So-Called Recovery Sputters. Unemployment Rises, Jobs Barely Up
QE is a JOKE! Just say it.— December 3, 2010 9:52 a.m.
So-Called Recovery Sputters. Unemployment Rises, Jobs Barely Up
CA has had a 9%+ UE for over 19 straight months. That is the U-3 UE rate, which means the true UE rate-the U-6 rate- is double that. The U-6 UE rate is 21.8% where it has been for the last straight 18 months. We are in uncharted waters.— December 3, 2010 9:51 a.m.

Don, Goldsmith has no backbone. That is the bottom line. I know he has been in the public sector basically his entire life-and does not want to rock the boat, but the boat is SINKING and he is the one with the power to make history by making some legal challenges, but he makes excuses all day long as why he THINKS a new and novel legal challenge will fail-instead of thinking of the ways it can WIN. That is the difference between him and Mike Aguirre-Mike stepped up to the plate and took some swings-he struck out once or twice-but he wa stepping up and had the possibility to hit the homerun (and may have if his cases were followed through on). Goldsmith is too scared to even enter the batters box. All I want Godlsmith to do is STEP UP to the plate and take a swing.— December 3, 2010 9:47 a.m.
Who'll Buy LA Times? Platinum? More Likely Murdoch
The LA Times in the early days was the spittin' image of Murdoch's Fox TV ============= Like 100 yuears ago. Ottis Chandler made the LA Times into the best daily paper in the nation IMO. I preferred it in the 80's and 90's over the NYT. You were really the best part of the UT back then-and I always wondered why you stayed at the UT when I thought you could be at an LAT or NYT paper.— December 2, 2010 9:38 p.m.

I NEED HELP
Dog rescue from shelters...in fact this morning I just picked up this gigantic Pit Bull named Samsone that is probably the most low key and friendly dog I have ever worked with. So far he has met 4 people on the 3 walks I had him on today and ALL of them said he was a "scary dog" (the idiot that dumped Samsone in the shelter cropped his ears) and I said you now have hurt his feelings and need to pet his head and hug him, and once they did that they could not believe how friendly he was. Incredible dog, I wish I could keep him, but I am only going to foster him until the 9th, when he flies to Canada to his forever home. It is going to be sad to let this guy go........he is such a love bug. Crawled right up next to me on the bed this afternoon and had to be touching me when he took his nap....... Dr. Nagell's new building!!!..I learned of it here in the Reader! I know the building exactly (that he has bought), good guy I am sure-but I personally have not met him yet.— December 2, 2010 5:02 p.m.
Chula Vista Prepares for Cross-Border Violence and More
$407,974 comes in and $407,974 goes out... ======================================== here, let me fix this for you Founder; "$407,974 comes in and $407,974 goes in the toilet to be flushed away..." Thius is a HUGE waste- total watse- of taxpayer money for a white elephant that will not return even one penny on the dollar for the "investment".— December 2, 2010 4:54 p.m.
Who'll Buy LA Times? Platinum? More Likely Murdoch
Wow, the LA Times went BK within 6 months of being sold, and here we are selling it again. I would imagine the HQ's in downtown LA go with the sale???? Awesome building in an awesome location right next door to City Hall, the new Police HQ's building and the federal court building.— December 2, 2010 4:52 p.m.

Goldsmith is a wussy. That wimp should be in court RIGHT NOW seeking an injunction to stop the 13th check while at the same time seeking a declaration from the court that ALL excess earnings should be applied to the deficit. What a loser Goldsmith is. And these clowns think Prop D could pass when these frauds show up on a daily or weekly basis? Please.— December 2, 2010 2:01 p.m.
