Cut and Paste Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Scene for Wednesday
Lets call them the "Frivolous Five".
First lets give the names, 1. Janice Hahn, 2. Richard "Zorro Marxist" Alarcon, 3. Herb Wesson, 4. Tony Cardenas, ..... and lastly City Council President Eric Gartraitor.
These are the five who don't give a rat's rear end that your financial capacity to support their careless financial follies, are near finite in this government caused recession. What corruption on Hope Street? Not in their collectivist minds. The DWP rates payers must contribute for the betterment of the collective. In this case it means paying a higher tribute for the cause of a "greener LA". Or in reality, it is to better the "bottom line" of the likes of Al Gore, Ari Swiller, Keith Brackpool and their graying allies on the "Ecoleft".
One shouldn't be surprise that the "Frivolous Five" would use the funeral for former LAPD Chief Daryl Gates, and the fact that fellow Councilman Bernard Parks would be in attendance, to make their power play in the interest of "exclusive green few".
Some may disagree with me, but the dubious science that provides the premise of our so call "Global Warming" hysteria, is nothing more than a front to take more of your hard earned money and enrich the "carbon credit deposits" of the likes of Al Gore, who by the way is one of the biggest investors in the carbon credits scheme.
But most of you , if not all would agree, that wasteful and corrupt governments, do more to impact our communal environments. That is easy for Angelinos to see in this growing DWP scandal at 200 Spring Street.
Does anyone remember how Mayor Antonio Parkervillar's "Million Tree Initiative" was suppose to remake our city into one big giant clean, green canopy? But the only green I remember was the $100+ dollars that the DWP was paying per tree to be planted by the Los Angeles Conservation Corp and has anyone seen Lisa Sarno around the city lately, planting any trees? But I digress.
But the continuing nefarious doings withing the Horseshoe at City Hall is getting harder to digest with each act of political deceit.
OTHER NEWS:
** City Councilman Budget Committee Chairperson Bernard Parks and his committee has started their public hearing process to review Mayor Antonio Parkervillar's propose 2010-2011 budget.
And what is Park's one word response to Mayor Parkervillar's budget proposal? Fantasy!
** Heads up to Recreation and Parks supporters city-wide, Rec. and Park General Manager J. K. Mukri will testify in front of Park's Budget Committee sometime Friday. If Mayor Parkervillar's budget for Rec. and Parks is accepted, guess how many employees will be gone after Labor Day.
A. 100 Full timers?
B. 125 Full time, no part timers?
C. 125 Full Time, 110 Part timers?
D. 125 Full time, 750 Part timers?
Then link here to see how the unionize employees will be replaced if Mayor Parkervillar has his way.
** In the next few days, various Department General Managers will testify before Park's Budget Committee. But while the GM's will do their best to protect the interest of their respective departments, the Coalition of Unions have released their "Keep LA Strong Budget Proposal".

Red Spot, you should call your column "But I digress" and write that at the opening of everything you do.

Let's not forget all of the "Waste"
for "Special event fee Waivers"
Like Garcetti's "Lust for Lace"
Valentine's Day Pornography event.
http://www.welcometolace.org/events
The Council was asked so many times to stop the waivers as it was costing millions, did they listen?
Vivian said:
On Monday Red Spot wonder if someone was slander? Slobodan's comment is proof noone was slander! I'll say it again. NOONE WAS SLANDER!!!

Parks is playing games and "pretending" he actually is fiscally responsible. He was in his office which has a sqwaker box so he can hear the council meeting going on. He knew about the DWP vote and is lying saying he thought it was just a discussion Pleeaasssseeee. They are all in bed with DWP. The Mexican Mafia thugs like Alarcon and Cardenas are the lamest morons on council. They need to go back to a charter school to learn how to speak intelligently instead of like the gang banger thugs they are.

When posting about the City's financial situation, shouldn't the column be called "Cut and WASTE Briefs" (sted, "cut and paste").

If this City is on the verge of bankrupcty then why is city council allowing the illegals to march again on May 1st costing hundreds of thousands of dollars that we don't have. How many jobs is this costing? The illegals already had their protest back in March of this year. Now, they get to waste our tax payer dollars MARCHING AGAIN ON SATURDAY. THIS IS TOTAL BULLSHIT!!!! Send your councilmember an email saying where are they getting the money for this?

Good point Parque.
Red Spot in CD 14 said:
Speaking of "cut and waste".
Rumor out of CD 14 is that Huizar is using the CLARTS Fund to pay blog posters.

OMG the blonde idiot bimbo and the loser Ed Reyes who can't put a sentence together are going to boycott Arizona. They DO NOT SPEAK FOR LOS ANGELES.
"""More than half of the folks living in Los Angeles are Latino, and for us to do nothing is unacceptable," said Reyes.
Hey dip shit, there are thousands of Mexican Americans in Los Angeles Latinos who support enforcing the law. This isn't about immigration. This is about people who for years have gotten away with breaking the law. They have the choice to become citizens but they are lazy and want everything handed to them. You go ARIZONA!!!

Dodger fans who say they will boycott the Arizona baseball team when they come to play shows just how ignorant they are. Do they not realize its the Dodgers who they will hurt not buying tickets? WTF?? The fools are coming out in droves now with our dumb council members. They can't balance our budget and have the city in a financial crisis but they want to bud into Arizona's business. They are bafoons like someone has said.

Los Angeles is on the verge of bankruptcy so I want to know where is city council getting the close to $1 MILLION it is going to cost to allow the illegals to march again. This is total bullshit. Our tax payer dollars is being used to allow people who are breaking the law to march in our city. WHERE IS COUNCILMAN PARKS SAYING WE CAN'T AFFORD THIS... WHO APPROVED THE PERMITS FOR THEM TO MARCH IN OUR STREETS WITHOUT PAYING A DIME????
May Day rallies in more than 70 U.S. cities. "The marches and demonstrations are going to be far more massive than they otherwise would have been," said Juan Jose Gutierrez, a Los Angeles rally organizer who runs an immigration assistance company.
