He knows how Sacramento works (or doesn't work).<br />"Go Along Galatzan" Abbreviated as GAG (common dictionary definitions to choke or as a noun "a joke) has done nothing but disservice to the City. There is no conceivable way one can be a top notch prosecutor and a top notch school board member dealing with a deeply troubled school district at the same time. Something had to suffer. In this case schools and public safety both suffered. Two years in the school board job and already hankering to move on. Tamar pay your dues and finish at least one term on the school board. Perhpas in 2012 you can be rewarded with an asswembly seat when Mike Feuer is termed out.

Anyone who's been around the LA political scene has heard it. <br /><br />Additionally, it wasn't a quiet rumor that Wendy was running for Controller so I'm sure Tamar knew exactly what she was doing when she ran for LAUSD. Once elected breaking ties with those who helped get her into office. What does that say about loyalty? I don't care if it is the Mayor or Joe Shmoe, you don't forget about the people who helped get you where you are. It's hypocritical and makes a person appear untrustworthy.<br /><br />Tamar is a classist who will fight to bring more rights to people who already have them rather than learning about and drawing attention to her underserved constituents just as she as as School Board Member. <br /><br />She has little idea what she is doing in LAUSD and will have even less of an idea in City Council.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-76895025033002242892009-07-28T23:18:22.813-07:002009-07-28T23:18:22.813-07:00Is that the same Richard Riordan who endorsed Anto...Is that the same Richard Riordan who endorsed Antonio Villaraigosa not just the fist time, but this second time?

Just like Cooley did for David Berger while he campaigned and was on every blog trashing Jack Weiss, as long as he trashed Jack Weiss. With a promise of a carrot they've now delivered on and more. <br /><br />So IF Tamar doesn't get into the run-off they will use her and reward her well to trash one of the other leading candidates while finding another patsy to "run" for them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-14779434179981632802009-07-28T22:47:18.913-07:002009-07-28T22:47:18.913-07:009:43

I know she was touting how she was the perfect person to be LAUSD boardmember because she has a kid who was starting LAUSD. <br /><br />And I know she said that she had such a great, fresh perspective as a mom. And she was just PERFECT for the job and cared so much about kids and parents. <br /><br />Well, now that kids and parents and principals and teachers have invested these recent years getting Tamar up to speed, getting to know her, and she still has a lot to follow through on as in things that she started...<br /><br />THAT WAS BEFORE SHE KNEW THE CD2 COUNCIL SEAT WOULD BE OPEN, WHICH PAYS A LOT MORE, HAS BETTER BENEFITS, IS A LONGER TERM AND OVERALL MUCH MORE FINANCIALLY REWARDING POSITION!<br /><br />Forget the committments. Forget the promises. Forget the kids and parents. Make that money!<br /><br />Let's face it, Tamar has know all along this LAUSD thing was just a "warm up spot" until she could slide into a council seat on the backs of Villaraigosa, kids, parents and the community. <br /><br />I think she should be rewarded with your vote. Especially since she is using her LAUSD position to garner support since she still oversees a big chunk of district dollars. <br /><br />Wow, don't be fooled by her down home demeanor. This lady is a shark! (But again, we already knew that since she is a procecutor.)<br /><br />AND NOW THAT SHE HAS BEEN CERTIFIED AS A CITY COUNICL CANDIDATE, I'M SURE SHE WILL BE STEPPING DOWN FROM HER DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY POSITION WITH THE CITY DURING THE CAMPAIGN?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-30436360831837070632009-07-28T20:56:35.982-07:002009-07-28T20:56:35.982-07:00How could anyone consider Tamar Galatzan after she...How could anyone consider Tamar Galatzan after she had no problem jumping in bed with Villaraigosa to get elected onto the LAUSD school board. That's some deal with the devil she was willing to take. She may have deviated from what the mayor wanted, but when it came to deciding whether she would hop in the mayor car for the heist, she had no problem saying, "Yes." <br /><br />Tamar can say now, that the mayor is more of a liability than an asset, "I parted ways with the mayor." But she said, "yes" to him in the first place. That goes to her character and values.<br /><br />And you can say, "Don't judge me based on the fact that my husband has been on all the wrong sides of the issues, against the community: I just sleep with him and we just have kids together." Hmmm, again, it goes to her character and willing to go along with anything. So she LOVES her husband, just doesn't agree with him on anything that may piss off people who may support her otherwise. <br /><br />But hey, she was also on the Jack Weiss team, so what do you expect. <br /><br />Just call her "Go Along Galatzan."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-16087561020606137152009-07-28T20:10:38.767-07:002009-07-28T20:10:38.767-07:00Okay, I wrote it this morning and I'll write i...Okay, I wrote it this morning and I'll write it again.
