Another Gloria Allred Circus in Kalifornia

Gloria Allred-Attorney to women who don't need attorneys

It's a good thing I decided to keep my (slightly touched up ) photo of Gloria Allred in my computer's picture gallery. I knew I'd need it sooner or later. As if everything else wasn't crazy enough in California, now here comes LA's most notorious ambulance chaser, celebrity lawyer and attorney to women who don't need lawyers, Gloria Allred.

Today, Allred held another one of her famous press conference's this time to insert herself in our already ridiculous governor's race between "Run-Down" Jerry Brown and Meg Whitman. Today, Gloria introduced the world to one Nicki Diaz Santillon, who claims she worked as a nanny for Whitman and her husband, Dr Griffith Rutherford Harsh IV..........


...for nine years.

Santillon, who is, in Allred's words, "an undocumented worker", reportedly was fired in 2009 when Whitman announced she was running for governor of California (Whitman, not Santillon). Santillon alleges that she was hired to work for the family though an employment agency and was paid $23 an hour for a 15-hour work week. She alleges that she had to work extra hours for no pay doing things like dropping off Dr Griffith Rutherford Harsh IV....


....at the airport.

She also alleges that on at least one occasion, Whitman received a letter from the Social Security Administration notifying her that the social security number Santillon had supplied did not match. Allegedly, Whitman told Santillon to check into it and took no further action until 2009 when she was fired.


Allred, as usual, pulled out all the stops in describing Santillon as a victim of exploitation by Whitman and Dr Griffith Rutherford Harsh IV....


....She used phrases like "Don't ask, don't tell" in referring to Whitman. Of course, Gloria downplayed the fact that her client was not only in the country illegally but was also using a false social security card.



But hey! It's even more ridiculous if you read Allred's full statement.

(TMZ)

(It was a nightmare, but she stayed for 9 years.)

Whitman responded to the charges by saying that it is all......









Why is it that Allred has the need to insert herself into every controversy that comes down the pike? You talk about self-promotion.


"Ya talk about chickensh--!"


So add this saga to the on-going circus that is California, a state in which they can't execute killers because it might hurt and the lethal chemicals have an expiration date.  The question is who will save us. What this state needs is a super-hero as governor.

Oh yeah. We've done that, haven't we?

Well, maybe we just didn't choose the right super-hero. Who can rescue us from 4-8 years of "Run-Down" Jerry Brown or Meg Whitman, not to mention never-ending press conferences by Gloria Allred? I nominate my favorite superhero......

Captain Dick.

That's right. Captain Dick.  And don't laugh. It can't get any more ridiculous here in Kalifornia.

The obvious solution: Elect Santillon as governor. She can't do any worse than the pair of odd ducks currently competing for it. Allred has a great future with the Tea Party.

Boxer once had a few illegals on her staff. A housekeeper and gardener I do believe.

She who is without stone.....

Siarlys Jenkins said...

"I do believe" doesn't cut it Findalis, not coming from someone with as vivid an imagination as you have displayed.

I wouldn't doubt that Boxer may have done exactly that... but I'd want to see some details before I credit the report. What were the housekeeper and gardener's names?

Gary Fouse said...

Siarlys,

Allred is a liberal Democrat and past contributor to Jerry Brown.

Sorry.

Siarlys Jenkins said...

I fail to see the slightest significance to this information. It certainly doesn't get Findalis off the hook for supplying precise data. It doesn't refute my proposal to elect Santillon as governor. And I'm not sure what else you might mean to be establishing by mentioning the obvious.

Findalis said...

Boxer in her first campaign had the revelation of her hired help revealed.

She had used an employment agency who should have clarified their status.

She still was responsible.

Siarlys Jenkins said...

Names? Dates? Even a headline and the paper it appeared in?

Findalis, do you remember when Richard Nixon announced that he was cancelling the Apollo mission, because it turns out the moon IS made of green cheese after all? Oh, it turned out the astronomer has the spectroscope misaligned, and the mission went off as planned.

Like I said, you could be right, but it would be awfully easy to make it up too. So, details?

Lance Christian Johnson said...

Siarlys, this might very well be what I refer to as a "Findalis Fact". Those are facts that are in fact not facts.

Findalis said...

I remember Nixon resigning for Watergate. Do you. Boxer's troubles were brought to light in the 1990s. But were documented by the LA Times for one. I was living in S. California at the time and thought of it as a bunch of BS. Then as now.

Siarlys Jenkins said...

Yes, as a matter of fact, I do remember Nixon resigning after Watergate. Did you wear mourning for a year after that blessed event? I remember trying to get hold of one of those 1968 campaign buttons "Nixon Now." For some reason, in 1973 no Republican would cough one up for me.

Findalis said...

I was a crazed moonbat liberal then. Thought Nixon was the devil himself (Was off on that. Kissinger is the devil.). Had one of those buttons. My Dad voted for Nixon twice (Mom was a Democrat.). Wish I had it now. In good to mint condition it is worth quite a bit.
