Abe Atiyeh Honors Word, Adds Disclaimer


When I complained to real estate mogul Abe Atiyeh about the lack of a disclaimer on his Lamont McClure Billboard, he promised me on Sunday that he'd add one. Today, despite pressure from Lamont McClure to keep us all in the dark about who is funding his campaign, Abe honored his word and added a disclaimer at the bottom of his McClure billboard. I respect his desire to do the right thing, and his willingness to err on the side of transparency. Too bad the candidate he supports would prefer you never knew.

    McClure and Atiyeh had better be familiar with the election advertising laws regarding financing and reporting this thing.

    "despite pressure from Lamont McClure to keep us all in the dark about who is funding his campaign,"

    You can prove this statment how? You have made an accusation, so were is your proof? You have yet to prove John Stoffa wasn't in on the deceptove billboards put up for him but you claim McClure is, why?

    You may be reading the Callaham script well but where is your proof? You are well known for your campaign smears and this is just another one.

    Will the guy behind the curtain please come out. He is known to be a former county official.

    I can prove the statement I made or i would not have made it. It's what I heard this morning from Abe himself. Do you want to call McClure's benefactor a liar?

    How did Abe get this monstrosity of a sign approved by Palmer Twp.? Who did he pay off on the zoning board? The neighbors of his day-glow nightmare should storm the next meeting of the Board of Supervisors demanding that it be torn down.

    I'd recommend pitchforks, but not torches. Abe will be selling LED lights at the door.

    When Abe admits publically that is what he said, it will be a fact. Until then it is just another in a long line of smears you throw at people you hate. I hope Callaham is paying you well.

    Don't forget to report on fromer Gov. Remdell enodrsing Callaham this week. Of course Remdell endorsed Reibman against
    Stoffa, you slamed him then. Will you slam him now?

    Uhhhh, it's ReNdell not Remdell. I hope facts are checked a little more than you check your spelling. Makes it hard to take you seriously.
