Sen. Feinstein Rips Up Public Garden

It must be tough keeping track of all the workmen doing your chores when you have as many multi-million dollar mansions as Senator Dianne Feinstein and her fabulously wealthy husband Richard Blum. The latest addition to the property collection is a 16 million dollar house in San Francisco, located adjacent to a public right-of-way along steps run up a hill.

The workmen doing the gardening and renovation on the njew digs ripped up an entire formal garden located on public land.

If it sounds like her crew went too far in digging up a public space, we should point out there is some ambiguity—because the landscaping around the Lyon Street steps is supposed to be maintained by the neighbors, in this case Feinstein and her husband.

And the couple were actually working up plans to give the area a total makeover—including putting up a gate and fence around the Lyon Street entrance.

“Some security is obviously important, and yet we want to do it in a way that it doesn’t take away” from the public space, Feinstein said.

“We will pay the city to do the work,” she said. “I regret (the garden) was taken out before we were ready to go in with the new stuff.

"...doing stuff that the wife watches on O network and Hallmark."

Sure...

I regret (the garden) was taken out before we were ready to go in with the new stuff.

Translated: "I regret I got caught ripping up public land for my own selfish, elitist lifestyle."

I would like the name of "one" senator who is not an arrogant snot! You will note their God like attitude. Get out of my sight God!

You want to know why the congress has their tits in a ringer over this Jefferson bribery deal? Every arrogant one of them are guilty and probably all have disastrous files in their office.

What does McCain and Kennedy see out of wholesale immigration? Free votes fome stupid people. What is the figure? 80% crossing do not have a high school diploma.

Wow this is really high tech stuff coming in from Mexico.
