I can't even imagine what Bill O'Reilly will do with this!

"Then they could have their own army. I bet it would look a lot like the Belgian army"
That as a hard burn on the Belgian army.
I don't mind them saying this at all. The beauty of free speech is that it gives one enough rope to hang oneself. :)
Long live free speech!
"but she may not know them."
She doesn't appear to know Gerardo, either. She happened to catch him on TV, it sounds like.
Angela Alioto, meet Cynthia Gair!
Nicholas Cage should have just let Brig. Gen. Hummel nerve gas the lot of them...
They already have...and they drive cars too.
When the earthquake tumbles the city, we must insist the rubble be abondened.
"So, what the hell is your name, Alito, Alioto, Obama, Osama...hic! Let's go driving, Miss Alito-Alioto-Osama, er, er...ah, just pass me another drink."
I'd be willing to bet the next terrorist attack will be in or near SF, they always hit the soft targets.
I'll tell you why San Franciscans hate the military: because California lands a lot of big defense contracts.
They hate the military, but they'll gladly cash the paychecks to build the bombers and weapons systems.

Cynthia Gair
Director, Portfolio and Field Advancement
Cynthia Gair oversees the comprehensive business support provided to the REDF portfolio of social enterprises. This includes business assistance from REDF staff as well as from consultants in specialty areas. In addition to her work at REDF, she has provided training in business management to hundreds of urban entrepreneurs, and has served on the Board and Loan Committee of the Northern California Community Loan Fund.
Prior to joining REDF, Cynthia managed businesses in book distribution, retail clothing, health products and light manufacturing. Her previous activities include serving as Operating General Partner of Terranomics Ventures, a San Francisco venture capital firm. She holds a BS in Finance and an MBA from George Washington University. She studies Italian, Zen Buddhism, and music in her spare time.
REDF provides guidance, leadership and investment to a portfolio of nonprofit social enterprises, changing the lives of people who face poverty, homelessness, mental illness and other barriers to employment.
REDF funds programs through long-term commitments to help move people out of poverty. Our approach, called “high-engagement philanthropy,” places emphasis on making an organization more sustainable over time, using best business practices and building its capacity to help others.
For every dollar donated in the San Francisco Bay Area last year, three cents went to homelessness. Of that, less than one cent was spent on sustainable, lasting solutions. While REDF is a nonprofit organization, we view all of our grants as investments. Therefore, we refer to the tax-exempt organizations receiving our support as "investees" instead of the more traditional "grantees." The "return" REDF receives for this investment is not financial, but rather investing vital philanthropic resources in helping to build the capacity of the nonprofit sector. While this may seem like simple semantics to some, we feel it is important to affirm the fact that we are not simply making charitable gifts, but rather investing precious philanthropic resources in helping to build the capacity of the nonprofit sector.

Actually, I was thinking an even up trade - China gets California and their cheap labor force from the south and we get Hong Kong! Fair trade, I would say!!
CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER, Angela Alioto
Alioto, an attorney who has won some multimillion-dollar civil rights judgments, poured nearly a million dollars of her own money into this, her third unsuccessful bid to become mayor. She said her endorsement of Newsom was mostly based on pushing her policy issues, not just her personal ambition, although she admits that was some of it.
"Am I ambitious? Of course I am," Alioto said. "I just ran for mayor and spent a lot of money doing it."
Allow sharia in NY, Seattle, SF, & other liberal hot spots for 4 years. Then we will move in and take it back. Problem solved.
