Dead Elvis finally gets off toilet!(doesn’t flush)

So Matt Gonzalez isn’t going to run because there just isn’t enough time to put together a credible campaign? This from the guy who has been churning out op-ed pieces for months telling us that an entry on the last day to apply for the race for mayor would give him plenty of time? Put simply, he’s a liar and a cad.

The worst thing that Gonzo’s ego did to the Left over the last year was to keep other up and coming Progressive candidates with a heartbeat (Daly and Mirkarimi come to mind) … he kept them out of the race and from putting together campaign structures because he kept up the pretense that he would, in the end, have the balls to run. I am like totally convinced that Gonzalez did this because he is pathologically jealous of anyone who steals his local thunder. In short, I don’t believe he ever intended to run and that he did this entire dance with malice aforethought toward harming Daly and Mirkarimi.

The second worse thing he did was to totally negate the new mayoral matching-funds plan designed by Steven Hill and Rob Arnow. He cost people several million dollars in income that could have been streaming in since last Christmas. Hats off to Nicole Derse who was the only inner-circle Mattite who saw through his dung and took a job with Barrack Obama. She’s the only one I know drawing a paycheck from a ‘Progressive’ politician at this point. Make no mistake about it, this cowardly fold by the selfish Texan will cost a bunch of potential campaign workers their San Francisco residency.

And, the last worst thing Matt did was his assault on IRV (‘Ranked Choice’) voting. By insisting for 8 months that only a single strong candidate could challenge Newsom, he essentially destroyed years of work by Professor Steven Hill (see: ‘How to Fix Elections’).

Ten bucks is the minimum entry so I won’t be there but people have been known to have a great time when I didn’t grace a show. This is an art auction for a worthy cause at a sleek gallery/bar where the best exhibits are always walking around on 2 legs. Support it if you can. I understand that one of the sculptures for sale is, in fact, a sculpture of ‘Dead Elvis on the toilet’ done in eerie likeness to the senior partner at Gonzalez-Leigh (he’s reading a Ken Garcia column).

Chuck Gonzalez at Laszlo’s(9pm to closing on Mission next door to Medjools)
Return of DJ SUPERCHILL!

I will be at this one. Chuck is reprising his recent run at the little lounge just south of 21st. He’ll be there the final Tuesday of every month until further notice. Chuck’s music touches emotional chords from the sublime to the below prime. His draw covers the spectrum of SF’s Avant Garde many of whom believe in free sex. I highly recommend you be there.

Today’s BoardItem #10

This is the MTA Charter amendment into which Aaron Peskin inserted a clean-air proposal designed to hold the population of SF’s auto population at its present level. Arrayed against the clause are Mayor Gavin Newsom and Green Party analyst, Marc Salomon. I know, I know; it seems strange to see the two of them strolling hand in hand from one Shorenstein/Fisher/Hellman parking garage to the the next but hey, love is strange.

Did you know?

That the 750k the Mayor wants to extract from the voters this Fall is for Jordanna Thigpen? Yep, honest. Forming a free-standing Small Business Advisory structure where none is needed is a tribute to the Taxi Commission VP’s large breasts and lack of ethics.

Did you know that there are 3 posters to Chris Daly’s blog whose home terminals trace directly to Wells Fargo? Did you know that Jordanna Thigpen posts as both ‘Uncle Miltie’ and YOGO through a computer ‘cloud’ called ‘TOR’ and that she does this because she was busted as her own homophobic and racist self as ‘SFSweetie’? Our hackers are better than your hackers girl and it took a simple algorithm to track you.

Jordanna, as someone who considers himself to be one of your closest friends, I should tell you that pumping a Luke confidante at the Plan C party, then posting family things is not a good idea. If you’re gonna do that, you’re gonna get caught. Why don’t you just pull off your cheap wig and let those Medusa snakes underneath thrill the staff and audience at the Small Business and Taxi commissions? Bottom line is that you ain’t gonna get that job and Michael Ege and David Latterman can only pull your sleigh off a cliff.

That will get you all through til the Board kicks off in 4 hours.

Dead Elvis still on D.A. toilet?
