Expensive race card
No doubt the Chamber of Commerce will have a place for Mr. Goldsmith. They pay off loyal former city officials, ain't that right Mayor Sanders?— November 6, 2014 3:49 p.m.
Expensive race card
So your theory is that the City Attorney's office was hiding memos from Filner's office that had be sanitized in the first place? That is ... interesting.— November 6, 2014 3:41 p.m.
Election rewards for-profit schools (except Bridgepoint)
And that's where strong leadership from Obama could have rallied the Democratic base and the Democratic Congress. We were ready for a transformative president after the eight dark years of Bush/Cheney and the support would have been there. But they never even tried. Would it have been easy? No, but that's what leadership is all about and it would have been worth the fight. Let's face it Obama's poor rating has almost as much to do with disappointed former supporters (like me) as with reactionary Republicans. Then there is the Democrats' proclivity for neoliberal trade agreements, NAFTA and TPP, which of course is another bag of cats altogether that I just don't understand.— November 6, 2014 2:24 p.m.
Election rewards for-profit schools (except Bridgepoint)
It has to be asked, what happened to the Democrats? Where did they motivate the base and who exactly is that base? I've was a Democrat for most of my life. My first vote was cast for George McGovern in 72 and continued up during the 2008 election when I sent candidate Obama money and voted for him. I've chaired a union political action committee and worked on campaigns. Then came the 2008-2010 Democratic controlled congress, both houses, and a Democratic President and what did we get? A Heritage Foundation health care plan. Does it get coverage to people who didn't have it before? Yes but compared to single payer national health care it's a capitalist dream. Forced to purchase health care coverage from for profit health care insurers the Supreme Court called it a tax. Single payer, call it Medicare for All, would have been just an expansion of the current system for seniors. An already approved by the courts health care system. But they didn't do that. A tragic waste of an opportunity that may not come again. If they had done this it would have ensured their reelection for a generation. Just like Social Security did back in the 30's.— November 6, 2014 11:47 a.m.
Expensive race card
It's funny cause Filner was a Freedom Marcher and Jones is black but playing the race card against a former Freedom Marcher without any cause. What's even funnier is the two hundred thousand dollars the City Attorney's office is costing the tax payers to cover it up. The city could have used that for sidewalks and street lights on 37th Street but I don't think I have any banker neighbors in the neighborhood.— November 6, 2014 10:51 a.m.
Wouldn't it be funny?
I find the shirt to be mocking of hipsters so ... therefore ironic and hip? Yet would a real hipster wear such a tight tee?— November 5, 2014 6:41 p.m.
PUC commissioners get freebies
Mike Aguirre continues to be the people's lawyer years after being the City Attorney. Considering the current City Attorney's passed case of the Chalked Bank Sidewalk the only one the people have. My admiration for him seems justified.— November 5, 2014 11:03 a.m.
DeMaio's foe backed by big spending biotech lobby
It could suggest a pay for play. Just saying that it's a fine line that exist between freedom of speech and bribery and not if it's been crossed. This is just one of the problems with our current electoral financial system that puts money ahead of voters.— November 4, 2014 9:52 a.m.
Sweepstakes loser to be on "vacation" for months
I didn't think of that Don, must be why I'm such a fan of yours. Your best usually is.— November 4, 2014 7:56 a.m.
Sweepstakes loser to be on "vacation" for months
These scams only attract the greedy and gullible.— November 3, 2014 10:24 a.m.
