Sound Politics: Comment on Secretary Reed refuses to answer these questions under oath and under penalty of perjury (RE: Eyman's lawsuit)

Comment on Entry: Secretary Reed refuses to answer these questions under oath and under penalty of perjury (RE: Eyman's lawsuit), authored by Tim Eyman

1. When is Tim Eyman going to stop posting on SP?

2. I'm with you on this one Eyman, but it's a little disingenuous to this like you've done. A lot of those questions (1) call for a legal opinion, which Sec. Reed is not in a position to give nor CAN he give, (2) inquire into privileged communication between Sec. Reed and his counsel, and (3) are not germane to the issue before the court, and answers to which would not be admissible evidence anyway

Perhaps you could take the high road and explain that Sec. Reed isn't QUITE as bad as you're making him out to be.

3. What a joke.

I was going to write more, but what's the point? Partisan Eyman-lovers (such as Eyman) think this is all brilliant legal and political strategy, and nothing I write will persuade them of anything. Everyone else recognizes it for what it is.

4. Admit or deny that YOU ARE THE WORST SECRETARY OF STATE EVER.

5. From: Tim Eyman

Two weeks ago, Judge Hicks agreed with our request and ordered Secretary Reed to not sell 3.4 million names, signatures and home addresses on petitions for $1500 to a for-profit lobbyists for commercial purposes.

Earlier today, however, Judge Hicks agreed with the Secretary of State that discovery can be put on hold while this issue is being considered for review by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Nonetheless, we believe the public and the press would be better served if Secretary Reed answered the questions sooner rather than later.

6. Bruce my eyes are open! Tim wants the law upheld...which equates to civilization remains civilized...you want caves and small huts and roving bands of invaders. At least someone has drawn a line. SR think about it when do you stop unraveling the law...when you are atop the pile of bones?
for JJ-SR is the Best Sec State Ever because he will break the law. SR picture now hangs next to picture of Prius.
Tim Eyman worst Washingtonian ever because he asks to uphold the law.

Tim's got standards and the rest of you don't like any standards so SR and the rest hide behind their lawyers with childlike/bunker mentalities...until Tim goes away.

What a waste of good resources by SR attempting to subvert civilization. Pursue civilization and Tim will go away...'no market' for his services.

Request for Confession #1: Admit or deny that you have stopped beating your wife.

8. How has Sam Reed broken the law? The judge agreed to his request.

9. Excuses, stalls and lies, the tools of the crooked politician's trade. It's a sad day in hell when people have to go through "discovery" to get a few simple, straight answers out of their elected representatives that relate directly to the performance of their official functions.

10. Gee, Eyman sure makes the morons like Jensen and Brucey get all tingly inside.

And Jake, if you don't like what Tim is posting, feel free to not read it. Meanwhile, we can kick back and pummel the leftist scum infesting Tim's threads.

11. As if there was ever any doubt that Reed's actions are underhanded, Bruce proves the point.
When one has no defense to a claim, simply attack the attacker. Nothing like a good change of subject to blur any issue.

Bruce, does your wife (or boyfriend) let you get away with that silly nonsense?

12. How true #10! I'ts threatning to them to hear commmon sense.I know one possible ? that would be good to ask lets find out when election time comes for him?and watch for election irregularities.

ADMIT OR DENY that you have NEVER served in your coutry's armed forces.

14. Warning: This is a personal attack of an idiot that deserves it. Ignore if personal attacks bother you.

Timmy is an idiot, a jerk, a blowhard, and an hypocrite.

We will not return to the blogcast of the occasional insightful post surrounded by mostly crap.

15. Amused@11, I was not attacking the attacker, I was using a literary device. Jeez.

16. Pete, Bruce, et all: I think your giving Eyman WAY too much credit.

Has Sam Reed been officially indicted and charged with anything? No. And that would be the only format warranting direct answers "under oath and under penalty of perjury" (not a lawsuit in a civil trial).

If this were not so, I really could sue anyone and
use it to legally "demand answers". Wouldn't that be a fun world?

Col. Hogan: under this "Eymanism", you would surely get your wish of caves and small huts and roving bands of invaders (oh my!)

Any "law and order" conservatives left out there, or do you all just talk the big talk?
*crickets chirp*

(Note: don't make me sue you and get the answers!)
