Measure H
OC Register Urges Voters to Reject Takeover in CUSD
Oct 30, 2010 Filed in: Elections
Today’s
excellent editorial in the OC Register confirms:
• The teachers union and their so-called “Children First” group have now spent more than $350,000 since September 30th trying to buy control of CUSD – $67,000 more this week alone – this is an obscene amount of money for a local school board election!
• The powerful teachers union is outspending the conservative Reform Trustee incumbents more than a 16 to 1 margin!
• The Register found the Teachers Union had even this month begun funneling thousands into a newly formed Political Action Committee – an obvious effort to hide from voters and the press the unprecedented union spending in CUSD.
• Voters have a very simple choice -- They can continue to support the conservative incumbents and the policies they promote, or they can choose the candidates and positions that are endorsed and promoted by the teachers union.
Choose the conservative incumbents:
• VOTE NO on the Union’s Recall of Winsten & Lopez Maddox• VOTE NO on the Union’s Measure H• RE-ELECT THE “ABC TRUSTEES” (Addonizio, Bryson & Christensen)

"Look For The Union Label"
Oct 29, 2010 Filed in: Elections
Some CUSD
voters have received the following
mailer from the California Taxpayer
Advocate asking voters to stop
the union takeover of our school district by
voting “NO” on Measure H, “NO” on the Recall of
Reform Trustees Ken Lopez Maddox and Mike Winsten,
and by Re-Electing the incumbent “ABC” Reform
Trustees (Ellen Addonizio, Anna Bryson and Larry
Christensen). The mailer also praises the
incumbent Reform Trustees for the numerous
accomplishments they have made for the benefit of
students, parents and taxpayers of CUSD.

"Stop Union Power Grab in Capo Unified"
Oct 28, 2010 Filed in: Elections
Today, “ABC”
Reform Slate Trustee Anna Bryson published a
new political advertisement
in The
Orange County Register, reminding voters about the
accomplishments of the incumbent CUSD Reform
Trustees on behalf of students, parents and
taxpayers, and debunking some of the false claims
being circulated by the teachers union and their
so-called “Children First” front group who are
currently trying to take control of the district
by unseating the Reform Trustees.

Erin Kutnick talks about manipulating teachers at Capo Unified
Arrogant,
condescending and manipulative to a fault...the
teacher union’s so-called “Children First” group
leader Erin Kutnick just being herself.
C-R-E-E-P-Y...and just in time for Halloween! We
wonder how many union folks are aware that, in
Kutnick’s mind, they are merely pawns in her grand
Recall-Measure H scam. We remember how Kutnick
arrogantly proposed to deny voters a say on a
proposal to take away their right to vote for six of
their seven trustees by turning the decision over to
her Old Guard buddies and their friends on a county
committee and bypassing the voters entirely! Thank
goodness the incumbent Reform Trustees protected the
voters and put a stop to this. Now, listen as this
little narcissist explains how union members need to
be manipulated to act against their will to become
part of “the (translated “her”) solution.” Kutnick’s
corrupt Old Guard mentor, former Fleming trustee
Marlene Draper, must be mighty proud.
Alpay False and Misleading - He IS the union candidate...
This guy
can’t talk for two minutes without repeatedly
stretching the truth. Watch closely...Alpay is so
steeped in union talking points, he can’t help but
humiliate himself. Of course, as a lawyer he must
know something about telling “the truth, THE WHOLE
TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH.” Somehow, this
noble concept has escaped this pitiful, stealth union
candidate. Oh, that’s right, this is a political
campaign, we’re just the public and this shyster’s
not under oath. What in the world were we thinking?
Never mind.
An Appeal From Anna Bryson
Oct 16, 2010 Filed in: Elections

Anna Bryson
Candidate for Trustee Area 4
Capistrano Unified School District
The ballot for the upcoming November elections will be crowded with important choices. If you are a taxpayer with children or grandchildren in the Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD), if you believe we must provide the best possible public education possible within our means, and if you agree that a well-educated workforce will benefit everyone in our area, I wanted to make sure you are aware of a key race.
I’m running for re-election to the CUSD Board of Education, where I’ve served for the past four years as trustee and president. During that time, we boosted academic achievement to the highest level in the state among large districts, we introduced many new programs that included special training for teachers at schools that needed to improve performance, and we brought a financial budget that was running at a deficit back into balance.

"Reality check for PTA parents"
Oct 11, 2010 Filed in: Elections
The reform
supporters at CapoKidsFirst have posted
“Reality Check for PTA
Parents” on
YouTube. It’s a video that exposes more of the
union lies being spread about the Reform Trustees
and Measure H by teachers and members of the PTA
-- another reminder to Vote NO on the Recall and
Vote NO on Measure H.
Video Exposes the Union Threat to Our School District
Oct 09, 2010 Filed in: Elections
Here’s
another video posted on YouTube by the reform
supporters at CapoKidsFirst. "CUSD Teachers Union NO on H and NO on
Recall”
exposes the dogmatic mindset of the union members
in CUSD who are blindly following the dishonest
leaders of the CUEA and the CSEA as they
disrespect and deceive students, parents and
taxpayers, and attempt to derail positive district
reforms that are long-overdue.
"Fem-Bot Campaign Melts Down"
The reform
supporters at CapoKidsFirst have posted
"Fem-Bot Campaign
Meltdown" on
YouTube. It’s a new 3 1/2 minute video that
exposes the dishonest
Union-Wolves-in-Republican-Clothing strategy the
CUEA and the CSEA are using to deceive the voters
in their current door-to-door campaign. The video
depicts the shallow, deceitful campaign being
waged by these union-talking-point lemmings. Take
a look, it's funny.
