CM PRESS # 734


Remember Wendy telling us that we have the best employees [in the state or country or world or universe, or whatever] and that our employees are part of our family?

Well, now she's back with more of this childish twaddle in her above linked blog column about the 19th Street bridge and the charter.

Wendy writes, "[W]e Costa Mesans are up for it!" [Getting the bridge off of MPAH.] Yeah, damn right, that's because we're special.  Somehow, living in Costa Mesa has made us this way. We ain't like them Newporters or Huntington Beachers or them there Fountain Valleyers. No, by golly, we're Costa Mesans! Be true to your school city!

Then, Wendy writes: "Costa Mesa is a very unique city."  It is?  Why and how is it unique?  Wendy doesn't tell us that.  Sometimes you just have to have belief.

She goes on about the charter, "We should not be copying and pasting from other cities! Makes us look dumb! We aren't!"
No, Wendy, you writing that makes you look dumb.  No laws or constitutions or legal documents are made of whole cloth.  They all build on what's already been done successfully.  It is supremely dumb to not cut and paste and instead try to reinvent the wheel. 

BTW all those exclamation points are Wendy's! (except this one, which is mine)

Goslow Wendy brags that she lives on the Westside.  Yes, it's true, at least geographically,but she lives in a gated insular community that, as we've said before, might as well be in Beverly Hills. 

And, what has Wendy done to improve the Westside while she's been in office?  Nothing.  In fact, her constant schmoozing with the charities just helps keep the area downscale.

The Westside Plans were finished more than five years ago.  Where have they been?  Gathering dust.  Why hasn't Wendy been doing something with them?  The heavy thinking has already been done.  They just need to be implemented, and this takes will on the part of the City Council.

In fact, the only reason that the Westside Plans are now finally being dusted off and the only reason that the sign for "19 West" is finally going to go up on W. 19th Street is because the CM PRESS reminded the good Councilmembers about the plans and the sign, and they are  now taking action.  And, I don't even live on the Westside. Bever lives on the Westside but way up in the north part so he probably doesn't notice the absence of the sign. Wendy, however, probably drives by 19th and Harbor (where the sign will go) a couple of times a day.  What's Wendy been doing?  Oh right, she's been busy going slow and trying to curry favor with local lefties.

If you start seeing some improvements on the Westside you can mainly thank Jim Righeimer, Steve Mensinger, Eric Bever and Gary Monahan.  Give no thanks to Wendy.  She's done nothing.  She's just too slow.  In fact, she even indicates how slow she is in her above column.  She's a slow thinker. A slow reader. A slow talker. A slow doer. Goslow Wendy is our new name for her (until we think of a better one).
