Heimlich offered his buddy Chesley $15M+ to settle this last year. Good thing the Plaintiffs said no, and Portune was able to cut the price in half.

Another case of Democrats having to clean up disgusting Republican messes.

I agree - good to have thoughtful, reasoned people you can trust on the BOCC - treating people like human beings actually pays off - good for the plaintiffs (they deserve so much more, thanks guys), good for the BOCC and good for the taxpayers.
My question is, when is Parrot going to be held accountable for dereliction of duties and his bonding company pay for his failure to perform his public duties - isn't that what the bond is for?

And hats off to the judges this week - a real sense of justice and righteousness running through the courts - Burlew telling off the NFL and Ruehlman telling off Brinkman and DIRTY DEEDS DETERS (Geez, he's got to go)

Republicans don't vote for Democrats.Democrats saving money is a fluke rarity.How about how the city caved in to the riot lawsuits? And the hefty reward that Democrat Clinton Appointee Dlott paid out to attorney Ken Lawson? Most likely that payday bonus went up his nose.Your "had enough..." is a bumpersticker and not a serious option.Democrats don't represent my values and never will.Sorry but saving taxpayers some $$$ won't sway me.I can't support a party that nationally won't support it's own country and would rather see it fail.

PATHETIC HYPOCRITES !

HAD ENOUGH, VOTE DEMOCRAT 2007 !

When is this Right-Wing rag going to comment on the Repugnicant Congressman who thought he was too good to wait for his bags, unlike the average American he and his party are always trampling on?

Even Faux News has you clowns beat (I refuse to link to the right-wing hate sites)

"WASHINGTON — California Rep. Bob Filner was facing charges Monday for allegedly assaulting an airline worker at Dulles International Airport after becoming upset that his luggage had not arrived at a baggage carousel.

Filner, 64, is slated to appear in Loudoun County, Va., General District Court on Oct. 2. Court officials could not say whether the San Diego Democrat had been served the summons yet to show up on that date.

According to law enforcement officials, Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority police were called to the United Airlines baggage claim office at about 6 p.m. Sunday evening for a report of an incident with a passenger regarding his baggage.

"The individual allegedly attempted to enter an area authorized for airline employees only, pushed aside the employees outstretched arm and refused to leave the area when asked by an airline employee," according to airport police.

"When MWAA officers arrived a few minutes later, the man had left the office and was waiting in the area of a bag carousel. Officers interviewed him and witnesses and released him. Before the individual left the airport, officers advised him that the airline employee would be pursuing charges," the police statement reads.

The statement says the airport worker filed assault and battery charges, a class 1 misdemeanor.

Filner is on his way to Iraq to see the troops, his office said in a statement late Monday, and will have a full statement when he returns.

"Suffice it to say now, that the story that has appeared in the press is factually incorrect and the charges are ridiculous," the statement reads.

A source familiar with the incident told FOX News that when Filner's luggage didn’t show up in the claim area fast enough, he allegedly stormed into the United baggage office and insisted on knowing where his bag was. The agent was working with another customer and told him to wait.

The source alleged that Filner refused to step back and when the worker told him to leave the office, he said, “You can’t stop me.” She replied: "No, but the police can.”

Filner allegedly pushed aside the agent's outstretched arm and proceeded into an area off-limits to customers, where another agent was on the line with police. The agent could be heard from the back room telling him, “You have to go.”

He supposedly responded: “I’m not going until I get my bag. You’re treating us like animals.”
