The "Guess Janet's Secret Donors" Contest
Posted by: Jubal | 06/06/2007 12:47 PM
Who are the three mysterious and overly generous donors to Supervisor Janet Nguyen's illegal legal defense fund?
Unions?
Vietnamese with ties and/or sympathies to Hanoi communists?
Democrats?
I don't know, but it sounds like a good excuse for another Red County/OC Blog contest.
Post a maximum of three guesses in the comments. The commenter with the most correct guesses will win a Magic 8-Ball:
The winner will be announced when and if Janet Nguyen discloses the identities of the three donors.



My guesses:
Cindy Tran
Suzanne Lewis
Susan Schroeder
Ha!
Lee's Sandwiches
Nguoi Viet
The Photoshop Guy (he really did it tank Trung).
The unions all know that it was reportable so they wouldn't have done it. It has to be Viets because they might've actually believed Janet's claim that everything was Kosher.
With the exception of Nguoi Viet, Mr. Photoshop and Lee's Sandwiches all don't want it known publicly that they contributed to Janet out fear of retribution by Van Tran.
My guesses:
Tony Lam
Tony Lam
and
Tony Lam
You are part right, but Tony Lam doesn't use any of his own money. But, he does control Lee's Sandwiches, Nguoi Viet, and a large number of other monied interests.
if there are any Vietnamese contributors, you shouldn't have to look very deep to find the Tony Lam connection. So, you are not technically correct because Tony's name won't be on anything but the intent will be there.
Yawn...this is becoming old. The news cycle is not usually this cumbersome here.
Sorry, didn't mean to bore anyone with a county supervisor ignoring a county ordinance.
But those of us with longer attention spans will keep focused on it.
I believe one will be a former video store owner named Truong Van Tran!

Boring? This is absolutely hi-larious. I'd try to guess, but I don't have ANY IDEA who the malefactors might be. Hitler's dead, right?
1. Nick Lecong (20k)
2. Association of Orange County Sheriff's Deputies
3. Tony Lam
Tony Bedolla (Firefighters Union
Sara Ruckle-Harms (Orange County Employees Association)
Larry Yellin (Orange County Attorney’s Association)
I don't find this boring either, and I'd love to know if the Unions were stupid enough to give her the $$$. I doubt it, but who knows? Their FPPC paperwork is due the end of July, and, if she's still stonewalling, it will be interesting to see what they report.
