Excerpted from the website:
- Democracy for Oregon is a coalition of concern citizen activists inspired by the Dean for America campaign to take our country back from the radical right. Our mission is to help end corporate dominance of government and to restore and foster citizen ownership of and involvement in our democracy. We seek to inspire, inform and connect progressive Oregonians to further these goals.
AddressDefunct website started by Ross but spun as grass roots, even though at most its active members were barely more than 20. DFO was a spinoff of Howard Dean's Democracy for America network, proving exactly how gullible the extreme left could be by letting anyone join to exploit DFA. Her first and arguably successful attempt to build a cult army gang; it appears to be where Ross started working with Richard Frager. It was hosted by what sounds like a marketing firm:
- 8830 SW Woodside Dr
- Portland OR 97225 US
© 2004-5 Democracy for OregonRoss is careful to distance herself from any candidate or campaign; she's not so careful to admit she owns it as a business when she gets around to claiming to be "grassroots". Ross also pushes a progressive facade, something she'd continue in her 911 "truth" phase:
Democracy for Oregon is not affiliated with any candidate or campaign.

DFO Summit & DFA Training AcademyThis event might have been where Sara Lamadrid really hooked-up with Ross, though Lamadrid has her own 911 conspiracy origin story. But how could she afford the registration? Oh yeah, $25 dollars for students; Lamadrid was known to be a student at the time:

DFO SUMMIT MAY 20 & 21
FEATURING
A TWO-DAY
DFA TRAINING ACADEMY
About the Summit:
The 2006 DFO Progressive Leadership Summit is a two day progressive grassroots activism training conference featuring the Democracy for America (DFA) Training Academy. The Summit will take place at Portland State University on May 20 & 21and we encourage activists of all levels to attend. The theme is the idea that "We are the ones" we have been waiting for. It is up to us to restore our Democracy.
Registration:Wow. $70 at the door: democracy isn't cheap. We only have Ross' word this money is being donated to Democracy for America and not just pocketed, in part or whole, by herself; this could be yet another place Craig Lazo got the idea for accusing Val McClatchey of running a fraudulent charity: it's something Lazo's friends tend to get up to.
First please go to our DFA Link registration site to log in to DFA Link. There you will be able to RSVP. Then you will need to complete your reservation by going to the DFA Contribution page.
SAVE $10 BY REGISTERING ONLINE IN ADVANCE!
TUITION
$60 for general attendees (prepaid online or by mail)
$70 pay at door / $25 for students
$25 for attendees on a low income
The low tuition is a donation to Democracy for America, a federal PAC working to elect progressive candidates up and down the ballot through their innovative and powerful DFA-List campaign. Your tuition dollars will go to support outstanding people-powered candidates across the country such as Lew Frederick and Sal Peralta who are this year's Oregon DFA List winners.
Later on Ross, er the "webmaster", gets around to pimping her 911 conspiracy group:
9/11 Truth Event:There was at least one other "summit" in 2005:
After the Peak Party, come on up to SMU 328 & 9 to see an intriguing presentation on the fraud and coverup surrounding 9/11 and the "official" story. Learn some undeniable truths and how our government has sought to avoid them. It's a good opportunity to connect with the PDX 9/11 Truth Alliance and also support DFO and the PSU College Democrats all at the same time. Click here for details. Bring a suggested donation of $5 to $10 but most of all bring yourself and gain some insight into the extent of the 9/11 coverup in progress. The funds you contribute will help us keep our DFO blog fires burning througout the year at our progressive community blogspaces BlogforOregon.com, DemocracyforOregon.org, and DFOAction.org. If you can't attend but you wish to contribute anyway, just to make the statement that, hey, you are wildly in favor of building an Oregon progressive infrastructure just like we are, then click here.Thanks!

One plus in Ross' cargo container of minus': she appears to be the only group member who registers her business ventures:
Is this because Ross is careful not to use them to money launder? Or because, as a lawyer, she's more confident about her book cooking? It's a toss up.
Election Fraud
Active protesting election fraud after the election/reelection of Bush or so she says. Virtually none of the goals of the so called election fraud "movement" were achieved, but we bet Ross and others like her made a quick buck promising people she'd "do something".
One of the groups Ross appears involved with is the Alliance for Democracy
Portland Chapter, which she promoted on anti-Semite Captain Eric May's yahoo list serve:

911 truth and other scams
Ross was involved in the 911 Inside Job conspiracy movement at least from mid 2006. Ross tried and failed to drum up support for the cause among Liberal Democrats in September of 2006.

She was an active member of the Portland 9/11 Truth Alliance(sometimes called the PDX 911 Truth Alliance), attended meetup groups regularly and might have briefly been the owner of the meetup group, before Sara Lamadrid took over. All was smooth sailing until around mid 2007 when the group "split"; in other words some members discovered something the group wanted to keep secret and so they staged a "split" to pretend to respond to concerns, when the controlling members were in fact still working together and sharing information privately.
By the end of 2007 Ross would be running a private 911leaders list, were she kept up the scam of pretending to be concerned about "Sara and Petros" and warning people about them,
Have a good meeting --- you are welcome to invite people to join this
list, just send me the email address of any new leaders you meet who
would like to participate. The only way in which I filter the
membership is to make sure we do not have Petros, Sarah or Jo or their
followers to regale us with their bizarre lectures.
Thanks and have a good day,
Ginny
while, much like Tim Titrud, continued to share information on their main listserve that Petros supposedly "took over":

Ross would also be working with raging anti semite Captain "OMG we're gunna be nuked" Eric May and pimping a scam by cult leader Webster Tarpley. Ross would also use her list to encourage attacks and lies on former members, for instance promoting Jennifer's blog Tinfoilwars and continuing to spread lies that ex members were "stalking" the group:

She was also told she and her members were not to use my name in connection to her group or her members.(While I assisted as a volunteer at some events, I was never a public figure.)
It was also used to communicate with cult leader Tarpley and give him questionable information on exmembers, that would end up in pedo Thomson's videos:

Tim Titrud
Hi Tim,
Why do you think WT is so focused on her and her
twisted rants and such? I haven't been tracking all
she's been doing in the blogosphere so it's hard to
gauge. Is she staging a meltdown of some sort?
Seems to me WT is giving her stature by spending
time and energy on her. Also, I think CJS is Jo but
I have no proof of it "luv" :-) Her last comments
to us after signing off as "Jo" was she will
immediately "sue" for harassment anyone who attempts
to contact her, etc. Blah, blah, blah.... She's a
certifiable loon!!!! --- I told WT I thought she was too juvenile to be Cointelpro.... :-) That's why I
didn't want to go on his show to talk about her, but
I would gladly go on and talk about TO & VS. By the
way, does he cover those issues too (I hope? :-))
Go Ducks!
Ginny
That most of this so called information is pushed by people who can't even agree on spelling; par for the course for paranoid deranged cultists imagining COINTELPRO is after them. The real question is why Ross is on speaking terms with a Larouchie cultist...
Moar bad advice...or negligence...rumored to come from Ross:
endorsing vandalism to support the cult cause
discussions to jam 911 emergency services
Sounds exactly like another cult lawyer.
With the end of the world failing to come, Ross' Oregon Truth Alliance fizzled out, and she returned to this yahoo group list she'd set up in 2007:

Thursday, 9 April 2009 - 7:49 PM UTC
This invitation expires in 30 days.
ginnypdx@comcast.net has invited you to join the Portland911Truth group!
At some point she transferred the group to Richard Frager, probably trying to avoid the fallout of online complaints. Her last major act was a wild spin and whitewash effort after inquiries were made about Craig Lazo. It was a feeble and sad attempt, but the best she could do under the circumstances, since by this time it was common knowledge Craig Lazo was living in Portland, lived with Jennifer Wynhausen and was known personally to Ginny Ross. But obviously, since Lazo was using information about former members, it would put Ross in a tough spot, since equally obviously, Ross knew what Lazo was doing as "Killtown". So, including moving Lazo back to California ASAP, they fell back on the old standby of destroy all evidence they knew each other.
It didn't work. But 5/10 for trying.
Arthur Anderson
Yes, that faggot; comment on Sticking Point:
Jack,

Posted by Ginny Ross | June 10, 2005 5:37 AM
We assume Ross meant "Andersen". Obviously Ross learned from her previous partners' mistakes, and mastered the art of being a slimey lawyer and staying out of jail.
Fishy Gill-nets
In 2010, Ross took her act on the road and tried the old cult charm on some fishery activists, claiming to be a wild fish advocate. Wild fish advocates were not impressed:
The author for this is a lawyer hack for a group called the CCA. Their mission is get rid of all commercial fishing by claiming that this will save fish. But the reality is that it is just an allocation grab by rich sport fishing groups.And:
Clearly this is written by an attorney, which is person highly trained in law, but with no specific training in fisheries.
First, the greatest threat to successful rebuilding on the Columbia is not a specific gear type, but is the continuous struggle to reallocate fish between user groups. When the groups have a final allocation to depend on, they will refocus on enhancing and recovering these stocks.
Too often arguments like these can be a reallocation argument, in disguise.
Now on to how to harvest, and rebuild these stocks successfully.
I give this writer credit for trying, but she misses the most selective gear type in the world. This is the fishwheel, which harvests fish with less harm than either gillnets or recreational hook and line fishermen.
The fish are harvested alive and can be sorted alive, and returned to the water alive. Fisheries biologists worldwide use fishwheels for this exact purpose, and fishwheels were one of the first effective harvest methods on the Columbia.
Fishwheel caught salmon are worth more money which reduces the economic strain to simply catch more fish.
The CCA looks like a Big Oil Astro Turf scam. Missionary zeal and incompetence are a bad mix:
Even the ifeesh member and CCA afiliated attorney Ginny Ross was referring to the spring chinook tangle net fishery as non selective for a long time till I finally dug out documentation stating it is a selective fishery and has been since 2001.But Ross let the cult mask slip the most here, where she almost loses it when her org CCA is outed for hiring a lawyer Kevin Mannix:
Bill,Kevin Mannix is a Republican faggot. And turns out Mannix was representing CCA; after much butt hurt, Ross even admits it:
You have got to be kidding. CCA's announcement of it's Protect Our Salmon Act came out WEEKS ago and a special thread called "CCA Petition" quickly followed in this forum. You then recently WROTE about the CCA having spearheaded a new initiative petition to ban gillnetting in last Sunday's Oregonian. Now you are spreading a rumor with no foundation that Mannix is CCA's attorney and faking ignorance about CCA's leadership in the petition effort, wondering out loud if CCA's Oregon Chairman is acting on his own to carry out one of the most critical efforts of the organization he leads? C'mon man.
Ginny
Friends,Whoah doggies!! She apologized! It's a start. Wonder if she'll ever apologize for the endless stream of lies she helped spread on her listserve(s). Probably not; apologies are for people the group is trying to impress and only if a group member is caught in the convo. IOW moar self serving bullshit.
When Bill Monroe reported the involvement of KM as attorney for the sponsors I found it deeply disturbing, so much so that I hoped it was not true. I made what now has proven to be an unfairly disparaging post toward Bill questioning his claim. Though I have deleted the post it is copied in a couple of following posts. I am posting again on this issue to clarify that Bill was correct. I am very sorry, Bill, and fellow iFishers for my comment.
Or maybe is self preservation. Mannix was exposed in Ross' local paper in a Department of Justice probe:
Mannix has enough problems without being connected to a dimwittig lawyer who works with Holocaust deniers, lol.Oregon Department of Justice Closing In On Mannix
Handling of charitable gifts for veterans is under investigation

Yes, I did use the best availible science to do what you claimed was impossible and absurd. I took scientific evidence and predicted a future event and situation.
The same was done to preform the Apollo 11 moon landing on July 20, 1969. Nasa used scientific evidence to predict and construct what would be required to land men on the moon and return them safely to earth.
We put a man on the moon but somehow cannot even come up with a rough timetable for recovery of ESA listed salmon under this new plan. But, there are some people who believe the moon landing was faked - they say it was impossible and absurd. And there are also some people who believe 9/11 was an inside job.

Trust Your Estate Plan
Estate Planning Legal Services by Ginny Ross – Your source for Affordable Living Trust Estate Plans and Administration in Portland, Oregon
Estate Planning Resolution 2012: A Precious Gift for Your FamilyGetting started with an estate plan seems hard because we don’t want to think about our own demise. But there is joy in the process depending on your perspective. In reality, we can not know and experience life without the fact of death. By embracing the fact you put away the struggle of denying or fearing it and planning becomes an endeavor like any part of your day or week into which you apply energy and get a sense of accomplishment, calm, preparedness and peace of mind when you have completed it. My goal is to help you reach that result; to help you gain more freedom and enjoyment of your life by creating an excellent, affordable estate plan that will resolve without complication, simply as part of a celebration of your life, rather than an interruption and a costly burden of administration for your loved ones. Feel free to download one of my Estate Planning questionnaires below to help you get started! Make 2012 the year you give your family this precious gift: a well planned estate after a life well lived. I look forward to the opportunity to help you.
