RAB: Bill Todd's campaign can't be trusted about "Pay to Say" scandal (and then admits he consulted for the campaign)


modernesquire - Posted on 14 June 2007

Matt Naugle blows a gasket and says that Bill Todd's campaign doesn't know what it was saying in admitting that Naugle was a consultant early in the campaign.  From both sides of Naugle's mouth:

" I think it is quite difficult to consider me a former consultant for the Todd campaign. A Todd campaign employee may have said otherwise when he was illegally recorded by BSB, but all I really did was sit in on a couple of meetings. I have never met that campaign employee, and he probably had no idea what I did or didn't do for the campaign."

Does anyone believe that Naugle can sit through a campaign meeting and not say a word?  Hey, Matty, you know what you call a political operative who attends strategy meetings of a campaign?  That's right, a consultant.  And I wonder if the rest of the conservative blogsphere thinks it's completely irrelevant that you've turned RAB into a Todd astroturf blog just like you did for Blackwell given your early relationship with that campaign.  I bet they don't.

"All I really did was sit in on a couple of meetings."  Isn't that like the verbatim defense used in the Iran-Contra scandal?

Naugle also thinks he could do more to defeat Coleman at RAB.  So, there you have it, he made the conscious decision not to go official with the campaign, but instead use RAB as the mouthpiece for the Todd campaign.  And I think it's just adorable how you really think Bill Todd has a snowball's chance in hell.  It's almost as charming as your hero worshipping of Ken Blackwell as the GOP's next great candidate (again?)

Then there's this nugget:

 BSB may never cry to their readers about the Patriot Act and wire taps without being total hypocrites. Nor can the Ohio Democrat Party oppose wire taps of terrorists, but support wire taps of campaign employees.

Naugle, god, I'm so sick of explaining simple definitions to you.  There's a huge difference between a warrantless government wiretap when neither party knows is being listened to or recorded and a perfectly legal recording of a telephone conference when one of the parties is knowledgeable and consents to the recording.  Linda Tripp ring a bell?  And, of course, Naugle forgets that the reverse of his argument applied against him is equally as (in)valid.

And, the new Naugle classic:

"RAB isn't radical."

This from the same RAB administrator who has claimed that having sex or physically abusing your own pet should be your constitutionally protected property right, Jim Crow and discrimination laws should be declared an unconstitutional infringement of private property rights, the 13th and 14th Amendments be damned, and of course, voting rights should be tied to wealth with the more affluent members of society have more voting power than poor people. 

And, of course, when you have people like Scott Pullins applaud your ethics, get the freakin' hint.

Matty, you still haven't responded to one key allegation from us.  Did you, or did you not, post on RAB as "jamesrhodes" during the Blackwell campaign?  How hard is that?  Of course, if you can't see yourself as a consultant despite shooting video and sitting in on meetings for a campaign, maybe that question seems like quantum physics to you.

"when you have people like Scott Pullins applaud your ethics, get the freakin' hint." classic!

I invite the Republican party to bring civil or criminal charges against me. They'll lose, and it would be great PR for the blog! Otherwise, shut the hell up. BTW, I don't think RAB got their copy of the talking points from the Todd campaign this week.
Matt apparently missed that meeting.

I didn't realize that I'm supposed to respond to every "key" allegation you have against me.

Even though I'm amused by Gov. Rhodes' proposal to build a bridge across Lake Erie, I was not "jamesrhodes." I didn't meet jamesrhodes until January, and he is a sharp young man. He, just like some of the bloggers from the former rightangleblog.blogspot.com, got burned out from posting daily. But he, just like most of the SOB Alliance, has access to post on the front of RAB whenever they wish.

He got burned out three days before you started blogging under your real name. Real convenient.
He was going to keep blogging until I jumped in.

Take your pick.

 

a. In the lake.

b. In bed with him.

c. a car and drove off.

OK.......
http://www.rightangleblog.com/story/the_most_awkward_evening_in_bexley Talks crap about people and then doesn't have the sand to do it face to face... What a joke of a man. Seriously, I have so little respect for him as a person, he sickens me. If you're going to trash people, and their wives, at least have the balls to introduce yourself, instead of cowering and stuffing your face. What an utter shell of a person. He's obviously willing to talk crap when he has a golf club in his hand. And then he throws a comment about him throwing a punch. Good lord, what an angry person.
