Shock Video

Philip R. Klein accuses Rhonda Dugas of being a drug addict in his latest posting on the SET Political Review:

Dugas, dressed in a orange top and showing her bra strap and cut t-shirt - rants on about Carolyn Guidry and explains to the viewer - well nothing? She really says a bunch of nothing. As we were watching the video and laughing this morning - a guest to the Reviews office laughed and said : "...there is no doubt she is either drug or high..."

Frankly - we don't know but we blew up the video on our systems and took a good look at her eyes and it did not look good for dear Rhonda.

This isn't valid political comment, it's merely a mean-spirited, personal attack. Moreover, I found Dugas' charge of discrimination against Carolyn Guidry much more pertinent to this campaign.

Philip promises to file a complaint:

However, when you are in politics - you have to play by the rules. So - we here at the Review will file our complaint post checking the status of her campaign contribution report (s) at 5 p.m. And we will post it.

Here are Rhonda's filings, according to the Jefferson County Clerk's website. Note the date that the reports were recorded by the County Clerk's office (in red):

For the record, Philip R. Klein is a blatant liar and these allegations are actionable as defamatory statements.

So far during this campaign cycle, he has stated that Rhonda Dugas, Judge Lupe Flores, Jefferson County District Attorney Tom Maness, and David Bellow are guilty of campaign violations. He's also personally attacked candidates Kolby Flowers, Jamie Smith, Jeff Brannick, Keith Hawkes, Brent Weaver, Mark Domingue, and claimed that his sources tell him County Judge Ron Walker will leave office in April.

We smell a rat...

I smell a class action lawsuit.

Disclaimer: This is not an endorsement of Rhonda Dugas, Carolyn Guidry, Sgt. Derwin Seals, or James Ferrell, but another example of how Philip R. Klein regularly distorts the truth to advance his own selfish and personal agenda.
