Magnificence in a canary Polo shirt.

 

Great. Now that's going to be stuck in my head all night. Da da da da da. (What was on the tape?)

 

I think his name is Walter, and he's a frequent and much-loved public commenter at Board meetings.

 

THIS IS F*CKING HILARIOUS.

 

CUIP-SF is a shady project to which Jim Sutton has a relationship. Their main goal is to bash progressives and bolster neoliberal Democrats like Newsom.

Sutton is one of Jew's lawyers.

No one cares, marc. Go back to your nice condo and your pathetic jobless existence and your worthless bigot friends like h and Luke. This video is funny as hell and totally sums up SF politics. You of all people should enjoy this since this is the level of discourse you work on (chicken suits). Oh and the big words. We cannot forget your impressive big words.

What the hell does George see in you?

 

Walter is a staple of the BOS public comment crazies. His signing has gotten so much better over the years.

 

How about the clip of the woman telling all of the Supervisors that they'll go to hell? A different tone, certainly.

 

What a muppet

 

No wonder the rest of the country is laughing at us.

Oh, I was talking about the exchange between #5 and #6. The video was great!

 

I think the tape was playing the Madonna song.

 

Is Marc Salomon a disgusting capitalist condo owner?

 

Ahh shucks, they cut it off before he uses the overhead projector that's supposed to be used for displaying important documents to show off his "volleyball medal from the gay olympics".

 

Yes, Salmon is a condo owner. Worth a bit too. All his claptrap is about protecting his house value. The ultimate hypocrite and liar.

Kinda like Ed!

 

The all time best regular commenter at city hall meetings has to be Sylvia Johnson. Is that who you mean guest 8?

She usually wears a green military jacket, a maroon hat and has on glasses.

She usually mumbles a lot, so the translation subtitles on SFgovTV go something like this:
"water rates yes it helps the world -unintelligible-not only those worlds -unintelligible..."

 

One of the best things about this serenade is not visible on the video: its the fact that, the way the Supes are seated, Jew is literally only a few feet in front of this guy - closer than any other Supervisor. Awkward!!

Also, right on #8 - Ms. Jackson (I believe is her name - Evalyne?) also gave a speech on Tuesday whose final sentence was the assertion that ALL the Supervisors are going to go to hell.

(Sigh!) Its so hard to pick a favorite these days.

 

I can imagine how long term stable relationships must present a critical threat to Team Newsom.

Cowardly guest [6] is pathetic for bringing my husband into this--he's not a public figure now and does not wish to be.

Shame on sfist for tolerating these violations of the Geneva Convention.

Attack me all you want, I'm a public figure, but if you're unable to score on me, don't sink to the level attacking noncombatant family members.

As Sylvia Johnson said:

"I'm sorry all those people had to die.

I tried everything I could.

But its all a wild goose chase."

 

Marc's right, the Noose's salaried attack dogs are yapping around town and proving that their stiff-haired puppet never really cared about gay marriage other than to exploit it as an accidental opportunity for political rehabilitation after losing among all non-Republican voters in the 03 election. (Sorry for the big wurds, #6.)
--SocialJustice

 

Oh this is rich. The fella who outs people on every chatboard if they disagree with him.

The gentleman who has publicly supported terrorism and attacking non-combatants.

The chap who writes every newspaper and blog in town to create crazy conspiracies involving all kinds of people who don't want to be involved.

Crying to mommy about non-combatants.

You can't make this stuff up.

Game on.

 

Treating Mr. Salomon's partner like Alex and Ruby Tourk, whose salaries we pay and who choose their Noose for the lucrative gravy train, is unacceptable sadism masquerading as collateral damage. The activities of counselor Sutton that Mr. Salomon highlights, for example, are not "crazy conspiracies," rather they are well documented transgressions against the public supported by ample documentary evidence in the public domain. I won't support whining or incivility but in this case the abusive voice is clearly not Mr. Salomon's. #5, enjoy your Noosey paycheck and chill. This SFist item was about Ed Jew and the public comment singer, not your venal Noose support.

Meant #6, not #5, of course. #5's pay from Noose comes when hell freezes over, and with global warming that's an even more remote possibility...
-SocialJustice

 

This is just amazing. I can't stop watching and singing along.

"And you gotta look for things good and fine,
You just keep pushing Supervisor's Ed Jew's good service over the borderline"

"Keep pushing-adah-ah-dah-dah-dah-dah-dah"

 

FUCKING PSYCHOPATH
