Snouts in the Trough

It was the first council meeting since the Los Angeles Times reported July 15 that Chief Administrative Officer Robert Rizzo earns $787,637 -- with annual 12 percent raises -- and that Bell pays its police chief $457,000, more than Los Angeles Police Chief Charlie Beck makes in a city of 3.8 million people. Bell council members earn almost $100,000 for part-time work. [More]
And naturally, Mayor Hernandez knew nothing about that meth lab on his property.

Nice work if you can get it. But then, you can't.

I don't suppose it would do any good to call the Bell tip line and report criminal activity? Other than to give them a good laugh?

I saw the video of the SEA of angry people surrounding city hall. That's what's needed.
There seem to be SO MANY people out there without a conscience. They naturally drift toward positions of authority. Meanwhile, the TV people tell us what Lindsay Lohan will have for breakfast, lunch and dinner in her low-security correctional facility.

What they do in Mexico, they bring here to do. But do let's wait and talk some more about all this stuff. DOING anything about it would be just.........wrong.
