Coincidentally, this is also a great time to ask:  “Who really is Jerry McDonkey?”

Take a long hard look at yourself.  It’s ok, spit out your mouthwash.  I know you’re brushing your teeth.  But after you put the toothbrush back in that plastic Mickey Mouse cup you bought a couple years ago at Disneyland.   Take a long hard look at yourself.

Then ask yourself:  “Do I really know Jerry McDonkey.”

“Do I really know him?  Do I know about the front groups that spent millions and millions of dollars to support him?  Do I know about the lies and the loose ends in his life?  Why did he never state his position on a multitude of subjects, to the people he intends to represent?  Why does billionaire George Soros, for all intensive purposes, bankroll support for him?  He never mentioned his lies on Ethics Committee forms, his lies about his business background.  Is this a man you really know?

One last time, ask yourself if you really know Jerry McDonkey.

Chances are, you don’t.

“Ladies and gentlemen, Jerry McDonkey.” That’s how former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown introduced the guest of honor at a political event last month at Oakland’s Grand Lake Theater. Then, when Brown handed over the mic, he mumbled “McNursery.” (For those of you that haven’t seen this video footage, its located in this blog’s ”Stuff of Legend” post.)

Ha! Wait… then the East Bay Express reporter actually asked Jerry McNerney about his new nickname, “Jerry McDonkey.” Here’s the text:

McNerney says Brown was just clowning around, having some fun with his name. Brown had to know his name, right?

Clowning around? A reporter just asked a candidate for U.S. Congress why he’s called “McDonkey.” That’s awesome! That has to irk McDonkey.

When a person is running in a tight race- you don’t botch the candidate’s name twice at a major Soros-backed-out-of-the-11th-District-fundraiser like Willie Brown did. Look, I had trouble enunciating Jerry’s last name when I first learned about him. But seriously, blunted mental acuity coupled with Stoli could have a thing or two with the legendary “McDonkey slip.”

But that’s just a theory.

I would have included a link to the East Bay Express.  But the reporter conveniently spun the article into an anti-Pombo hit-piece using Pelosicrat rhetoric and DCCC jabber. If you really want to read it, just Google “Jerry McDonkey” and scroll halfway down the first page.

 In all honesty, I have to harbor respect for a newspaper reporter that actually asked McNerney to his face why he’s called “McDonkey.” At least the reporter has a sense of humor, and that’s a good thing. Too bad the article had to coddle the ultra-liberal tastes of its readers instead of speaking the truth about McDonkey.  I understand the reporter’s plight, dealing with a liberal editorial board… but this whole thing is kinda funny, dontcha think?

I wish there was a mention of McDonkey lying on forms to the House Ethics Committee, the backing of McNerney by multimillion-dollar eco-litigation machines and misleading TV ads?

Too bad the people at the East Bay Express didn’t ask the question on everyone’s mind…

Who really is Jerry McDonkey?

Well, Roll Call doesn’t need its logo used in misleading McDonkey commercials against Richard Pombo. I mean, would you want your name associated with ads that lie to the American public? The McDonkey advertisements completely distort the truth of Roll Call’s involvement as a “source” for the ad.

In fact, the deputy editor of Roll Call complained about McDonkey and wrote a letter to McDonk asking his campaign to stop using the newspaper’s logo in the television ads.

McDonkey ethical? Well, he already lied on Ethics Committee forms regarding financial records.

McDonkey lying to the public with his commercials?

I think people are starting to see the truth about Jerry McDonkey.

Ask yourself again, who is Jerry McDonkey?

Behold the McDonkey.

Ask yourself one question:  who is Jerry McDonkey?

That was until a friend of mine started asking him about these purported “friends” and alleged “girlfriends.”  I think I was chewing on a “Now&Later” thinking about watching Goonies on HBO.

The point is- deception will only take you so far.  After fully investigating McDonkey’s accusations, all the major local newspapers in the 11th Congressional District of California endorsed Richard Pombo instead of McNerney.

I think the editors at the papers finally asked the question on everyone’s mind… who is Jerry McDonkey?

 The legend continues…

Ask yourself, who is Jerry McDonkey?

If I would stay in my room and just shut up for a while, I would get away with it.  My dad would eventually fix the problem, and everyone would forget about it.

Jerry McDonkey is sitting in his room like a kid trying to see if he can get away with something.  Something big.

If you run for U.S. Congress on a faux-ethical platform like Jerry McNerney is pretending to do, you think he’d at least be truthful in his submissions to the Ethics Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives.  Remember, McDonkey is a guy who accused Congressman Richard Pombo of the most despicable things (and all of McDonkey’s accusations are unfounded) but Jerry McNerney lied on forms to the House Ethics Committee about his financial information.

This story was covered by the Associated Press and also touched on in the Tracy Press.  Sure McDonkey will kick his hooves and try to spin, but seriously…

Who is Jerry McDonkey? 

Who is Jerry McNerney?… he and his family live on little or no income, except from his parents’ trust of less than a quarter million dollars.  In 2004, he reported no income.  He has created six start-up companies – most inactive and none that have taken off.  He told the San Francisco Chronicle he is waiting for “venture capital.”  He has been a consultant for energy companies, getting $2,109 this year from two jobs.  His filing creates more questions than they answer.  How does someone live in the tony community of Pleasanton with little or no income. (Tracy Press, 11.1.2006)

Ok, I wish I had a trust of less than $250,000.  Maybe I could also start a “wind-energy company” on paper just to get some environmental credibility.  But hey, who am I to create such conjecture?

Who is Jerry McDonkey?

Enjoy!

Oh, and ask yourself… who is Jerry McDonkey?

I wish I was a Hollywood liberal. I would have a house in Malibu, and order my limo-driver to take me down Cross Creek Road to the Pacific Coast Highway where I would eat something real expensive at Malibu Seafood. Or maybe I would have one of those Grey Poupon drenched cheeseburgers with slices of goat cheese instead of Kraft Singles on it at the Marmalade Cafe. All this while pounding shots of tequila. Yeah, sounds like a plan. A real plan.

Apparently Ben Affleck thought something similar would suffice in this drunken interview where he makes fun of people with cerebral palsy and heavily gropes a Quebecois female reporter. Maybe Jerry McNerney, I mean… the Washington eco-litigation machine “The Defenders of Wildlife” (sorry for the mixup) should have thought about that when they invited the now-righteous Ben Affleck to their anti-Pombo day.

Don’t bother clicking on the picture above for a link. Yes, that is the righteous “Daredevil” showing the reporter some “love”, but the video has some strong language. YouTube has to verify you’re 18 or older to watch it. If watching Big Ben talk about the moral good while drunk, groping women and making fun of people with cerebral palsy is your thing, here’s the YouTube link. Use it at your own discretion and check your license again just to see if you’re old enough. This is a family blog, so let’s keep it clean- even if the “Defenders of Wildlife” are making that a hard thing to do.

Leave it to McDonkey’s 527 non-profit backers to invite “Ben the bastion of Pelosicrat moral-doublespeak” to a wealthy eco-litigant anti-Pombo drum circle. Pardon the run-on sentence… but ask yourself: who is Jerry McDonkey?
