COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED TO A BETTER PERSON!

COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED TO A BETTER PERSON!

Well ... I won't even pretend that we at the Neal Boortz Show haven't enjoyed this story immensely. Every once in a while it seems that someone gets exactly what's coming to them, and this is what happened to Michael Duga.

Who is Michael Duga? Perhaps you remember a few weeks ago when we did a Boortz Power Lunch to benefit the Wounded Warrior Project. We really did want former Georgia Senator and wounded Vietnam veteran Max Cleland on the air .. not to talk about politics, but to talk about our wounded soldiers from the combat theatres in Iraq and Afghanistan. That's where we ran into Michael Duga. Duga was Cleland's "chief of staff." From the very first phone call he received from Belinda he was abusive and, for lack of a better word, just plain nasty. Due to his abuse of Belinda we made the decision to cancel any interview with Cleland on the air. -- Neal Boortz _______________________

Police this week are continuing their investigation into a Florida man believed to be the former chief of staff for a U.S. senator who crashed the fundraiser of Presidential candidate John Edwards in Chilmark on Friday by passing himself off as a campaign official.

Snip

Mr. Duga is currently being held in the Edgartown house of correction.

I think the Neil Boortz part is just an aside. The article is about the guy Neil is referring to.

He sounds like a complete loon. How was he working for Cleland to begin with? I wouldn’t want him within 100 feet of me.

Most of the posting seems to come from here: http://boortz.com/nuze/index.html; the last sentence appears at the linked site.

I see that I didn't answer your question.

Given Cleland's injuries, he needs someone to attend to his most personal needs.

Is he still working for Cleland? Is Cleland backing a different candidate and interested in sabotaging Edwards’ campaign?

Edgartown, eh? perhaps in the Edward Kennedy Memorial Cell? Oh, wait, they decided not to hold Fat Ted for leaving the scene, vehicular homicide, etc. I guess that cell stayed empty.
