Bulldog 2007 Article 123

(8-16-07)

Chicken Gavin declines debate(Shades of ‘Question Time’?)

“Newsom, in fact, said he has every
intention of debating his challengers
- whether it’s the chicken, Wolf or
- anyone else.�

(Cecilia Vega)

“I look forward to engaging anyone
at anytime.�

(Mayor Newsom last Friday)

Well, was the Mayor lying or was Vega? Or, perhaps, both of them. Because, we had a challenge in front of Eric Jaye, Gavin’s chief political strategist that evening. The next morning. The day after that. You get the idea.

Then, I called Gavin’s Senior Advisor, Mike Farrah 4 times with the request just to make certain the challenge went through someone I thought we could trust. Wrong again.

Instead, I get a third-hand rumor from an Examiner reporter saying that Eric Jaye told her that not only would the Mayor not attend, but hinting at having us arrested if we didn’t have a permit for amplified sound. That’s because I was stupid enough to ask them if they’d provide the amplified sound.

What’s with these assholes? Do they plan on watching off the imperial balcony while their jack-booted SFPD beats the shit out of the opposition candidates? What kind of fucking banana republic are they running here?

Anyway, I’ll keep you posted. Josh Wolf has been coordinating with the candidates cause I can be kind of abrasive (you noticed?). I’ll give you another blast tomorrow morning on status. These dip shits couldn’t have given us a better response. First they lie. Then, they threaten those weaker than them. Speaking of weaker.

Donald Fisher is a monster

Lest anyone forget. After a solid week of front page stories about what a great guy Newsom puppeteer, Donald Fisher is, I thought someone should set the record straight.

Fisher got rich using children as slave labor

He made billions literally chaining young girls to sewing machines in Asia and working them 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. Google Donald Fisher and the Gap and slave labor and read for yourself. He paid millions in fines in over a dozen 3rd world countries but it didn’t matter because he made billions and he has no conscience. He uses slave labor just as the Nazis did.

He and his sons are destroying the redwoods

Again, he could give a shit less because they are making big money. One of his tricks is to log the ancient trees when he knows Forest Service guards are off work. He has clear-cutting rights for over 25% of Mendocino County. When he joined the Bohemian Grove, he immediately made plans to log the ‘Grove’ and he’s strong-arming members who object.

He is destroying the air in San Francisco

Parking garages are big money and Fisher and his family can never have enough money. No matter if it costs you and your family their health. When the Mayor and the Board and the Planning Department and Commission approved a Downtown parking plan (C3 legislation) to restrict new garages and the resultant thousands of more cars, Fisher was able to force the Mayor to back down and overrule all of them. He’s doing it again with his ‘Neighborhood Parking’ (mostly more downtown garages) initiative on the November ballot. Just to make certain you realize it’s his idea, the legislation specifically says that any tree that gets in the way of any of his garages can be cut down. Also, bus stops that stand in the way of his profits must be moved. Also, bicycle lanes mean nothing. Newsom has rolled over on every single request from Fisher.

And, he’s busting teachers’ unions

He and Eli Broad and Warren Hellman have joined in a national effort to destroy community controlled schools and run them for profit. Locally, his KIPP schools are imbedded like a cancer in the SFUSD.

His kids got SF soccer fields as a gift

He and the Mayor and Aaron Peskin drove through legislation giving Fisher’s sons control of every public soccer field in San Francisco a few at a time. Presently, they control a half dozen or so of them. Their plan is to charge $150 an hour for the public to use the public’s fields.

Now, he wants the Presidio?

Hey, I’m anything but naïve and I know the butt already controls what happens there through the rubber-stamp honcho, Craig Middleton. But, as the Chronicle has been telling you for a week, Donald wants to build a huge building there full of his shitty art collection and control it through his family even after he’s burning in a richly-deserved Hell.

Why did the Chronicle tell you none of this?

Because Fisher’s Gap and Banana Republic and Old Navy empire spend millions yearly in advertising with the Chronicle. Losing money the way they are, they could hardly refuse.

Writing about these guys is creepy.

I need a shower.

Salon tomorrow 1-3pm.

Mayoral candidates out the ying yang.
