So are the UCLA MECHA folks there?
Mayor Sam on the scene here. I'm wearing a plaid polyester jacket and a DWP 84 Games cap.
Its a zoo! Just had a hot dog wrapped in bacon and onions. See anti-immigration folks, anti-abortion folks. Not sure if Hal Netkin is here, but I heard he was.

I see Gore is talking with Cardinal Mahoney.
Is he trolling for a job or ?
Nahhhhhh
So, what is Hahn going to do now?
Oh No not Cruz being interviewed!
How does Gray look?
No budget deal today!
California money printing presses stop now!
Real guns!
Why of course.... there will be alot of that during the next 4 years!
Immigrants usually get the lousy jobs at first.
So the comparison of Arnie and AV are right on!
Let's see how they do in office.
Some good old gospel music.
Can Hahn keep the beat?
We're grooving out here.

Damn next he will talk about abortion.
This guy next to me told me that if they were going to have a preacher talk this long, they should have got a black one.

Mayor Sam,
"too much religion here."
And you are a Republican?
This cop just told me I can't leave. Doesn't he know who I am? Crap. I should have watched it from the bar at the Biltmore like I planned.

Another Gospel song.
Those lefties are getting religion NOW!
Religion, yes. Lefties are marketing into faith to get elected into office.
Laura Chick has had too many drinks!
Hey where is Magic Johnson?
Will anyone buy a car from Rockey?
Wipe that smile off of Janice's face!
What happened at City Council re: presidency?
Guess what Reinhardt you will not be the next appointee to SCOTUS
Mayor Sam who swore you in?
AV did not know what hand to put on the "libro."
Hey AV is wrong handed on the bible...a Leftie always!
Flap gives AV a one hour honeymoon!
Let the fun and games commence!
Its official.. BEENERAGOOSA is now mayor...
Civility Today?
Are we looking at a DICTATOR?
COMUNISMO
MECHISTAS, Mexican officials, AV's Staff were ordered to BOOOO Arnold, preplanned.
AV looks cocky....what a bastard.
Mucho Mexicans here. It is all a show.
GOD? AV and GOD? What a ridicule he has placed on catholicism.
The Raigosa Family hate him in ELA.
Raigosa family is just as bad as AV when it comes to GREED and jealousy of each other.
All of Raigosa's extended family go to catholic schools too and are cocky like AV.
Que lindo es este pais, que deja el comunismo entrar en las puertas de CITY HALL!
Now the Spanish to appease the MECHISTAS
CITY TERRACE to Meruelo to VIGNALI to the three bandidos at CITY HALL.
Beener speaks Spanish.. we're impressed
I saw Meruelo seated near AV's heina.
Hell my kids went to cathloic schools....best education in SoCal
Why not the best?
Damn this will be a fun four years...I can hardly wait for Hillary.
AV has a tic on his left eye, is he nervous?
AV steals the purpose from any good idea of constituents and showers them as his own.
BANDIDO Y VENDIDO!
OK AV, I WILL BRING THE POTATO SALAD TO YOUR PARTY.
This is the best he has spoken in a long time. No Villar studder or stammer today.
Now AV talks about the frustration..... hey how about the GANGISTAS?
Speech is so so.... not great...now he sounds like BH
I see the sleeper
AV is now playing the LAPD card
Where is Bernie Parks?
AV is a proud progressive!
Does that mean not a CROOK?
Great Speech,
They stole bits and pieces from constituents. I have proof...vendido, no vale la pena.
Will AV take his kids out of Catholic schools now?
Speech is rambling and applause decreasing!
Mayor frank,
If I email it to you, you will let AV know who I am. Much better to tell the media.
Speech is too LONG!
Now BH's traffic stuff!
Mayor Frank,
I cannot believe you have been blind to AV's history of taking credit for other people's work.
He is an expert at this type of fraud.
He is talking as long as Mahoney..... getting BORING NOW!
Cardinal Mahoney looks like he is going to get up and tackle AV if he does not shut up.
He loves South Pasadena better than L.A. (Nuestro Pueblo). African American community has been conned by this commie
Not the Dream metaphors!
Placating the South LA folks!
Civil unrest?
Fix the schools and stop allowing Meruelo and Vignali to run our entire communities.
The Baptist Church folks will get theres... but by then AV will be running for Governor or Senate.
AV tried to sound like MLK, but he will NEVER be an MLK. He WISHES.
Simon Rodilla? Que Pasa aqui. Yea, AV and Huizee brokered the biggest land deal in Los Angeles for Meruelo.
Is he concluding yet?
got a plug in for the gays.
Finally, he shut up.
Boring Bandido (Vendido)
Natalie Cole?
I thought they would have "Los Tucanes de Tijuana!"
Gore looks catatonic!
Av is catering to the African American Community. What a kiss ass, only for show. After today, it will be MEXICANO TOWN>
Thanks Mayor Sam and Frank!
Flap has had fun!
And damn I live 50 miles outside L.A.
Later
Que Viva Villaraigosa! Today is the beginning of the Mexicans rising up to the new AZTLAN "ALTA CALIFORNIA"
Mayor Frank,
We have a journalist researching this already. But you are welcomed to join in the research.
Comparing several constituents claims of plagiarism of ideas and letter sent to AV. Journalist is comparing past speeches during campaign and current one today.
So far, I hear it is right on the money for these claims.
Mayor Sam,
Go ahead and cover AV into the office, he's calling you right now.
Thanks Mayor Frank. I sure hope so.
thanks for the commentary - you guys are great!

Hands to AV, he gave an impressive speech. A little long, but made his point of uniting Los Angeles, more than Mayor Poopy did. Also give him kudos for not just promising more cops, and fighting gangs, but getting to the root of the problem -- give hope to the little kiddies, a good education, safe streets, opportunity in life and they wont go into gangs, is basically what he said. Its a big job, and I wish him luck and even though it make be just talk now, at least its intelligent talk, I hope AV gets it going.
And as must as those anti-AVers may not want to admit it, the man has some charisma and clout, he just might do it.
I agree with you PicoGirl -
Although I did vote for Hahn (didn't like AV going back on his words...but hey, he's a politician), I think AV will bring many things to the table. Some are already speculating his demise but I think he'll be a great addition to our long list of LA Mayors...
Where can i get free tickets to hang out with the gang?
what, you need tickets?
Well back in the office now. I had a good time. Now its time to get to work.
There were two sets of protesters I heard. What were the other ones? Naji Ali was there. He was quoted in today's papers saying Antonio has set himself up to fall hard. Media reporting a big scuffle with the guy carrying the Mexican Flag. No Latinos at Podium but Chip Murray got to speak. Gameboy Padilla went with a woman. Who is he trying to kid?
Gee, wonder why Chief Bratton was walking way ahead by himself in front of procession. If Antonio appoints John Mack to police commission as papers are reporting you can see the relationship between Bratton and Antonio go down the toliet.
2:09-- Apparently Padilla also moonlights as a field deputy for Al Gore, did you see how he was riding that ass? You're right, who's he trying to kid.
Gotta love John & Ken on KFI. They are tearing Antonio apart and the LA Times promises agenda in today's paper. Unbelievable they can get away with what they're saying.
Here's the real analysis:
It was a good speech. It took him a while to find his stride, though. Crowd reaction was a bit understated. Standing ovation at the beginning was short. Good opening, but he was speaking too slowly. Needed to get into the meat of it more quickly. Could have been more gracious to Jim Hahn, would have made him seem even bigger, and he was much better in his council speech to JH. It was not AV's staff that was booing, BTW, a ridiculous claim. Janice Hahn was smiling the whole time and checking on her brother occasionally, who seemed to enjoy himself, except when AV was speaking.
Speech was fine--not the best-penned thing that Antonio has given. A little too general, a little too vague. The dream stuff was good.
His mother stuff and personal bio stuff was and always is moving (all you AV-haters, it is, so get over it).
Funniest line was when he said that politics was a family affair. Indeed.
The stuff about Watts Towers was a beautiful metaphor, I thought, and he really was able to get into it and the pace picked up.
I was surprised there was not more spanish in the speech, but his multi-cultural stuff (Malaysia yesterday or Moscow a century ago) was very strong.
Overall, a 7.5 out of 10. Gore was as wooden as usual. Chick sure gave Rocky the middle finger with Jerry Brown. When did things get so bad between 'em?
Alex Padilla looks homosexual. Just my opinion.
4:45 PM
So you think using his mom as a marketing ploy for politics is RIGHT!
He really loved his mom by using her as bait to the brainwashed.
Pobre mama..
PicoGrl
4:45pm, I bet you werent breast-fed either were you?
There is nothing wrong with thanking your mother for your success. Just as he said, this is the story of many Angelinos. There is a strength derived from the pain & suffering that one struggles. You learn to appreciate the gifts & talents that have been given you, My own mother was widowed with 3 young children at a young age and instead of giving up and succumbing to the despair with drugs & alcohol she raised her children all to be educated & successful. If it was my inauguration you bet I would give thanks to my mother for raising us right. But you wouldn’t have a clue about what I am talking about would you?
5:49 PM
As usual, AV lovers love to stereotype anyone else that disagrees with AV. Practice some empathy instead of hatred Ms. Ms.
inside info,,,hot off the press...AV wasnt wearing any fruit of the loom aka chonies aka tighty whities. laura chick stole them and told AV if he starts any funny stuff she'll sell them on e-bay to janice hahn!!!
tom cat.
tom cat? pleeeeaaase.
HE uses his mother to glorify himself. Why did he forget to talk about his dad beating his mom as he does in every speech? Too many promises at the starting gate. The mayor has no control over schools so why bother as most media reported this afternoon. The Mexican flag really pissed a lot of people off. Antonio was too obviously reading his lines. Let's see if the research shows if it was his speech or not.
What Mexican Flag? What are you talking about? Inform us please.
Well atleast AV didn't start crying and sobbing during his speech like Tony Cardenas does everytime. BUAAAH. AV kicked ass, don't hate.
Apparently there was a HUGE Mexican Flag and a guy who was aggressively pushing through the crowd. He got into a confrontation with a lot of spectators and they finally had to ask him to leave. Well, that just pissed him off and he started saying "I'm proud of my heritage, Antonio is one of us" ...... It's just like that Billboard that had LA crossed out and Mexico printed in. People are sensitive about their cultures but face it we are in Los Angeles.
I went to that link Mayor Frank provided for the pro-life protestors. I did not see anything wrong with that. Usually liberal professors make us do things we do not agree with such as listen to a liberal speaker, attend a communist camp, or listen to other professors slander the soldiers over in Iraq at public events...nada different Mayor Frank
Eyes are on you AV...
It's up to you as Mayor to make a positive difference for Angelinos first, and special interest groups/developers last or never.
Eyes are on you in the backroom deals AV...
