Editor's Note:
As our name implies, the members of the Schuylkill Truth Squad are
committed to accurately sharing facts with our readers. With this in mind,
it is imperative that we point out the mistruths and wild speculations in Mr.
Zellner's letter below. We also must ask that anyone responding to our
posts, please refrain from name calling and childish behavior and stick to the
facts.
___________________________
Very Nice, Schuylkill County Hit Squad, Still not enough Honor or
Courage to sign your name to your words. Its easy to speak with
anonymity, hiding behind the keyboard, wires, and the ones and zeros of
the internet to voice your opinion and attacks, valid or otherwise.
That is not courage of conviction. That is pusillanimity on full display.
Lets take your three of your first four post to task...
First
Rep. Knowles Unchallenged in Primary and General election, you celebrate that as a great thing. For Rep. Knowles is it, but is it for the people? Does any unchallenged seat benefit the people? I say no. Again spirit of competition. A challenger for any political seat causes the current occupant to be more accountable to the people and not become complacent, it is the next best thing to Term limits.
Second
You seem to be taking a bit too much joy in a fellow republicans "misfortune". I will say if Mr. Burton is guilty of something he should be held accountable just as anyone else, but not more than anyone else. With out having been there, the whole thing seems shady to me. I happen to know many State Troopers (not necessarily these Troopers) and the are men of honor (a foreign concept to you I know) and not prone to mistakes. District Justice Ferrier recused himself from hearing the refiled charges, yet Holman publicly attacked him, and did not recuse herself despite her husbands connection to Senator Argall and Rep Knowles. Does this mean there is something shady? Not necessarily, but there is the "Appearance of Impropriety"
Third
Ok.
Forth
Again, your personal bias shines bright like a diamond. If Mr. Lukach did wrong, he should pay just like everyone else, and i say Kudos to Cristy Joy for finding the issues. But again, there is the "Appearance of Impropriety" when the only elected Democrat in the courthouse, who has been in office for many years because he is wildly popular and has had no major issues in the past, all of the sudden has major issues in his office? I believe that is what was stated, that was my take away. I guess you take away what you WANT to take away, depending on your bias.
SO what is the take away here? While you were upset about "sour grapes" that these were just attacks on Holman and The Beauty King of Schuylkill county (Schoenman's), you are guilty of the same thing, all you seem to be doing it attacking the Conservatives of Schuylkill County and specifially Mr. Sterns who just happens to be very vocal in his beliefs. I would assume, I too will be a target soon because, I dare speak out. After all HOW DARE anyone challenge the Establishment Republican Party right.

Mr. Zellner doesn't hesitate to take a shot at Rep. Knowles for
running unopposed, but yet he fails to mention that Patriot committeeman
candidates in Pottsville who faced opposition had friends file court
challenges to have their opponents removed. We guess it's only a threat
to the spirit of competition when the shoe is on the other foot.
As for the sad situation of Jamie Barton, again
Mr. Zellner is carelessly throwing accusations and allegations without
anything to back them up. All we ask is that everyone wait for
the TRUE story and the facts.
Finally, we strongly suggest that Mr. Zellner do some homework in
regard to the Steve Lukach matter. Controller Christy Joy has been
auditing other offices in the Courthouse - not just the Clerk of
Courts. It's part of his job - there is no witch hunt on Democrats - only
a hard working Republican doing his job. When the last Republican to hold
that office, Gary Hornberger, last audited this same office, improprieties were
found at that time as well - not the pretty picture of Steve that
Mr. Zellner is painting. Of course, nothing has happened in the last few
years because the Controller's office was held by an incompetent Democrat,
Melinda Kantner, and the DA's office was also held by Democrats Jim Goodman and
Karen Noon during this time. Yet again, RINO Mike Zellner is
spending more time attacking Republicans who are trying to clean up this
mess instead of questioning why the previous Democrat controller and
DA didn't do their jobs.
