Coliseum, Bitter Bernie and Shadow Governments

Boi from Troy counts up the votes with the coming decision required by the Coliseum Commission on the matter of the USC lease. In less that two days, this group of boobs which include Bitter Bernie, Zev Yarovslasky and Yvonne Burke could chase the Trojans to Pasadena.

Along with the LA Times, I continue my call for the Commission to vote themselves out of business and turn over management (not the pink slip for some of you dummies who don't get it) of the stadium to USC.

In other news, in light of the Commission's nonsense, the Former Fishwrap of Record takes a look at joint powers authorities (of which the Commission is one), a unique Frankenstein monster of governments that allows multiple jurisdictions to take control but avoid accountability to a single group of voters for various government or marginally government functions. The OLD GRAY HAG ON SPRING STREET however fails to note the most notorious and evil of JPAs, that shadow government known as the Mountains Recreation and Conservation Authority which consists of the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy and various local agencies.
