Just kidding fellow necks, I feel for "JEFFRO", after all who would want their local "STILL SUPPLIER" taken over by "BIG HARDWARE" ??. Added to that, the local gun store may get bought out by "BIG FIREARMS". If that happens, then those necks will riot. All kidding aside, this drama has runs it course. If they built the "DAY WORKER DEPOT", then you have the right not to shop their. That is the "FREE MARKET".<BR/><BR/>2."MAYOR ADVOCATES FOR MORE TRANSIT FUNDS":<BR/>To the lady in the black Mustang driving in Westwood yesterday, the man in the suit was not trying to sell you a "PALETA". He was "HIS POLLONESS" attempting to get you to call "SUCRAMENTO" for more Transit dollors. Our mayor with the ever present cameras nearby, was handing out fliers on funding request for expanding the 405 parking lot.....<BR/><BR/>3. "JROTC UNDER FIRE AT ROOSEVELT HIGH FROM FACULTY":<BR/>If you already didn't know. "ADOVCATION, NOT EDUCATION", is alive and well in LAUSD. Leftist teachers at Roosevelt High School are pushing to remove the JROTC from not only Roosevelt, but all district schools. I guess it is P.C. to wear a "CHE" shirt, post a "CHE" flag in your class, and tell a student in JROTC uniform that you will become "CANNON FODDER" in Iraq. This what you will get if "HIS POLLONESS" and his "FELLOW TRAVELING, POLLONISTAS" are successful in taking over LAUSD. I once had a teacher in high school who once said that he wanted me to become a "GOOD DEMOCRAT", Flunked that lesson.<BR/> <BR/>"FREEDOM AND FREE ENTERPRISE"<BR/><BR/>"RED SPOT OF REASON IN CD 14"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-49439170335371877512007-02-20T11:04:00.000-08:002007-02-20T11:04:00.000-08:00MS -- your tunnel vision and abuse of the "racist"...MS -- your tunnel vision and abuse of the "racist" word have taken over what little common sense you had left. Then again, you're dead! Remember that, MS, you're dead! The LA Times article was so out of whack that I was not sure that the reporter had been anywhere except to the archives with the wonderful historical stuff he put in at the end of the article. I have been active in this No2HomeDepot battle for over 2 years now and have seen support for the "N2HD side" grow with knowledge. Target has made offers to HD. The community wants a general merchandise store. Look at the specs on the community -- why does Home Depot was our slip of a community? The answer is strictly because of the lot size of the property which they do not own but lease!!!!! Go elsewhere, HD, and leave our small community to be the wonderful breath of fresh air that is left to Los Angeles. Leave the Verdugos and the washes and the Angeles National Forest area to those of us who treasure them and appreciate ly them daily. HD, go make hell somewhere else. Yes, MS, I am a proud S-T Nimby.

His topic was AB1381 and the Mayors efforts to bring quality education to all students.<BR/><BR/>The history and purpose of AB1381 was laid out in very virtuous terms. It was also said that LAUSD was the one pushing the unconstitutional argument. (Constitution?)<BR/><BR/>Mr. Saenz went on the explain the merits of having a Council of Mayors and spoke of the stability which the council will bring in assisting a Superintendent in the execution of his duties. He will not be hindered by changing board members who tend to take a wait and see position. ( What about their change in office?)<BR/><BR/>All very interesting and even more interesting was the call to support the mayors reform candidates.<BR/><BR/>The light at the end of the tunnel came through via an opening I am sure Mr. Saenz did not expect. He stated, that if AB1381 is defeated in court and if the reform candidates are not elected, then the Mayor will move to break up LAUSD!<BR/><BR/>So, my friends, if you really want reform and want smaller school districts, then vote against the Mayors candidates and support the legal challenge to AB1381.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-89597081984317560592007-02-20T09:58:00.000-08:002007-02-20T09:58:00.000-08:00Racist?Time to get a new word.
