KEEP CORRUPTION 
CORPS
As Sun City Anthem 
volunteers continue to rack up name after name on the Recall petitions, 
desperation from "the political machine" has now hit all time panic 
buttons....and their reactions have gone into 
overdrive. 
Within the past few days, 
we've witnessed...
 ... a Sun City Anthem 
Treasurer send out a mass email condemning the contents of the Recall petition, 
which we believe violated NRS regulations, and to 
which he has remained silent as to the valid questions posed 
by a Sun City Anthem resident.
... a paid Sun City 
Anthem employee send ILLEGAL emails to Clubs  (on company time we were paying her 
salary...3:26pm on a Thursday afternoon), which clearly violated Sun City 
Anthem rules.
...and now within a few 
short hours, not one, but SIX articles from Mr. 
Barnum calling for an army of "behind the scenes" volunteers to fight "the 
evils" of those who support the Recall efforts, one of which is now some kind 
of "official group" called "Oscar", with former 
Director Carl Weinstein's words of wisdom, leading 
the charge in its support.
As to why this army 
should be organized?
"to 
support the sensible, qualified Board candidates they have helped put in office 
over the years".
Yeah, that's what he 
said, but he forgot to add a few things about those "qualified candidates", so let's mention some of their 
"merits" to enhance his cause:
5 losing restaurants that 
included contracting with:
a.  the wife of a guy who robbed 8 Las Vegas banks and 
served 6 years in the "big house".
b. a guy who had a $150,000 civil judgment against him that 
had yet been unpaid to the widow of a man he apparently cheated and was 
eventually caught walking out the back door of Anthem Center with Sun City 
Anthem property.
c. a guy who never paid his rent or utilities yet was 
granted $40,000 in association loans at below prime which eventually defaulted 
and YOU AND I HAD TO EAT.
d. a guy whose tattoos created a "fine dining atmosphere" 
who now runs a Las Vegas sandwich shop.
Then 
there was the "success" of having the IRS attempt to fine Sun City Anthem 
$1,500,000 because of the "qualified 
candidates" refusal to refund excess dues assessments to unit 
owners....only to look at the outcome as a "success" paying "merely" $150,000 in 
fines, plus legal and accounting fees, when nothing should have been paid at 
all.
Of course, making Darcy Spears HOA Hall of Shame must be included in 
that list of "qualified candidates" too, with 
Barnum's wife refusing to open a door or return Ms. Spears phone 
calls.
And finally, the crowning jewel and epitome of 
 "qualified candidates", the Liberty Center which, because of "qualified experienced 
leadership", used buckets to solve a rain problem that to date has cost unit 
owners $2,000,000 and resulted in a substantial lawsuit against a builder 
with a war chest that makes the Sun City Anthem 
treasury look like pocket change.
Yes indeed, these deeds 
need to be praised, according to Mr. Barnum.
...and so, they 
apparently will, as this questionable "army" of those who supported those "qualified candidates" will rise up, and raid our 
neighborhoods asking you to support these noble 
accomplishments.
OK--now, let's get 
real.
Just who out there really 
believes that "within a short 2 hours" of 
soliciting those who oppose the removal election, "responses" were "well beyond 
anything" what he could have imagined...
...on 
a Friday night after 5:00pm ?
So many... that as of 
this writing... this "noble calling" has attracted  former Board Director,  Carl Weinstein...
...to voice support; the guy 
who finished last, narrowly losing his Board seat to the man of esteem 
and #1 honoree on the Recall Petition, Rex 
Weddle...
...who finished 4th out of 5 candidates in the last election, 
a mandate so great, that he was chosen to remain the association president by 
three of the other Recall "honorees" (Nissen, Waterhouse, 
Burch),  and our distinguished Treasurer, Forrest 
Quinn, the author of the recent eblast sent to all members of the Sun 
City Anthem community intending to interfere with the recall 
effort.
The key to his statement 
is a corrupt system, as well as, the credibility of 
a guy fighting for life, while drowning in their own sea of 
corruption.
Is this the first time 
Barnum has "sold a bill of goods" to his readers?
There are too many to 
mention, but perhaps this one might assist his apparent "army" as they cruise 
the "hoods" damning the Recall effort.
A few years back he ran 
this unsuccessful scam on Sun 
City Anthem.
He decided, in his typical character assassinating manner, to 
eliminate his adversary,  Guardianship 
champion, Rana 
Goodman. 
He would concoct a story about the reasons she not 
be reappointed to the Henderson "Senior Citizen's Advisory 
Commission", stating the "community was outraged" and a mass petition drive had 
been underway to stop her reappointment...
...but what he didn't bank on, was something called "The Freedom of Information Act" which  allowed the release 
of those who signed that petition showing the magnitude of that "outrage".  
For those who weren't 
here at that time, there were 8-9 signers,  all of 
which were close friends of Mr. Barnum, one of which stated her name was forged 
by her husband.
The result of that 
"outrage"...SCAM ?
Ms. Goodman was 
subsequently reappointed to the position.
And finally, we have 
saved the best for last.
In order to commence this 
"army"  to protect those "qualified candidates", 
HE WANTS YOUR MONEY as well 
!
Oh well, desperate times 
for those who advocate the continuing of corruption, do desperate 
things...
...and this latest move, 
tops them all !
So...if or when you have one of his "army" stop you or 
possibly send you a letter asking if you wish to endorse the "qualified candidates" who were responsible for all of the 
above...
...have this article with you and run down the list of their 
"remarkable" accomplishments as well as the credibility of the individual who 
has been their spokesperson.
Don't forget to ask 
them...
if they 
have...
...a 
business license...
...two security guards... 
...an 
association required production company...
...insurance...
...and 
...an online ticket fee...
... to obtain the funds they seek.
Hopefully they'll be more 
than glad to oblige these requests since those they wish to 
retain, had no problem demanding these items from 
Clubs.
You can also give them 
cash, but we suggest  you donate this kind...
It's acceptable currency 
for...
And if and when you do 
all the things...
My guess is that for the 
first time, you'll see a human being actually sprout a tail and leave your front 
door with it dangling between their legs.
Our question to you is 
simply...
Should this continue?  
If not, the decision to 
sign the Recall petitions should be a "no brainer".
Let us know if you need one to sign and if you'll ask you neighbors to sign it as well.
Not 
signing it means...YOU 
SUPPORT CONTINUING CORRUPTION.

Berman claims he has all these people who want to "sign" the alternate view being against the recall, but he doesn't have many people commenting in the "comments" section.
Didja' see it?
So why no comments?
If all those friends are not commenting, where are they?
I'd expect that if they are reading the blog, they'd comment on the blog if nothing else but for convenience.
Is he lying?
He's run scams like this before, not just the one against Rana Goodman.
Remember the Woodchips scam in which he blamed that club for a man's suicide...when 2 of their officers, whom he opposed, ran for the Board?
He even attempted to get the widow to seek legal counsel to sue the Club.
...to merely win a Homeowners Association election.
So I see that the 'Fake Newser' has made this statement referring to those dedicated volunteers assisting the Recall effort:
"What you have right now is a bunch of "contact people" who are listed with first names and last-name initials only, as if they are afraid to come out into the sunshine."
Yet where are his?
Obviously barking at a full moon since those masses were so enamored after 5:00pm on a Friday night.
Don't underestimate the opponent. They are trying to change the conversation. A vigorous attempt is being made to make the issue Self-Management. That is not the problem. Self-management can work to everyone's benefit. The issue is the lack of Governance by the Board of Directors and the uncontrolled spending on salaries approved by the Board, as well as the General Manager being empowered to take on responsibilities that belong to the Board. Yet, the Board refuses to accept their duties.
Changing the direction of an argument is a common way to cheat in a debate.
