This is the city: Los Angeles, California. I work here. I'm an ex-mayor. Los Angeles is a magnet for people from all over the world. Some of them run for public office. Inevitably some of them stray from the golden rule and rule for those that have the gold. That's when I go to work. My name is Yorty. I'm a dead pol.
A new feature requested by many yesterday is an open thread with no specific topic for you to cut and paste your random newsclips and off-base theories on all things that suit your fancy.

the candidates that are all running for cd 14 are aliens from outer space. We all know that there is a plot from planet x to take over the Cd 14 seat on city council so that they can move forward their agenda of enslaving the people of Los Angeles.
You can tell that these are the pod people from planet x. Who do you think it was who has sabotaged the recent mars observers? the pod people from Planet x who have a cloning plant on MArs where they have created people to fill th eseats of the Los Angeles City Council. They are coming and they are here.
Why do you think Grey Davis was recalled and MAyor Hahn lost , it is because the pod people from Planet x needed to remove the real humans from the offices in California. ANd replace them with clones .
It's really no fun for the Pacheco Blogging Team to have an open forum; so much better when they can take over any other thread and fill it with trash and Nick's great accomplishments and the daring deeds of his other two Musketeers, Elisio and Ricardo, III.

Funny post. The only alien in my community are the racist ones. Sounds too SCI FI, have you read Zecharia Sitchin? Your comments relate somewhat to his writings...no aliens in my town, just politicians. Some want money, others want to help, and there are the ones who want to screw the people.
Watch out for the latter of the three.
7:13 AM
Any team will probably respond to allegations poster. You just posted an association that may be true or not, this makes the other team respond. Healthy debate, just don't get personal. Actually, it is a free world so do whatever you want the Mayor's have a delete button to control. Control?
CD14 constituents are realizing what a bunch of lazy CD14 staffers Antonio has left behind. They are spending all their time in the district campaigning for Little Jose at tax payer expense. Now we hear Antonio is using his Mayor office to call seniors to put lawn signs of Jose.
Pacheco has a long list of accomplishments. At community meetings people are now talking about Jose having NO EXPERIENCE, the mess he left LAUSD, the fact that never before was he out in the community til now and they resent that.
Antonio rules, Pacheco drools
Go Huizar
did alex padilla really cry or have an emotional break down during closed council session like the L.A. Times article said?
How much $$$$$ did the IBEW donate to Villaraigosa campaign for Mayor?
How much did DWP contribute?
How much did Meruelo GIVE?
He cried when he heard he was not endorsed by our little mayor.
Does Villaraigosa have that Napoleon complex, he is short, saw him today, very short.
Riordan had the same complex. They're both 5'7"
Villaraigosa can't be 5'7" he is making that up on his license. I saw him today and he is about 5'4"
I am 5'8" and he was much shorter than I
On top of their short heights, AV has learned and is ruled by the Slick Dick Riordan style of governance:
1) Be a Control Freak
2) Be at every photo-op to LOOK like you're doing something
3) Use the media as your whores
4) Always blame the previous mayor for current problems.
5) Forge Public-Private enterprses that only benefits the next polticial campaign.
6) Look like you have the public's best interest and want community involvement. (With that BS, "you can work for AV slogan" similar to Riordan's "donation of Books")
I guess he had elevator shoes on during the elections, because I'm 5'11 and he was not that short when I met him at a couple of events.
APad, what a 6 foot 3 crybaby!
AV is 5'5" Next time check what type of heels he is wearing.
Anyone here going to the Pacheco/Huizar debate?
Do you want to see pictures, here we go again.

10 charged with fraud in registering to vote

Alleged illegal immigrant who worked in Border Patrol also served in Navy
SAN DIEGO (AP) - An alleged illegal immigrant accused of smuggling people into the United States while working as a Border Patrol agent served four years in the U-S Navy and received an honorable discharge.
The disclosure came in San Diego federal court today where U-S Magistrate Anthony Battaglia denied bail to the former agent. Oscar Antonio Ortiz pleaded not guilty last week to charges of alien smuggling and making a false claim to U-S citizen.
Nunez Talks About Turmoil In San Diego
Speaker's Term Runs Through 2008
"People in this state refuse to be intelligent about immigration. (The) reason why we have immigration in California is because we have job opportunities for people," Nunez said.
Nunez has also been instrumental in killing bills that are aimed at eliminating education opportunities for children of undocumented people.
"What this is, is an opportunity for new people to come to (the) council, (a) new mayor to take advantage of (the) opportunity to rebuild San Diego because San Diego is a remarkable city," Nunez said.
Embattled home lender gives heavily to politicians
Ameriquest, a big donor to both parties, accused of duping low-income borrowers
Arnall, 66, had been a major Democratic donor. Ameriquest contributed nearly $400,000 to the California Democratic Party in 2004 and 2005. The mortgage lender spent thousands on airfare, hotel rooms, food, gifts and football tickets to send Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez, D-Los Angeles, and other Democratic Assembly members to Honolulu for a party fundraiser at this past February's Pro Bowl.
Speaking of the 14th District race. I just learned that Eric Hacopian has been hired as Nick Pacheco's consultant.
Why would a young up and coming guy in the consulting world, waste his talents on Pacheco and his Clown Possie?
Half an open thread dedicated to "how tall is little Tony?"
Pitiful.
You wouldn't get that much response from supporters if you asked "what did he get dones in city council for two years?"
5:43 PM The obsession with our Mayor's height comes precisely due to lack of finding any project he initiated and completed while in office for two years. Great Personality, but bad work ethics.
I told you guys; an open thread is just no fun for the {acheco Blogging team (Torres y Villanueva).
They are reduced to bad jokes about AV's height.
How pitiful. I guess Ricardo Torres, III and Eliseo will be starting another successful recall campaign soon on Mayor Villaraigosa? Their overwhelming success last time out to spur them on.
At least it will keep them out of th eblogs for a while.
Villaraigosa 3'5.
On the news tonight Antonio sure looks like his hair is turning white fast. Yesterday he gave a press conf. saying one of his campaign promises was fulfilled not allowing construction during rush hour. Gee, he should be embarrassed that he's been in office 2 months and that's the big promise. What happened to the major ones that should be at the top of his agenda, more police, LAUSD issues, etc.
I would let APad cry in my bosom. BOY.. would I let him cry in my bosom. lol
PicoGrl
And find a woman or man in LA who wouldn't allow AV to do the same should he ever have a breakdown in public.
He woos everyone he touches. They fall in love. It borders on weird.
Pico Girl,
You really think A Padilla is that handsome? I do not, but might give him a tissue and scold him for crying during work hours.
Why is LA wanting to destroy another landmark?

Los Angeles will survive if it's fair to its people. I know LA, I was born there in the 1930s. LA can lead the world in new ideas and reform, or it can become a place where different peoples never seem to get-together. The potential is there.
