The Times Free Press has followed up the Worst Mayor Ever Worldwide Exclusive report on the Littlefield Transcripts (TM Billy Blades) by publishing a story about, er, the Littlefield Transcripts.
When the TFP asked him about the situation, Alberto Gonzales, Ron Littlefield claimed that he couldn't recall if Ward introduced him to the union bosses at SEIU. Mind you, the transcripts reveal that this union connection had never 'played' in Chattanooga before, so Ron would have been meeting him for the first time in 2005. It's not like it would have been years ago in some smoky union hall. It would have been recently and in the transcript Ward says he was going to handle this introduction himself. That might ring a bell with most people.
When asked if they believed Ron's tale of Instant Onset Amnesia, even a little bit, Everybody In The World Since Forever, said 'No.'
Former SEIU boss Don Driscoll 'couldn't be reached.'
Can you imagine poor Ron, when he got the phone call from the reporter scrambling to come up with something to distance himself from the government documents linking him to convicted felons?!? Of course, all he could only come up with was the "I Don't Recall" gambit.
That tactic, which, since its rise to glory with Reagan during the Iran-Contra hearings to its pathetic death from overuse recently in Congressional testimony by Alberto Gonzalez is now tantamount to an admission of guilt.
Things are looking bleak for Littlefield. He used the unions for money, votes and volunteers during the campaign. Then he gave them lip service, so he could appear to be paying them back quid pro quo (I'll detail an example in a future post), and then he moved on when he didn't need them. Now the unions are feeling they were set up and they're not happy about it. Well, at least they know how the citizens of Chattanooga feel.
