Incompetent
Sheriff Daniel
Wants to be Commissioner
Josephine
County, Oregon – Josephine County Sheriff Dave Daniel
announced on December 9, 2005, his intention to run against current
Commissioner Jim Riddle in the next election. Daniel reportedly charged,
“The biggest problem facing the county is lack of leadership.”
Daniel continued, “I feel I can provide that.” Given the
Sheriff’s track record, nothing could be further from the truth.
Realizing that Daniel has done a miserable job running the Sheriff’s
Office, does he really think he can fool Josephine County voters for
a third time and buffalo them into thinking he can run the entire county?
Recently
Daniel announced that he wouldn’t run for a third term because
he was tired of politics. Upon hearing of his intention to run for commissioner
those of us at the US~Observer began laughing out loud. We are once
again hearing empty words from this “double-minded” man
and soon we will hear all of Dave’s promises just as we did when
he ran for Sheriff … all of which turned out to be outright lies.
Daniel
has factually cost Josephine County taxpayers hundreds of thousands
of hard earned tax dollars because of lawsuits filed against him by
his own deputies and we are informed that there are more coming …
And now he expects voters to elect him as a commissioner. During his
second term as Sheriff his own deputies gave him a vote of no confidence.
The
Observer has published many articles regarding Daniel squandering his
budget, to his making ridiculous and prejudicial decisions. We won’t
rehash all the valid charges against Daniel at this time; however they
can be viewed on the web at usobserver.com.
Daniel
started his new campaign by telling the Courier, “We need to keep
our current employees whole because they will be doing more work with
less people.” Good advice from a Sheriff who abused so many of
his own employees, fired several of them wrongfully and threatened them
publicly that they had better be loyal to him or else.
Closer
to election time the Observer will dig up old bones and new ones on
Daniel in an effort to assist voters in seeing that this guy is not
an administrator and has no business running anything in Josephine County,
Oregon. Don’t miss our up-coming editions wherein we will publish
everything from Daniel sending deputies to the Olympics for security,
to sending 5 officers out at mid-night to arrest an alleged chicken
thief … all while his office was supposedly under financial crises
and while he was screaming to the public for more tax dollars.
Citizens
need to begin talking and informing others about our incompetent Sheriff
and the dire consequences should he become a commissioner here in Josephine
County, Oregon.
