I fail to see why he can even consider the possibility? I am not an attorney and ask for an insiteful discourse here folks.
Residency is the issue here. In order for Mr. Breaux to "qualify" he must be a citizen of the state of Louisiana. He has a Maryland drivers license and is registered to vote there. So his LEGAL residence is in Maryland. He has to spend a day more than half the year to qualify for this residency. Therefore he IS a citizen of Maryland, not Louisiana. If he wants to return to Louisiana to help in it's recovery he can move his office here and by office I mean private sector. He is not qualified to run for any office in Louisiana ... if he wants to be Governor he can run in Maryland. If he wants to be Governor of Louisiana, he can move back and run in 2012.
Nuff said ....

I hope Breaux will be foolish enough to stick his neck out and run.
We'll be gald to hand him is head.
I am amazed that all of you good government cheerleaders would pass up the chance to have a conservative well-connected, smart, successful political peace maker like Breaux in favor of someone like Jindal who gives whores a bad name.
How can anyone say Vitter is a Wolf in sheep's clothing? I have always found him to be honest and forthcoming in his stance on everything. Just because he asks the State to actually come up with a business plan before dropping millions of dollars into their laps? I would call that being a good public servant.
Greg,
Did you create that Breaux comercial? Is so then it seems like copyright infringment but if not then you are breaking the same laws by posting the comercial on your blog. Right?
There is no Breaux commercial on my website. Do you know who I am and where my website is? Please get your facts straight.
Breaux still lists Crowly as his hom, according to the news reports. So it is a similar situation as to when Charlie DeWitt ran in a district where he claimed a shed was his home, but went home to his family in Alexandria on the weeknds.
Someone pointed out Greg Aymond to me Monday and I was astonished. If he is an example of the superior aryan white race, I am glad I am Hispanic.
"Another complication is that publishing exclusively on the Internet has become extremely popular. According to U.S. law, at least, an author's original works are covered by copyright, even without a formal notice incorporated into the work. But such laws were passed at a time when the focus was on materials that could not be as easily and cheaply reproduced as digital media, nor did they comprehend the ultimate impossibility of determining which set of electronic bits is original.
Current case law holds that blogs in particular were created as a vehicle for the public display, without compensation to the author, of the personal thoughts and opinions of the author. Thus, as long as the reproduction of the material is accomplished without the expectation of compensation, the courts view re-posting as a furtherance of the intent of the original poster.

The quote above was taken from a paper presented in 2005 at The Intellectual Property & Communications Law Program at Michigan State University, College of Law's annual conference on internet law and policy. The Intellectual Property & Communications Law Program at MSU College of Law focuses on the intersection of intellectual property and communications law. The paper’s author was Lawrence Lessig who will be the keynote speaker at this year’s conference.
Lessig’s bio is below:
Lessig is the founder of the Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School and chairs the Creative Commons project. He is also a board member of the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Center for the Public Domain. More recently, he represented Web site operator Eric Eldred in the groundbreaking case of Eldred v. Ashcroft, a constitutional challenge to the 1998 Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act. His recent books include “Free Culture, The Future of Ideas” and “Code and Other Laws of Cyberspace.”
You call yourself a lawyer Greg?
Perhaps you need to keep current on new area's of law and their development instead of chasing Rich Dupree's e-mails.
Greg,
There is also something called the "fair use" policy, that allows copying part of a work for praise or criticism purposes.
The language used by Congress in Title 17, Section 107 specifically lists “criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research” as examples of uses that might be protected under fair use.
If your use is fair, it is not an infringement of copyright -- even if it is without the authorization of the copyright holder. Indeed, fair use is especially important to protect uses a copyright holder would not approve, such as criticism or parodies. See Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, 510 US 569 (1994).
"The Republican Party has been further embarrased by the GOPAC
mebers defamatory blog, Cenla Antics. The following post was made
upon that emarassing blog, on Sunday, January 21, 2007 9:28:29 AM:
"We saw that, Aymond Lama and Lama Lemmings. What a crew to running
Alexandria.
Wonder if the City Council is laughing. Wonder how hard it will be
to work around a racial bigot, a handicapped student of religion, an
idiot savant lawyer and a coonass lawyer?"
Coped from Greg's web site which was a posting copied from Cenla Antics.
Is Greg actually as stupid as he appears? Bitching because someone done the same thing he done. Greg help your brother inventory plumbing parts and forget playing lawyer.
The post below was copied from the Cenla Antics blog, and is one of
the best succinct arguments against alcohol sales in Pineville that I
have every seen.
"Anonymous said...
I am a Christian first and a Baptist second. I enjoy a good drink
occasionally and don't hide the fact. My parent's, who were non-
drinker's, taught me that the Bible does not say that drinking is a
sin. It says that doing anything to excess is.
Several years ago, when faced with a vote to sell alcohol in Pineville,
I voiced my support in favor of the proposal. I will never forget my
mother's responce. She said, "I like bacon, but that doesn't mean that
I want a pig pen in my yard."
Tuesday, February 27, 2007 9:08:00 AM "
Copied from Greg's web site with him actually admitting coping from Cenla Antics. I am telling you people Greg is certifiable.
He never has to worry about being lynched - he is absolutely "neckless". Amazing. You can't even see the knot on his necktie. He overlaps - a sure sign of racial purity.
"Dunlap" and he has a porch to shade his bird
I wish you people would make up your minds. You bitch when I post here and tell me to post elsewhere, then you copy what I post and bring it back here. The problem is that many of you have your head up the asses of crooked politicians, or are one of those unethical crooks, and mistakenly think that by attacking me on this blog that will get me off your ass. Wrong, as it has not worked in the past it will not work in the future. So just sit back and beat your chest and be proud of being a cowardly anonymous poster. I am sure that you are impressed with yourselves.
Town Talk:
"Robert Aymond of Pineville was arrested at 11 a.m. today on four counts of rape and one count of kidnapping by Pineville police, authorities reported."
Any kin?
I'll bet Greg spins his prayers - nah he doesn't pray. He jumps dead in the middle of someones shit for "copywrite violation" and when informed of the actual law and provided examples of his doing the same thing he spins off in another direction.
Greg you so dayum transparent. Find a rock and crawl under it. Your a buffon, a joke, a lair, a twister of words and a very very angry person.
The Aymond family has a long history in the plumbing business. No wonder Greg is so adapt at slinging bull shit.
Dear Mr. Aymond.
I read the following post from you today.
"I wish you people would make up your minds. You bitch when I post here and tell me to post elsewhere, then you copy what I post and bring it back here."
Please allow me to speak for some of the folks on this blog and explain our actions. We do wish you would fade quietly in to the obscurity you deserve. Please take our invitation to post elsewhere seriously.
However, we are a jovial bunch here at CenlaAntics and occasionally look to the local buffoon for comic relief. That should not be interpreted as an open invitation for you to return to CenlaAntics and bombard us with your useless drivel.
In other words, when we want to laugh at you, we will. Otherwise...stay on your own site
BOO YAA!!!
ALL UP IN YO GRILL GREGGY!!!!
Hey Greg,
The inmates have overtaken the asylum and they are obviously beyond civility or reason. While their attempts at humor are inept and moronic, I do enjoy discovering how low an IQ a person can posess and still operate a keyboard. Is it possible that Blanco has equipped the primate research facility in New Iberia with computers?
"Now, who is the dumb asshole? Before arguing law with a lawyer, please seek legal advice. Next time you may avoid looking stupid."
Now this is what I really enjoy from Greg's post. Such a dumb shit. He should take his own advise.
advise is spelled with a "c" a-d-v-i-c-e inless you are using it a s verb such as in advise.
Looks like the monkeys could use spelling training.
It might be sic but completly understandeable and appropriate. Would rather misspell a word then be a fat ass, bull shitting lawyer that can not win a case.
Aymondit might appear your only claim to fame is being able to spell and post as anonymous.
Usage Note: The use of advise in the sense of "inform, notify" was found acceptable by a majority of the Usage Panel in an earlier survey, but many members would prefer that this usage be restricted to business correspondence and legal contexts. Thus one may say The suspects were advised of their rights, but it would be considered pretentious to say You'd better advise your friends that the date of the picnic has been changed.
I am reading "Because They Could", can anyone help with some of the characters?
Okay, name the one that you're wondering about?
Dan Cedars.... who is he?
"dullard"
dull·ard
Pronunciation: 'd&-l&rd
Function: noun
: a stupid or unimaginative person
All I am sayin is that you mo fo's don't know yo verbiage from yo nounage. ya should hab a grip by eight grade see.
I read the book a while ago. What did Dan Cedars do in the book?
"advise is spelled with a "c" a-d-v-i-c-e inless you are using it a s verb such as in advise."
HAhahahaahahahahahahahaha.....
INLESS?????????????????
I just love when some idiot jumps on another poster for bad grammar and ends up making a fool of himself in the process....DORK!
Two in the pink, One in the stink!
Score one! That was a test Stinky. You win
"That was a test Stinky."
Sure it was.....ha.
Hey Sooth,
If you are still out there, what do the feathers and bones have to say about Breaux?
I have to laugh at those posters who attempt to appear intelligent and well adept in their usage of the English language. In reality their vocabulary is rudimentary at best.
To this poster:--->Thursday, March 22, 2007 1:56:00 PM

You spelled cenlastir cenalstir. you might wanna change that typo as well as add a thread to comment on.
Thanks
the house passed the bill putting a time table on the iraq war. that is the most retarded plan ever. why would you tell your enemy when you plan on leaving. they will just wait us out and take control of iraq. these lib representitives are no better than the very people that we are at war with. i do not think that they share the same views as other dems. our country is going to shit when politicans work against our elected leadership. when did the war on bush blind these agenda driven politicians to the iraqis plight?
Aw Shit! and the war was going soooo well.......
yeah, setting up a judical system and holding an election is totally a loss. i mean, after all it should not be hard to set up democray in a country that's never had any formalized democracy. we should've got had shit done in, like, a week or something.
we should just quit because it's easier than putting in the hours.
Good to hear from you Sec. Rumsfield. I was wondering what happened to you.
our country is going to shit when politicians work against our elected leadership
BS this is the USA not Nazi Germany. Do you desire to substitute our representative form of democracy for a Bush dictatorship?

The truth about the less than honorable Ross Foot
Reply | Forward Message #257 of 258 < Prev | Next >
In the March 23, 2007 edition of the Town Talk, former Judge, Ross
Foote, attempted to rebut a critical opinion of Foote's baby known
as "collaberative divorce". The critical opinion of that type of
divorce, was written by Susan Ford Fiser. Susan, who has probably
handled more divorces this past year than Ross Foote has in his entire
career, correctly debunked Ross's colleteral divorce propoganda, as
being a costly and unrealistic approach to divorce for the majority of
working class people. Ross, however, has travelled around promoting
his "collaberative divorce" ideas, no doubt with speaking fees, tax
deductions and other perks. In fact, Ross wrote in his Town Talk
article that "After 13-plus years as a judge, handling more than 1,500
divorce cases, I retired to promote what was clearly a less
destructive alternative to the lawyer-driven divorce."
Do you want to know the real reason Ross left the bench? In a child
support case, handled by Wilbert Saucier, Wilbert claims that Ross was
caught cancelling lawfully served subpoenas, served by Wilbert on the
father of his client's son, who happened to be the son a friend of
Ross. When Wilbert discovered Ross's imporper interferrence in that
case, and was preparing to file a complaint with the Judiciary
Committee, all of the sudden Ross up and resigned his judgship.
We all make mistakes, and should be forgiven. However, the first
step to forgiveness is admitting the wrongdoing. Ross failed to do
that. So when reading what Ross says about "collaberative divorce",
think of his credibility, lack of understanding of the common man, and
his biased motives in such a discussion. Re-read Susan's article, to
get the real scoop on the folly known as collaberative divorce.
Judges are not Gods, and they are supposed to be public servants.
"Judges are not Gods"
Its not judges alone, many doctors, lawyers, cops, college professors, and former US Senators think they are Gods, also.
Can you believe that John Breaux actually said "I'm coming back to save Louisiana."
What an arrogant, self-serving, clueless, piece of Yankee S***. I hope he does run, and gets his A** handed to him so that se can laugh our A**es off at him until the day he dies.
I would switch parties and even donate money to the Rep. candidate, just to help stomp his sorry a**.
What could you possibly be worried about? You got Piyush - a New Orleans indian Hindu that will promise any thing to get elected and assumes, with some degree of comfort, that most voters are not any smarter than you.
GEAUX BREAUX!!!!
Breaux will get the opinion of the Attorney General concerning his status. That is all anyone can expect him, in good faith, to do. Would you prefer it if he sought an opinion from Scarlett or Mary Jo?
yeah, Breaux gonna get an honest opinion from the democrap, former DA from Nawlins, the hub of integrity. LOL
That was a scam from the beginning. just another reason to beat Foti.
Why are you so affraid to let the people decide. We know Breaux and have depended on him and trusted him for years. He has been a critical player in engineering compromise between the factions and has always been mentioned in presidential politics. Maybe the people won't want him, maybe they will. I think he is a great man and logical choice for the State with the strong liklihood of a democrat president and congress.
"yeah, Breaux gonna get an honest opinion from the democrap, former DA from Nawlins, the hub of integrity. LOL "
Don't sweat it. Atty Gen opinion is just that....an opinion.
It has no legal authority. Repubs will still challenge in a COURT ROOM!
It has been about one and a half years since Hurricane Katrina. John Breaux is just now decdiding to come down to help us? Get real! By the way, I own property in Texas. Does that give me the right to vote there despite being a registered voter in Rapides Parish. Remember when the privilege to vote was dependent upon land ownership? Is Mr. Breaux in favor of that?
Mr. Breaux has not been in government since Katrina - on the other hand, Piyush has.
Why are you so affraid to let the people decide. We know Breaux and have depended on him and trusted him for years.
Not afraid, just want him to be legal.
The Dead Pelican has an article concerning several Breaux votes then lists how his son has benefited. If any of this is true I don't need him.
Breaux would make a good governor, as he is likely to carry on this state's traditions of graft and corruption. Due to that he could get a lot of votes. I am sure local politicians would support them, if he would cut them in on a piece of the action.
Wow, I'm actually shocked at the number of people that I've talked to that want Breaux to run so that he can get beat.
He's created an undercurrent of emotion that resents his "arrogance." Many want to know where he was during Katrina & Rita, and how often he's been back to the state since?
Latest internal polls has Jindal up by 20+% over Breaux in a head-to-head.
Then, I suppose that you agree that Breaux should run to assure that your republican candidate will be the next governor. See, we both trust the people to select the right person to lead our State. You are way to smart to be scared of little ole John
Breaux - not when you have a gem like Piyush Jindal.
Does it really matter who is elected governor? It will be either good business and hight times for the Demoracrats or the Republics. We common people end up screwed either way.
"BS this is the USA not Nazi Germany. Do you desire to substitute our representative form of democracy for a Bush dictatorship?"
see thats the problem with many leftist. you exagerate entirely to much. when you say that bush is hitler and act as though he seized power and was not elected you confuse to people who are still on the fence; not to mention devalue the impact of the holocaust and what it meant. i realize that this is disinformation designed for that very reason but you and your lib friends gotta grow up for the sake of the country.
fact: we are at war.
fact: your democrat leadership voted to go.
fact: republicans finish what they start.
fact: if we cut and run we will lose street cred.
fact: what the libs propose makes our enemy very happy.
fact: if given the opportunity the enemy would cut both of our heads regardless of political affiliation.
insert "off" after heads in above post.
fact: republicans finish what they start.
fact: if we cut and run we will lose street cred.
Is that so? Remember Nixon and Vietnam or Bush Sr. stopping stormin Norman short? Apparently, you have selective memory. Are you also saying that any Republican who opposes Bush is a liberal? It is possible to be a conservative and a Republican in this country and still oppose things Bush has done.
i have to learn to put only one point in my posts. when you assert multiple points you never get a reasonable response.
i guess the finish what they started could be a little off base but comparitively speaking it it holds water.
and yes it is possible to be a conservative and not agree wuth bush but in light of recent political news unlikely.
it is a war between parties and if you are not with us then you are against us. this is sad but true.
we will lose street cred if we pull out. Iran already labeled us a paper tiger.
do you agree that if given to opportunity you could get decapitated?
do you also agree that libs/most press embellish to much to confuse the facts?
The most amazing thing about conservatives is that there is no moral component to their thought process. We need to stay the course even though we are doing the wrong thing for the wrong reasons, costing thousands of lives, billions of dollars, and that our lies and misconduct have cause us to be hated and mistrusted by our enemies and our allies, and that we are exhausting our military resources when we face very real and immediate treats throughout the globe, etc.
As Spike Lee counseled: "Do the right thing".
To address certain misinformation cast out by the non knowing. Congressman Jindal happens to be Catholic.
Mr. Breaux IS not a legitimate candidate is he is ineligible ... period. If he is so enamored with the fact of helping the state recover. Why didn't he move back two years ago? He may be a good candidate but I'll be damned if I will allow the laws bent so that he can run.
The question is will Breaux take Foti down with him?
A smart challenger will question Foti's ability to interpret the La Constitution. So if Breaux loses, then the same bloc of voters could also take Foti out.
Risky business, politics.
What is the last real frontier? The middle east. Why are we there? To liberate oppressed people. When would you prefer to destroy evil, now or when they have better weapons? Lives are lost in war. Deal with it.
You act as though libs are the moral compass by which all actions are gaged. If I composed a list of the most immoral acts I have witnessed in my life 99% of them would be because libs have no traditional values and believe that morals can be tweeked.
To do the right thing one must first look beyond ones own delima and determine what is best for everybody...not just you and your poitical party.
1. Jindal "happens to be" whatever you want him to be.
2. Who do you think should render an Attorney General's Opinion if not the duly elected lawful and authorized Attorney General.
3. I was disheartened to learn that you "will not permit" Breaux to run. He would have been a superb governor.
Dear Anon 1:51:00 PM,
Did you vote for Jacques?
No, I voted for Delores. I'm kind of a good government and integrity freak.
Your also obviously a jackass.
Anyone else here tired of seeing Dallas Hixon on TV???
He is so narcissistic.
Oh, and to the previous poster....I am pretty sure that you meant "you're"
Now let me be sure I got this straight. For the past 50 years, the people of this state have been lied to, used, and raped by the politicians they elected to office. So much so that Louisiana ranks last in just about everything.
Now you idiot Breaux supporters want to let the people decide who our next Governor will be instead of enforcing the constitution?
Collectively the people of this state have proven themselves incapabile of making a sound choice about their leadership, Kathleen Blank-o proves that.
The entire city council attended the first day of mediation. What a joke. First they all want to run things as though they are each "mayors" of the city and now they each want to be "attorneys and mediators" for the city. No wonder it was agreed by the real attorneys to conduct things by phone and take the idiots out of the process. Anybody who wonders what is the biggest obstacle to this city's progress need look no further than the Alexandria City Council.
The fact that you reside in Pineville means that you are a person of rare descernment and intellect. Your community has fought off demon rum, evolution, segregation, and rockNroll music and now you are prepared to undo the democratic process. How funny that you would trash Blanco and not mention Fat Mike Foster.
Hold your nose and get past Breaux's party affiliation and see the kind of senator and statesman he was and is. Come on. You can do it. You are the "Pineville Resident".
I am told that former judge Ross Foote was not very pleased with Aymond's insults and may be planning a little something for the rotund one.
Where I choose to reside is not important. Where John Breaux has chosen to reside is very important to the upcoming governor’s race. Breaux is a Maryland resident, period. The entire state of Louisiana knows this.
Should he decide to run, his entire campaign will be spent trying to escape the question…Is your candidacy legal?
Let the people decide who they would like in the governor's mansion. You have far more important things to worry about - somebody is trying to sell a beer on mainstreet.
What exactly has Breaux done in the last 30 yrs. that makes him so special? At least Jindal is fresh and is hungry to lead. I just do see these same traits in Breaux.
That's fine. Vote for Piyush. I shall vote for Breaux. Ain't America great!!::
Why do you call him Piyush?
How come let the people decide only applies to Breaux?
What about letting the people vote on... let's say, abortion? Or alcohol sales?
No, No, only the courts can do that!
Why do you call him Piyush?
Because that is his name.
Should he decide to run, his entire campaign will be spent trying to escape the question…Is your candidacy legal?
David Duke came close to winning with much more harmful questions.
I am told that former judge Ross Foote was not very pleased with Aymond's insults and may be planning a little something for the rotund one.
That's ok. Many members of the local Bar are not pleased with Foote. I seriously doubt Foote wants Wilbert Saucier and Wayne Gaspard would be very happy for Foote to rehash his shenanigans.
Weiss & Goldring store in Mall is closing...Big sale later this week.
I am not surprised to hear that at all. Every time I go in there there is noone in there.
The story says they are moving to a renovated building in front of the mall - either the old Penny's auto place or Myron's Office. Does Ted still have that concubine?
What will be built at the old Service Merchandise site?
where was breaux's influence in washington after katrina and rita? believe this or not , but he's no longer the BMOC up there. remember his name was closely linked to the abramoff scandal.
What does Piyush mean?
http://cenlamedia.blogspot.com/
Weiss & Goldring is moving to the old Penny's Automotive building.
The Old Service merchandise site is the location for Circut City.
Best Buy is going to build in front of the old K-Mart.
Thanks for information
I am young and still learning about politix but why do Democrats want to raise taxes? I thought people hated to pay taxes.
Democrats want your tax dollars so they can fulfill promises they made to give things to other people for the votes they recieve.
No president in the history of this republic has ever spent as much of our money or grown government as much Bush. And that was after a democrat balanced the books and brought all of us unprecedented prosperity. Clinton may have gotten a blow job but Bush fucked the rest of us.
How, i ask how in the Hell did Clinton balance the books? He eliminated the National debt. He may have reduced or eliminated deficit spending but he sure as hell didn't balance no books. As far as trying to state Bush has done this or that - anybody can use facts to disprove or prove anything.
Today's dollars, yesterday's dollars? Would the expansion for WWII equal the expansion of today? Would the wartime expenditure of WWII for manpower, material, lend lease, (in today's dollars) not exceed Bush's expenditures.
I thought Greg was the champiuon BS spinner on this site but we have a Democratic liberal that is now the new champion.
Sorry that I used facts. They really seem to throw you off. The hell with the facts. What we need are meaningless slogans like "Mission Accomplished" and "Stay the Course".
WW II - is that the one where we were attacked by a foreign power and went to war with the support of congressional declaration and the support of the entire nation? I remember that war. It was justified.
"WW II - is that the one where we were attacked by a foreign power and went to war with the support of congressional declaration and the support of the entire nation? I remember that war. It was justified."
That sounds alot like the iraq war. We were attacked, most elected leaders voted to kick Saddams ass, and the nation wanted vengence for the destruction of 911.
Just because we didn't win over night is no reason to give up.
Didn't Bush keep Clintons director of the CIA once elected? If so then the intelligence was the same and that makes Clinton just as responsible as Bush for going to war, though the media and the lying Dems would never admit it.
Also, did not most everybody think that Saddam had WMD's (meaning nukes)? We know he had various types of chem. weapons.
I hope if we get attacked again we have Hilary or Edwards in office. We need some leadership that knows how to vanquish evil!
Spend a dollar and get the Newsweek special issue entitled VOICES OF THE FALLEN that just came out. If you would like to share the blame for these tragic stories, help yourself.
The only people to blame are the guys that would cut your head off.
I do not understand how we are supposed to wage war when there are so many weak Americans that think peace will prevail over Islamofacsism.
Youse guys need to look to South America and Mexico for the next round of assult on the United States. Lupe will be driving up to your carport in his stolen SUV and putting his AK in your face for your groceries and your daughter while you are boo hooing over what happened. We are not an island anymore folks.
Could we just nuke Mexico. That way it will create a radioactive wasteland for the south americans to cross. When they finally get to our boarder they will be weak from the radiation and we could pick 'em off easy.
Just laugh at (not with) the joker who said Clinton balanced the budget.
Clinton never introd a balanced budget until the Repiblicans won control of the house and senate. And that's a fact, jack.
Also, we do agree on one issue. Bush has spent way too much money on his compassionate conservatism, but electing a democrap ain't gonna solve that problem, now is it?
Why do Dems want America to lose this war so bad?
Why do the republicans enjoy all those young Americans and Iraqi children being killed and mutilated?
City help sought in Bentley sale
By Billy Gunn
bgunn@thetowntalk.com
(318) 487-6378
The Baton Rouge group trying to purchase and restore The Hotel Bentley to four-star status today will tell the City Council that Alexandria’s financial help is welcome.
Republicans don't enjoy seeing American military killed. Actually you disrespect the servicemembers by referring to them as children. These young people are shouldering a much heavier burden then you assholes that do not show the proper respect due.
They are apolitical, going and doing as they are told. Talk about politicians all you want but leave our mature, defenders of freedom alone.
Obviously Dems like the mutilated children or they would not want our military to leave them in the hands of terrorist.
Libs are the biggest cowards ever. I know so many of them and all they can ever say is "peace." I'm sorry but I value my head and would rather bring the war to them rather than have our home bombed.
Get a clue you stupid wimp.
How many American soldiers and Iraqi children are you willing to kill and maim before you are willing to face the truth. And long are you going to sit there on your fat civilian safe state-side ass and talk about how brave and loyal and valient you are before you have had enough spilling of other folk's blood? You are not a patriot - you don't even have the courage to admit how wrong this war is. The American people have finally figured you out and no longer trust your motives or your methods.
You value your head and would rather "bring" them the war. . . ."
You mean that you would rather "send" them the war. Sending young people to die for no reason is murder - and you are the murderer.
and the killing of an unborn child by abortion isnt?!!! you are truly a stupid fuck
Yeah you are right. When most of your dem leadership voted to go to Iraq they were wrong. We should just leave so that Iraq can get their shit together. Iran and Syria will let them grow into a democracy. Right?
War isn't murder, it's war.
You libs are so weak and clueless. Murder would be if we took all of our military and poisoned them.
War is when an enemy, say the Taliban, destroys our buildings and kills civilians.
Do you Democrats remember 911?
Obviously not.
What about Iran taking British hostages? They must be having a pizza party.
Your Dem leadership had to bride other Dems with pork and threaten to yank earmarks to get them to vote on this bill. The leftwing is so easy to control. You just offer them money.
One thought would be is to withdraw all our military from the region and then let the localsdecide which tribal chief to follow. Let them kill each other in the name of God and then when the dust settles and oil is not affordable if it is even available we will let the liberals figure out the situation.
It is a good thing we did not have to fight WWII this way. We would still be trying to bring peace to Europe and defeat Hitler. Don't remember to many people caring about the German civilians killed in the bombing raids. "Kill them all let God sort them out."
What will happen is one muslam tribe will once again rule the others, decide they are the baddest bastards in the sand they will start screwing with Israel. Then Israel will turn the sand to green glass and problem over with.
If the media was as abundant and biased as it is today then there would be a Nazi Eurpoe.
I cannot understand why Democrats would agree with terrorist before there own fellow citizens.
Couldn't the Dems have a half of the country for them to rule as they see fit and the conservatives have a half to rule as they see fit? That would make things much easier.
We tried that in the middle of the 1800's. Northern Bastards would not leave us alone.
The Town Talk is reporting that the group that is alledgedly buying the Bently is going to be at the Council Committee Meeting today asking the City to participate in the purchase. Boy, what a suprise that is. I know this is an important building, but whay should the City put a bunch of money into it if others aren't willing to do it with their own money. My grandmother used to say "If something sounds to good to be true, it probably is".
Didn't someone, not too long ago, throw out an appraised value on the Bently of 6.4 Mil? The cash sale when Dean bought it was 5 mil in '98. Why is it worth 12.5 mil now? Does anyone smell a fraud being perpetrated?
Brown fights dismissal from Cleco case
By Billy Gunn
bgunn@thetowntalk.com
(318) 487-6378
Bridgett Brown this week in U.S. District Court contested her dismissal in the Alexandria-Cleco Corp. case and wants the city to honor the contract she signed in 2005 for 10 percent of Cleco awards.
In papers filed Monday, she asks Judge Dee Drell to let her intervene in the dispute.
Asked for comment Wednesday morning, Brown referred questions to her attorney, Larry English of Shreveport.
ADVERTISEMENT
English in court papers and in a telephone interview Wednesday stated that the City Council approved Brown’s contract in July of 2005, and that it is the legislative body she answers to and works for, not the executive branch.
City Attorney Charles “Chuck” Johnson, who works for Mayor Jacques Roy, discontinued Brown’s involvement via a letter in February. At stake is the 10 percent stated in her contract that Brown was to receive if Cleco is found to owe Alexandria money.
In the termination letter to Brown, Johnson cited professional conduct rules in stating that Brown had harmed her client, the city of Alexandria.
“A lawyer shall not use information relating to representation of a client to the disadvantage of the client unless the client gives informed consent,” Johnson wrote.
Johnson did not elaborate on how Brown had disadvantaged the city, and did not return a call for comment Wednesday.
But in a letter to the council and Roy dated March 6 and faxed to The Town Talk on Wednesday, Brown states it was because she answered questions posed to her by the council.
“How possibly can attorney Brown be found guilty of an ethical violation by stating to the body that hired her it has the ultimate authority to hire special counsel?” English stated.
Brown and English also stated that Roy could have ethical problems in his current role as one of the negotiators in the ongoing mediation with Cleco -- a conflict the mayor denies.
Alexandria and Cleco officials participated in mediation talks in Lake Charles on Sunday and Monday.
Roy and a team of attorneys, the council and other city executives were present at the Lake Charles mediation, with the mayor taking a lead role.
English states in the March 6 letter that because of Roy’s involvement in another case related to the city-Cleco dispute, he needs a waiver from the council to participate in the city’s case.
“If no such waiver exists, the mayor is bound by Louisiana rules of professional conduct to recuse himself from the case,” English states.
The mediation, which has federal court oversight and will continue for the next month, is an attempt at an expedited completion of the ongoing dispute, in which Alexandria contends its ratepayers were overcharged for years.
Will Jindal do to the governors race what Sanjaya has done to American Idol?
two quick things. though i really want to see the bentley open, i told you all along that this sale will never go through. it was a political stunt by myron and harry pr-election for their council seats. the buyers told the council, oh, no, we have plenty of money, we just want some of your money. right. secondly, this bridgett brown suit is gonna provide plenty of entertainment for years to come. her lawyers, per the town talk have already accused our city officials of having "jungle fever". rich.
CITY CHARTER
Sec. 4-02. Legal division.
(A) The head of the legal division shall be the city attorney who shall be appointed by the mayor, subject to confirmation by the council, and shall serve at the pleasure of the mayor. He shall be an attorney licensed to practice in the courts of Louisiana with at least five (5) years' experience in the practice of law.
(B) The city attorney shall serve as chief legal adviser to the mayor, city council and all divisions or departments, offices and agencies, shall represent the city in all legal proceedings and shall perform any other duties prescribed by this charter or by ordinance.
(C) Any assistant city attorneys authorized by the city council shall be appointed by the city attorney and serve at his pleasure.
(D) No special legal counsel shall be employed by the city except by written contract and approval of the city council.
Seems simple to a non-lawyer. Also seems simple that BB, even though authorized and approved by the city council, serves at the pleasure of the city attorney.
It is unfortunate that many people see the antics of race-baiting lawyers such as Bridgett Brown and Larry English and use that as a broad brush to paint a picture of all black attorneys. Alexandria has several good, competent black attorneys, male and female, who rely on their legal ability rather than crying racism every time they do not get their way. It is time for Bridgett Brown to ride away into the sunset, never to stir the waters of discontent again. Good riddance.
I still want to see the ethics opinion on the Council authorizing a contract for an attorney who is a tenant of one of the councilmen. With Bridgett's attorney claiming the Mayor has an ethical problem, why has no one brought this up?
have your say, you know you want to
http://cenlamedia.blogspot.com/
When the smoke finally clears on how Brigett got this and other appointments, she will likely lose her license and Myron will have huge political and criminal problems. I, for one, welcome the whole story being aired.
I still want to see the ethics opinion on the Council authorizing a contract for an attorney who is a tenant of one of the councilmen.
Then grow yourself a set of balls and file a complaint with the Ethics Board.
I am sick and tired of being sick and tired of the wheeling and dealing of our city council. Please stop giving the ok to spend our money you are stealing under the guise of "fuel cost", by tripling our utility bills. I did not vote for any of you in city hall. I do vote in every election. We don't need that big gray elephant called the Bentley Hotel. Please stop this insanity.
"You People" are so damn stupid. Yes ALL SEVEN council members attended the mediation in Lake Charles and because you are stupid ass red necks I will explain why this was necessary. First, you idiots, THEY (meaning all seven council men...for the red necks that do not understand) DO NOT TRUST Roy. Second, Roy has some serious problems with the Bar Association due to the fact that he "JUST RECENTLY" withdrew as counsel for Sam Samsing AND his ethical problems in his current role as one of the negotiators in the ongoing mediation with Cleco. Why wouldn't they attend and why the hell would they trust Roy and his team. If you red necks could divert some of that hatred away from Bridgett Brown and see whats really going on maybe, just maybe you can become a red neck and not a stupid ass red neck.
So it is the combination of Roy, the council, and BB that is the problem? Are they all untrustworthy or is it just Roy and his team or a select few council members or a blend of both?
its interesting to see that the cenla antics blog made the paper yet no one on here has commented about it. the anonymous posters that come on here and post lies are going to make this blog completely irrelevant. when you post a comment that is directed at people personally with no facts to back it up you make yourself and your opinion irrelevant. just look at what mr aymond is considered by mosy people on this blog. once he admitted that his deal with roy hebron and rich dupree was personal he became irrelevant and the target of your ire. mr carriere i implore you to make where you have to atleast post with some initials or name and not just anonymously. the traffic may slow down but atleast the blog may recover some of the readers and posters that left b/c of all the b/s that has gone on here.
your problem with this blog is also my concern with biased media in general. none of my young friends trust media anymore because whatever content you need to support your agenda can be found somewhere. i think a rennaisance is coming where journalist will be held accountable for there "halftruths."
i just like to anonymously ask questions. why should i be outed for my intrigue.
like you said, its called accountability. nothing wrong with asking questions. thats completely different than making false accusations b/c you dont like somebody.
Second, Roy has some serious problems with the Bar Association due to the fact that he "JUST RECENTLY" withdrew as counsel for Sam Samsing AND his ethical problems in his current role as one of the negotiators in the ongoing mediation with Cleco.
If you really believe that, why don't you file a complaint with the Office of Disciplinary Counsel? Or is it, as I suspect, just mouthing off bullshit?

Ok, Bridgette...
I wouldn't expect you to know that the reason the council is there is because they have to approve any settlement that is agreed upon. That is the only reason they are there.
You got to love Frankie Rasberry. Mike Marcotte and Despino running their bullshit on the Council about what "a portion" of a letter said. Frankie should them their letter said the same as his - "they ommitted reading that part to the council." Lady Lawyer Sylvester amening Marcotte and Despino trying to convince the council that Razz was verbally told. Seems like the City's electrical department and purchasing department continue to mess up procurement procedures and attempt to BS their way out of the situation.
Roy has his hands full with that bunch.
If you really believe that, why don't you file a complaint with the Office of Disciplinary Counsel? Or is it, as I suspect, just mouthing off bullshit?
I'll take it a step further for you....If it is ever revealed that this person is an attorney (ie..officer of the court), then THEY are required to report any ethical violations which they believe may have occurred.
All of this bullshit talk from Bridgett Farrakhan and her "Hymietown" lawyer is just that. If they truly believe what they are saying about Mayor Roy, then THEY are OBLIGATED to report him IMMEDIATELY!!!
Of course, the Louisiana Attorney Disciplinary Board does frown on frivolous allegations.
I moved to Alexandria from New Jersey four years ago and when I first got here I would tell my friends back home that some of the white people here were still stuck in the 1920s.
But this Bridgette character shows how racism works both ways in Alexandria. She and her lawyer are sick.
You got that right!
As the Chief Executive Officer, it is Mayor Roy's dutie to be present in the mediation proceedings. The council was along for the ride as a courtesy. See paragraphs 3 & 8
Sec. 3-07. Powers and duties of the mayor.
The mayor shall be the chief executive officer of the city. He shall have the following powers and duties:
(1) Appoint and suspend or remove for just cause all city employees and appointive administrative officers provided for by or under this charter, except as otherwise provided by law, this charter, civil service or other personnel rules adopted pursuant to this charter. He may authorize any administrative officer who is subject to his direction and supervision to exercise these powers with respect to subordinates in that officer's division, department, office or agency.
(2) Direct and supervise the administration of all divisions, departments, offices and agencies of the city except as otherwise provided by this charter or by law.
(3) See that all laws, provisions of this charter and acts of the council, subject to enforcement by him or by officers subject to his direction and supervision, are faithfully executed.
(4) Prepare and submit the annual budget and five (5) year capital program to the council.
(5) Submit to the council and make available to the public a complete report on the finances and administrative activities of the city as of the end of each fiscal year.
(6) Make such other reports as the council may reasonably request to enable the council to conduct its councilmanic function.
(7) Keep the council fully advised as to the financial condition and future needs of the city and make such recommendations to the council concerning the affairs of the city as he deems desirable.
(8) Perform such other duties as are specified in this charter or may be required by the council.
my new hero!
http://patdollard.com/
he is an ex-lib from LA who went to Iraq and made a documentary about the war. read through his website and remember that its not to late to leave the far left.
"Seems like the City's electrical department and purchasing department continue to mess up procurement procedures and attempt to BS their way out of the situation."
Was Mr. Despino caught off guard by the letter? I'm sure he was but in the grand scheme it doesn't matter.
From what I heard Razz, not once, but twice failed to correctly complete his bid paperwork. He completely controlled his own fate; he has no one to blame but himself.
The letter, although a gross clerical error, has no real weight. The state bid law appears to have been followed to a "t." Do not chastise these people for doing there job; after all, they just have to follow the law. No big deal right?
Roy should be proud to have employees on staff who have an attention to detail so things like the "cost share" debacle are not repeated.
If you are so sure there is a cover-up; make a public records request and show us all how you are smarter than a purchasing manager, two lawyers, and engineer put together.
Does Bridgett Brown and/ or Kelvin Sanders actually rent office space from Myron Lawson?
Seems to me that if a lawyer were in line to make a fee of 10% of a potential multi-million dollar settlment or judgment, the lawyer might be inclined to go to the lead lawyer (city attorney) and his boss (mayor) and make amends, swallow huge doses of pride, smile for the cameras, work on the case, and collect the fee in the end.
"Does Bridgett Brown and/ or Kelvin Sanders actually rent office space from Myron Lawson? "
Yes, both of them do. Severe ethics problem there. The city attorney who hired Bridgett Brown, a tenant of Councilman Myron Lawson, as the city's lawyer on the Cleco case is also a tenant of Councilman Lawson himself.
"Does Bridgett Brown and/ or Kelvin Sanders actually rent office space from Myron Lawson? "
Yes, both of them do.
But do they actually pay rent to Myron? Is that building owned by Myron? If true, why hasn't this been reported to the State Ethics Board?
Word on the street from those who seemed to know was that the rent was/is substantial (10-15K / mo)and is the vehicle for make cash transfers between the parties for services rendered. Bear in mind that $0.85 to 1.25 ft. is a moderate monthly rent range, so I am wondering what amount of square foootage they rent. There must be a basement because the first floor appears to be approximately 3000 sq ft. total that also houses the State Farm office.
So Kelvin Sanders and Bridgette Brown pay the Councilman an inflated rental rate as a back channel for political favors?
If this is true, it does need to be reported to the State Ethics Board, and if anyone knows it to be true, they have an obligation to report it.
Cover up? You brought up the subject of a cover up not I. I merly remarked on the ineptness of the trio in not even being aware of what they said in their own letter and then trying to BS the council. The bid should be totally rejected and rebid if Frankie's was informed it would be. Despino and Sylvester and Marcotte looked like deer caught in the headlight when Frankie showed the Council that their letter said the same as his. "Administrative error"
Prior to that Despino and Marcotte, with Sylvester amening them, went through a tap dance routine about how Frankie had been informed "officially" which turned to verbally that his bid was non-responsive.
If Frankie takes the situation further you lose. You folks been playing it your way far too long and now the "outsiders" such as Frankie are bringing the situation out in the open figuring the new Mayor is as good as his word and wants to clean up things.
If Frankie has proof that he was formally notified the bid would be rebid then it should. You are only as credible as your actions and continuing to blame your lack of knowledge and your administrative errors on vendors leaves you no credibility.
I like your wording "state bid law appears..."
Public records request? I have no dog in this particular fight. Why would I need to make a public records request. Frankie has his letter. No more documents needed. Maybe foolishly I still be believe court decisions are based upon fact not some "appears to have been". Frankie got screwed out of the work and the trio tried make his compliant go away with a tap dance routine. How will a public records request make that fact go away?
If Roy has any intelligence, and I believe he is very intelligence, he is aware of the "shuck and jive" Despino , Marcotte and Sylvester ran on the council and out of self preservation he should order the rebid.
I especially liked Despino reading a portion of the letter and then discovering it said the same thing Frankie's did. Hell the trio did not even know what their evidence said before they started attacting Frankie.
"If you are so sure there is a cover-up; make a public records request and show us all how you are smarter than a purchasing manager, two lawyers, and engineer put together."
To which a natural response would be "a hit dog howls." If you have no factual defense a typical defense of last resort is attack the integrity of the individual. Bet BC doesn't approve of your posting.
Greg Aymond's present situation with Pineville relative to a Public Records Request indicates the games governmental lawyers, purchasing agents and electrical engineers (opps is Dupree an engineer - call him a government employee) will go to.
Attacking Depino's intergrity would be like installing a sprinkler system over the atlantic ocean.
I believe the building is in Karen Lawson's name.
Your belief would be wrong as the conveyance records show the cash sale in the names of Myron and Karen and the tax roll reflect the same. It always nice to have the facts.
This should be an interesting election. It will let you know who really ahs La. best interests at heart.
If you come across someone that you know is supporting Breaux, tell them without hesitation...
that you will start suggesting to folks to take their business outside the area, because it obviously doesn't matter where one lives.
For example, tell teachers that support Breaux, that you will recommend home schooling or private school to parents.
Lawyers that support Breaux, tell them that you'll recommend people call Morris Bart (I think he's in BR)
Doctors that support Breaux, tell them that you'll recommend patients go to Houston.
Retailers that support Breaux, tell them that you'll recommend internet shopping.
When enuff Breaux folks understand quid pro quo, Breaux will be treated like the carpetbagger he is.
Great points. Have any polls been done to size up the Breaux support?
You may remember Karen (Mrs. Myron) Lawson from some of the low profile LLCs that she was in together with Kelvin and Bridget for the purpose of "consulting" for the city and other governmental entities. Also another tenant from that building that has had some degree of financial success with city contracts is Mr. Gamlin and his wife, Mrs. Fuller, of the $100,000 water slide consulting contract.
How 'bout this? If you oppose Breaux, instead of typical republican dirty tricks, you need to be telling people why they should trust Piyush. Didn't you folks learn anything from the Brewer humiliation?
Your belief would be wrong as the conveyance records show the cash sale in the names of Myron and Karen and the tax roll reflect the same. It always nice to have the facts.

That's why I said BELIEVE - I didn't have time to log into the Clerk of Court or the Assessor to look at the tax rolls this morning - I'm glad you did.
Dems invented the "dirty trick." For instance you are trying to allign Jindal with Brewer in hopes of casting disparaging light on a superior candidate. Stop being juvenile and help our great state into the 21st century.
What does Piyush mean?
It is easy to humiliate honest folks. Liberals have no shame and will try to win at all costs.
1 aspect of Jindals Platform:
Whistleblower Protection Enhancement Act of 2007: This bill protects any lawful disclosure by a federal employee that the employee reasonably believes is credible evidence of waste, abuse, gross mismanagement, or substantial danger to public health or safety. I am committed to fighting waste, fraud, and corruption in government, and I will keep working to ensure that "good government" is not just rhetoric used during elections.
http://patdollard.com/
"Piyush" is Farsi for "he who will promise anything for a few rupees"
a piyush will promise you that he will teach your elephant to tap dance for 3 rupees. Your elephant will never learn to tapdance and when you ask for your 3 rupees back the piyush will tell you that (1) somebody switched elephants;
(2) not my fault your elephant is stupid; or
(3) no, I said I will train it to crap pants.
"you need to be telling people why they should trust Piyush"
You really didn't bring up truct in this election didja?
Now, I guess you'll ask me to trust that Breaux never really moved to Md. Sheesh. Democrats, what a collection of hypocrites!
Sounds like your elephant might need lessons.
Check this out:
"While John Breaux was sitting at the feet of Edwin Edwards, learning how to become a proper Louisiana politician, I was working in this state, and suffering under the tax burden his mentor created. While John Breaux was campaigning for his first term in congress, I was watching as Edwards’ corrupt tentacles wrapped around each and every department in state government, turning each into a bribery, kickback, money machine.
When Breaux was vaulted into the U.S. Senate by the seedy political machine that Edwards created, the good people of Louisiana were becoming intimately acquainted with names like Clyde Vidrine, Tongson Park and Carlos Marcello. While I remained in my home state, Breaux stayed safely away from Louisiana lest the stench of his closest political ally splash on his tailored Washington suit."
New editorial by Kavanagh at The Northside Journal
I am committed to fighting waste, fraud, and corruption in government, and I will keep working to ensure that "good government" is not just rhetoric used during elections.
Bullshit LOL. I know of several letters and contacts to his office, concerning matters of corruption in this state, none of which were answered by even his staff. Same lip service, different package.
"I am committed to fighting waste, fraud, and corruption in government, and I will keep working to ensure that "good government" is not just rhetoric used during elections."
Then why don't we start on a local level? Is Myron Lawson really renting out office space to the former city attorney Kelvin Sanders and the city's former Cleco attorney Bridgette Brown? If so, are they really paying an inflated rate?
Why is this just now coming out? Where has the media been on this? It should be easily provable. Is the media too afraid to ask the tough questions? Are they too close to the politicians they cover?
I'm not sure why anyone would be afraid of Myron Lawson. He barely won the last election over that strange doctor. If he really has financial and business arrangements with Sanders and Brown, then this needs to be immediately investigated.
What LLCs are you talking about?
"You People" are so damn stupid. Yes ALL SEVEN council members attended the mediation in Lake Charles and because you are stupid ass red necks I will explain why this was necessary. First, you idiots, THEY (meaning all seven council men...for the red necks that do not understand) DO NOT TRUST Roy.

Why wouldn't they attend and why the hell would they trust Roy and his team. If you red necks could divert some of that hatred away from Bridgett Brown and see whats really going on maybe, just maybe you can become a red neck and not a stupid ass red neck.

You should be ashamed of yourself.
I am pretty sure you have just violated Mayor Roy's 3rd, 9th, and 16th amendment rights. I know you are just exercising your 8th amendment right, but come-on.
The administration deserves it. Lawyer English accused Chuck Johnson of trying to deny him his 5th amendment right of free speech. I am starting to live for alternate Tuesday evenings. I'm thinking that they need to rerun that ad of Brewers but they will need more than one brown pig at the trough.
The Babs Legget blog posting on the KLAX page is about 3 weeks old. How lazy is she? All of the controversy swirling around the city government, the sheriff's race, the governor contest, the new Iran hostage crises, and the Weiss & Goldrings retreat and she can't come up with a paragraph of news? Loooooooooooozur!
The administration deserves it. Lawyer English accused Chuck Johnson of trying to deny him his 5th amendment right of free speech.
There is no 5th Amendment Right of Freedom of Speech. That right is in the 1st Amendment. Obviously, he was mistaken. The 5th, on the otherhand, includes the famous "right to remain silent", which he and Ms. Brown should exercise more often.
Wait - you mean someone on here actually expects our local media to investigate something??? What a crock! We don't have investigative reporters in Alexandria any longer - they left when Gannett and General Media or whoever the hell it is that owns KALB came to town.
i know it's just a dream... but i hope our media does its job and investigates this, especially since lawson's tenant is trying to get herself back on a case she never deserved to be on in the first place.... does anyone understand what conflict of interest means?
This is no abstract legal issue. What we are talking about is what happens to our money. The counsel puts on this act like they give a shit about poor folks on fixed incomes and public assistance but they don't hesitate to take a couple million away from the people who paid the money out and are due the refund in favor of "somebody that looks like them". And that moron fowler is one of the driving forces. And you are probably right that Myron will get his cut thru rent.
Chuck Johnson was an assistant DA. You can be sure that he shared his experiences of Lawson with some of the folks up there. I guess getting re-elected is so important to Downs that he won't do his job.
maybe someone should pose this question on the new media blog
Just the facts, please...I am wondering what the significance of someone's name being Piyush [or anything not WASP, perhaps] has in the upcoming gubernatorial election.
I would appreciate some verifiable information, or tips for obtaining it, that would substantiate some of the allegations made here as to Jindal's character and his worthiness of our consideration as voters. WWW addresses containing statistics, news articles, or any other reputable sources would be appreciated.

Absolutely nothing. However, somebody named Piyush that calls himself Bobby can lead people to believe either that he is embarrassed of his heritage, not honest, or a combination of the two.
3504 Consulting.... 3504 Masonic..... Why are Karen, Kelvin, and Bridgett all in the consulting business together?
All right, I'm listening...
How is it that someone with the name Piyush and the nickname Bobby has done that?
I looked at some of these LLCs and what is interesting to me is how many of them are no longer in good standing. It's easy and simple to file a report to ensure the business remains in good standing, even if the business collapsed or was sold. The fact that many of these companies never filed annual reports should raise more than a few eyebrows. What information are they withholding? What is the need for this type of clerical negligence?
WHAT ARE THEY HIDING?
YOUR MONEY!!!
Piyush 49.6% John 50.4%
What the heck do you want the local media to investigate? People with LLC's? Let's make a list. Send it to the dumb%*&ts themsleves at cenlamedia.blogspot.com
In the past the answer has been if you are too stupid to know forget it. Well that's not going to cut it. Put up or shut up. You better be prepared to make a list of the silk stockings and do the same LLC check too.
Just found this gem on there.."You know who we are. We're the ones that let you down by not reporting the stories you want to see. We are all ears. Tell us what to ask and how to hold the powerful accountable. We are ready to listen."

I, for one, am more than interested in seeing how to "silk stockings'" LLCs are directly tied to the city attorney, the city's Cleco attorney, and a city Councilman-at-Large... but I doubt you're going to find that.
It may be true that this type of shit happened in the past with other Councils, but that is no excuse for PRESENT unethical behavior.
I agree with what was said earlier... these people like to brag about how they're looking after people in low-income neighborhoods, but Kelvin and Myron seemed to have no problem giving their friend and office mate a financially lucrative appointment to a case she was hardly qualified to litigate.
It's already obvious Sanders had no problems with engaging in potentially unethical behavior when he landed his "wife" the housing authority contract. Hey, does anyone know who represents the housing authority as legal counsel????
