		<description><![CDATA[At least he has a &quot;wife&quot; as in &quot;female&quot; 

Bennie on the other hand will have to rent a dyke friend if he chooses to go into politics.  Lately, Bennie (armchair political commentary and Demo Die Hard) has been filing paperwork to be appointed to the Santa Monica City Planning Commission.

Whats the matter Bennie?  You cannot run in an election or are you too cheap to pay for the campaign?  Nevertheless, you have no big money backing you to run for anything and never will.  As no one that matters really cares.

What I like to see is you lose and how you throw your tantrums and then the cutsy name calling starts.  High moral character indeed, you cannot even lose gracefully and try to spin your losses as some sort of victory.

Your only success is conning child traffickers out of $150K in legal fees to absolutely deliver nothing except name calling.  I can&#039;t wait to see you shake and shiver at your next bogus deposition or how about that sneaky way you tried to have the session video taped?  That went over like a fart in church didn&#039;t it bozo?

I wish I had a video of peace officers high fiving me after I told them you were upset like a little girl because some big bad woman was going to kick your ass.  It is too much fun watching you squirm like a coward that you are then aligning yourself with a shadowy group that is under FBI invesigation because you just wanted to always appear that you are winning something.

See you in the trenches, I just hope that Obama wins I hate to hear a whole year of you crying, melting down and throwing hissie fits over your love Obummer.  

Seriously, good luck with Sarah Gorman the planning commissioner of Santa Monica.  I have some wealthy friends that are developers in that neck of the woods, they would love to have a little bitch like you to slap around.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey Bennet at least he has a &quot;wife&quot; 

he he as in female anyway.  Although if you have any aspirations for poltics you might want to get married for a nice image or at least have one of your female bull dyke friends around.  

On second thought you could never win an election, you are an arm chair politician that hopes to get appointed to the Santa Monica City Planning commission.  That my friend will never happen.  What are you scared to actually run against someone or are you too cheap to pay for the campaign fees?--so you try for some silly appointed position to springboard yourself.  Good luck.

You have so many enemies my little friend, you will never make it to the big time.

You blazing idiot, spam is tried in small claims court because of the win being so small is it not capped at $7,500?.  You are so unhappy with losing you cannot even lose gracefully.

You go tit for tat over small fries and that and the fact you are disorganized with paperwork will keep you from every being famous.  Your online slander and name calling is amusing but not half as good as my acid mouth and wit.

If you ever have the guts to spar with me one on one, I would love to take you up on it.  You would be intellectually unarmed and left shaking like in your deposition.  So frustrated because you didn&#039;t get your way that some &quot;Defendant&quot; outsmarted you and out manuvered you and your video taping of your star stuttering moment of shame. (or is it a lisp?)

I just wish I had the video of peace officers high fiving me after they found out that you cried wolf that some women was going to beat you up.  Such a little girl you are Bennie.  

You might as well pack up and leave California, all the good guys are taken.  Besides they like em younger and more blond.

Just saying....]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Brian;
No, in fact Dan Balsam just had the Supreme Court rule in his favor that Trancos case could not be appealed and it stands on it&#039;s ruling that SPAM is illegal and annoying (kind of like your pal Bennie)

Sure Sure &quot;Brian&quot; you are a freind of Bennies&#039; wait till you don&#039;t agree with him or Bennie has a hissie fit over losing yet another case...he will start with his cutsy little name calling.
For Dan he has labeled him &quot;Spamulance Chaser&quot; and for others he files fake police reports and tries to have them prosecuted but fails.  
Bennies motions and paper work is sloppy and littered with conjucture upon conjucture.  

Here is the victory announcement- eat your poor little heart out Bennie.  You have no moral character when you decide to represent a child trafficker and con her out of $150K in legal fees only to deliver NOTHING but labels and name calling of the defendant.

Bennie is a sleazeball
Since you have written in the past on issues regarding spamming, I wanted to make you aware of some great news. The United States Supreme Court declined to hear a challenge to a California appellate court ruling in Balsam v. Trancos Inc., which ruled that email marketing company Trancos Inc. violated the state’s anti-spamming law. This ends the company’s attempt to argue the statute was preempted by federal law and further empowers people to protect their inboxes from those who deliberately falsify email headers with intent to mislead or hide from complaints against them. The Balsam v. Trancos case is the most recent of several published opinions I have achieved on behalf of email recipients seeking to have spammers comply with current law. *The United States Supreme Court designation for denial of the petition of certiorari is Trancos Inc. v. Daniel L. Balsam, case number 12-237 (October 29, 2012). The original appellate court decision is Balsam v. Trancos Inc. (2012) 203 Cal. App. 4th 1083. http://scholar.google.com/scholar_case?case=4942428848946702426&amp;q=balsam+v.+trancos&amp;hl=en&amp;as_sdt=2,5 --]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From what I understand it is Bennie that abuses small claims court by trying to debate, defend his clients.  On more than one occasion has been told by Small Claims Court judges to back off and follow rules of procedure which apparently Bennie has a problem with. Even crossing the line and trying to approach the bench without permission.  

Bennie has annoyed many judges with his frivilous motions and using himself as a &quot;witness&quot; for his paying clients.  No bias there at all - right?

Bennie will go down as legendary alright, but probably not in the way he would like.  If Obama loses this year, he will cry his eyes out.  He only sees it his way and the ways of the liberal Democrats but then becomes an abuser of human rights trying to squash free speech when it suits his own needs.

Bennie and the jets, go home- Rhode Island is calling you.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;on the other hand, a high power attorney and award winning journalist has positioned himself against Balsam, claiming that his lawsuits are only a money-making technique and an abuse of the California small claims laws&quot;

High powered attorney and award winning? Sounds like the writer of this article is a victim of Kelley&#039;s own marketing machine (himself) Kelley just loves to toot his own horn and write for freebie rags like Huffington Blog, Santa Monica Free Press and lets not forget his FREE radio blog.  
&quot;Bennie&quot; has even hired himself an agent in the hopes he can become another &quot;celeb Attorney&quot; - unfortunately he just doesn&#039;t have the handsome looks.  The only one that wants to hear or see &quot;Bennie&quot; is Bennie himself or perhaps his little white therapy dog, that loves him despite all of his flaws.

One of Bennie&#039;s low down tricks is to go after organizations or people he feels are responsible for online &quot;crimes&quot; (he loves to label people) then when they are unable to be located or don&#039;t respond to his horrid written complaints.  Bennie moves to file a default judgment against unsuspecting victims/defendants that are forced to defend themselves against Bennie&#039;s cheap little tactics.

I direct this author or law students to do a search on Bennie&#039;s poorly written Complaints and note his magical words like &quot;on information and belief&quot; and other legal jargon that simply is saying &quot;I am guessing and don&#039;t have a clue&quot;  and about money......Bennie loves to latch on to big paying clients until he exhausts all of their money and options then he goes for his name calling and other stupid tricks.
I direct you all to pull up Global Wide Media, Inc., vs. Richard Braun, UOPEN, Inc et al.

More of this tricks is failed ex parte applications that are getting to be a laughing stock of every reasonable judge.  Maybe Value Click got tired of being a sucker client and moved on to more effective means.
