Feinstein's War-Profiteering & Todd Chretien
Chretien silent on Feinstein/Blum war-profiteering
Dianne Feinstein and Richard Blum (her husband) are war profiteers. (Please see Center for Public Integrity). Back in March of this year I contacted Todd Chretien and asked him why there was absolutely no information about Feinstein's war-profiteering on his website. His assistant wrote back saying they were just getting their website started and they would be sure to put that on there. They never did. I even provided them two links to credible articles by columnist Joshua Frank on this subject. To this day, there is not a word about Feinstein's war-profiteering nor is there any information about Feinstein's repugnant record in Congress on Chretien's website. Not even something as easy to do as putting links to Joshua Frank's articles. I don't get it. Is Chretien serious or not with his "challenge" campaign to Feinstein? In my opinion, he's not. Othewise, he would have ALL of this information on his website if he were serious about taking on this despicable woman (who in my opinion belongs in a trash bin). One would think that on his website that Chretien would state what he would have done differently than Feinstein (in examining her record). That's not there either. WHY? One wonders if someone in Chretien's family is also a war-profiteer and that's why he is silent on Feinstein's war profiteering. I've not heard any of his speeches---since he has already turned me off by his wet-noodle approach to Feinstein---but for some of you who have heard Chretien speak, has he mentioned ANYTHING about any of this in his speeches?
The fact that this woman is an Afghanistan and Iraq war-profiteer is MAJOR stuff. How could a credible challenge candidate not want to educate the public about this on their website and in their speeches? This stuff should be all over his website. Whenever he mentions Feinstein he should refer to her as "War-Profiteer Feinstein." Instead, Chretien gives this piece of trash respect by referring to her as "Senator Feinstein." UGH. The woman deserves NO respect.
Please contact Chretien and ask why he is silent on Feinstein's war-profiteering (AND her repugnant record...assuming that he's not talking about that either in his speeches). Thank you.

Joshua Frank, an independent journalist, has a link to Chretien's campaign on his blog, and has yet to say anything negative about Chretien to my knowledge.

you wrote that Todd Chretien is outspoken about Feinstein's many problems-- including her family's war-profiteering;
how do you know that? what do you base that on? have you been to any of his rallies? heard him speak? like the other poster i haven't heard any of his speeches. i was just at his website and the other person is correct. there's nothing there about feinstein's war profiteering or her record. i agree that's odd. something doesn't feel right about that.

Different Josh that posted that... I support Todd.

Joshua, if you happen to read this: Since you know Todd. why don't you ask him WHY he doesn't put this information about the war-profiteer and her record on his website? I'd love to know why. In my opinion, any candidate who wanted to appear credible would do so. Thank you.
