Here is an article that came in from our friend FULLERTON LOVER. Looks like its time for some more of Fullerton’s famous…
><
It’s not just the public safety unions, they are also in the metaphorical hip pocket of the Teachers and Professors that use groups with civic minded sounding names like “Neighbors United For Fullerton” to advance their thinly veiled agenda to support local candidates that will be supportive of higher pay and earlier retirement packages for local school teachers.
Consider that, “Neighbors United For Fullerton” or NUFF, labels themselves as a local political group who professes to be non-partisan. Webster’s dictionary defines non-partisan as:
free from party affiliation, bias, or designation.
I have done a little of my own research into just who and what NUFF is, and have come to far different conclusions about who and what NUFF REALLY is, as opposed to whom they say they are.
Firstly, there is the connection with the Fullerton Observer, who also professes to be non-partisan. That of course is long time political commentator that pontificates instead of really analyzes local politicians, “Vince” Buck.
Vince Buck is a NUFF member. Who else are NUFF members? You would think with a name like “Neighbors United For Fullerton” that this would be a group of neighbors who hoped that their collective voices would be better heard, yet in reality, I noticed that most, if not all, off the names that I’ve found ran through the state of California’s “Transparent California” website, have come back showing NUFF members as Teachers and Professors that advocate for candidates in local elections that will give them generous raises and retirement packages, for sub-par Teachers and Professors…

I guess the real problem I have is that NUFF, who claims to be non-partisan, is consistently supportive of Fullerton City Council candidates which are also supported simultaneousy by the Democrats of North Orange County such as Doug Chaffee:

Also note how Pam Keller’s campaign contributions from the 2006 Fullerton City Council election, clearly showing a $2,500 contribution from supposedly non-partisan group, NUFF, or Neighbors United For Fullerton…which I believe in reality it is the covert arm of the educators in this community, subversively funneling money to Democratic candidates such as Keller,Flory, and SQS, Chaffee, etc…

I think that it’s also noteworthy to see how the Fullerton Observer’s editor, Sharon Kennedy, perjures herself under oath in this Superior Court declaration , by stating that the Fullerton Observer is non-partisan, and non-sectarian.
I’ll grant them the last one, but the first is a blatant lie as the Fullerton Observer’s definitely supportive with their coverage of Democratic candidates, such as Chaffee, Sharon Quirk Silva and Pam Keller, and obviously slanted in their coverage of Republicans such as Norby, Nelson, Whitaker, and even Chris Thompson.

There are some real bizarre creatures that have emerged from this slime pit and have assumed some very questionable roles. Anyone know why Pam Keller is so hot for the FPOA? We know why Buck lives down in this dark shaft but what about Pam?

I guess I have another open ended question I believe needs to be addressed before the next election also…
Who is this “retired investor” John Wilson Phillips?
John Wilson Phillip’s Father…
http://jesselatour.blogspot.com/2014/02/fullerton-oral-histories-wilson-phelps.html
Why did John Wilson Phillips give the three city council candidates who were recalled that year, McKinley, Jones, and Bankhead, at least $1,000?
Why did he donate $5,000 to Larry Bennett’s failed bid to thwart the recall of those three city councilman in 2012?
Why did John Wilson Phelps give Jan Flory $10,000 to run for a city council position paying less than $10,000 per year?
Why did John Wilson Phelps give $500 each to Jennifer Fitzgerald and Rick Alvarez to run for city council in 2012 to replace the three candidates of his which were recalled?

#3 by Fullerton bought off on December 15, 2015 - 11:31 am
Our elected officials are bought off by John Wilson Phelps (Phillips).
Their votes on the City Council are what is wanted by those that have bought Fullerton.

Is it better for the city council to be bought off by him at $1,000 a pop or Tony Bushala for $500,000?

All we got for Tony’s 500k was fireworks and Fitzgerald.
