Villaraigosa Tidbits

The LA Times muses on the reasons for Mayor Villaraigosa's reasons for vetoing the air rights sale program the Council passed recently. In the Times' view its a combination power play and battle for who's going to get Downtown developer campaign contributions. Too bad it can't just be on what makes the most sense for Downtown huh?

Villaraigosa and other mayors want to create a big boondoggle of a socialist handout, that is, every child born in the US would get $500 from the government to save for college. How about just lowering people's taxes so they can pay their bills or so one parent can stay home from work? It will probably cost $500 in administrative costs for every $500 they give out. Lets hope the people figure this out. But I am not hopeful. A great philosopher once said no democracy could last long because eventually the people would figure out they could vote themselves gifts from the public treasury.

Shades of Joe Biden? The Mayor has released a plan to deal with school dropouts that is remarkably identical to one implemented by the LAUSD over a year ago. There is absolutely no truth to the rumor that the Mayor has created a plan to allow people access to nature and the wild by building a large park that has enclosed areas in which animals would be displayed.

"Viraragosa recent admission he's going deaf because of his own publicity stunts is not great news for those of us who watch up-close at a news conference over the last 30-some years. I mean, those 100-watt speakers were facing in our direction, too."

What about that poor girl at Forshay Learning Center who fainted ? And Michael Trujillo is not brought up on abuse charges. And he has the audacity to manage a School Board campaign.

I am soooo sick of this buffoon in the mayor's office!

He is unbelievably stupid but this time he may have just dug his own grave. This fool is going nationwide with the $500/per kid (Illegal kid, of course) as a DEPOSIT !!! He wants the government to add $500/year for these illegals!!!!

Well, it's going to expose him nationally for what he is....an agent of Calderon and Mexico.

Thank God he is too stupid to realize that AMERICANS are fed up and disgusted with the influx of third worlders from Mexico!!!!!

Doesn't this fool realize that LA is the least desireable city in the nation???? LA is the poster child for exactly what you DO NOT WANT to happen to your city!!!

LA is a pariah amongst the rest of the country! And this bozo will make the rest of the country realize that he is the reason LA is Mexicanized!

I really hope he gets national attention...it will finish him off for good!!!

Nice to see good issues posted instead of Zuma crap.

Has anyone noticed how LA has deteroriated since Antonio got in office? Gang violence up because Antonio supports illegals and gang members knows he won't speak out against them, no Hollywood Parade, illegals making this city into 3rd world country, downtown a trash area with illegal vendors, traffic out of control. LA is becoming Ensenada, Mexico. Tourist will be down this season cause who wants to come to a city where our electeds have embarrassed us throughout the nation, most under policed city in US and a Mecha Mayor.

Villaraigosa vetoed the bill to give Meruelo time to get out of his legal mess. Rocky wants to jail Meruelo while Antonio wants his campaign contributions. Word is Meruelo is pissed that the $190,000 he put into Antonio's campaign wasn't enough to keep Delgadillo off his ass. Of course, Rocky didn't move on this until that Channel 4 investigation.

Just goes to show, money doesn't buy everything and Antonio isn't all that powerful.

Of course, when ethnocentric Villaraigosa talks about schemes like this $500 government check giveaway, he is really just motivated to help illegal aliens, specifically poor Mexicans. $500 is meaningless to responsible middle class parents, many or most of whom are already saving for college for their kids through 529 plans etc. Mayor Sam is right, CUT OUR TAXES and allow us to invest this money ourselves.

fun fun fun,

let me count the ways the people on this blog make sense.

traffic is out of control!!! really? because commuter times have decreased since antonio has become mayor AND this is related to an increase in ridership on the MTA. but why let simple easy to verify facts get in your way of your racism.


DOWNTOWN IS TRASH -- ILLEGAL VENDORS!!!

cry me a river buddy, crime is 30% in downtown since the mayor initiated the clean streets program down there. funny how facts simply just get in the way of your evil hate.

TOURISM WILL BE DOWN, BECAUSE EVERYONE IS RACIST LIKE ME!!!

interesting that you have insight on one of the hardest items to predict, that said, EVERYDAY, since the mayor has been in office there has been a 2-3% increase in toursit traffic from the previous year, gleaning the data from the same exact date from the previous year.

$500 A YEAR FOR EACH NEWBORN!!!

Yeah real revolutionary -- just like America did in 1812 in New York it wasn't $500 per child but something similar to that days monetary worth. Also nevermind that the mayor's conference is 60% membership republican, which means the task-force the mayor sits on will send a reccomendation to a membership that is overwhelmingly, white, republican and probably anti-immigration. yet the resolution is expected to get overwhelming support. maybe its because the united states has historic precendent -- good ol USA.

MAYOR VETOED THE BILL TO HELP MUREULO???

ok i have no idea why you think that, other than to say right behind you is a space alien that you cannot trust -- run away, run away!

AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS??

please show me the congressional bill that allows that and not your hyperbole. it wouldn't pass, this mayor isn't advocating for it in DC -- and if you guys didn't know this already you are currently related to elvis and they want to give you some of the fortune. run, run over to elvis's house and demand your money now!

I quite agree with Anonymous 4:00 P.M. EXCEPT...

I had to drive from WLA to San Bernardino on Thursday night, and it took me 3.5 hours.

The traffic was so congested that it slowed constantly and I had time to observe my fellow gridlocked companions.

Guess what I saw? What appeared to be a huge majority of workers who had the facial characteristics of Latino workers.

I admire their spirit for wanting a better life for their families and themselves, but I wish they'd all go home, nonetheless.
