I take my marriage vows and my obligations as an officer of the court seriously--they are what I am. That those vows and/or oaths have been tweaked for personal engrandisement or empowerment by Ramos is just plain wrong.

And, even if you step back as a casual observer, Ristow is just not a credible claimant. the phone records are good, but the office staff that will claim she was a (in Uffer's terms) Road Warrior, 5%'er, etc, makes this case even more flimsy. Would be nice to see if the others he used were equally harassed or benefited from the affairs. There is no such thing as the lawyers association.

A slap on the hand for Mikey??? Let's hope the BOS will move forward with Ramos in the same manner they did Postmus. Some will disagree, but Ramos is far more dangerous with his power than Postmus ever was. POWER to arrest and prosecute??? I think more than a couple BOS members are very tired of Ramos and anyone like him. WE will see of course. I believe it has gone way beyond politics, Ramos has become a monster. It is clear Ramos has done everything unethical he can to intimidate certain members of the BOS. Ramos is pretty much a feral dog snapping at anything he can to make this go away. I think the Lawyers Association and many other support groups for Ramos are sitting back watching, waiting to see the outcome of this report, AS THEY should. We are all adults, we have seen time and time again once the heat get's to hot for someone, even the most loyal followers will walk away. Except a few stupid ones we have mentioned before.

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 01:33:33 +0000 http://inlandpolitics.com/blog/?p=1504#comment-135 The Lawyers Association? What is that? Ramos isn't a lawyer anymore, he is a politician. That means he can lie, cheat, mismanage, and appropriate 'till the cows come home. The only way to get him out is by voting him out ore having him removed from office for a serious breech of ethics. But as we have seen with so many politicians today, the bar for ethical behavior has been seriously altered. This new tidbit is not gonna be enough to bring Mikey down. And even if Ristow could win her case, the County will pay a settlement, and Mikey will get a hand slapped. ACU mentioned the Ramos support network. They have to abandon him, and the voters have to send him packing. Not seeing anything to push him out in this report. The Lawyers Association? What is that?

It is not just the ones above but Jerry Lewis, Dennis Hansberger, Ruth Stringer, Mark Uffer to mane just a few. If they don't renounce their support now then they are no better than he is. Why hasn't the Lawyers Association done something about this? Is it OK as long as it's hidden from the voters? This is a chance for the County to put this in the past and move on. Is Derry the only one with enough courage to do the right thing? We shall see. There have been a lot of people who have known Ramos’ dirty little secrets and chose to ignore them.

Ah yes, birds of a feather flock together. Don't you just love it when a plan comes together. The mafia is being exposed slowly but surely. Nothing like the Chief Law Enforcement Officer in the County being a liar and a cheat, and those named above being his buddies and supporters. Ramos will never have any credibility in anything his says or does, cause he can now be proven as a liar, a GREATER liar than those he has harrassed and tried to prosecute. It also shows how stupid Josie Gonzalez and Paul Biane were for being stupid and ignoring the obvious by openly supporting this clown of a District Attorney. Time to eat a little crow Josie and Paul.

He lied about Grover Merritt and he lied about the law enforcment Badges and ID cards he sold for campaign contributions. It sounds like three strikes to me. Why is it so surprising that he lied.

This report is being called "devastating" in his own hometown, I would call it instant karma.
