Yep, they’ve been hammering him and have been from the beginning and especially during and after the illegal imms protests. No one takes the guy seriously now. He is just a air puff to place on the seat for someone to sit on in a pinch these days. Via la grossa is the new LA fake fart but better because it is all real. All truth—LOL.

being a democrat means rules don’t apply

“What ethics? We don’t need no stinking ethics! We’re America’s democrats.”

"I'll believe it when I see it, Antonio."

"Eet's true, Mirthala. Uno dosado Viagra and zoom.....
a burrito thees beeg. And wait til chu taste da salsa. Aiyiyi."

[mimaw]

I’m sure his numbers will go up in the polls dems approve of this behavior.

[Liz]

Hillary will quietly drop Antonio as a national co-chair of her presidential campaign......... but Bill will come to his rescue.

"Psst! Antonio. Could you give me Mirthala's phone number?"

"Her cha chas belongs to me, Beeley. But if'n you tell Heelary to put
me on da ticket, I supply you wit hot Latina babes up the kazoo."

I don’t see a thread for this live presser for David Beckham’s announcement into the LA Galaxy. Are you guys watching? Tony Villar interjected himself into the mix and the crowd has been booing him! It’s so funny. BOOOOOOOOOO!! BOO! GET OFF THE STAGE! BOO!

LOL

Thanks for the heads-up, have to watch for some video of that.

Too bad his family isn’t there to stand up for him..

Oh wait, that’s right.

bwa ha

The biggest boos come during his introduction by Alexi Lalas.

[Cyber Liberty]

I guess you’d have to look at the “totality” of his Mayoralty.

[BurbankKarl]

Yes, I was watching live...I cracked up. So much for the LA Times saying the Mayor thing will all blow over. He needed to be there because the Galaxy are playing a home game at the LA Coliseum in two weeks.
