Fran Pavley: Environmental Superstar
Capitol Weekly takes a look at liberal legislator Fran Palvey, the Assemblywoman who wants to be a State Senator. Pavley is sort of seen as an environmental superstar which is probably behind the reason for ridiculous nanny state legislation from her possible primary opponent - Assemblyman Lloyd "The Bachelor" Levine like trying to ban light bulbs or imposing state mandated schemes to recycle grocery bags.
These silly proposals are only a shallow attempt to try and match Pavley's long environmental record and more importantly - they're not working. Levine is far behind in fundraising and in polls. Insiders say Levine is considering dropping out of the race to seek a Los Angeles City Council seat.

Whose seat would Levine go for? Isn't it Zine, who's vulnterable because of the megadevelopments he's been supporting in the West Valley?
Zine is definitely NOT an environmentalist! Could that worry be why Zine is trying to appear more liberal, like proposing the marijuana dispensary legislation, which puts a moratorium on new and shady ones, but hopes to allow the others to operate without being busted again by the DEA. But, what authority does the city actually have, in the face of federal legislation to the contrary?

Yup, Zine's seat.

Levine has as much chance of beating Zine as Zuma Dog does.
Slim and none, and you know what happened to Slim...

Mayor Sam - get over your nanny state bullshit.
do you understand anything at all about the DWP, power supply, energy consumption, transformer life, heat exchange, global warming etc?
most people I guess are just too dumb to appreciate the difference that switching tungsten to CFL will make.
imagine losing 75% of your weight
maybe that will put the consumption into perspective.

Dowd you ignoramus Higby didn't need the government to lose weight and I don't need the government, you or your dope addled wannabe rapper clown lover to tell me what freaking light bulb to use. I know it makes more sense to use one of those new lights and I do. Idiot.

Stuart, you're not being fair to zuma. You know he could beat Zine if he wanted, and after all, he's Zine's protege, Zine is the only one who's taken him under his wing and showed him around City Hall, according to our grateful Zuma himself.
So the only question is, would zuma want to undermine his mentor that way? Because no doubt, since he's read a book that influenced Prego Pasta Sauce company to boost sales, when he tells us he could run a successful candidate for Mayor any time he wants, that would also apply to himself. Look out, Zine!

I do'nt think Zine will be able to sleep tonight worrying about the smelly, bald, moron running against him.
Hell, ZD can finance the whole campaign out of his donations from folks to PayPal.
He should win in a walk, that is, if he isn't busy riding the bus down to City Council and stinking it up so badly that other homeless folks want to get off early to avoid gagging.

Kudos, Matt, on your high level of enviro awareness. The next task is to make sure everyone in L.A. knows that if a CFL bulb breaks, it basically weaponizes mercury into the air and that Los Angeles does not have a convenient or regular method of picking up hazardous waste from our homes. So, even with the longer life of those bulbs, they still end up in the landfills leaching mercury and other toxins into the ground and acquifers. Ah, the joys of mercury, eh?

Levine is a loser and should get no special treatment at the unemployment line.
Daddy has to tap into his 401k plan and support his little boy.
Levine, Jerrys Deli on Ventura Blvd. needs plenty of bus boys to clean the tables, tips are not included.
Just ask Cindy Montanez.
