If you run some sort of "identification service" today, specifically in the private sector but also including within the government at ...
===a couple of days ago we posted here about how central la politics blog caught bridgett brown's brother garry brown running a comment scam on the kalb video blog. yesterday we were perusing the town talk's website and wound up at their post of alexandria, la. city council president everett hobbs, by now, infamous letter. we very seldom read the story chat comments because people do like to run comment scams (if you want to know more about how comment, message board and forum scammers operate - eric hufschmid explains how here) but since at that post all the town talk had was a link to a .pdf file of the councilman hobbs letter we couldnt help but notice the story chat comments.
this one by "pinevillain" specifically:

====over on the kalb video blog post "alexandria city council legal committee - july 3rd" (we couldnt help but notice how this time kalb tells us up front that its "only a portion of the meeting") that there are five comments.
====kudo's to the alexandria daily town talk for not falling for or being intimidated by alexandria city counsel president everett hobbs recent charges of racism. we also like the way that the town talk turns it around and puts the focus squarely on the remaining six city councilmen to do something about their failing leader:
The body for which he speaks includes six other council members: Charles "Chuck" Fowler, Roosevelt Johnson, Myron Lawson, Louis Marshall, Harry Silver and Charles Smith Jr.so will the remaining six city councilmen step up to the plate and remove president hobbs? we're not very encouraged since it appears that president hobbs together with at least four other councilmen (the bridgett brown 5) appear to be operating together in the same organized crime ring.
The councilmen have chosen and endorsed Everett Hobbs as their leader, so they are the chorus behind what their leader says. They can sing his praises, or they can remain quiet. It's their choice. Either way, through praise or silence, they say the same thing: that they support their leader.
On the other hard, they can choose to criticize their leader -- because they disagree with him, because they think he stepped over the line, because they think he is wrong about something, or because they think he may be unfit to handle the responsibilities of the position.
in a side note, it appears that bridgett brown's brother, garry brown, writing under his favorite sock puppet "love4aex" (all town talk posts by love4aex) after reading this town talk editoral promises not to town talk
well well well looks like someone (besides us) in cenla has finally read the art of the deal. in that book donald trump tells how he financied the mixed use development trump tower by preselling the apartments and retail space. so, welcome to 1987 alexandria!
