Linda and the DC Allegations: It Isn’t Her
According to the Harrisburg Forward blog, yesterdays suspicion of the Linda D Thompson arrested in DC in the early eighties is a different Linda D Thompson than the one who is running for Mayor of Harrisburg.
Regardless, it was a fair question to ask, all things considered.
The blog goes on to say this:
There is some additional verification underway, but we’re also inclined to believe the two Thompsons are different people. If our Linda D. Thompson was going to falsify her birthday, we think LT’s vanity would preclude choosing a fake birthday making her older than she is.
But really Linda, the threat of a libel suit? “It’s libelous and me and my lawyer are taking action.”
If the threat of litigation is going to be your response every time you’re asked an impertinent question, you’d better stop using “transparent” as an adjective.
Let us be VERY clear:
We never said you were the heroin-possessing Linda Thompson; we asked you if you were. That is the huge difference.
Quote from Mike ” Regardless, it was a fair question to ask, all things considered.” You wrote this concerning an arrest back in the 80s of some woman from freakn DC with Ms Thompson last name? So I guess ANY African American woman of man has done a crime in their past huh? Wow I really thought you were a fair type of guy. I friend of mine told me a while back ” Man don’t trust “them” because in the end they don’t & never will trust “us” ” I guess this does prove his point. I have my own blog & over the last few months I’ve been gather all the locale media’s info on the Mayoral race, from local news, blog ( like your’s ) an every thing in between. I’ll post my results in a week or 2. It’s amazing how one woman can cause the entire local media to come together for one cause: To stop her from getting the job. I thought your job was just to report but I guess FINDING any story to make her look bad will due. I don’t plan on voting for her or the him but this insane I did foward you blog site to her office maybe a lawsuit is needed against what you claimed she did. Oh I’m sorry claimed what someone else said she did but passing it along as fact.
Hey Dre-
Not sure where your sudden hostility is coming from, but please don’t make this a race issue.
Couple things for you to realize:
1. I voted for Obama.
2. I voted for Les Ford in the primary.
3. I hosted Susan and Gloria’s victory party two years ago after the election.
And finally-
4. I USED to be a BIG fan of Linda…until she started displaying signs of insanity-
Oh, you want proof? Here’s your proof.
