So, how many of you got an email from Sgt. John Delmonico from the address [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The Police Federation has shown its colors, once again getting into the sleaziest of Minneapolis politics to trash Rybak by sending out SPAM vilifying him signed by:

"This literature is an independent expenditure and was not and has not been authorized by any candidate nor has it been prepared with the consent of, in cooperation or concert with, or at the request or suggestion any candidate. Prepared and paid for by the Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis Contingency Fund, Lyall Delaney, treasurer, 1811 University Ave. NE; Minneapolis, MN 55418"

Since the list doesn't support attachments, I can't include the html-based email for all who are curious to see.

I don't give a hoot about Rybak. He and McLaughlin are two peas in a pod. But I do care when the police start SPAMMING citizens and getting this downright slimy. It is no wonder that the police have a terrible reputation in the community. There's lots of time for plotting and scheming to tank a political candidate, but there's apparently too little time and manpower to investigate crimes or arrive at a call in time to do anything.

Shame, shame, shame, Delmonico and Delaney and the rest of you who took part in this.

Incidentally, they're using Lyris (lyris.com through its server advocacyinc.lyris.net), a spam organization that calls itself an "opt-in mail marketer". Opt-in? Nobody who got this spam opted in. Isn't it time that the Minneapolis Police as a group started doing their jobs instead of this stuff?
