Yup, the mayor was at Nobu enjoying himself and there is a picture to prove it. Scandalous! I say we start a recall campaign. Try to separate the real stuff from your ax you must continually grind. Plus, now you're just posting pictures without any content. I remember when there would be a story associated to the picture. If you were McDonald's you would now be serving all bun.

It looks like the Mayor and Robert DeNiro had a few sakes before this picture was taken.

I wish I could afford to eat at Sr. Nobu Matsuhisa's very expensive Japanese restaurant.
I need to get me a job where I have rich developer friends and earn some extra under-table cash money.

Don't worry about ADV, remember he still OWES the city of L.A. two years pay from when he was pretending to be a city councilmember earlier this century (back when he made "One Bill Gill" look prolific).

From 2003-2005, he received something like $300,000 in tax dollars for making believe he represented CD14, when all he was really doing was helping John Kerry lose a presidential election (Year #1) and running for mayor, himself (Year #2).

OH YEAH, spinners, and he single-handedly SETTLED THE MTA STRIKE (sometime in the first couple months of that make believe one-half term), after which he took a 20 month paid personal leave.

PLUS, he started:

80 FAKE NEIGHBORHOOD WATCHES

Am I missing something here? Did Antonio really get paid for two years he was not elected to the City Council?

The windmills of your mind are confusing everybody.

So what now - an elected official can't eat or drink anywhere you can't afford?

Don't be such a hick.

2:25 - read the subliminal message:

If AV had earned ANY part of his (embezzled) salary as a (fake) city councilmember for two (useless) years, then his paid (HIGHLY creative) campaign spinners wouldn't have had to create the myth (lie) that he started:

80 FAKE NEIGHBORHOOD WATCHES

. . . during his tenure in the first place. And maybe if he'd have paid them a bit more, they could have actually proven they existed.

That was one of only TWO claims made in his campaign materials to justify being a city employee from 2003-05. Twenty-four months, with only one semi-serious piece of incomplete legislation brought to the council agenda.

It was also why, after two years in office as a city councilmember, he spent 99 percent of his campaigning time talking about what he'd done at the state assembly years before -- because he and CD14 has ZIP to show for his half-assed, half-term here.

OH, and he also promised CD 14 he would stay two terms.

OH, and he also promised to make the Autry Center retain the Southwest as the principal museum for its collection.

Now if, like his spinners, he got paid by the lie (LIE), then MAYBE he earned his salary.

Man jailed for taco scam posted online

http://www.dailybreeze.com/ci_8633281

Robert Echeverria took $15 worth of food and 15 minutes of fame from Del Taco, but now he's paying with jail time - and he'll have to find his tacos elsewhere.

In the short film made on Feb. 19, the 32-year-old Echeverria - who is bald with a goatee and tattoos and weighs about 500 pounds according to police - calls the Del Taco in Rialto, about 50 miles east of Los Angeles, from the drivers' seat of his sport utility vehicle.

In a friendly tone he claims to be a CEO named "Robert Kennedy" who has already spoken to the store's manager and corporate office about some unwanted sour cream and the lack of a receipt in a previous order.

Echeverria was a known gangbanger who boasted about getting the food under false pretenses on his own video.

The connection between that and the Mayor living it up at Nobu?

The relevance of any of this?

Some people just can't put two and two together.

If you are a whopping 500 lbs fatso, don't steal tacos from Del Taco, instead eat lower calorie sushi with the Mayor and Robert DeNiro at Nobu's Japanese restaurant.

NO, the moral of this story is . . .

That Echeverria's weight of 500 pounds had nothing to do with the Breeze's story, yet they felt it was necessary to point out how FAT he was (because?? skinny runts never steal food? it was important to identify him that way? you might mistake him for some fit and trim tattooed, goateed Robert Echeverria somewhere else?)

Or was he SO fat (how fat WAS he), they couldn't fit a picture of him on that page of the paper?

No, because FAT is still one of the few protected prejudices.

Imagine if the story had said. Echeverria, who is CATHOLIC, or who's JEWISH, or who's mother is a DOMINICAN IMMIGRANT, or who is HIV-Positive, or who is GAY.

Higby, why do you allow this SIZE-ist BS stereotyping on you blog?

The girl can't help it!

And she calls someone fat?

Anonymouse went to the gynecologist the other day, when he took a look at her uterus up close he whistled and said : "Holy smoke!, it's gigantic in here, it's gigantic in here.

Anonymouse says,"you don't have to repeat yourself doctor!"

Doctor says: "is there an echo in here?, is there an echo in here?

I know, I know, pure vitriol.

Mayor Villaraigosa has a duty to set an example and go beyond the five days he proposed that city employees volunteer of unpaid leave. Villaraigosa should volunteer 5x5 (25 days) of unpaid vacation, which his gross pay of $21,456.50 could be used toward the short term budget solution to save $35 million. This definitely will encourage workers to follow his lead.

The only way to really get city employees to take a furlough day(s) is to make it mandatory. Why should we volunteer to take off when the economy sucks and the Mayor is threatening to fire us anyway? You gotta make it while you can!
