Patrick McGreevy LA Times working his butt off on some good stories.
Let's see Antonio has to pay Ameriquest another check for a gift basket he rec'd back in June cause it was more then electeds can receive.
Rocky is in trouble cause a contributor says in a letter his top dog offered to wiave about $696,000 on a loan.
Great politicans we have here in LA>
Gee who would have thought we actually have city council members who have guts to go against AV. So to that AV lover who said Jose and Wesson would be a shoe in, YOU WERE WRONG.
Daily Breeze, David Z.....Los Angeles City Council rejects ACLU lawyer.....In a second vote, appointee of Villaraigosa fails to win confirmation to city's homeless services panel.
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa failed Wednesday for a second time to collect the votes needed to confirm an attorney who helped sue the city over the homeless to a commission dealing with homeless services.
The council voted 6-4 in favor of mayoral appointee Doug Mirell, two votes shy of the number needed to place him on the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority.
7:41 a.m.
Let's see if Ameriquest ever even cashes these checks!
("Oh yeah, we got them, Antonio - wink, wink -- yeah, yeah, we know JUST what to do with them - nudge, nudge")
AND SO IT BEGINS, the "walk don't run" race to become AV's first full-fledged "tool" on LAUSD, replacing Huizar. . . (do puppets get understudies?)

I think those of you who believe that Herb Wesson will do what AV tells him to is gonna be very surprised.
He's his own man. He didn't need AV and he won't be toeing AV's line.
This I know.
