Over on the Facebook page for my blog we were discussing the Simi Valley Kohl's selling Chick-Fil-A shirts. I asked what message would it send to wear that shirt. There was a debate with many opinions from a variety of views. But this comment made me laugh.

Sounds like everyone should boycott Kohl's!
In Simi Valley self appointed tea party executive grand poobah Doug Crosse is at war with Simi Valley Council Woman Barb Williamson. It all started when she forced Mashburn to change his job title on the ballot. Williamson has called Crosse a big cry baby and Crosse said Williamson is no longer his friend.
Dear Mr. War, Follow the thread Simi Valley Letters to the editor on Facebook. Most agree with what I posted. I'm the ELECTED Ex. Dir. of The Simi Valley Moorpark TEA Party, Inc. My post:
SV City Councilwoman Barbara Williamson’s attack on challenger Keith Mashburn’s ballot designation was petty, personal and politically motivated. Keith started as a volunteer firefighter and over a 31 year career earned his way up to Deputy
Battalion Chief and Lead Arson Investigator. For Ms. Williamson to use her influence over a fine city employee to change Mashburn's requested designation of Retired Fire Chief is intolerable. It shows once again what many of us already know, there is no low that she wont stoop to protect her job and lavish benefits.
The irony and dereliction of duty by our Registrar of Voters sending it back to the Simi Valley Elections Coordinator for a decision is appalling. Mark Lunn VC Registrar of Voters is a former Deputy Chief for the California Highway Patrol. He listed his ballot designation as “Retired CHP Chief” NOT Deputy Chief in 2010.
No Ms. Williamson this was not an effort to “level the playing field”. It was just another in the growing list of thinly disguised shenanigans you’ve perpetrated to tip that field in your favor. You can add my name to the expanding roster of people who have lost all respect for you.
Doug,
Do you think that Mark Lunn's ballot designation was accurate?
Yes. To the extent it can be in three words. As was Mashburn’s original. Was Sitting Bull a Chief? Yes, but just not THE Chief. Was Patton a General? Yes, just not THE General. My opinion is that the challenge was petty and political. With which most folks seem to agree.
"Lavish benefits". What a joke! The billionaires who own the sheep in the tea party get lavish benefits. Only a ham and egger would say the City Council members in Simi have "lavish" benefits. Williams and the Council Members deserve those benefits, they were elected by the voters, not self-appointed like you were in the tea party. Did you take all of the offered benefits when you were on the School Board Crosse?
