U-T "Deeply Mediocre," Says Columnist Discussing Globe
Oh, no, I didn't mean to imply that the columnist is complicit. Methinks the columnist is being fed something that ain't quite Kosher.— June 17, 2009 8:11 a.m.
U-T "Deeply Mediocre," Says Columnist Discussing Globe
Response to #12: There may be another angle to the Times' openness. They could well be using the reporter to squeeze more concessions out of the unions. What a mess. The Globe was exponentially better than the U.T., in terms of writing quality and it is still in danger of failing. Apparently (and sadly), the quality of the printed product doesn't make much of a difference.— June 17, 2009 4:32 a.m.
Whitacre Wrong Choice for GM, Says Graef Crystal
Don, if Whitacre is not the man to clean up the company, then why was he appointed? To keep the lid on something?— June 16, 2009 8:02 a.m.
Sempra spins Sunrise Powerlink in the Union-Tribune
Don, this blog has a problem. Observant observers have learned to ignore anything posted by anon92107. We don't even read it. This can't be a good thing, if a full and free exchange of SANE ideas is the Reader's goal.— August 15, 2008 7:59 a.m.
County Retail Sales Dropping Sharply; Tax Receipts Will Feel It
Unpublicized or underpublicized meetings that would have created at least some negative response if the voters had known about them. That fits my definition of "behind the voters' backs." We can split hairs, but it seems clear that if the voting public had known we were promising benefits to a small segment of the population (no matter how honorable and decent that segment) that could bankrupt the city, the voters would have stopped it. That's why they weren't alerted.— July 16, 2008 1:44 p.m.
County Retail Sales Dropping Sharply; Tax Receipts Will Feel It
Gentlemen, These arguments are getting us nowhere. The City cannot afford the benefits that were granted behind the voters' backs. It doesn't matter whether or not they are high enough, we can't pay them! Bottom line is that one way or another, basic economics is going to force us to reduce those benefits, probably by not offering them to new hires. That's a real shame, but it's reality.

County Democrats Endorse Aguirre for City Attorney; Only One Vote Goes for Opponent
"Riddled with holes, unsupported facts and innuendo, combined with an occasional fact here and there, Mr. Aguirre is his own worst enemy and will be the root cause of his political demise." I did not realize that Mr. Aguirre is riddled with unsupported facts and innuendo. Someone needs a remedial grammar class.— July 9, 2008 12:07 p.m.
Booze Ban Driving Homeless Inland?
I would hate to be the person trying to argue that the beach was not a problem area prior to the ban. There is no credibility to that argument! The beach ban came because some people will not behave unless a cop makes them. The rest of us shouldn't have to put up with their behavior, or pay for the additional police presence that is required just to control them.— July 1, 2008 12:10 p.m.
City Auditor Says Blackwater Didn't Misrepresent Self, but Criticizes City Procedures
JustWondering, It is always important to enforce the law. If one entity is allowed to get a permit without following the rules, then maybe the next is, too. Before you know it, the City is in court, fighting a permit, and the other party is able to prove that the City has already looked the other way on 25 similar violations. Think this might cause the City to lose the case? Besides, this is just the kind of negligence that almost allowed Sunroad to get away with it..— June 6, 2008 8 a.m.
