No I am not Martin Austermuhle. I am not Bfrank. I'm not anyone who Jonathan Rees claims I am. I haven't bothered to post here in a long time because there's no point. Jonathan Rees didn't even get a few dozen votes in the election and has become even more irrelevant than he was before the election. Virtually nobody reads DC Pages either.

If I were a betting person, I'd bet that Rees does not show up. He can't risk having to answer some very difficult questions about his resume, about his attacks on other candidates, about his contradictory statements all over the Internet. While Rees can try to deflect the truth using his numerous aliases on the Internet, it's another thing entirely to have to answer tough questions in person.

On his new website, www.rees2006.com, Jonathan Rees says: I have three adult children: Twin daughters Antonetta and Anita, and a son Jason all who currently live and work in different European countries. Yet in other places on the Internet Rees has also talked about his daughter Gabriella Rees: http://www.dcist.com/archives/2005/11/10/t...nners_los_1.php http://www.dcist.com/archives/2005/11/08/war_of_words_in.php

There is indeed something very fishy going on with Rees and the American Health Care Campaign: www.yourAHCC.org Look at the broader picture and Rees' actions are extremely troubling. First is the post made by Michael Griffiths, DDS, defending Jonathan Rees on the Tenleytown email list, but which was apparently written and posted by Jonathan Rees himself: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/tenleytown/message/3331 Second is the attack on Sam Brooks made by Jonathan Rees and posted on Dr. Michael Griffiths' company's website: http://dcdl.org/2005/11/05/bizarre-smear-campaign-in-ward-3 And here's an interesting coincidence. The URL of that website where Rees posted the attack on Brooks (now deleted by cached) is http://eds20018.com/page2.html. Dr Michael Griffiths' Yahoo ID --the one that Rees apparently forged-- is eds20018.

It's valuable to point out that Jonathan Rees has been consistently lying about his campaign, his background -- and everything else. Does it matter that Rees actually designed his website, but said that "Margaret Clay" designed it? Yes, it matters a lot: This is more proof of Rees' lies. He lied about who created his website. Rees lied about where he went to school. And let's not forget perhaps the biggest lie of them all: The lawsuit, USA and Rees v Daro Reality, in which Rees claimed to have been part of an anti-discrimination lawsuit. USA and Rees v Daro Reality never happened.

Equally interesting is the fact that the source code behind Jonathan Rees' website revealed that the site's author was not the world renowned web designer, Margaret Clay, but was, in fact Jonathan Rees. I have reprinted the original source code, which was captured and saved, below. Once Rees found out about this big oops in October 2005, he changed the "authorship" to pretend that Margaret Clay designed his site. <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <o:DocumentProperties> <o:Author>Jonathan R.
