Seriously, bitch... is this the best you can do?
No. That's the best you can do. lol

I did more research on this topic than you ever had.
Apparently not.

The first incident happened back in 1995 and it was already settled without having to go to court.
uh huh. :rolleyes:

As for the other incident in April 2008, allegations were investigated by local police, but no charges were filed and the alleged victim recanted her story. Attempts were made to reopen the investigation but were negated by Sacremento Police a month later.

Rhee is Kevin Johnson's fiancee who is reported to be linked to the Sex Scandal cover up. Here's what really happened:

Rhee’s involvement in the probe stems from the statements of Jacqueline Wong-Hernandez, a former St. Hope staff member, to federal investigators. According to an interview report, Wong-Hernandez told an investigator that Rhee was well known as someone who filled several roles with Johnson’s St. Hope organization and would use Johnson’s office when she was in town. Wong-Hernandez said that Rhee ‘played the role as “Damage Control”. When there was a problem at St. HOPE, Ms. Rhee was there the next day taking care of the problem.’
When the sexual misconduct allegations were raised, Rhee contacted Wong-Hernandez to figure out what had happened, telling her “she was making this her number one priority and she would take care of the situation.” Subsequently, Wong-Hernandez found out that Johnson’s lawyer had contacted the accuser, after which the accuser dropped the complaint.
Disgusted with how the incident had been handled, Wong-Hernandez quit St. Hope, and it was Rhee who conducted the exit interview. She told Rhee the reason she was leaving was the way St. Hope had handled the sexual misconduct allegation. According to the interview report, “Ms, Wong-Hernandez also informed Ms. Rhee that she didn’t trust the management at St. HOPE. Ms. Rhee documented the interview in her daily planner and responded to Ms. Wong-Hernandez by thanking her for bringing it to her attention how disorganized the program had become. Ms. Rhee didn’t try to talk Ms. Wong-Hernandez into staying.”
The L.A. Times further reports that Rhee spoke directly to Walpin, having discussions “in which she made the case for Johnson and the school he ran in Sacramento” and described Johnson as “a good guy.” Washington City Paper
Rokdrop.com

The Sex Scandal was pertinent to Walpin's investigation. Walpin referred the financial misconduct and the sexual misconduct to the U.S. Attorney for prosecution:

The final four pages of the criminal referral discussed three instances of alleged inappropriate actions by Johnson involving a minor, who had reported she was fondled, and two young volunteers, who reported that Johnson went to their apartment and climbed into bed with one of them. The criminal referral notes that the two educators who reported the allegations left the charter school upset with the way the complaints had been handled.
Rokdrop.com

You can actually read their redacted accounts from the report at the link. Here is some of what the women reported happened to them:

After, as [REDACTED] put it, she “got the courage to tell… my supervisors,” she reported the incident, which, she was informed, was communicated to St. HOPE Academy’s Human Resources Department and the Chief Financial Officer. The night after [REDACTED] made her report, Mr. Johnson approached her and apologized. Subsequently, Kevin Hiestand, Johnson’s personal attorney, met with [REDACTED], described himself only “as a friend of Johnson,” and “basically asked me to keep quiet.” Also, about one week after this incident, when [REDACTED] told Mr. Johnson she was going to quit because of financial and family reasons, Mr. Johnson “offered to give me $1,000 a month until the end of the program,” stating that it would be confidential “between him and I.” As [REDACTED] related that conversation, Mr. Johnson “said all he needed was my savings account number,” he would make the deposit and “no one needed to know about it.” [REDACTED] did not accept this offer by giving Mr. Johnson her account number.
Rokdrop.com

Until that elementary school level of debate skills sinks in, keep it up with your repeated public forum displays of failure. We're all getting a kick out of watching you squirm.

As usual you think you know something when you don't. :rolleyes:

You're making this too easy.

First off, did you notice this paragraph taken from Rokdrop.com:
This website has been online since June 2004 providing news and analysis from the Land of the Morning Calm. Note that all though this site is operated by an active duty military servicemember it is a site that features the personal opinions of the authors that contribute here.

That's right, troll... another OPINON BLOG. We've been through this before and you still haven't learned. OPINION is not fact. Seriously, do you actually check the "About" pages of the sites that you source to find out just how relevant or valid the information is, or do you only conduct Google searches with the criteria, "Get that damn Socialist Kenyan out of the White House"? Don't bother dreaming up a lie, we already know your intentions on the Politics forums. :rolleyes:

Here's some actual NEWS regarding this so-called "scandal".

According to an article posted on Politicker.com in May '08, Sacremento Police Chief Rick Braziel defended statements he made regarding the accusations of sexual misconduct by Kevin Johnson. He stated that no crime occurred and the investigation was closed. This was also supported by Kevin Mickelson, the president of the Sacramento County Deputy Sheriffs’ Association who is on record for asking Johnson serious questions about the allegations before giving him his political endorsement. Another local newspaper in the area called the Sacremento Bee documented the allegations back in 2007 when the story broke. Officials from the paper state that the girl who made the claim was upset at some behavior going on at the high school; in public, Johnson apparently consoled her with his hand on her shoulders but that was the extent of the contact.

Besides these reports, you seem to selectively forget that the accuser recanted her statement. So whatever lip-service someone from an overseas opinion blog speculates on about the subject matter is IRRELEVANT. End of story.

Your record is now zero and infinity on this thread. Quit now.

Ah, I so enjoy watching idiots get owned. Seeing Trinity come back and declare victory when she's just had her teeth kicked in is about as funny as Monty Python and the Holy Grail, when the evil knight has his limbs all hacked off and declares "It's just a flesh wound!"

Please, Trinity, keep posting. Whenever I am really bored, watching your feeble arguments be drawn and quartered is almost the highlight of my day.

Nope. Once again you are just incapable of comprehending what you read.

That's right, troll... another OPINON BLOG. We've been through this before and you still haven't learned. OPINION is not fact.

The facts of this article are presented as a news article not opinion and cited from other news articles from the Washington Examiner, LA Times and Washington City Paper. In fact, direct quotes are prevalent and citations from the actual federal reports are presented in the article.

You have no basis to challenge this article but reach all you want. :rolleyes: You only attempt to discredit the facts presented because know you that you've been shown to be ridiculous on all your points.

Officials from the paper state that the girl who made the claim was upset at some behavior going on at the high school; in public, Johnson apparently consoled her with his hand on her shoulders but that was the extent of the contact.

The victims reported that they were intimidated and allegedly bribed. Police cases frequently don't proceed if the victim for whatever reason does not proceed. As previously stated, this is what really happened:

After, as [REDACTED] put it, she “got the courage to tell… my supervisors,” she reported the incident, which, she was informed, was communicated to St. HOPE Academy’s Human Resources Department and the Chief Financial Officer.

This is from the criminal referral report and is the recount of the victim. All other information presented was backed up from the Washington Examiner and the LA Times. Read Vinyl :rolleyes: but I know you don't understand what you read.

Besides these reports, you seem to selectively forget that the accuser recanted her statement. So whatever lip-service someone from an overseas opinion blog speculates on about the subject matter is IRRELEVANT. End of story.

Nope. Not the end of the story...as usual:

It was disclosed that a female student at St. Hope had told a teacher that Johnson had inappropriately touched her. Rather than school officials reporting the alleged incident directly to police, Johnson's attorney interviewed the girl, who then recanted.
The teacher soon resigned, saying in his resignation letter that "St. Hope sought to intimidate the student through an illegal interrogation and even had the audacity to ask me to change my story."
At about the same time, it was discovered that Johnson had been accused in a similar incident in Arizona in the late 1990s. In that case, Johnson reached a $230,000 settlement.

You arguing with VB is about like watching him screw you in the ass. If you'd just relax and stop struggling it would hurt less. The lack of squeals would make it less entertaining for us viewers at home, however, so feel free to carry on.:popcorn:

The two of you obviously share a brain with half a marble. Your filthy rape analogy was unwarranted and sick. When you can't keep up in a discussion that is what you resort to.

I didn't say it was rape, you do seem to be enjoying it. Or so I gather from the fact that you keep coming back. But I'll make a deal with you: no deflections back to me, and I'll avoid commenting on the relative lack of lubri.... er.... mercy in your verbal smackdown. Deal?

As usual you think you know something when you don't. :rolleyes:

Thankfully, the GOP knows all:

But Republican investigators concluded that the key motive behind the firing was unhappiness with Walpin's aggressive investigation of misuse of AmeriCorps funds by Kevin Johnson, the mayor of Sacramento, California who is a prominent political ally of President Obama.

Case closed. :rolleyes:

I can't believe that I just read an entire Washington Examiner article. I feel so dirty now.

In 2006, the city of Alexandria, VA had to propose a "Do Not Deliver" request for this worthless neocon rag. I almost wish that The Holy It would go back to quoting WND. Almost.

The White House can't get it's story straight, were caught in a bold face lie and yet you attempt to discredit a Republican report of an investigation headed by Issa into the matter when the Inspector General was cleared of all wrong doing and Obama and his cronies let an alleged sexual predator who struck before and paid the victim off and admitted to misusing taxpayer stimulus funds, go scott free for political reasons and fired a man protecting the interests of the American people.

Not surprising when you think Obama is a civil rights hero. :rolleyes:

I'll repeat this again because we all know you don't know how to fuckin' read.
No charges were made, the accuser recanted her story and the case was CLOSED. Just like your obsession with birth certificates, you WISH that this was getting more attention.

You can sit here and try to make this the center of your obsession, but anyone with a brain KNOWS this is not the case. It's amazing how you can be so hypocritical to accept the fact Walpin was "cleared" from his actions but aren't willing to do it with Johnson. Could it be you think Johnson is a Socialist Kenyan as well? And that's putting it nicely.

Like I stated before, the more we dig into the specifics, the more you start looking like an ass. When you're ready to talk about AmeriCorps, the federal funding to St. Hope Academy or any of the real issues surrounding Walpin's termination let me know. Right now, you're obsessing over a non sequitur, National Enquirer style argument that only plucks the emotional strings of the moronic, as if Walpin was acting purely on his morals and good conscious when he conducted his investigation... in the same way you like to pretend you are doing the same thing on the birther thread. Coincidence? Probably not, you pathetic one trick pony.

Now, do what you always do when someone discredits your beliefs by writing another one of your bullshit "You don't understand the point" posts and embarrass yourself even further. It's almost as if I have you trained like Pavlov's dog and you don't even know it.

The two of you obviously share a brain with half a marble.

That's still a LOT more substance than what you have in your head... or between your legs. :rolleyes:

You arguing with VB is about like watching him screw you in the ass....

... with a big, rubber dildo with the word OBAMA engraved on it. :biggrin:
Come now, you don't think I'd actually fuck this... this... thing? If I ever decided to sleep with a woman again, it most certainly wouldn't be with someone who is so deplorable and deceitful.

Apologies to all for the horrid sexual visuals now implanted in your minds. :redface: :wink:

This garbage from someone who states he was sexual abused? Very sad. Even knowing that the impoverished and at risk youth victims stated in federal documents that they were sexually abused, intimidated and bribed, two teachers back up their stories and quit the school for how the sexual crimes were handled -one teacher stating he was asked to change his story, and Kevin Johnson had another sexual abuse case where he settled for several hundred thousand dollars you restate that?

Could it be you think Johnson is a Socialist Kenyan as well? And that's putting it nicely.

The facts of the case demonstrate where the truth lies...and there is no hypocrisy in recognizing that Kevin Johnson, his fiancee' Rhee and Obama and his cronies were all wrong on this matter including on Walpin's firing.

Like I stated before, the more we dig into the specifics, the more you start looking like an ass.

Actually, that's you Vinyl.

When you're ready to talk about AmeriCorps, the federal funding to St. Hope Academy or any of the real issues surrounding Walpin's termination let me know.

LOL. You really are intellectually challenged. :rolleyes: We are talking about the federal funding to St. Hope Academy and AmeriCorps. This is just how seedy Johnson ran his program. In addition to misusing Stimulus funds Johnson allegedly abused youths in the program. That's not going to be ignored. Rhee's involvement in a cover up won't be ignored. The White House changing their story and telling bold face lies won't be ignored. And the firing of an Inspector General for doing his job won't be ignored in order for Obama to help a supporter and avoid the truth of Stimulus misuse from coming out.

This garbage from someone who states he was sexual abused? Very sad.

So, are you saying I'm supposed to overreact and obsess over every single time a so-called sex scandal emerges? You would rather I hold onto some kind of spirit reducing, prejudicial grudge over anyone accused for sexual deviancy because of my own misfortunes as a child? Seriously, fuck you. How typical of the paranoid, polarizing bigot to even suggest how I should think on that matter.

My past experiences, good and bad, makes me a more aware and stronger person. It also makes me aware that judging people as a group doesn't get anything accomplished. I treat every case and every incident on an INDIVIDUAL basis. Alas, I'm sure you would love it if I was as emotionally weak as you, but unlike you I honestly don't give a fuck where some people could be placing their dicks when nobody is watching.

If any of these cases has any merit, neither of the accused would have settled out or court or recanted their stories. I know when I was a victim, the last thing that went through my mind was settling out of court or trying to receive a 6-figure settlement. Then again, I am talking to a proven, bigoted birther so I wouldn't expect you to understand such things. In both scenarios, there were no charges made and the cases were closed. Because of that, all of the details and speculating about them are IRRELEVANT. All you're doing now is desperately trying to pry them back open to support your phony cries of innocence for Walpin, because the other option would be looking at his actions surrounding the cutting of federal money to educational programs.

In short... stop blowing smoke up people's asses. :rolleyes:

Even knowing that the impoverished and at risk youth victims stated in federal documents that they were sexually abused, intimidated and bribed, two teachers back up their stories and quit the school for how the sexual crimes were handled -one teacher stating he was asked to change his story, and Kevin Johnson had another sexual abuse case where he settled for several hundred thousand dollars you restate that?

More irrelevant, speculative bullshit. When you're done with the fake-ass tears of injustice, let me know. :rolleyes:

The facts of the case demonstrate where the truth lies...and there is no hypocrisy in recognizing that Kevin Johnson, his fiancee' Rhee and Obama and his cronies were all wrong on this matter including on Walpin's firing.

So sayeth the bigoted forum troll, so sayeth the flock of birthers. :rolleyes:

LOL. You really are intellectually challenged. :rolleyes:

Sit, Ubu sit... good dog! :rolleyes:

We are talking about the federal funding to St. Hope Academy and AmeriCorps.

No you're not. :rolleyes:

This is just how seedy Johnson ran his program. In addition to misusing Stimulus funds

Which I already exposed was going to an education program sponsored by CUNY two pages ago. But as I stated before, we all know you can't fuckin' read so you're once again excused.

Johnson allegedly abused youths in the program.

More irrelevant, speculative bullshit.
BTW, his last name is "Johnson", not "Jackson". :rolleyes:

That's not going to be ignored. Rhee's involvement in a cover up won't be ignored.

It already has been ignored by the general public.

The White House changing their story and telling bold face lies won't be ignored.

Yeah, just like Birthergate... right? :rolleyes:

And the firing of an Inspector General for doing his job won't be ignored in order for Obama to help a supporter and avoid the truth of Stimulus misuse from coming out.

That's right, Trannity... keep beating your chest in a perpetual bout of phony outrage over another bullshit political story that affects NOBODY, in your persistent, yet fruitless struggle to bring down Obama. Really, we have no problems laughing at you for another 7 years. Go for it! Even if this gets to 60+ pages like your trifling birther thread, we're still going to have the man you hate in the White House... and you'll still be a pathetic, polarizing bigot.

Advantage - The "Libtards". :rolleyes:

You attempted to defend Obama on this and failed miserably. Your sad little attempt at research fell lame because Kevin Johnson's mess only brings Obama further down. The sex scandal with Rhee's involvement in a cover up only demonstrates just how seedy this person is and how much those youths in that program needed an Inspector General looking out for them like Walpin.

Instead of correcting this terrible mistake - the firing of Walpin- the Obama Administration is behaving hideously. The firing, refusal to prosecute on misuse of Federal funds, slap on the wrist for Johnson and undeserved measures taken by Obama Appointees to clear Johnson because he was an Obama supporter already defined political misconduct...but the changing of the stories and outright lies are truly daunting and disturbing on behalf of the Obama White House.

You are a moron.
The only time I ever referred to Obama in my research was to state that he and Kevin Johnson were allies, and to create some humorous zingers to further illustrate your phobia of having a "Socialist" in the White House. Perhaps if you knew how to fuckin' read, you would have been able to process that. Alas, I know every time you see one of my sentences the only thing that seems to register in your mind is...

Trinity's Brain said:
Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal! Obama Lover! Attack!! Liberal!

If it was GWB's ...this board woulda gone apeshit. Take it to the funking ban'k.

Funny you'd mention that, because Andrew Perez, author of the (admittedly slanted) site thenewargument.com noted in the below article the following:

"Luise S. Jordan served as the IG at the CNCS from 1994 until 2002, when she was “quietly forced out” by the Bush administration:
According to Luise S. Jordan, the IG at the Corporation for National and Community Service since 1994, she was summoned to a meeting with Ed Moy, an associate director in the presidential personnel office.
“I was told I had done a good job. I was complimented on the achievements of my office, but the second paragraph, after all these compliments and making it clear this was not a dismissal for cause, was that the corporation had decided to get a new IG,” Jordan recalled.
Congressional Republicans have accepted in the recent past that IG’s can be terminated for literally any reason, and now they charge that a Democratic administration is playing politics for firing an IG for entirely substantive reasons."

(see link Ending the Walpin Firing ‘Debate’ - The New Argument for the entire editorial.)

Thanks for posting news stories that most people wouldn't for fear of being hated and jeered at, Trinity. It's good to have people yelling on both sides, otherwise this board is PURELY masturbatory. (like so many other boards on lpsg :tongue:)

T'wouldn't be so pathetic if not from the standpoint of so obvious a personal vendetta she [he,they,it] has for the President (and I say "the President" instead of Obama quite deliberately here as it is undoubtedly a reality that will forever stick in her craw).

Mister B., having only joined this year would perhaps not know that the o.p. was allegedly a Democratic supporter, but only of Hillary Clinton, apparently. The subsequent nomination of Obama resulted in a tirade of mischaracterizations and venom to the point that she...they preferred supporting a candidate and a party that had little or nothing to offer to one of her alleged "loyalties".

Which causes me to wonder what is the point to all of what she's offered since. Certainly this person doesn't think that the discrediting of Obama will somehow result in a Hillary Clinton nomination come next election, or the party nomination of someone other than the incumbent. Obama's failure can only result in a Republican presidency.

And if that's fine with her (and those like her) then I figure she couldn't have ever really been a Hillary supporter in the first place.

There were no substantive reasons for Walpin's firing...at least no substantive reasons that the Obama Administration could get straight and have their stuff together on the matter to avoid getting their hands filthy in the seedy cover up of alleged Sexual Abuse of youths, admitted blantant misuse of Taxpayer Stimulus Funds, mismanagement of Americorps programs, cronyism for campaign supporters and feindish political game playing in the Chicago way.

Now...if only Jordan's dismissal somehow diminished the the misconduct of Kevin Johnson with the Americorp program or the his actions with those youths. If only Jordan's dismissal somehow excused the Obama White House from bold face lying and firing Walpin for actually doing his job.

That was a weak move for Obama and his supporters to reach with that Jordan lame dismissal as if it would neutralize the mess that is Kevin Johnson's and Rhee's fiascal and Obama's White House's continued bad behavior and poor decision making.

One more time, instead of doing the right thing...Obama proves more and more he isn't the man he claimed to be.

Below 50% Approval...people are realizing it day by day.

Mister B., having only joined this year would perhaps not know that the o.p. was allegedly a Democratic supporter, but only of Hillary Clinton, apparently. The subsequent nomination of Obama resulted in a tirade of mischaracterizations and venom to the point that she...they preferred supporting a candidate and a party that had little or nothing to offer to one of her alleged "loyalties".

And that's putting it nicely.
Being that I was one of the other Hillary supporters on this board, I was also somewhat critical on Obama during the primary and at moments even sided with the "entity" on some arguments. Of course, once Hillary lost (as b.c. said), the "entity" has done nothing but spew a long series of fact distorting hate threads against anything that remotely shows Obama in a positive light. Eighteen months later, and nothing has changed.

Which causes me to wonder what is the point to all of what she's offered since. Certainly this person doesn't think that the discrediting of Obama will somehow result in a Hillary Clinton nomination come next election, or the party nomination of someone other than the incumbent. Obama's failure can only result in a Republican presidency.

It's pretty apparent that the "entity" is desperately clinging to staying anonymous. That way, it can deny whatever affiliation or title you lob at its general direction. It never unveiled who it voted for in the actual election, while condemning other Democrats on this board who didn't jump ship once Clinton lost the nomination and praised Sarah Palin as if she was the second coming of Christ. It has started more anti-Obama threads than any other person on LPSG. Many of the outside sources the "entity" used to echo her disdain for the current administration ranged from a variety of conservative & neocon blogs, heavily politically slanted news periodicals... even some known white supremacists sites.

On the surface, it may seem as if the Politics boards is an extension of the Hatfields and the McCoys... at least, that is what people on the fringe (like the "entity") would like for you to believe. In reality, there's a major grey area where most people dwell. Even I, one of the most hated "libtards" on this board by various other unknown "entities" on this board, linger somewhere in the middle on certain issues, although I'm driven by my strong convictions for civil rights. That keeps me leaning more to the left than anything else. Alas, if the "entity" had its way with passing out labels, I'd be another one of those "blind Obama apologists". But I digress...

I sincerely hope that nobody here falls for the facade the "entity" portrays around here. Even though it may type in a tone that seems so aware and respectful, the more you analyze its overall actions you'd see that its overall motivation is absolutely vile. Something this dishonest deserves all of the scrutiny, chastising and scorn it gets from people around here.
