"His courage and perseverance during the state budget crisis has earned him nationwide respect. I look forward to the City of Los Angeles working more closely with the State Controller during this budget crisis."

hmmmmmmmm. He must've had a good reason not to back Paul Krackwhorian.
Another Hacopian trick to prop up Tamar's failing campaign.
He's sending Tamar an IOU for his donation...
I think he is endorsing Tamar because she likes to bake cookies and be seen playing baseball and tell you that she came in second in the LAUSD 10K run. All of that makes her qualified for the job. Using you LAUSD money to send out mailers when absentee ballots are in the same mailbox is always better than a box full of brownies, anyway. When she says, "WE still have much, much more to do," what she really means, "I hope to be making much, much more money and walking away soon."
Worthless endorsement.
Tamar's decision to intentionally flout City ethics rules because they're poorly enforced is brazen and sick.
As a Councilmember she'd be power-mad and would listen to no one. Essel and Krekorian are much better choices.
and who cares?
As a Councilmember she'd be power-mad and would listen to no one.
I know.
love the IOU comment
Hey, where do I go to discuss Los Angeles politics?
You're at the right place.
When your own candidate has nothing going for him or her, no experience in public service, keep making nasty comments that show your lack of character while filing bogus "ethics" charges and attacking the ethics commission if nothing sticks. Shut up Shallman, your dirty tricks playbook is out of new tricks, we can read you a mile away.
What dirty tricks? Did she, or didn't she not do what is being reported? It's not a matter of who is saying what about this. It's about what the candidate did and goes to her character and what can be expected from her as Council representative. Do you think there is anyone out there, who no matter how much they liked Galatzan in the past, who liked this move on her part? Sorry, not about people buzzing about it, it's about what was done by the candidate.
10:57AM you ain`t seen anything yet from slimy,sleazy,lying Shallman.He is just warming up Tamara for the kill on the weekend before election day.
