CM PRESS # 474

WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO MEETS DAVID HAYE ON JUNE 2, IN HAMBURG
Link

Klitschko needs to take away Haye's bicycle and knock him out or he risks losing on points as Haye makes cute for the judges.

The way to knock out Haye is with hooks to the side of his neck below the ear.  Forget about dropping him with a right cross to the chin. 

Wladimir is the younger of the brothers Klitschko, but at 35 he's starting to slow down.

BLACK  ATTACKS DISABLED WHITE MAN ON BUS

Are you getting fed up with these racist attacks on Whites, that the press never seems to call racist attacks? 

Are you getting fed up with the double standard?  If so, start speaking out.

And guess what? In this very rare case, the suspect's race has been given in the news article. 

Can you guess why?  That's right, it's because he appears to be White.

If he were non-White, you wouldn't see a racial/ethnic description. 

And, if he's caught and if it turns out that he is actually non-White, that fact will disappear from most news reports.

CITY SAYS EMPLOYEE ASSOCIATION CAN AUDIT CITY BOOKS
COSTA MESA, CALIF.—City Chief Executive Officer Tom Hatch said this week that the City of Costa

Mesa will give its full cooperation to the Costa Mesa City Employees Assn.’s proposed independent audit of City finances.

Association officials said at a City Council meeting earlier this month that they wanted to pay for an outside review.

“Between the professionals in the city’s finance department and our annual independent audit, I’m confident that our representation of the City’s financial condition is accurate,” Hatch said. “Still, if individuals or groups want to check for themselves, they are always welcome. All of the information is public information.”

The City Council will also hold a special Budget Briefing study session in the Council Chambers on April 26 to provide information, clarity and increased transparency on several fiscal issues.

The session, which will begin at 4:30 p.m., will provide a detailed overview of the state of the city’s fund balance or reserves; presentations by two CalPERS experts who will explain Costa Mesa’s $130 million unfunded liability, its current PERS costs and future rate projections; and a general status of the budget development process.

In a break from tradition at council study sessions, the public will be able to ask questions to city staff and their experts at the end of each presentation. The study session will be broadcast live on CMTV and on the web.

The CM PRESS wrote before that we think the City should let the employee association audit the City's books at the sole cost and expense of the employee association as the association proposed.

However,  we think the City and the employee association should jointly agree on an auditing firm rather than having the employee association exclusively pick the auditing firm as they suggested.

We also think the out front agreement should be to release the full audit and not have the employee association be able to hide all or part of it if they don't like the results.

NEW POLL SHOWS WIDESPREAD SUPPORT FOR COUNCIL MAJORITY'S EFFORTS TO FIX COSTA MESA'S FINANCIAL MESS
[Below is the press release about the poll]

The Costa Mesa Taxpayers Association has released the results of its telephonic poll on the current budget situation in the City of Costa Mesa.

The Association retained Polling Strategies (pollingstrategies.com), a local, non-partisan survey firm, to perform the poll, which ran from April 11th - April 14th.

The poll was taken to provide better focus to the Association on efforts related to local fiscal issues. Key areas of the poll:
• Survey of 854 registered voter households in Costa Mesa.
• Funded exclusively by Costa Mesa Taxpayers Association.
• No elected official had any involvement in the poll.
• Margin of Error less than 4%.
• Questions derived directly from budget figures and estimates provided by the City.

The poll results contrast widely with “push” polling conducted by Tulchin Research for the Orange County Employees Association and reported via press release in the Daily Pilot on April 1st.

The Tulchin poll also contained responses from only 400 households. To date, the employees union has failed to provide additional information related to that poll and therefore there are numerous questions as to the accuracy of those polling figures since it cannot analyze or compare results.

The results of this poll clearly demonstrate that Costa Mesa voters are concerned about the City’s finances and the manner in which this City is spending money.

For example, 83% of voters find it unacceptable that the City currently spends approximately 80% of its budget on salary and benefits.

The poll also reflects that 68% of voters believe the City should consider outsourcing some services to the private sector to solve the budget crisis.

The Costa Mesa Taxpayers Association requests that the City Council listen to the concerns of the voters and make immediate and meaningful reforms to ensure long-term fiscal solvency for our great City.

The Costa Mesa Taxpayers Association is a non-partisan taxpayer advocacy group in the City of Costa Mesa. We are comprised of business people, city leaders, and people of all backgrounds who simply want their voice heard on taxpayer issues of importance.

THE SAD STORY OF A COUPLE OF GOP GREAT WHITE FATHERS

Frail looking grandmother Marilyn Davenport, who is a member of the Republican Central Committee of Orange County, apparently saw this Internet picture of President Obama as a chimpanzee baby along with a mother and father chimp. 

Now, our guess is that Ms. Davenport is probably as conditioned as many White people are to not even think in terms of race, so our further guess--and we piece this together from snippets of things we've read and our general knowledge of such things--is that she thought the picture was funny.

And, since chimps don't have birth certificates, the photo could spoof the reason why Obama has never been able to supply a birth certificate.

So, without giving it much thought, Davenport sent the picture out to some others in the GOP with the message about this being the reason for the missing birth certificate.

Someone then sent the photo and  Davenport's message to former California GOP Chairman Mike Schroeder, who was outraged, outraged  I say, as only a Great White Father, appointed by Gawd to protect the less fortunate peoples of the planet (read all non-Whites) from the depredations of his fellow (superior) White People, could be. 

Schroeder, as is typical with Great White Fathers, didn't want his phony outrage to go unseen and be unrewarded. This type has a psychological hunger to be seen by others as being noble,wonderful and righteous.  So, Schroeder ran to the press to get his due praise.

Picture Schroeder standing there like a comic book super hero in a fighting pose,with his chin held high, his sleeves rolled up and clutching the photo and email in his fisted hand in a heroic WWI get the Huns pose, and then picture him suddenly morphing into Dudley Do-Right and breaking out into an operatic "I'VE COME TO SAVE YOU FROM THAT EVIL WHITE GRANDMOTHER! I AM YOUR PROTECTOR AND SAVIOR!"

Yes, dear friends, this is what I call Noblesse Oblige Racism.  And, those who have this affliction, I call Great White Fathers and Great White Mothers.

Since I coined these terms, I'll give you some definitions.  Noblesse Oblige Racism is a subconscious but false belief held by some Whites that because they are White they are superior to non-Whites and that as superior beings they must be overly kind and polite to non-Whites and that these (superior) Whites must protect non-Whites from other evil Whites who are filled with hatred for darker peoples because, ah, because they're darker (yes, that's it). 

The Great White Fathers and Great White Mothers also believe (again, subconsciously) that they must overlook things done by non-Whites that they would condemn when done by (superior) Whites. This is because they sub-consciously believe that non-Whites are like little children who need the help of the (superior) Whites.

A further belief of this type is that all humans are really White people inside and that if these inner White people don't act like White people, they simply need to be fathered and mothered by the Great White Fathers and Mothers to let that inner White person shine through.

At any rate, the pseudo-heroic outrage of Schroeder was soon picked up by another Great White Father, Orange County GOP Chairman Scott Baugh, who called for Davenport to resign and who has also been running to the press to show his noble outrage.

According to the OC REGISTERBaugh  told the Central Committee and news cameras that "The email without question is racist,”  And, he went on, “Free speech is not just a right. It is a responsibility. You are not just speaking for yourself – you are speaking for those who elected you."

And he went on even further with his stupidity, “We are the party of Lincoln. There is no place in this party for racism. Second, we are the party of personal responsibility.”

Oh geez, here we go again with that party of Lincoln crap.  What a cliche.  Here's what Lincoln really had to say about such things:

"I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races - that I am not nor ever have been in favor of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the two races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I as much as any other man am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race. I say upon this occasion I do not perceive that because the white man is to have the superior position the negro should be denied everything."
--Abraham Lincoln

Well,  maybe Baugh didn't mean that the GOP is the party of Abraham Lincoln. Maybe he meant it's the party of some other Lincoln.  Maybe he meant Lincoln automobiles.

Now, to help put this in perspective, do you ever remember Schroeder or Baugh  running to the press and showing such outrage when all the photos of George Bush as a monkey were making the rounds?

Where was their outrage?  There was none. Do you know why?  It's because Great White Fathers don't feel a need to protect their fellow (superior) Whites. 

You see, (superior) Whites are supposed to be able to take care of themselves.  If they are mocked or made fun of, as Whites, it's okay because they're White and as (superior beings) they are comfortable in their skins and such insults shouldn't bother them. To (superior) Whites, racial insults thrown their way are as meaningless as an insult from a little kid calling them "poop heads."

And in this last regard, we remember a few years back when there was an earlier more general brouhaha about chimps and Blacks. 

At that time, the Great White Mothers and Great White Fathers rushed in and pointed out to everyone who would listen that, in their opinon, Whites actually look more like chimps than Blacks. 

We can even remember a picture of a  Great White Mother pulling out her lower lip with her forefinger and thumb and saying "See, my lips are thin and they look more like a chimp's lips."

The latest on this story about Ms. Davenport  is that thanks to Schroeder and Baugh, Al Sharpton and other race hustlers now plan on staging a protest in front of the Grandmother's house.

Maybe Schroeder and Baugh will join with Sharpton and the other Democrats and lefties in picketing Republican Davenport.

Now, some may be saying, hey Millard, you got it wrong.  Schroeder and Baugh aren't as you've pictured them. They don't think Whites are superior.

To this, we can only reply of course they don't consciously think it. Noblesse Oblige Racism is subconscious.  That means that one is not conscious of one's motivations.

COSTA MESA RELEASES 4TH QUARTER SALES TAX FIGURES
Link

Looks like we're in an upward trend and a couple of million bucks ahead of where we were in the same period last year. 

Although these figures will be seized upon by those who don't want Costa Mesa city government to be right sized, there is nothing in these sales figures that would justify keeping a bloated city government or in charging citizens too much for many services. 

In fact, even if these figures were a billion dollars ahead of last year's, there would be no justification for paying more than we have to for services and for not now using funds to repair streets, remove slums and do all the other things that Costa Mesa has been neglecting for years in order to pay wages.

Municipal government exists to serve the citizens of the municipality, not to be an ATM machine for employees.

  1. I spoke to several residents in the city and they are under the impression the mayor and city council get many expensive perks. They feel these perks would somehow off set a layoff scenario. A $10,000 gas allowance was mentioned. Could you outline what perks they do receive with dollar figures?
