If Sarah Gurney compared an elected city council to a law partnership, this is truly appalling. A law partnership looks out for the good of the partnership. Members become members because of what...

Barry,

Thanks for your response.
It is important that we all speak out.

Whether we agree with or support Jonathan Greenberg for city council is not the question.
We have seen the 'swift...

I've been out on the street by the Library this morning, and someone commented on how sad it was that this kind of smear campaign has come to Sebastopol. I like the phrase "paid for by Sebastopol...

I am shocked by this scurrilous mailer. I believe the people of Sebastopol will have a similar reaction. The Press Democrat also begs to differ from the anti-Greenberg faction. This is from today's...

I am sorry to see this mailer. It's an example of ugly politics. The only thing that would make it even worse would be for it to be anonymous. However I have to say that I am disappointed in the...

It has been brought to my attention by Mr. Shepherd Bliss that I was wrong to assert that Mr. Greenberg is still married. If he and his former wife are now separated but cooperate in raising their...

Sealwatcher,

Thanks for your reply.

When you see something like this it makes you wonder if you are in the twilight zone or some alternate reality where Carl Rove is the puppet master behind...

We are in shock!

In our 40 years in Sebastopol, we have never seen such a hostile hit piece as the one below!
We should all be in mourning if this is how our local politics are being played...

At the farmer's market this last Sunday, Jonathan and Una Glass conversed pleasantly for 3 hours! I often see Jonathan as humble, caring, and respectful - especially with those he's working with.

I would like to add a few comments about Jonathan Greenberg. Facts are he was a financial reporter for more than twenty years for a big financial magazine. He came to Sebastopol from the Big Apple....

Thanks for your post Gaiakai, I'd have to agree. I've been working closely with Jonathan for nearly a year, and have helped him with the campaign to restore library hours, Palm Drive, as well as his...

From the people I've talked to (and I've talked to a lot of Sebastopol residents going door-to-door the past 3 weeks) most of them want a hospital emergency room open. Anyone who says otherwise is...

Good question. They are running unopposed; either vote for them or not. We looked at this at our meeting and did not have sufficient info so just took a pass; no endorsement. If anyone has any...

Re Progressive Sebastopol now endorsing YES on 45. Just heard on the radio that the NO on 45 campaign has reached $30 million...and counting. Biggest contributors are the health insurance companies. ...

Speaking as a seasoned RN, I can tell you unequivocally an urgent care center does not equate with an emergency room. I have been following this thread with interest and as an aside, reading text...

Regarding the last election--and this one, Richard:

Below is Progressive Sebastopol's voter guide for 2012; which focused on electing Eder and Jacob as the central local issue in that election. We...

I want to commend Progressive Sebastopol for their excellent voter's guide and for their integrity and bravery to change their mind.

I think it is quite unfortunate that politicians are routinely...

<Uhm, I was actually talking about the absurdity of a candidate creating his own self-promoting voter guide, > Isn't this what many candidates do so people know exactly where they stand? If not,...

Thanks, Kai, for making the changes.

Laying out a voter's guide is challenging, with the columns and fitting it all into a handy one page printout. In the process, we mixed up Prop 45 and Prop...

Progressive Sebastopol runs on all-electric, pure acceleration, none of the messy gear changing and pollution involved with cylinders, BUT if Progressive Sebastopol were a combustion engine it would...

It's reassuring to have someone in our community who does this kind of in-depth research. It's truly above and beyond. I hope that I can do enough to help spread the word of Jonathan's passionate...

The debate over what Sebastopol’s City Council has, and has not done, in responding to the unprecedented, sudden, and enormously impactful closing of Palm Drive Hospital, is an important one. I...
