Judge Larry Stirling (ret.) went “all in” for Herman Cain when the Georgian looked like a hopeless long shot. How things have changed! Today Larry tells us what drew he and wife Linda to Cain’s candidacy… My wife and I were certainly pleased to host Herman Cain during one of his earlier campaign appearances. That was in August when he was …
Mayoral Debate Fails To Strike Sparks, DeMaio and Dumanis Stay Out, Is Fletcher’s Heart In Pension Reform?
I really wanted to see the mayoral debate on Wednesday, but my day job kept me until it was too late to go. But from what’s been printed about it, I didn’t miss much. Only two of the top four candidates even showed up — Nathan Fletcher and Bob Filner. Kudos to them for showing up. As for Carl DeMaio …
Curt Hagman Endorses Nathan Fletcher!
Assemblyman and former Mayor of Chino Hills Curt Hagman today announced he has endorsed Nathan Fletcher for mayor of San Diego. Hagman serves on the Assembly Public Safety committee and serves as the Republican Floor Leader. “Nathan is the best choice to lead San Diego into a new era and turn the page on a tough decade,” said Hagman. “As …
Full Transparency Needed in City’s Five-Year Financial Outlook
Yesterday, the City’s Five-Year financial outlook was presented to the Budget and Financial committee meeting and I was very disappointed to see that the true infrastructure deficit was excluded from the City’s financial forecasts. If the full infrastructure deficit is not included I fear that our roads and infrastructure will continue to fall into further disrepair since the City Council …
“It’ll sure suck when they take away your Porsche!”
Occupy San Diego has really been a blessing for those of us who enjoy fascinating—albeit degenerate—distractions. Today I was walking to my office when I saw two (count them, two) protestors posted on the corner of 5th and B, in front of the Wells Fargo building. They were waving their signs at oncoming traffic…and, for whatever reason, they sought validation …

San Diego’s Budget – Impact of Prop D Defeat
Last November’s defeat of the half-cent sales tax measure, Proposition D, was supposed to be the warning shot across the bow that galvanized city leaders into drastic action to cut budget deficits. From the Citizen’s Fiscal Sustainability Task Force Analysis of FY2012 Budget Deficit: In all frankness, the seeming absence of a sense of urgency demonstrated by the City …
San Diego Police Officers Association Backs Fletcher for Mayor
Today the San Diego POA announced its support for Nathan Fletcher in the San Diego mayoral contest. Considering the assumption by many that D.A. Bonnie Dumanis would rake in the bulk of the big law enforcement endorsements, that’s a nugget for Fletcher. The obvious foremost reason this is a surprise — Fletcher is in disagreement with the POA on a …

Daily Caller: Communist and Nazi Parties both endorse Occupy movement
This can’t be true! From the Daily Caller— Red, White and Angry : Communist, Nazi parties endorse ‘Occupy’ protests In a move that may redefine the term “strange bedfellows,” the American Nazi Party issued an official endorsement of the Occupy Wall Street protest movement on Sunday afternoon. The announcement put the organization, a self-described “National Socialist” political party, in company with …

Rick Amato to Speak at Occupy San Diego
From radio host Rick Amato… Greetings, Friends! As I wrote in the previous issue of AMATO FOR LIBERTY, remarkably organizer(s) of the ‘Occupy San Diego’ protest have extended an invitation for Yours Truly to speak at their rally. They did so after taking exception to an article written here titled Goofballs and Misfits which featured a video interview with a …
Working Together to Create 21st Century Jobs
Today, I was joined by Assembly Speaker John Perez and members of the Select Committee on Job Creation for the New Economy to probe how the legislature can help create innovative jobs in the 21st Century. The meeting focused on California’s economy, what Los Angeles-area leaders are doing to foster job growth and to attract 21st Century jobs. Witnesses emphasized …
Steve Danon for 3rd District S.D. Board of Supes: “The Steamroller” says John Dadian!
This from the North County Times today: …The strong start may have kept some potential candidates from running, observers said. “I’m calling him the steamroller,” said John Dadian, a San Diego political consultant who has known Danon for 20 years. “I can’t understand why nobody’s jumped in yet. I think they’re afraid of Steve. I think (they’re afraid) with good …

Poll: 70% of San Diegans Oppose Chargers Stadium Subsidy
According to a new Survey USA poll, San Diego Mayor Jerry Sanders’s proposed public subsidy for a new Chargers stadium is a tough sell to the public. In the October 13th poll that surveyed 500 adults in the City of San Diego, 70% of respondents opposed an annual $38 million taxpayer subsidy to fund a new football stadium for 30 …
What??? Occupy Portland: Protesters Sing F*ck the USA???
I see them using electric guitars, which are either being powered by generators that are run by fuel from big oil, or power from Portland Electric. I doubt they would have enough solar panels to run their equipment. They would have more credence if they were using non-electric acoustic guitars. Probably more credence if they were all wearing clothing which …
SURPRISE! Media Cheer Wall Street Occupiers But Jeered Tea Partiers
For us limited government advocates, there’s nothing surprising in the story’s revelations below. But it’s nice to have the facts actually quantified, with the blatant liberal MSM bias documented. Yes, the source is biased to the right, but I doubt anyone who has been following media coverage even superficially would disagree with the conclusions of this analysis. For the short …
