Mayor Villaraigosa: "Washington's failure is criminal"

[wittynameguy]

this man is a embarrasment to the city, spends all his time posing for pics, and photo ops, to manipulate media. Has his daughter on payroll making 68k, "field rep" , changed his name from Tony Villar to sound more hispanic for votes, cheated on wife i dont care about, but dont be campaigning about being a family guy, or using her last name just to get votes.

"In the new century, Los Angeles has begun to fade... The unemployment rate is one of the highest among the nation’s largest urban areas. Streets are potholed. Businesses and residents are fleeing. In virtually every category of urban success, from migration of educated workers to growth of airport travel, Los Angeles lags behind not only such fast-growth regions as Dallas, Houston, and Raleigh-Durham, but also historical rivals like New York." --Joel Kotkin, CityJournal

[lerob312]

Typical blame someone else lowlife. This guy is an embarrassment. I hate to admit that I am from L.A. and that this is the moron that we elected. The guy has a hard time spitting out a sentance without about ten uhhhhhhhh, ummmmmm, uhhhhhhh, uhhhhhh, ummmmmm, duuuuuuhhh. The one thing he is good at is spending our money on encouraging and supporting illegal immigration.

[ThisEducation]

Open borders and mass third world immigration has been so good for America!!! Look at the wonders its done for Los Angelos and California! Ya, California once was number 1 in education and now it has the worst schools in the nation and the highest unemployment.

[mizzoulibertarian]

ALL WHITE PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA COME TO THE NORTHWEST MIDWEST AND SOUTH. LEAVE SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO THE BEANERS. IT WILL COLLPASE AND THEY WILL STARVE.

[RandomShellAccount]

Los Angeles fell apart since I was a kid growing up here. Most of us who were born in the 70s and saw it's decline know EXACTLY why. We've witnessed it first hand, sat by while our MAYORS announce "Sanctuary", we share the tax burden, our public schools have gone to shit, many hospitals closed. California has gone from broke to FUCKING BROKE.

And shit stains like Villaraigosa will walk away with a great pension and smile about the whole thing.

How's political correctness working for us now?

[wyattnoahliko]

ah...ah..ah...ah...ah...ah...a­h...Dumb shit mayor in a city full of dumb shit voters.

[Cygnus325]

@Mapanatl I see far more of you cockroaches committing crime than anyone else. Go back to your cesspool in Mexico.

[pminner]

I agree with Cygnus325. Villaraigosa is only looking out for the mexicans

[ck187um]

This wetback work for the maxican mafia

[hunab3425]

@ck187um and u inbred redneck or what ever u are work for geezers auto doing oil changes. GIT ER DUUNN

[chuckdapug]

This guys is F*cking L.A. first and soon want to screw up the state. He is a Moron look into his retarded past Villaraigosa is not his real last name he changed it to gain the hispanic vote. He is full of shit....Just listen to him sounds like a jackoff...

[thechicagokid1]

Hey Mayor !I stuck up for hispanics before!Thats how they allowed spanish on the buses in Chicago!But the amount of Mexican imigrants that are allowed to come here is unfair to every other ethnic group!I use to feel sorry for mexicans!Then I always thought of them as good hard working people!But millions of you have come here and disrespect being American and even wanna change the language!And thats gota stop!I deserve the American Dream more than any of you!GregoryA.Marzec~TheChicago­Kid !

[hunab3425]

@thechicagokid1 hey hillbilly bobby joe redneck that just moved to the big city and is confronted by latinos. get your mullet hairstyle having head out of your sister cornelia s pussy you inbred piece of shit.

[Mapanatl]

@thechicagokid1 Hey Asshole. Those people came here because NAFTA in the fucked up deal it was Killed al business in that country so that the stupid HILLBILLY REDNECK Farmer could once again ride the Monster Trucks and throw money around left and right in the "Good times again" when they were allowed to FLOOD all of Latin America with Gov subsidized products.  Millions became unemployed bc the US NAFTA BS.

Did anyone in US CARE? Heck NO! in fact Clinton triggered devaluation of Mex Coin 50%

[thechicagokid1]

I wrote a letter to the mayor explaining that harrasment by his officers allready cost me over one million dollars!Instead of him crrecting the situation!He sends a cop to threaten to blow up my luggage bag and and handcuff me & threaten to arrest me!I have no criminal record!But instead of me being allowed to work as Spiderman!He allows another guy who has an arrest record work Hollywood Blvd. all summer long!I had a pig tell me to get a real job the other day!My jobs harder than his!FU2

[Mapanatl]

@thechicagokid1 AAAh NOW we see Why you engaging in your Racist RANT you Sniveling, IGNORANT, ILLITERATE, little Bitch.

[thechicagokid1]

This mayor does'nt belong in office!He runs an organized crime ring!From his corrupt police force to his business owners who have been involved in murder,prostitution,conspiracy and racketeering!I originally like this guy!But this loser has more respect for imigrants rights than mine as an American Born Citizen!He/s guilty of treason against me as an American!I was kicked off Hollywood Blvd& told I could'nt work as Spiderman!I have no criminal record!Instead they let a guy wit a record work!

[Mapanatl]

@thechicagokid1 Treason against YOU?? Nobody owes allegiance to YOUR FILTHY ASS.

you are just an ILLITERATE, IGNORANT and uneducated, asshole. That's why you want to make a living as spiderman. Only Losers do that. (got nothing else)

and you got that typical sense of Entitlement bc you're "American Born"

Well So am I and you don't see me acting like I have some stupid sense of entitlement and the Gov has to support me and feed me bc "I'm American Born"

Stupid INBRED dumbass!

[wyecee]

Either a wetger or a nigback.

[Cygnus325]

This greaseball wants to hand the entire southwest United States over to Mexico, yet he's worried about National Security??? Security for who?? Illegal aliens??

[Mapanatl]

@Cygnus325 "Illegal aliens??" Well, That would be good for YOU bc euros are the ONLY illigal, murderous, plundering Thieves, INVADERS from EUROPE.

Get the Fuck out of OUR HOME, NATIVE, LAND!!!

[webberdog1]

this gang banging chimp crooked monkey was the worst mayor in history. bankrupted LA increased gov union workers pensions,wages by 400 million. teamed with dwp to fleece population w/ rate increases & 3x trash fees up to $85/a bill from $18. this dumb mexican liberal demcrook all he does is raise prices of everything & he lives like a king crook. he belongs in prison as the queen of the cell block.

[culombie]

INVASION USA

Illegal Immigration is destroying America

SB 1070 in all USA

[Mapanatl]

@culombie Yeah, and ALL the WHITE Illegal, criminal, Plundering Thieves, Murderous Genocidal INVADERS need to get the Fuck out of here.

This Is OUR LAND!!

[Cygnus325]

@Mapanatl -Without us...you'd be living in the same cesspool as Mexico.

[PrincessKittenz]

I had no idea the mayor of LA is a spic; no wonder its such a trashy, beaner filled city.

[Panchee123]

fuck you you 2 faced bastard. Resign now you hypocrite

[MJD595]

I am declaring LA a sanctuary city to all people who have an eighth grade education and drive a pick up with a rooster sticker on the door. You must bring your fat uneducated boys as well. Do not think about joining the military we will send our children instead. Don't think critically or rationally either, just resort to race and pride when you do something. Remember, because you work hard all is forgiven.....stupid morons!

[toolbar2345]

Los Angeles' failure is you

[dalecampbl5]

Los Angeles needs to get rid of this guy...I hate the fact that people, even my good president obama hates these immigration laws. Common sense you democrats, no illegals in this country because they suck up the wealth that should go towards the citizens.

[Mapanatl]

@dalecampbl5 NO STUPID the WEALTH Went to the Corporations and the ZIONIST BANKERS in the Biggest HEIST in Humanity's History. or After the economic collapse, WHERE do you think the Money went, TRILLIONS of it??

it didn't go to the "Illegals" they just came here to be exploited for Cheaps, Slave Labor and beckoning of the Corporation during the PLUNDER era AKA "economic boom"

Stop listening to REDNECK-RADIO BRAINWASHING Dumb ASS!!

[aguafinatv]

@dalecampbl5 Youre just a straight racist PIG.

[dalecampbl5]

illegal immigration has NOTHING TO DO WITH RACISM. I'm against all illegals, white, black, mexican, asian, arabs I don't think you understand the definition of racism....but that's understandable, it's an emotional topic and when people get emotional, they aren't so logical anymore.

[dalecampbl5]

but I am more of an Illegal-Immigrationist

[savetheworld573]

I am telling you, fucking mexican idiot is NOT capable of any high ranking position. The highest position they can be is "motherfucker".

[savetheworld573]

He deserves to put a boy-cock in his mouth and ass.

[Mrnavytimes]

Mayor Villaraigosa is total scum; after being married only seven years in 1994 and his wife undergoing treatment for thyroid cancer, he had an affair with a friend of his wife. He later abandoned his wife of twenty years and their two kids to be with Spanish television reporter Mirthala Salinas. As mayor of Los Angeles he declared L.A. a Sanctuary City for illegal immigrants, thereby allowing drug and street gangs to run unimpeded throughout the city.

[savetheworld573]

YOU are the failure, YOU are the fucking criminal, you mother fucker

[savetheworld573]

shut that hole on your fucking face you mother fucker!!

[quafer]

whatever his policies, he's damn hot.;-)

[savetheworld573]

@quafer I think he will look better with a boy-cock in his mouth

[SuperEnoughAlready]

Mayor Villar has turned LA into a criminal cesspool. He's running a sanctuary city where hundreds of new illegal alien gangs are victimizing innocent people and extorting small businesses. All state and federal funds should be cut off completely until he complies with the law and stops aiding and abetting illegal aliens

[slikkwon]

Tony Villar, lol.

[bolitapelona]

As a Mexican living in Los Angeles, I am ashamed of this ass hole. Can anyone please put this dog out of it's missery?

[BrownDarter]

@bolitapelona

lol be proud because as a Cuban living in Miami he is better than all these self serving mostly corrupt Miami Cuban politicians.

Cuban political corruption in Miami is unreal its like a movie . We are the kings/queens of political corruption which is why this city is rated #6 as worse city with Cuban corruption being every yr main reason.

[bolitapelona]

Well I dont know about Cuban coruption, but the fact that Carlos Slim is now the riches man on earth tells more about Mexican corruption than Cuban corruption. In any way, we both suffer from corupt political hacks. We need to get rid of them or send them back home so they can do all the corupt things our politicians are known for back home.

[BrownDarter]

@bolitapelona

fair enough and good point. Its a shame isn't it that Latin America is devoured by such corrupt parasites who suck the blood from their own people. Here in Miami Cuban politicians are the worse thing that could happen to Cubans. Than again many here are fascist ethnic voting separatist and in truth they can go F themselves and I say this as a Cuban American. In Mexicos with oil,etc Mexico if not for the countless corrupt officials could have had at min a good life for all.

[KhmerSerey1]

Blood is thicker then water esse.......

[JoeDaPlumber]

I am ashamed to share my birthplace with this piece of shit.

[TheLuvbasketball22]

Show some class! There human beings too!! What makes you think you need it more than people that really do need it?!

[SnowBunnyBeck666]

all this shitbag wants is more money to pay for food, shelter, housing, medical, and education for all his illegal homies - he's a total cunt.

[honestabe111]

You should talk, you're corrupt. You have failed as Major of LA., you're nothing but TRASH. What have you done as a Major for the people of LA? Shut up, hypocrite!!!

[damoparman]

your citys are failing because of ILLEGAL IMMAGRATION and mexicans in power have allowed it and now you want money but not to fix the problem its just money for you to live on its your city mayor lets start with half your salary

[cogitoergosum321]

This guy is a halfwitted dolt.

[tubebopper09]

he has sold all the parking meters and infrastructure parking to private concerns,just in time to pad his deficit, to appear solvent. now the private concern can go sky high on what they charge !!

[Blackjack555]

His city is a dump.

[JustinDBernardino]

I live here and I have to admit that it is untidy but with respect to what we do here, there are other states that far more deserve the title "dump."

[stuntchik]

I am so sick of this guy! Time for him to get the boot!

[bittergunowner12]

This moron wants to criticize Washington for not running while he can't even run his own city? What a jackass.

[JustinDBernardino]

He needs to understand that there are some things that are pure responsibilities of the state and there are those that are purely only for the Federal government. I'm sorry, but as an Angelino I even know that. He was the wrong choice from the beginning. He should have used his voice early on, not complain now! He is a disappointment here in the city of Los Angeles!

[lasuvidaboy]

The guy is'nt the brightest. He has a law degree but has never been able to pass the State Bar -even after numerous attempts. Read the truth about this sleeze bag in the L.A. Weekly.

[chessout]

He doesn't have a law degree. But he has a large degree of experience with real life Los Angeles business.

[JustinDBernardino]

I'm sorry but when you're going to do something that involves a legal mind you have to have a legal education. Maybe not a JD but at least some form of legal education, experience is not enough.

[cr500rebuild]

If you're referring to Villadumbshit - you are totally wrong. He HAS a law degree from People's College of Law, the worst law school in America - not even accredited. He also failed the bar exam ALL four times he took it. So, he's not a lawyer, and he went to a shit for brains law school.

[hamace]

On the flip side Obama has all the educational credentials in the world, yet he's as dumb as the previous president...who also went to Harvard. When you think of it, all the assholes in Congress are pretty well educated, they seem to have taken the Fuck everybody courses.

[bittergunowner12]

Your failure to govern your own city is criminal Mr Villaraigosa.

[79274333]

Villariagosa is a latino cunt

[cogitoergosum321]

How is his ethnicity relevant?

[IntelligentCreature]

poverty and inequality....

and he has the GUAL to side with the terrorist attacks on Gaza!!!

Sin Verguenza...to think he protested for latino rights as a youth for American Latinos in the 60s....

BTW...i disagree with his stance but HE IS AN AMERICAN BORN MAN...

SO Ur raciSt slurs are insulting and misleading to the public people...

I know he didn't pass the Bar Exam although he graduated from some hole in the wall law school....

so Villaragosa is just a good actor...

[worthlessnigger]

this fucking shitskinned wetback motherfucker should talk.

[IntelligentCreature]

lol...although i disagree with Villaragosa...

he is not a "wetback" (such a racist slur)

He is American Born, and protested in the '60s...but its ashame he's an uncle tom now....

[imissyesterday]

Now he's on the Prop 8 ban on same sex marriage. He has a lot of room to talk. A girlfriend on one side and a wife on the other. Just what we need is to be governed like Mexico. I would rather see us revert back to frontier day or third world than be under OBAMA's or his rule.

[stayplayamade242]

thats good let them fags stay in san francisco, don't hate the man for having game.

[jimhunt81]

You're the worst Mayor for any major city in the United States. You couldn't even take all the tax revenue we were getting in the housing booms and balance the budget!!

Now you want to raise our taxes cause if your faliure!

[beerrox711]

I think Ray Nagin sucks more than this guy at least 1 mil. pot holes no longer exist

[rentz46]

At least Nagin stays in his city. Vilar is only plotting his own political future.

[Krkrkillr]

The wetback mayor here doesn't know shit!L.A is much more dangerous,more of these wetback gang-bangers,These MS 13 Cockroaches festering in the streets,Can't wait till this wetback dog is out of office and he can rejoin his lil Narco-monkeys in TJ!

[xXBerkeley10xX]

You got it all wrong, buddy. The truth is that the U.S. has fortified the border, yet forgotten about the pull factors of the U.S. industrial complex. In other words, so long as there is demand for latin american labor, nothing can stop the influx of immigrants.

And as for your Narco comment, don't forget that you and your yankee cousins consume more drugs than any other country in the world. So keep on smokin' up yer meth and shootin' up them needles, it only keeps traffickers in business.

[christacdc]

hahaha me haces reir (lol)but im mexican,

[bkhoffman]

Mayor Bushraigosa has done nothing for the City of Los Angeles... he's to busy taking pictures. Things has gotten way worst in LA since he's taken charge, so what is he talking about... He talks out the side of his neck... Bushraigrosa is Foolish. Peace!

[frankieosf]

He's a piece of shit! He cares about press more than doing things for his city.

[rentz46]

He is a narcissist. He cares about being in front of the camera. Start running the city jackass(im latino)

[GREYMANTIS7]

Mexico city is far too big and close to the U.S., they will want to spread and make the U.S. a wasteland, an overpopulated wasteland, thats what they do, they have no clue either, its not just mexicans, its cuban's hatians,hoduranians, gutamalians, etc etc etc, their not smart enough to make their countries nice.

[schmomania]

If Texas and California were still part of Mexico those places be a wasteland like Mexico is. And all those gardeners named Jesus would be sneaking into Colorado. I like Mexicans, the cheap food (and girls in tight shirts), but they dont take care of their shit, and their kids run around like everywhere they go is a daycare. Have you ever scene a 'real' mexican with anything more than dirt for a yard? their gardening sucks, all they do is cut everything.

[SomeRandomGuy123]

Amen!

[beerrox711]

if what you say is true then why does Brantley, AL suck?

[DemonosZXZ]

Do you want to know why if they show people all the gang activity they will have to say maybe the war in iraq isn't so bad compared to this, people don't want to be afraid on the streets, but most importantly I shouldn't go shake a gangbangers hand over a drug deal and say least im not in iraq and call my self an american, and that is a huge threat to us I hope the government gets off there ass.

[Cygnus325]

I can't believe what I just heard! Mayor Villaraigosa is criticizing the federal government for not providing enough homeland security for LA??? WTF?? This dumb son-of-a-bitch is running a SANCTUARY city for crying out loud!! His whole agenda is all about allowing more illegals to pour in, ..yet he's whining about needing more homeland security??

[Mapanatl]

@Cygnus325 The only dumb SOB is YOU Stupid RACIST MAGGOT!!

Since his Tenure Los Angeles has dropped steadily in Crime. in another vid here; HE and the Chief of LAPD spoke that the Crime Rate specially MURDER has dropped below the 1977 Rate and has actually matched the 1964 RATE. even though he is "running a SANCTUARY" as you put it.

Obviously is not the "illegals" is it? However, it is about RACIST WHITE MAGGOTS scapegoating and making Racist Accusation and labeling innocent people

[netta2630]

You have a mayor who is telling it like it is. Do u know there is more security in NY ports than there is L.A? Which means that the goverment doesnt look pass the fucking Ozark mountains to what the hell is going on and won't care because of 9/11. So the Mayor of Los Angeles is telling people what they dont want to here about how the Government has let down it's people once again, with foreign contractors trying to buy out sections of land around the ports of call at the marinas.

[mainsculiacan]

a mutha fucker usa took california by force so if u dont like mexico why u go 2 t.j hu

and usa cant live wit out mexicans cuz mexicans made almost all the usa so shut da fuck up

[TheRealCritique]

Future freeloader on the CA welfare/penal system. Here, I'll try to speak at a level you understand...Y dun U gos 2 skool n lurn a langwaj u kans uz 2 gets uh job....

The hispanics built all the skyscrapers, and the interstate system, and fought all the wars, huh...yeah, ok, dumbass. How many hispanics in NASA or at MIT?

That requires reading and college MORON.

You're 17, better get a brain SOON PAL. If CA was mexican, it would look like TJ, not be the 6th economy in the world, dumb POS.

[raiderdawg2006]

As the former Speaker of the Assembly as well as a former city councilman and current mayor you have to take your share of responsibility Mr. Mayor.

[lovestacy2]

vote for mayor David zumma dog this tuesday if you live in L.A. This man is brilliant.

[darrellmellissa]

are you suggestin that we buid the illegals housing. that the feds should fit the whole bill. the citys should inforce there laws and guit begging for help' any one who supports the clintons is a socielest and a supporter of comunism. or a out right fabium.

[RASMISS]

I live in Miami and be it Reps or Dem I cant fathom voting Hispanic (I am Hispanic) the most corrupt do nothing parasites I ever seen (not all but so MANY). I had enough of them all and wont risk it.

[RASMISS]

actually it was Mexico who took CA illegaly from the Indians . Mexico stole it than sold it to USA. The same Mexicans who say Ca belongs to them wouldnt even think of returning it to the Indians if they did get CA back. The thinking of Mexico is "what is mine is mine and what is YOURS is also mine"

[alguzmn]

because they illegaly took half of their country, and now they're been called "illegals", if you only want to hear english only, go to England where you belong

Vote Any Democrat, Republicans are evil

[RASMISS]

Mexicans like to preach a lot but ask the REAL owners of the land Native Indians of boder states who they hate? It wont be Americans it will be Mexicans

[alguzmn]

Mexicans are indians, don't forget that, indians were killed by yankees, not by mexicans they are the same blood, California was not sold by Mexico, was taken away by force. There is not question that CA belongsd to U.S. Just don't live upon a lie, that it was taken legaly, because it wasn't that way, ask Ulysses Grant

[lancekosty]

It almost doesnt matter whether or not we stole CA in my opinion because we stole this country from Indians and basicly completed the genocide of a race, just as the spanish did to the Myans. Don't point fingers no-one is innocent.

[alguzmn]

I agree with you, my point is, don't pretend it didn't happened

[bubbalover71]

That may be the most ignorant post I've read, and that's saying a lot. First, Mexico is still repressing natives in Chiapas and Tabasco. Second, Mexico had to send troops to Texas, not the US. Thirdly, California was a Mexican territory that Mexico assumed ownership of arbitrarlily when Mexico gained independece.

Learn some history.

[alguzmn]

you need to get the real information, remember the winners write their history on their own favor. U.S stole Texas, not from Mexico, but from the real Texans who fought for their independence way before the Alamo, and none of them spoke english, and they're forgotten because they were not anglo

[alguzmn]

you need to get the real information, remember the winners write their history on their own favor. U.S stole Texas, not from Mexico, but from the real Texans who fought for their independence way before the Alamo, and none of them spoke english, and they're forgotten because they were not anglo

[lumberghfuctr]

mexican's are jumano and aztec and mayan, not choctaw or anything like that. Also Texans who fought for TExas indepence were White and Tejano, so SOME Of them SPOKE ENGLISH, and that was the LANGUAGE of the REPUBLIC of TEXAS.

[alguzmn]

realy?, you know what language spoke Antonio Seguin,(a Texan whou fought for their independence), Jose Antonio Navarro, and many more, they were not anglo parlant, they were fighting for their independence, but instead it became annexed. Texas was not seeking annexation, but independence, but U.S. who was trying to buy it from Mexico, sent settlers loyals to de U.S. seeking annexation.

The hero of the battle of 5 de Mayo, Ignacio Zaragoza who defeated the french, was a Texas native

[thevapour]

What a terrible mayor. All he can do is blame the federal government. You're the mayor, you have the power to address these problems. Why aren't you doing anything?

[costij01]

I guess La Raza could do better...Another worthless liberal race hustler.

[highway234]

i imagine just about anybody could do better than the bush administration. so yeah.

[RASMISS]

The Federal gvmt has been/is a failure in poverty-work,etc but so have you . You to talk a good game but thats all you do is talk ,give speeches.

[robertmalonesc]

so true

[andyb9]

what is this guy doing with his own tax dollars? 75% of what he addresses is HIS duty. do your job! quit blaming the federal gov. for all your problems.

[Mapanatl]

@andyb9 Hey you dumb ass Read my other posting here. Fucking Racist assholes.
