I’ve got mine already: one Travis Kiger bumper sticker on my truck and a sign in my yard.
Travis is one of our bloggers here on FFFF, and he’s the candidate who’s going to replace F. Dick Jones on city council when the recall succeeds.
Go check out his website at www.traviskiger.com and fill out the form to get a sign and bumper stickers delivered to your home.
Oh, and it wouldn’t hurt to hit the Donate button while you’re there.
It’s also nice having a good Friend like merijoe who’s idea it was to make and donate the Kiger bumper stickers. Thanks merijoe!!!

Don’t just take one. Give Travis some money.
#4 by karma on April 26, 2012
woot!
Give as much as you can afford, small amounts add up!
#5 by Christian on April 26, 2012
if everyone who signed the petitions gave just $5 for each signature ($15 out of pocket) to the candidate of their choosing, we would have some VERY well funded candidates who can afford to get their message to voters.
DONATE NOW

I don’t live in Fullerton – but I don’t put anyone’s name on the bumper of my car. It’s degrading.
I would only vote for the person who pre-announced his opening speech at his first council meeting post election. He would have to call out each and every scoundrel in City government. That would take at least 15 minutes. He would have to send a clear warning that there’s a new councilman in town who intends to clean house top to bottom. None of this crap about ‘olive branches’ or ‘diplomacy’. None of that works. It’s just code words for I want some of that gravy too. Folks, you aren’t looking for a career politician here. You are looking for someone to kick ass, take names, clean house – and then get out!!! Anything short of that is a total fail.
I warn the Fullerton voters….BELIEVE NOTHING THEY TELL YOU DURING CAMPAIGN SPEECHES. MAKE THEM SIGN A LEGAL WRITTEN PLEDGE THAT IF THEY DON’T DO AS THEY AGREED TO DO IN THEIR CAMPAIGN PROMISES – THAT THEY ARE BOUND TO TENDER THEIR RESIGNATIONS OR FACE CIVIL PENALTIES!
Watch how many are left standing after that. If someone is still around – vote for him.

Um yeah, while you’re at it why don’t you have them write that they are subject to the death penalty if they break their promises because.. you’re nuts.

How about relatively minor electric shocks. Maybe with a taser?
No, No, it’s just a joke. Seriously!

Good grief. I thought you folks were for honesty and transparency? All the sudden you are against holding candidates feet to the fire? Why would that be? Isn’t that how you got into the mess that you’re in today? You know what they say. Insanity is doing the same thing over again and expecting a different outcome.
#11 by Fred Alcazar on April 27, 2012
Holding their feet to the fire is one thing. Trying to make people sign a pledge of you own devising is not going to work. It’s not a contract, either.

Someone put one Kiger’s door-hangers on my humble home in south Fullerton this morning. One question … How is pension reform to be accomplished. Remember these police, fire, management, and miscellaneous employee negotiating units have signed contracts that have the force of law. It’s gonna take a lot more than a new city council do the job. City bankruptcy might not even be enough void these contracts.
#13 by admin on April 26, 2012
Right. New contracts are going to have to be negotiated in which the youngsters pay off the obligations of their predecessors.
There will be later retirements, lower formulas, lower subsidy of insurance premiums, full employee payment of pension obligations.

Oops. I should have let Travis answer!
#15 by Tony's parrot on April 26, 2012
Travis will do whatever Tony tells him to do. You are correct to answer for Travis.
#16 by Joe Sipowicz on April 26, 2012
Travis answers for himself. He took on the Culture of Corruption while the other 134,998 Fullertonions were wandering around afraid their own shadows.

No pension “holidays” and reserve funds built up during better economic times – instead of giving away the store.
#18 by Travis on April 28, 2012
SM,
Pension debt reduction will have to come in two forms: (1) New hires must be moved to a 401(k)-style defined contribution plan and (2) existing employees will either have to agree to a reduced formula (extremely, extremely unlikely) or face compensation reductions which, over the long run, can accomplish the same goal.
Of course it will take a council majority with backbone and a strong commitment to the taxpayers in order to pull that off. I think we’ve got a great shot at victory here.

And for pete sakes, don’t replace Dracula, Frankenstein and The Werewolf with Godzilla, The Mummy and The Blob.
Put all the principles you’ve learned in the last year or two into practice in June. Don’t be fooled by sweet or clever promises. You’ve come way too far for that. Good luck!

Anyone can post as Tony!

I’ll put it next to the sticker that says “Horn Broken, Watch for Finger”
#23 by Hollis Dugan on April 26, 2012
Hey Admin, what ever happened to the “Gass, Grass or Ass, No One rides for Free ” sticker that was on your truck?
#24 by admin on April 26, 2012
Fred L. took it off, of course it was against my wishes.
