In his latest article, Philip R. Klein engages in more of the "same old think, over and over and over again:"
Hello Dr. Fiddle Faddle - our new name for Dr. Klem - the doctor that put his hands down little girls pants and played with their vaginas.
I've previously addressed this issue here, here, and here. Little brother Peter was so incensed that I questioned Philip's reckless disregard for the truth that he began leaving comments to me, where he referred to me as Dr. Klem. I documented that here. But perhaps the Klein brothers know more about incest than I.
Philip's bottom line:
It is a sad day for the kids in our opinion.
When Philip had his short-lived radio talk show early Saturday mornings, listeners could hear him salivating as he made up imaginary details about Dr. Klem's sins. If Philip is truly interested in "the kids," his speculative and graphic detail is unwarranted and a true disservice to the victims. With idiots like Philip R. Klein offering unsolicited and unsubstantiated opinions on what may or may not have occurred, most readers will understand why the victims were reluctant to testify in court.
Since both Jefferson and Harris Counties came to the conclusions, I suspect there is more here than meets the eye. Readers will remember that the family is quite divided over this issue, and the girl's own grandfather tried to force them to leave his church. Since Philip failed to address the civil lawsuit that is still pending, Klein is clueless about the real issues here.

In his article on Thurman Bartie and his new job as a substitute teacher, Philip R. Klein quoted an anonymous source, who wrongfully alleged:
"They hired that man. He abused our kids when he was judge and got fired. The school board hired him. I am sick over it," said the source.
Those "kids" in Bartie's case were Manya and Matya Bush, who appeared before Bartie on a truancy charge with their mother, Tammie. Although in high school, Matya apparently already had a daughter, Colitha. The family later received more publicity, when Manya and Matya's younger brother, Joshua, was shot in the head while robbing a convenience store in Port Arthur.
During the robbery, Joshua tried to shoot a businessman, Alan Olive, who returned fire and shot Bush in the head. Bush initially claimed he had been shot accidentally by a friend and refused to have the bullet removed from his head, since it would have proven his involvement in the robbery.
Bush later admitted involvement, but denied being the shooter. His mother Tammie said:
"'We know he's not a criminal,' she said. 'He's a good kid.'"
While Bartie may have indeed have some problems that would preclude him from serving as an substitute teacher, it's interesting to note Philip Klein, as a self-proclaimed "citizen journalist." regularly manifests a reckless disregard for the truth.
Did I mention that Philip is a self-admitted bigamist? From his latest article this afternoon:
And back to our beautiful wife. Maybe he can play fiddle faddle with her?
"Our beautiful wife?"

In today's Top Story on the Southeast Texas Political Review, Philip R. Klein lapses into the "same old think, over and over and over again:"
And the beat goes on in Port Arthur, Texas. Dysfunction breeds dysfunction. You can spend millions and billions and you still have Port Arthur, Texas. And the money will run dry one day - and Port Arthur will drop off the map.
As evidence, Philip provides astounding news: Former Justice of the Peace Thurman Bartee is working as a substitute teacher:
We contacted our source at the PAISD that we use when things get heated up....and well....they did not want to talk other than to confirm that Bartee was employed. In fact, nobody would talk to us - except a parent that called into the Review.
"They hired that man. He abused our kids when he was judge and got fired. The school board hired him. I am sick over it," said the source.
Compare Philip's big story of Thurman Bartee's new job with the headline story in today's Beaumont Enterprise:
Obama's stimulus bill should impact local businesses, but owners are wondering how
By HEATHER NOLAN
March, 8, 2009
President Barack Obama has assured small businesses that they will benefit from $787 billion stimulus bill, but local business owners said they are unsure exactly what is in it for them.
Cara Kinchen, an owner of GiGi's, A Children's Boutique, on Dowlen Road, is among a number of local business owners waiting to see how the stimulus bill will affect her store.
"I don't know if it will help us directly, but I'm hoping it has an overall good effect on the economy," she said. "(I hope) it puts more money in people's pockets and increases their spending."
Henry Venta, Lamar University's college of business dean, said if the Recovery Act works the way it is supposed to, every business in the country should benefit, whether it's directly or indirectly.
"The whole idea of the stimulus is to get money in people's hands quickly, and that tends to help small businesses," Venta said. "The theory is that if you get money in people's hands, then it should pump up the economy, and small business is such an important part of the economy."
Oh look! Quotes that are actually attributed to someone!

Philip R. Klein's latest article fails to deliver on his promise from yesterday's posting:
Come ride with guys like us - we will take you to stories - like one we will post tomorrow that will blow your head off. "Where did he get that?" - you may ask. People call us and talk to us - more than they will ever talk to you.
Phillip's big story:
Sources at the Port of Beaumont tell the Southeast Texas Political Review this week that the Jefferson County Navy has "not moved in weeks" from its berth at the Port of Beaumont. Meaning - the boats are sitting in the water doing nothing.
More of Philip's "same old think, over and over and over again." I've already covered this issue here, here, here, here, and here. Any questions why Philip's poll has generated less than 40 votes in two weeks?
Got anything new, Philip?
"I will assign one person from my office for an entire month to look into every aspect of their lives. And I will post it."
Elapsed time since Philip R. Klein promised to reveal the identity of Sam the Eagle:
