than being all about the Benjamin's. Money, cash, etc., etc.
And also courtesy of Ace, this pathetic protest in support of Mayor Filthy Filner could have also sped things up. Folks, you have to at least show a modicum of reality and believing in the dude you claim to support. Just sayin' . . .
And another quite under reported aspect of this tawdry tale is that Mayor Filthy Filner may have also been involved in some nice corruption.
Of course those few, the proud, supporters of Mayor Filthy Filner would probably suggest that hey, all pols do that corruption stuff, right? You know, you have to grease the wheels to get anything done.
What can one say about this that has not already been said?
Well, I suppose that the voters of San Diego deserve what they get for voting for this douchebrain in the first place.
I don't think that the majority of those that voted for Filthy Filner voted to have this happen. I believe that the majority of those who did vote for Filthy Filner regret that vote.
The sad fact is that a lot, and I mean a lot of people enabled Filthy Filner to have and continue being in politics when clearly he is a truly sexist pig.
Oh, but on the so-called gal issues, he voted the right way. So I guess we can put up with what, a little grope here, a wet sloppy kiss there, and hey, doesn't every male boss ask his hot female employees to come to work with no undies?
Filthy Filner is no political rookie as he has been a member of the San Diego city council, starting in 1987, a member of congress since 1992 and was elected mayor last year. That is 26 years of public service, over a quarter a century. A helluva long time to not notice until now that Filthy Filner was, well filthy.
How could no one deal with this a lot sooner?
Oops! My bad!
Why yes as a matter of fact some did.
And what happened?
Do ya hear crickets chirping?
Of course you do for in the end, even though local offices in California are officially non-partisan, a Democrat had not been mayor of California's second largest city since 1992. And that way more important than whether or not the candidate that was agreed upon was a serial perv and God only know what else.
In this article at Townhall.com, basically Escondido City Council member Olga Diaz, San Diego County Democratic Central Committee member Martha Sullivan and Former California State Assemblywoman Lori Saldaña brought their stories and or concerns to the now former San Diego county Democrat chair, Jess Dufee. And Mr. Durfee said hey, I'll talk to Bob about it. And ol' Filthy Filner assured Mr. Durfee that nothing would come up in the campaign for mayor. And according to Mr. Durfee, Filthy Filner said the following:

"In all my years in Congress, I've never had a sexual harassment complaint against me."

If that did not send up the red flags, nothing would and the local Democrat party lust for power trumped the mine field that was long in the making.
Because in the end it is all about the power.
And it is not just a Democrat problem to be sure.
We Republicans had to deal with the toilet toe-tapper, former Sen. Larry Craig (R-Id.) and his announcement that he would resign from the senate only to end up serving his full term and not running for reelection. FTR, I wrote that he should have resigned and stand by that.
And in South Carolina there is the former governor, Mark Sanford, who dropped from sight, claimed that he was hiking the Appalachian Trail and in fact was shtuping his Argentine mistress, now his fiancee.
Drunk with power, Mr. Sanford ended up winning back his old congressional seat in a special election this year to replace now Sen. Tim Scott. Unfortunately, in the primary Mr. Sanford won the majority of Republican votes and the voters in the very Republican first congressional district had a bad choice, held their nose and voted for Mr. Sanford.
But Filthy Filner is choice because like all Democrats, as I noted he was right on gal issues. Never mind he gladly voted the right way that he was treating women like nothing more than conquests. He was acting like a juiced-up bad frat boy when he should have known better. And it was more important to support Filthy Filner for mayor of San Diego in the end because it was not about personality. And that is what Lori Saldana said in endorsing Bob Filner for mayor.
Mrs. Saldana was concerned enough to bring serious allegations about Filthy Filner to no less than the local chair of the Democrat party. But in the end, it was more important to elect a Democrat no matter how horrible he is.
Therein lies a serious problem today in politics.
But I do have some advice for those seeking office.
We live in an electronic age. Nothing but nothing his ones' own business. If you run for office, you better be able to not have this kind of stuff come up. Or you should definitely come clean about any possible problems. In reality, the Dear Leader, President Obama did in Dreams From My Father by admitting illegal drug use. Took that issue off the table. There was so many others but that is another post. Don't hope nothing comes out as Filthy Filner did. In the end it will catch up with you.
And that is what is great about Filthy Filner. In the end truth has prevailed and now, maybe he can really deal with his woman problem in retirement.

When You've Lost Hooters . . .

In more of the San Diego Mayor Filthy Bob Filner file, it appears that he is no longer welcomed at a rather unusual restaurant, considering their own reputation.
Four of the local Hooters restaurant have pulled the welcome mat out from under Filthy Filner and said that he is not welcomed at their restaurants. Here is what is being posted in front of the four Hooters, just in case Filthy Filner should try to show up:

Like I write, for Hooters to remind Mayor Filthy Filner of this is amusing yet a sign that this sleazebucket has worn his welcome and it is time to go. But it seems like he either is delusional or does not realize the mess that he is in and embarrassing the city that he so wants to govern at all costs.

But just in case you are unfamiliar about Hooters, here is a photo of what the waitresses, yes only waitresses kids, look like at work.

 

Yes, they are attractive and pretty scantily clad. Oh by today's lowering standards, they are practically dressed as nuns. But nonetheless, they have rankled the ire of Feminazi groups pretty much since they came on the scene.

So it is rich that they come out in essentially dissing the reprobate Mayor Filthy Filner.

And in a serious note, understand that Mayor Filthy Filner has no support of his city council. One way to ratchet up bipartisanship! And add another former San Diego mayor to the list calling for Mayor Filthy Filner to resign.

That would be also a former California governor, the last Republican governor of California, Pete Wilson.*

Mr. Wilson is one of the most respected mayors San Diego has ever had. He led probably the last scandal-free administration in the city. Scandal and San Diego go hand in hand. Also a way of bipartisanship!

That Mr. Wilson is giving his thoughts now show that this is a pile on. He could have chimed in a lot earlier, but my though is that he was hoping that he would not have to. But he can't continue to watch the city that he loves continue down this path. And this quote from the linked article is spot on:

 

“It has been all consuming, and I have no idea whether we’ve seen the last of it yet.”

 

And that is why Mayor Filthy Filner must and has to do the right thing.

Resign.

If you lose Hooters after all . . .

 

 

 

*I know , Benedict Arnold Schwarzenegger claimed to be a Republican, but he is not even a RINO!  

 



 



 

Filthy Bob Filner Is Cured! Hallelujah!

Well, the perv San Diego mayor is not really cured at all.
But he did check out of his "intensive" two-week therapy to cure him of his proclivity to sexually bother the opposite sex.
I guess then it only took a whole week of intense therapy to cure 70 year-old Filthy Filner of his sexual harassment of the ladies.
Somehow, I just do not think so.
But it does get more interesting as the locks of Mayor Filthy Filner 11th floor city hall office were changed.
And do not fear because it was Mayor Filthy Filner's chief of staff,  Lee Burdick, who had the locks changed. And you know why don't you? Well, lets let Mr. Burdick explain:

 "The fact is that I had the locks changed to protect the Mayor while he is away. My concern is/was that if anything was removed while the Mayor was away, it could raise all kinds of questions about preservation or spoliation of potential evidence. Because I could not possibly determine everyone who had keys, I believed it was necessary to ensure the integrity of his physical office in his absence. The Mayor will be given the keys upon his return."

So Mr. Burdick, why not just give the keys to a third-party, say the city attorney? I mean, I do know that CA Jan Goldsmith is a political opponent of Mayor Filthy Filner, but he is the city attorney and I do not doubt that he and or his office would have held the keys and provided them back upon his return.
This is upon the heels of Mayor Filthy Filner's support, such as it is, is eroding.
Senator Barbara Boxer and the last two supporters of the mayor on the San Diego city council, Myrtle Cole and Marti Emerald, called on the filthy one to resign.
I am hopeful that the real reason Mayor Filthy Filner left the intense therapy a week early is to resign office sometime this week.
I mean, how can he survive being mayor when the entire city council is calling on you to resign?
He cannot.
For some inexplicable reason, Mayor Filthy Filner is dragging out this affair needlessly. He has no support to speak of. He has already lost his fiancee. More and more women are coming forward to share their experiences of sexual harassment at the hands of Mayor Filthy Filner. At some point, some of these women will be from his days as a congressman. So it will not be a recent few but even many more should come out if he continues this ridiculous game he is playing.
But maybe, just maybe Mayot Filthy Filner is cured. And as such he can prove to the people of his city and beyond that all it takes to end years and years of being a perv is a week of intense therapy.
Somehow, I think that is not the case and expect Mayor Filthy Filner to resign sometime this week.

YES! Even More Updates On Filthy Filner!

Ooh boy! Our favorite perv Democrat mayor, Filthy Bob Filner of San Diego is a gift that keeps on giving and there are now two new updates for the gift closet.
First, I kid you not, Filthy Filner through his just as cretinous attorney, Harvey Berger, is now claiming that the city IS at fault because it did not give him the city required sexual harassment seminar within six months of his hire.
Uh, wasn't Filthy Filner elected by the people? Does an election make him nothing but an average city employee? Just askin'.
Well, Mr Berger seems to think so. And this is the reason, according to Mr. Berger, why the city should be liable and the taxpayers should pay him for his sage legal counsel.
WHOOPS!
A little wrinkle in the Berger move.
According to Breitbart.com, there were several attempts to have Filthy Filner go through the sexual harassment seminar, but it was his office that cancelled the several attempts to have such a meeting. Maybe they were afraid that he would be able to teach the course himself.
OK, call me a little picky, but really, does a 70-year-old man really need to have such a course? Is there nothing that he learned in his 70 years on God's Green Earth that would at least suggest that he should not behave in such a manner around women?
I guess not.
Oh, and this one, this is so awesome.
It appears that the San Diego city attorney, Jan Goldsmith, a Republican FTR, issued an order that Mayor Filthy Filner should not be meeting with women alone until further notice.
The best part of this?
Filthy Filner tried to say that this was HIS own new policy.
Not only is this dude a perv, but a liar too!
Hence, it is why he is a politician, right?
I like this that Allahpundit wrote in the link:

This cretin would apparently rather cling to power, disgraced to the point where his own chief of staff advocates not letting him meet with women alone, then resign and repent.

Exactly!
Why is this douchbrain even pretending any more that he is mayor of San Diego?
Because even in his weakened state, it is all about the power.
Really, is is time at 70 years old to resign. You got caught and you should have been caught being a perv a lot sooner. But you were not. You need to care about someone other than yourself. After all, you have adult children and they are married and have children of their own. Is it better for them to know that their gramps is a perv or would it not be better to start your own rehabilitation with your family?
I mean, sure this is great for us bloggers, but there are real people and their lives are already in shambles.
It is time to stop giving us our gifts and time for you, Mayor Filthy Bob Filner, to resign as mayor for your own good and the good of San Diego.
