my first witness is Kenny Loggins...people smile and
tell him he's the lucky one...Kenny, did you know that Wendy and Nipper fire people for joining the union? would you fire a session guitarist for belonging to the musicians union? and that the Chumash Gambling and Crime Syndicate is sponsoring this year's telethon with poor peoples' gambling losses!!! they threw in $80000 at the last minute to bolster the anemic donations past $400000! you ok with that Kenny?? or are you gonna just stand there and sing??
maybe it started out as a good idea, maybe Kenny Loggins, who was made rich by light rock music fans all over the world, started feeling guilty about it and wanted to funnel some of the riches to poor people...maybe that's why the nonprofit Unity Shoppe was started...
But something happened when they let the News-Press get involved a few years ago..credibility was lost..the News-Press sponsored the event with Wendy's ex-husband's money she stole in a divo
rce settlement!!! so the criminals and frauds at the News-Press turned the charity into a fiasco with Nipper hosting and Dr. Laura showing up and Wendy not bothering to show up..this year Nipper, who is also supported by Wendy's ex, will be co-hosting...the first thing the Unity Shoppe should do is dis-invite this clown! You would think that the Unity Shoppe would invite a few of the recipients of the charity to co-host it..but no...just a bunch of "celebrities" like fat-ass phony Andy Granatelli!
Judge...my next witnesses are Nipper and Dr. Laura
Nipper and Dr. Laura showed up again....Dr. Laura with her poodle in her arms looked creepy as usual and claimed she's "Grand Marshall" of the motorcycle Toy run that starts on Santa Claus Lane on Sunday the 13th...what used to be the Toys for Tots Run has been overtaken by
rightwingers at the Unity Shoppe and if they want Dr. Laura to show up, then they have sunk to a new low....this woman is a wreck and a total fraud!! and why would you want her on the telethon?? with her stupid poodle!! why!!???? unbelievable idiots!
and then this year with the Victoria Hall controversy where the Unity Shoppe, CALM and Ensemble Theater squabbled over some real estate leases...there's some uncharitable in-fighting over money going on! Now, what is curious to me is the people who run these nonprofits...it's like secret society of thieves who come out once a year to panhandle on TV! Remember, these are the people who want to pass laws to keep homeless veterans away from their businesses! what a bunch of flaming hypocrites!!
and I have to wonder about the relationship between the United Way and the Unity Shoppe. I used to give to the United Way years ago until the CEO was busted f
or using my donations to enrich himself...it is too easy for these tax exempt outfits to steal. The United Way has a guy on the board of directors who also sits on the Unity Shoppe board. The Santa Barbara United Way pays its CEO $215000/year! The SB United Way has millions of dollars in revenues..so why don't these two nonprofits join forces if they sit on each others boards?
Unity Shoppe CA 2008 assets: $6,120,96..so what is the ratio of giving to receiving, I wonder....and JOBSMART is now part of Unity Shoppe..this is (News-Press Editorial guest)Terry Tyler's old nonprofit that his wife ran..get this: they give you clean clothes for a job interview..new shoes, a sport coat, whatever you need..look, if you need help to get some clean clothes for a job interview, you'd be better off homeless because I sure as hell wouldn't hire you!!! THESE FOLKS ARE CLUELESS!!
It seems to me that the Unity Shoppe telethons aren't helping people to be self-sufficient, instead they do feel-good shows that PROMOTE THE GIVERS and ask for money to allow a fake store to exist for poor people!! The premise being you can shop at the Unity Shoppe Store without paying for it, but it seems like you really are paying for it because you pick the goods out just like in a real store..only the goods are free..but the kids won't feel so bad that their parents are poor when they see them shopping on their own..you follow me? It's like a weird sci-fi psychology experiment with a steady supply of impoverished Mexicans as the subjects, while the rich guys in lab coats (Nipper and Herman's Hermit) look over them with snide approval (gee, I'm glad I'm not as poor as you)!! and this is supposed to supply the poor with dignity?? they don't give a shit..they are poor and free stuff is free stuff!!!
Your Honor, where's the education, the work, the investment advice for the needy? where's the 401(k) plan for Maria Martinez and her family? or is it just another pinata Christmas of beans and rice and an old used doll for little Lupe?
I don't have the answers yet, but maybe you can celebrate me home this Christmas by explaining it to me Kenny, you really need to show some leadership and look into all this.. and until I see some accountability, I BOYCOTT THE SHADY UNITY SHOPPE TELETHON !!! I rest my case right down on this sofa with a nice cup of coffee...

Not-guilty! These creepy non-profits and their creepier tax dogging benefactors are exactly what I had in mind when I sold them as "a thousand points of light" bullcrap. This was part of Nordies plan to dwindle and drown good democratic government in a bathtub. The black lady is just in their for inclusionary sakes for crysssakes.
Speaking of Wendy and her "news" rag: Her latest editorial writer-wannabe (Ron Meyer Jr.) is posting his opinion pieces on the Internet -- on his own Web site -- for all to see. Where's Barry Cappello when you need him? Wasn't it his job to ensure that News-Press content was not available elsewhere for free?
