Anaheim, CA – Consumer advocate and former federal prosecutor Ashleigh Aitken, who is the Democratic Party endorsed candidate for Anaheim Mayor, released the following statement regarding the city’s payment of a $96 million fine to resolve the sale of Angel Stadium:

 “A $96 million fine by the State isn’t a win for Anaheim taxpayers.  It’s the result of a corrupt deal centered around a no-bid contract, which was fraught with valuation issues and negotiated in secret by Mayor Harry Sidhu. At the end of the day, the City of Anaheim is losing its most valuable asset and the taxpayers of our city are getting a bad deal.”

  1. While NOT a fan of Vern Nelson, his blog or percieved political superiority, this week’s installment of Suck My C%ck, I’m drunk mailers comes close to crossing a line.

    Aeme with a photo of a short guy with a small penis. Wearing his signature porkie pie hat and too big white dinner jacket in a dirty bathroom (looks like a Beach Blvd. Motel!!) Playing with himself and ejaculating over pictures of THREE PROMINENT OC WOMEN. There is a lube comtainer and empty bottles of Popov Vodka littering the filthy restroom.

    The caption of course is the OJB tweet verbatim.

    If I were any of these Women’s husband. I would punch Vern and Donna out. As for the women, two of whom Vern is agreesively supporting I would clip his nuts.
