FROM MEAT:
It's Christmas in February who could've guessed. Oh wait I did.
Since it is passed midnight, and I have business out of the city today -- I will post today's clips for you dum-dums to see what the average Joe will be reading about all day.
**************More Illegal Activity by Hahn************
LA Times: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-hahn4feb04,1,4633400.story?coll=la-headlines-california
Daily News: http://www.dailynews.com/Stories/0,1413,200~20954~2691155,00.html
These two articles chronicle the story given by Fred Gaines ( a man never fined by the ethics commission) who says that DWP Commissioner and Hahn appointee (and mastermind of the Fleishman contract) Dominick Rubalcava was seeing hosting a fundraiser for Hahn -- a big No-No especially since this mayor signed the law making it illegal -- how ironic. But the real funny part is in the LA Times where it says perennial hack Kam Kuwata was cussing up a storm. Now come on Kam, we all know you like your sip of vodka here and there but being a dumb drunk and yelling obscenities to reporters doesn't help your client. I think lil Kam needs a nap, Kammy do you need a nap? Come on lil guy you want your ba-ba? ok lil guy take your nap.
*******************Villaraigosa Transportation Plan*****
LA Times: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-antonio4feb04,1,6429475.story?coll=la-headlines-california

Villaraigosa transportation plan -- a positive story about Antonio's plan while admitting there needs to be a funding stream attached, I think this shows the type of bold leadership this city needs so desperately needs. Someone willing to swing for the fences.
*******************Hahn Ignoring Debate Again***********
LA Times: http://www.dailynews.com/Stories/0,1413,200~20954~2691405,00.html

Now Hahn, does all this free press the other candidates are getting is your reelection strategy? I mean we all know Bill Carrick doesn't like to do "message of the day" because it detracts from his pay day in the paid media commercials, but there needs to be some strategy on the free media, oh wait, why would there be a strategy on free media when there isn't one for this city.
*************** Hard Truths****************************
http://www.dailynews.com/Stories/0,1413,200~20951~2690807,00.html
More DWP, more corruption from Hahn – fun, fun, fun.

If you read one story today here it is, i love this one. Mainly because the employee was propped up by the Villaraigosa campaign and the ethics commission just in time for this campaign, i mean there has to be a conspiracy right guys?
I mean if you believe everything Wacko Nightlights says about how all these investigations turn up nothing and fizz away after the election, then well you have some more spinning to do. I think these were the documents not indictments Mayor Sam was hearing about on Tuesday. What’s great about Abrams and their massive fraud of senior citizens and their massive fraud of City election officials is the direct link this article makes between Abrams and Edwards. But of course nothing will come of this, accept an indictment – question is has anyone seen Abrams partner who can clear up all these allegations to prove the mayor is innocent -- oh yeah he FLED THE COUNTRY, how convenient.
Now I know why Kuwata was cussing up a storm, the mayor doesn't pay him enough to spin for the Gotti family.
Seriously guys, blog away, the influence you have over the LA media is just so convincing that it makes me quiver to read each and everydays newspapers. Oh wait that’s me.
Dum-dums of the world unite. blog away.
MEAT's gotta post it all up now, at the crack of dawn. Tony V.'s people got him on a plane in the early a.m. as part of the perpetual candidate's advance team checking out the political climate in New Mexico.
Another debate in the VALLEY and the Mayor is a no show. This is the 3rd time be has not attended a Valley debate. He wonders why the Valley feels ignored.
As for his plan to roll out the recycling plan to apartment houses, he had nothing to do with that and is trying to take credit.
Unlike the past debates, last night's debate with only three candidates was better than the past debates in the city minus the debate at Temple Beth Am in LA weeks ago. There was acutal substance and ideas and great attacks on the mayor's performance or lack thereof in running the City.
