[Pictured: Douchebag-Dummy Municipal Decimater Antonio Viagraosa showed up, "better than ever," thanks to his girlfriend, yoga lessons and improved diet to deliver DEVASTATING budget news to L.A. City Council. HE WAS BOOED (LAKERS-STYLE) UPON HIS ANNOUNCEMENT by the people who used to cheer him. IT'S OVER!]NOTES FROM TODAY'S COUNCIL MEETING WHERE COUNCIL ASKED QUESTIONS OF THE MAYOR. SEE VIDEO HERE.
Janice Hahn is like an arsonist who shows up after starting the fire to lecture about fire safety. ZIP IT, DUMMY! AND CHANGE YOUR TONALITY!- IF JANICE HAHN AGREES TO KEEP HER MOUTH SHUT FOR ONE MEETING, Zuma Dogg will take THREE MONTHS off from public comment! I BEG YOU, Janice!
- THE SOUND OF JANICE HAHN'S VOICE AND THE NUTTY, UN-INFORMED BULLSHIT SHE SPEWS MAKES ME WISH I WAS NEVER BORN. People HATE you!
- "We took too long. We all took too long. They took too long in their negotiations, in saying, 'no' to virtually everything." - Mayor Villar
- "Layoffs, cuts and furloughs were, 'non-starters' declarations of war." - Villaragiosa's reply to CM Greig "Not My Fault" Smith
- "How did we get to the point that these are the only options on the table? Why were other options rejected?" - CM Smith
- @Matt_Szabo what's with your "Watchful eye" profile picture? Prince already did that on his album cover and is odd for mayor's spokeshole.
- Revenue, cuts, collections, pension reform, consolidations are all things we can do, but in the end, LAYOFFS will be part of the solution.
- "I am not in favor of NEW TAXES on the ballot. The PEOPLE in the Valley are saying, "NO NEW TAXES." - L.A. Councilman Dennis Zine
- CARDENAS TO MAYOR: "If we were brothers, we'd be the brothers that mom says, 'Can't these two just get along?'" Competing corrupted forces!
- "Mr. Mayor, we really don't have a plan to deal with THIS YEAR'S deficit." - L.A. City Counciloser Jose "Please Hold My Time" Huizar.
- "If we were brothers, we would be the two brothers that mother says, 'Gosh, can't these two just get along?'" (Competing corrupted forces!)
- ED REYES, of course, had to weigh-in to remind everyone if you cut social programs then, "kids join gangs!" (Right on cue, Ed!)
- "My office too TEN TIMES THE FURLOUGHS (as City Council offices)." - A. Villaraigosa. Garcetti says council took same $ cuts as mayor's.
- "I'm here today because urgency is not just knocking on our door, but breaking the door down." - L.A. Mayor Villar (Way to handle business!)
- ERIC GARCETTI agreed on camera to "GIVE" a portion of the "council controlled" (slush) fund (not just loan it). WHAT PORTION THOUGH?
- REMEMBER, MAIN thing during budget discussions to keep in mind: DO NOT LOOSE SIGHT OF CONTINUING TO CONGRATULATE EACH OTHER on LEADERSHIP!
- Mayor wants to borrow council's slush fund to fill reserve, "then, council can take control of those funds at an appropriate time."
- Mayor Villaraiogsa on what credit downgrade will mean: "Will make borrowing more difficult and in some cases IMPOSSIBLE."
- "This is a crisis and we must act accordingly. Ending the year without sufficient reserves WILL TRIGGER SEVERE DOWNGRADES." - Villaraigosa
- "We can't continue to say, 'no,' to everything and the status quo cannot be maintained." - A. Villaraiogsa. (Also mentioned council fund!)
- L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa (as usual) had hard time spitting out sentences at today's Council meeting. He's linguistically challenged.
- MEGA-FAILURE Mayor got BOOED in Council chambers when he was introduced today. I guess that's not even worth mentioning, it's so obvious.
- "We don't have a lot of options here." - L.A.'s BIGGEST LOSER (L.A. FAILURE Mayor Antonio VIllaraiogsa) WOW, you REALLY fucked it up, good!
- POLICE, FIRE & LABOR: ALL COMPLAINING that council is putting up a "wall" and not engaging conversation with workers on how to solve crisis.
- JANICE HAHN: What you say sounds good as a campaigner, but you are a DUMB, DITZBAG, IDIOT and I consider your MOUTH a public safety hazard.
- RT @LANow: Villaraigosa tells L.A. council that layoffs are only way to avoid 'financial tailspin' http://bit.ly/aoAORi
- ALARCLOWN STILL A HOT-HEAD, ASSHOLE. This time to Miguel Santana. Garcetti had to tell Alacrclown to SHUT UP and let him answer! (LOL!)
- "We took too long. (The unions) who said, 'no' to everything...We all took too long." - L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa
- Greig Smith confronts Villaragiosa: "How did we get into this position? Were there not things we could have done?"
- "I am personally liable should the city ever be in the situation where we could not meet our obligations." - L.A. Mayor Antonio Villaraiogsa
- "There is no situation where layoffs will not be a part of the solution. LAYOFFS WILL BE PART OF THE SOLUTION!" - Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa
