Afternoon Briefs on the "newest pieces" of the Los Angeles Political Machine for Tuesday

Mayor Antonio Villar and Paris Hilton.

Paris with Antonio Villaraigosa Jr. 

Little did Paris Hilton know in 2007 at the Grammy's after party that she would be posing with two generations of Villar/raigosa politicos. Mayor Antonoi Villar's Princeton educated son Antonio Villaraigosa Jr.   was just elected to the Executive Board of the Los Angeles County Young Democrats. No word whether Parke Skelton had a role in the election of "Lil Tony" Villaraigosa to his first political position (** irony here is if the rumors are true in 2013, the younger Tony will retain the "Villaraigosa Brand" while Papi reverts to Villar via divorce settlement).

** We are seriously considering the creation of the "media enabling award" for a local journalist who strays from the principles of non-bias reporting and engages in PR musings on the behalf of a local political entity. So far we have two nominations with "LA Antonio Times" Columnist Jim Newton's missive promoting a DWP rate increase on the behalf of Clean Water and the City Maven's Alice Walton who's question to Mayor Villar on why the "Health Department" did not shut down Occupy LA, enable the Mayor to momentarily put the blame on someone else for his lack of leadership regarding the "Flea Party Poopout".  

"LA ANTONIA TIMES", R. I. P.

To Steve Lopez,

We at Mayor Sam can empathize with your plight.

After all, with the "ZELL MAN" at the helm of the "MOBILE TRAILER TRIBUNE", the pressure to produce quality news print is on the level with the quality of pole dancers on the roof(Roderick can be your "DOORMAN" to the roof, just a thought).

So you are in a funk over the fact that our esteem Mayor does not have the mental fortitude to focus on a "ONE ON ONE" with you.

You offer to walk with him around Skid Row to discuss the current state of affairs in the bowels of "EASTERN DOWNTOWN", nada?

Want to critique Mirthala on her new show at " MIGHTY RADIOBIMBO 690 AM"?, no go?

You want to ask the Mayor to respond to the Council's numbers cruncher who panned his budget proposals, no way??

Steve, I and the others who are in the decreasing ranks of daily readers of actual newsprint, love your style. Whether it is the "Esteem Cardinal" or "C.A. Rocktard", you "T.J." and Steve Harvey's "The Bottom Ten" are the only reasons I continue this daily ritual of reading the newsprint in hand.

But as a point of reference, when you piss off the "POLITICO FORMERLY KNOWN AS MAYOR ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA, tony villar, with what Tim Rutten wrote,

Perhaps the mayor simply hoped to demonstrate that he really is a "friend
to the department." After all, the ongoing reduction in crime in L.A. is one of
the few unambiguous achievements of a mayoral administration that seems to
generate more unfinished initiatives than an ADD clinic.

......and the Mayor (ADV®) responds with this,

"a cheap shot at people who have ADD" and added, "I think he knows my son
has attention deficit disorder."(M.O. of Mayor to hide behind family member when the "s..." gets deep).

...then rest assure, you (great find on Mirthala's radio show quote), Rutten and your "FISHWRAP OF RECORD" are in the "CASA DE PERRO". Maybe Helfand can plead your case, he is the Mayor's favorite P.R. writer.

In closing, with the endorsement of Obama, Rutten's missive on Mayor, and with the dishing of scribe Lopez, we announce the retirement of the moniker "LA ANTONIA TIMES"...........that is until the next mayoral election in 2009.
