Mayor Sam's Hotsheet for Sunday
Some LA Times endorsments for March 3rd primary candidates coming through. In a stunning blow to Jack Weiss the Times has endorsed prosecutor Carmen Trutanich for City Attorney saying that he has "a strong vision for the office, with tough prosecution of violence tempered by a real-world recognition that gang crime must be answered with alternatives for youth." Holding their nose the Times endorsed Wendy Greuel for Controller over Nick Patsaouras saying that :Patsaouras has been instrumental in moving the region's transportation plans forward," but Greuel is more inclined to twist arms in City Hall, a trait they view as important for a Controller.LA Weekly's Daniel Heimpel has read the fine print of Measure B and finds some similarities to past shady LA boondoggles, despite the promises from B's proponents that this time is "different." Heimpel retells the story of a DWP plan to invest $2 million in an electric scooter company that flopped as well as a department plan to generate wind power that wound up costing three times as much and hasn't produced a single megawatt.
The LAUSD is moving ahead to build a new school in Echo Park but can't move forward until they get an approval from Councilman Eric Garcetti. Garcetti is upset about aspects of the design of the school and won't sign off until LAUSD makes the changes he wants. Speaking through a spokeshole Garcetti said he "has requested that the district review its plans for the school and see if it can be made more appropriate in size, scale, and design for the neighborhood."
Looks like Jan Perry's goofy fast food ban isn't working. Consumers in South Central are eating at places such as McDonalds as opposed to Subway because they can get more food for their money. Speaking to a USC blog, Marlon Grissom a resident of Watts who supports the ban still thinks it won't change his neighbor's food choices, "They wouldn't go to the healthy places. They'd still go to KFC."
I know this is old news but I didn't know it. I had always heard that there was a rumor that entertainer Carol Channing was really a man. Well that's not probably true but for decades Channing hid the fact that she is African-American. Who knew?

Angelenos complain and continue to reelect these same ineffective politicos over and over which is why the politicos do as he/she pleases with no accountability to their constituents. Don’t be fooled by the colorful fliers and twenty second media sound bites during elections.
A NO vote for Villaraigosa
A NO vote for Weiss, and
A NO vote for Greuel
Congrats to NUCH!!!
Finally the people of the City of Los Angeles can see a TRU leader for city atty.
Way to go NUCH!!!
Good bye JACK-ASS-WEISS!!! Start looking for a new job in the slip and fall yellow pages.

Will Walter Moore confirm he is moving to France if he loses the election?
If that is true I find it sad.
That puts so-called patriot Walter in line with other America lovers like Susan Sarandon, Sean Penn and Alec Baldwin.
Why does Walter Moore want to move to France? No Mexicans? Walter they have an illegal immigration problem there too and the French are even more hateful than your Minutemen.
Next question:
Why does Zuma Dogg act like an idiot when he's sitting in the audience in Council and sees himself on the big-screen?
Vote Phil Jennerjahn!
Phil Who?????
Phil, no one is going to vote for you because of Zuma Dogg in the bleachers.
Or maybe you should go with this as your campaign flier:
VOTE PHIL JENERJAN
Because sometimes Zuma Dogg smiles when someone mentions his name and the camera picks it up.
With Phil Jenerjan as mayor, he promises to make the city council cameras move in closer on the speaker, so Zuma Dogg is not seen sitting in the bleachers.
What happens to the HOZ Loon in the condo?
Did Wacko's wife leave him?
Is he shacking up a loony in his condo?
If it's not true, why is he ignoring the questions?
The LA Times has stepped up and endorsed Trutanich for City Attorney..................
We, the citizens of LA need to get out there and vote
TRUTANICH for LA City Attorney

because he's the biggest narcissistic clown ever.
The way the L.A. TIMES writes it's wishy-washy endorsement of WENDY GRUEL just shows that they don't recognize the damage TONY does and are in denial that WENDY is one of TONY'S strongest puppets.
They want a controller who can work with the Mayor and the Council? Well, SHE can since they are all under TONY'S umbrella of influence. How does the Times editor or whoever is the one left to try his or her hand at an editorial to convince us that the Controller in the person of WENDY GRUEL is going to be able to call anyone out for missteps?
They must be new to L.A. and are relying on Wendy's campaign brochures.
I guess they wrote up Nuch's endorsement before JACK WEISS could get his flyer into their hands.
This madness in the rationale experessed in the TIMES' endorsements still is consistent with the backwards style that was used to endorse another VILLARAIGOSA team mate, MONICA GARCIA, unopposed for Dist. 2 of LAUSD and they still loaded the endorsement with some obvious qualifications and reservations.
Why bother endorsing her for anything?- it came out that way -they might have said it directly: "Sure, she's lousy, but maybe she'll get better. We hope that anyway." Not anything to be proud of, Ms. Garcia.
And so Wendy gets some L.A. Times'-imagined backbone to stand up to somebody at City Hall? It will probably end up being the unhappy constituents and their complaints to urge her to DO something about problems that TONY and Co. do, if they win like they expect to.
If that happens, we are all going to have to turn our pockets inside out for fare to leave L.A. with what little will be left after the TAX and fees become effective.
The bunch are such liars needing to continue as career politicians and the Times can't say any of it to save it's very literally jeopardized life.

The Narcissistic Clown Award goes to Walter Wacko Moore of the $200,000 hats.
All around the country people wonder why American citizens are tolerating the illegal immigration problem. It has become worse over the last couple of years. They march in our streets demanding rights, they disrespect us citizens, our country, and our values yet demand everything we have. California has one of the worst problems, yet you continue to disrespect anyone that wants to fix the problem. Maybe California should become part of Mexico. The drug lords are taking over Mexico. Arizona has massive problems and is preparing to defend and protect their state. Sounds like California is ready to just be run over. If you are going to lay down and take it we in this country cannot continue to support you and will have to deny federal tax dollars in your state and we will. Pelosi is out believe me she is out. There are 49 states that will ensure that!
Either become Mexico or take action.
WALTER MOORE FOR MAYOR!
Illegal Immigration is a federal issue, loon. Anything Wacko promises to do would be turned over by the courts and the ACLU. Wacko is a liar whose wife left him. He will cost LA millions in anti immigration litigation that is against federal law because he's a racist who gets money from haters like the HOZ racists who want racist hillbilly Wacko bumpkin stickers and vanity hats.
WHAT A SLAP IN THE FACE FOR WACKO-JACKO!!!!
Even the liberal LA Slimes can't endorse him.
Why would anyone vote for this bozo?
Amerian, Trutanich, Weiss, Berger . . .
ANYBODY BUT WEISS!!!!!!!
4:46 sounds a lot like kevin james. maybe that is kevin or his listener.
I SUPPORT KATHLEEN SUZY EVANS FOR CONTROLLER AND DAVID BERGER FOR D.A. CHECK THEM OUT, TRUTETHICH IS AN INSIDER AND J. WEISS STINKS!! LETS CLEAN UP THIS CORRUPT TOWN.
My thoughts on the L.A. Times endorsement of El Pollo Antonio:
