The Red Coats at the “Meg County Blog” better take cover!
Aaron F. Park, who used to blog at Red County as “Sgt. York,” is coming to the Orange Juice blog!
Park is the 4 term California Republican Assembly Sgt. at Arms. He has served on the Placer County Republican Central Committee. Park is well-known for hard-hitting blogging and campaign warfare for conservative candidates and causes.
Park was railroaded by Red County editor Chip Hanlon for backing Republican Steve Poizner, while being paid by a Poizner consultant to help his campaign. These charges looked quite silly when we broke the news that Hanlon got paid $20,000 by Poizner’s weird opponent, Meg Whitman, ostensibly for ads. That looked really odd when the news broke that other advertisers pay a lot less to be seen on Red County, which according to NBC is a blog with a “limited readership.”
I have invited Park to cross-post his work here at the Orange Juice and he will likely post original commentary as well. Park lives up north and I expect he will greatly add to our coverage of California politics.
Welcome aboard Sgt. York! Go get em!
Cool. I am good with that. I like the guy. Now you and Sean need to heavy up with facts as opposed to tabloid hysterics if that is possible.
#1,
We do use facts, but you just don’t like them. Read the post above again. We broke the Hanlon story. We break big stories all the time.
And trust me, Sean is working on a post that is going to use facts to take Bill Hunt out of the hunt, once and for all…
No one cares about the Dead County Blog.
Meg County…Art, you never cease to crack me up!
Gustavo,
I wish I could take the credit for that one, but Sgt. York coined that phrase.
I can only imagine what else he will come up with. Surely Jerbal and Hanlon must be heading for the hills in their little red Jerbal-mobile!
Aaron,
Welcome aboard! Great job in exposing the shenanigans at Red County. I look forward to reading your posts.
It’s their ass now
Art. All I am saying is that this blog could get all the traffic primarily as a result of the contributers on board. Now you have York. Better yet. But when you stretch all bounds of credibility saying things like an individual has “a long criminal history” when the guy had 4 traffic tickets and the like it affects the blog’s creditability as a whole. Just sayin’.
#8,
Most people react to traffic tickets by driving safer afterwards. Not so, apparently, Reade.
You have to wonder, as the incidents occurred in different cities, if he was trolling for a police beating?
Taxpayers end up footing the bill when so-called civil rights activists troll for beatings and get what they wished for…
Park, As a admitted San Francisco Liberal, I welcome you. I dig the intelligent dialouge, not the fluff we see elsewhere.
We’ll likey disagree a lot, but fondness of Fair Oaks over Foothill Ranch,well have plenty to agree about.
Come on now Art, David Letterman drives like a maniac and gets more tickets when we can count, but I’m sure you’re suggesting he’s trolling for a beating. What #8 Flip Flop said is absolutely true and you KNOW it…the fact that you spin, exaggerate, stretch the truth to make your point and to have fun with your blog.
Oh and by the way, where’s Red Vixen???
Lam,
Nice try, but Letterman isn’t a whack-job looking to sue police departments – and rip off the taxpayers in the process.
As for my writing, yes I do try to be creative and entertaining. Why do you think our blog is such a success? Dry and boring isn’t terribly interesting, is it?
Red is on hiatus. The same Lib OC jerks who are suing me have threatened her in the past. She is likely waiting for me to beat them. She’ll be back. I hope!
