Wednesday, January 21, 2009 Re:
Mr. Leon Panetta/CIA Director Appointment would pose a Threat to the
National Security Dear Senator Feinstein: I
write this letter to introduce myself and provide you with very grave
evidence in opposition to Mr. Leon Panetta being confirmed as Director
of the CIA. This
letter is not meant to be a complete dissertation as to why Mr. Panetta
must not be appointed but provides you with an audio file (at www.BadgerFlats.com/transcripts)
of a conversation between me and Mr. Panetta for openers. Audio recordings and
documents
show that as early as 2002, Mr. Panetta was made aware of rampant public
official corruption in Monterey County.
I assert that Mr. Panetta has aided Monterey public officials
(who would be commonly called his “cronies” by Americans) from being
held accountable. There
are a number reasons for Mr. Panetta’s lack of integrity in doing so
including the fact that his son Mr. Christopher Panetta is a member
of one of the law firms that is implicated in the public official
corruption and obstruction of justice against me. The
intent of this letter is to give you and all other senators notice that
complete documentation and evidence will be published in the upcoming
The Badger Flats Gazette edition entitled, “Panetta the
Illusionist”. You,
along with other senators and media, will have such edition delivered to
you hopefully no later than Friday, January 23rd, 2009. I
earnestly submit that if you proceed to confirm Mr. Panetta without
reviewing the evidence that is forthcoming to you, it would be a
dereliction of your duty to Americans. At
present and immediately available to you now is substantial
evidence/information at www.BadgerFlats.com contained within a
number of past issues of the Badger Flats Gazette, including
an edition titled The
Wormhole Preface,
(Pg. 42), published in Nov-Dec, 2008. The
Wormhole Preface provides supporting evidence of the Monterey County
public official corruption (“How to Fix Your Own Court Case Like
Pros”, pg 56). I
assert that Mr. Panetta regretfully has attempted to keep such
information concealed from the public, with the aid of MediaNews’
Monterey County Herald that Mr. Panetta also writes
for.
I
submit that if Mr. Panetta has, in fact, participated in such acts of
concealing Monterey public official corruption, or a reasonable person
could entertain the doubt that he is not a man of integrity based upon
his inaction and/or action in participating in a cover up of the overt
acts of public officials (See Jail
Time,
“Newspaper/Public official Corruption:
What Leon Panetta and the Monterey Herald Do not Want you To
know,” Pg. 1), then you and other senators must vote down his
nomination in order to maintain the public’s trust in its government,
and to safeguard our National Security.
(FBI
Website
concerning importance of addressing public official corruption). My
name is Gene Forte. I am a
past Candidate
for Governor of California in the Recall Race of 2003
and reside in Los Banos, California, within Merced County.
I am currently a writer/investigative reporter for the Badger
Flats Gazette. I
am also a victim and witness of crimes against me by public officials
emanating out of Monterey County, California, which is home to Mr.
Panetta, and The Panetta Institute.
I
am not an attorney but with the aid of my non-attorney wife have written
and won two Sixth District appeals reversing rulings of Monterey
Superior Court judges, Robert O’Farrell, and Terrance Duncan in two
separate civil lawsuits against attorney Mr. Larry Lichtenegger. Both
lawsuits allege that Mr. Lichtenegger committed legal malpractice by
colluding with opposing counsels and Judges O’Farrell and Duncan to
obstruct justice in my civil cases.
The
majority of my Badger Flats Gazette articles focus upon Monterey
Superior Court documents that provide overwhelming evidence that I have
been, and currently am a victim and witness of crimes against me by
Monterey County public officials (and other State officials, Mr. Bill
Lockyer, Governor Schwarzenegger, and even Chief Justice Ronald George).
As
an offer of proof of my credibility, I wish to point out that national
newspapers (McClatchy Newspapers) credited me and The Badger Flats
Gazette for exposing undisclosed loans received by Mayor Tommy Jones of
Los Banos from real estate developer, Mr. Greg Hostetler which violated
provisions of the Fair Political Practices Commission (“V”
is for Recall,
pg. 4, “National Humiliation”) Even
though I submit on the surface it sounds incredible, I respectfully
request that you afford me both open ears and eyes to the evidence that
I have that support what I say. The
fact that: a.
I have written two winning appeals without the aid of attorneys (Five
Card Badger, pg. 28, Figs. 37 & 38). b.
Defeated past Attorney General Bill Lockyer and his staff of
attorneys in a courtroom. c.
Retired Judge John Golden adjudicated (Five
Card Badger,
pg. 28, Figs. 35 & 36) that I have never filed any frivolous
documents, pleadings, slanderous documents, or committed any acts
whatsoever that would indicate that I could be determined to be a
California Vexatious Litigant. d.
Had a Federal judge state that they unequivocally knew that legal
documents written by me were done by an attorney (when they were not), I
submit require you to be open minded to what you are being presented and
not discount me as delusional. The
Panetta Institute’s website, as of December 27, 2004, stated under
“A Commitment to Public Service” that : “..we
seek to attract thoughtful men and women, equip them with the practical
skills of governance, and inspire them to a high standard of conduct in
public service.” Based
upon such public proclamation by the Panetta Institute, I had a
conversation with Mr. Panetta informing him that I had substantial
evidence of the denial of my basic rights as an American to seek redress
of grievance against Monterey County public officials by Monterey County
public officials and Monterey County judges that I alleged were caught
fixing a trial. I
request that you go to www.BadgerFlats.com/transcripts
and listen to the two legally recorded conversations (one with my side
only recorded) between myself and CIA Director Nominee, Mr. Leon Panetta
on October 10th,
2003 when I was a candidate for Governor of California. The
first conversation marked Exhibit “A” affirms that Mr. Panetta and I
did speak on October 10th,
2003. The second
conversation marked as Exhibit “B” affirms that Mr. Panetta was
informed that it was attorneys from the Fenton & Keller Law Firm
that I allege fixed the trial with the judges. Mr.
Panetta did not tell me at the time that his son, Mr. Christopher
Panetta, was an attorney for such law firm. But,
this certainly is not the total sum as to why I submit that the
appointment of Mr. Panetta to the director of the CIA would pose a
threat to the national security, but what follows does. The
evidence strongly suggests that Mr. Panetta has participated in
assisting Monterey County public officials to avoid having my grievance
brought forward against them by willfully closing his eyes to
substantial evidence presented to him by court filings.
He has ignored evidence that I am under attack as a citizen by
his local public official brethren. Further,
Mr. Panetta is aware that the newspaper he writes for, The Monterey
County Herald, printed a provable false statement of fact defaming me
publicly and blaming their “mistake” upon an alleged “error” in
court records. (The
Wormhole Preface,
starting on back page 56 and then continued on pgs. 42-55). I
respectfully request that you provide President Barrack Obama and Vice
President Biden a copy of this letter so that they are aware of our
communications, the present evidence being provided to you, and the
forthcoming additional evidence as to why Mr. Leon Panetta must not be
appointed to the Director of the CIA. A
copy of this letter is being posted on the website of BadgerFlats.com
and printed in the Badger Flats Gazette’s “Badger Bites.”
I
consider this communication to you to be a protected document afforded
all privileges to a citizen seeking redress of a grievance against
public officials, including Mr. Leon Panetta. It
is also important to bring your attention to the article entitled Merced
Superior Court vs. Monterey County Good Ol Boys (The Wormhole Preface,
Pg. 1). The highly unusual
blanket disqualification by the Merced Superior Court Bench in two of my
litigations was triggered by my requesting they address the Monterey
public official corruption. Evidence
of a cover up of the Monterey public official corruption which Mr.
Panetta was made aware implicates Chief Justice Ronald George.
It has is spreading like a cancer If
you have any questions, please feel free to call and thank you for your
anticipated attention to this matter. As
a formality, I also ask that you confirm to me that you have received
this document within the next 24 hours of its transmittal to you. Thank you. Sincerely, Gene Forte
