Jeeses Chryst Edwards . . . take a MIDOL will ya?
in this day and time it might be useful to be reminded that muckraking was once an honorable function of the press...to comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. a couple of references:
Chris, thank you for yet another example of great local investigative journalism!
I'll ask around to see if other folks can add more information and evidence to help answer the questions you have raised.
Thanks again!

regarding the dispute involving employees at the public owned golf course: authoritarians/conservatives hate unions passionately - they are altogether too independent to fit in with their plans for more complete control. besides, authoritarians need to control patronage to extend their grip.
Absolutely true! If it wasn't for unions, a large portion of democrat politicians would lose a source of income . Thank you for bringing that up!
since you are concerned about unions financial support for democrat politicians - might i direct your attention to the amount of $$$ that oil and gas companies supply to republican politicians? sauce for the goose, sauce for gander?
Thank You Alamogordo Police Department. Lock Him Up And Throw Away the Key!!! Let's Kick His Family Out Of Here Too!!
Well, if we stay in the theme of mudslinging, it’s a horrible thing that this is happening in Otero county. Perhaps its time fir a regime change in the sheriffs office.
another fringe candidate with considerable experience and background, who fails to grasp the underlying problems for manufacturing in our country. for decades, investors have been shuttering mills/mines/production/assembly lines, and moving off-shore to take advantage of cheaper labor
True. When 300 dollar shoes cost a dollar to make in China…
Tom, you're right about the history. Decades of offshoring gutted American manufacturing and cheaper labor was absolutely part of it.
Sheriff Yazza for the win.
viewed from a wider scale - this is just another case of hard-ball politics within the republican establishment, the same conditions exist all the way up to the white house.
democracy is so 20th century...get with the program, authoritarianism is the new gold standard of the party.
True. What happened at the Otero County Democrat Party again?
