Mr. French's Boss, Clackamas DA Answers E-mail....
Ms.
Thank you for taking the time to contact our office with your comments/concerns about Mr. French. I want to begin by saying that, while I do not personally share the opinions expressed by our prosecutor, all of our employees have the right to their own opinions on these subjects and to express those opinions in their own time. I believe that this is what happened here. Sometimes good people just honestly disagree. It is particularly difficult when it is on subjects that are so important to our nation and our community. Thanks again for contacting the Clackamas County District Attorney's Office.


John S. Foote

Subject: Mr. French Unfit to Serve Our Citizens...

French should resign immediately.

Alfred French, 58, a senior deputy district attorney, appeared in the recent ad by the Swiftboat Veterans for Truth and said: "I served with John Kerry. . . . He is lying about his record." French also signed a legal affadavit attesting to the claim.

3. Fuck him- I got it,too.
Here is my reply:

They may have the right to those opinions, but that right ends when they swear in an affidavit about something they have NO personal knowledge of.

Since you do not have the decency to confront this malfeasance yourself, I suppose it is incumbent on all of us who have a commitment to honesty and decency to take the matter up with the Oregon State Bar Association. Perhaps they will not take such a light view such a transgression as this.

4. Contact the Oregon State Bar Ethics Committee
also, is the DA an elected post? If so, get rid of him.
