As I have pointed out repeatedly, the character-and-integrity challenged Jon Russell is an interesting guy.
Over on his Facebook Page, he fills in a little bit about himself.
The problem is that, like most integrity-challenged people, it's not the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Here's an unaltered excerpt:
The problem is what he's left out.
It's a problem for two reasons. First, because, well, he left it out. And second, those running for political office should provide FULL disclosure of ALL of their political activities... don't you think?
Of course, for me, Russell's deception is deliberate, and his efforts to deceive the electorate into thinking he's a stand up guy is just precisely the reason why I'm hammering him like a nail.
So, here's the rest of the political truth about Jon Russell, congressional candidate.
About Me:
I, of course, didn't have it. I didn't need it... didn't want it, and wouldn't have given it to him if I did. But is this the kind of person anyone would want to represent them in anything, be it Washougal city councilman or US Congressman?
Now, I can certainly get why he left out the first 3 in the "other experience" category.
But why is he so ashamed of his time at Faith and Freedom Network? An oversight, I'm sure,
Further, House Republican Leader Rep. Richard DeBolt has had the opportunity to work with Russell, Herrera and Castillo. And who is he endorsing?
Here's a hint. It ain't Russell.
It's kind of like deliberately misleading people with your bizarre labeling of campaign stops as "town hall meetings."
Why you insist on lying so much is a mystery to me.
The truth, Mr. Russell. People need to know EVERYTHING political about you, warts and all. After all, you wouldn't want to mislead people into thinking you're something you're not... would you?
