Memo to Marc Boldt and Steve "Unmarked Bills" Stuart.

.
Dear Marc and Steve,

It has come to my attention that you, Mr. Stuart, seem to be rather unhappy about my blog posts concerning you.

And it has come to my attention that you, Mr. Boldt, feel compelled to threaten others in an effort to control me.

Well, this is my response to that.

I don't give a damn that what I write makes you unhappy, Mr. Stuart. And I don't fricking threaten, Mr. Boldt.

Either one of you have a problem with me? Then do what you have to do. Either one of you think that I am controlled? Then you've got a f&*king screw loose. Either of you have a problem with me?

Then grow enough testicles to contact me directly. But don't you dare threaten anyone I know in an effort to silence me.

When it comes to what I write, there is really, at base, only one question: am I telling the truth when I write?

Take Mr. Boldt, who is my brother in law.

The Marc Boldt of today bears only a passing resemblance to the courageous conservative legislator who would cheerfully tilt at windmills every hour on the hour when he felt the cause was just or the principle was right.

Now, Marc just does what Stuart tells him to do. And that's why Marc lied to me about holding an advisory vote on this horrific loot rail/bridge replacement project this November.

Marc portrays himself as a Republican. Yet, he endorses Steve "Plain Envelope" Stuart for election... again.

Did I mention that Stuart is a democrat?

By endorsing Stuart, Boldt is endorsing everything Stuart stands for, including bridge tolls for 65,000 people. He's endorsing the corruption that Boldt himself told me about the August before Stuart's first election.

Stuart, on the other hand, apparently hates it that I point out that he was the beneficiary of $100,000 in cold, hard cash from tribal casino developer David Barnett when it was laundered through Progressive Majority. Stuart isn't thrilled that I remind the world that he scammed a deal with Craig Pridemore during session a few years back that allowed Stuart to keep some $60,000 in campaign contributions by pushing the application of legislative donation limits, in place now for Clark County, to another year... and another election.

Stuart isn't particularly fond of my frequent reminders that he was a major part of Tim "The Liar" Leavitt's campaign... which explains both the bogus, lying strategy that fooled people into believing that Leavitt opposed tolls and the fact that having used it to get elected, he could then flip, counting on a short attention span by the voters.

So what does Marc do? Marc calls another candidate, and warns them that Steve "Check, please!" Stuart might "get involved" in that candidate's campaign, both as if it would make any difference and as if that person actually controlled what I write or when or how I wrote it.

Please remember as you read this that while Marc Boldt has TOLD people he's "talked to" me about my blog, he has NEVER discussed it with me, EVER. So, when he's told Jamie Herrera, who would have been no where without Boldt's "help", that he's "talked to him" about the blog, that is a flat out lie.

In fact, when he talks to ANYONE about "talking" to me about this or any other blog, he is lying about that.

Well, here's the deal.

I spent 6 years overseas in defense of my country in part so I could do this very thing.

I wore the uniform for 14 years total, in all components, so I could, in part, do this very thing.

The question is this:

Do I cede to Marc Boldt or Steve Stuart any ability to censor me or silence me? Do I run away because these people, or anyone else, is mad at me?

Do I?

Hell no, I don't. And there is much more to come.

If any of you don't like what I have to say, then the simple solution is to avoid reading it.

But don't even think about threatening those around me, ESPECIALLY when you lack the balls to confront me directly.

And an additional memo to Ann Rivers: don't even think about trying to control what, when or who I write about. And to those who think you can control me by attacking her?

Well, we saw how well that worked with Herrera's winged monkeys like Keath Huff, didn't we?
