The incumbent District 3 San Luis Obispo County supervisor is expected to be a no-show at the year’s first debate between candidates seeking a seat on the board of supervisors. Supervisor Adam Hill says the person sponsoring the debate is excessively partisan and makes personal attacks.

Integrity SLO, a political committee run by San Luis Obispo activist Kevin Rice, is hosting a Lincoln-Douglas-style debate in which there will be no moderator. In its 460 filing, Integrity SLO says it opposes Adam Hill for Supervisor 2012.

The debate is scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday at the Avila Beach Community Center.

Each of the three candidates in the District 3 race is invited to participate. The candidates are Hill, San Luis Obispo Councilman Dan Carpenter and former Grover Beach Mayor Debbie Peterson.

Both Carpenter and Peterson are expected to attend the debate.

Hill’s campaign issued a press release to favored media saying the supervisor would not attend. Neither Rice, nor CalCoastNews received the statement.

“While Supervisor Adam Hill enjoys a robust discussion about the issues, the “free for all” format combined with excessive partisanship and personal attacks demonstrated by Mr. Rice in the past aren’t conducive to creating an environment in which a meaningful discussion can be had,” Hill’s campaign stated.

The news release also said Hill’s campaign strives to keep the election focused on issues and accomplishments, not “unsubstantiated smears and gotcha moments rigged by opponents.”

Rice stated Hill has not formally declined to attend the debate.

“A false rumor alleges one candidate has formally declined to appear,” the Integrity SLO website states. “Integrity SLO has received no such communication and is confident all three candidates desire to meet the public.”

Doors will open Thursday at 6:30 p.m. The Avila Beach Community Center is located at 191 San Miguel Street.

Lets just hope the voters in District 3 “skip” voting for Mr, AxxHxxx.


If General George Patton were alive today and he had the opportunity to meet Adam…this would no doubt be the outcome….

All..Don`t forget to attend what is being called the Deebate.


Speaking of the shady Team Adam Hill, what is going on with the Tenborg vs CCN law suit? Seems like with all of the evidence of Charles Tenborg illegally dumping Diablo Canyon’s hazardous waste at Cold Canyon Landfill floating around, James Wagstaffe of Kerr Wagstaffe would figure out that he has been had.

Yeah but, Waggie got his gangsta’ name from Adam in a private ceremony for taking this one for the Team. If you are good homies with Wagstaffe, you can now call him “Slim Shady.”


Here is video of the ceremony…

On a campaign bound for nowhere

Adam became the gambler

He was too tired to sleep

So he and Dee took turns a-starin’

Out the window at the darkness

The boredom overtook us, he began to speak


He said, “Dee, I’ve made a life

Out of bullying people’s lives

Knowing’ what they’re think’n

By the way they held their eyes

So if you don’t mind me sayin’

I’ve become a chicken shit

For a taste of your whiskey

I’ll give you some advice”


So Dee handed him his bottle

And he drank down his last swallow

Then he bummed a cigarette

And asked her for a light

And the night got deathly quiet

And his faced lost all expression

She said, “If you’re gonna play the game, boy

You gotta learn to play it right


You’ve got to know when to hold ’em

Know when to fold ’em

Know when to walk away

Know when to run

You never count your money

When you’re sittin’ at the table

There’ll be time enough for countin’

When the dealin’s done


Every gambler knows

That the secret to survivin’

Is knowin’ what to throw away

And knowin’ what to keep

‘Cause every hand’s a winner

And every hand’s a loser

And the best that you can hope for

Is to die in your sleep”


And when he finished speakin’

He turned back toward Dee

Crushed out his cigarette

And faded off to sleep

And somewhere in the darkness

The gambler he broke even

And in his final words

I found an ace that I could not keep


You’ve got to know when to hold ’em

Know when to fold ’em

Know when to walk away

And know when to run

You never count your voters

When you’re sittin’ at the table

There’ll be time enough for countin’

When the voting is done


You’ve got to know when to hold ’em

(When to hold ’em)

Know when to fold ’em

(When to fold ’em)

Know when to walk away

And know when to run

You never count your votes

When you’re sittin’ at the table

There’ll be time enough for countin’

When the voteing’s done
