Support Obama; Four Million Felons Can’t be Wrong
2008-10-05 19:49:00 The AP unwittingly has stumbled over one of the ways the Demoats are using to gain power in November: Fostering the Felon vote. RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Undaunted by the heat, James Bailey spent his late-summer afternoons walking Virginia’s bleakest neighborhoods on the hunt for ex-cons — each a potential voter who might cast the decisive ballot in this hotly contested state. Finding them isn’t the hard part. It’s getting them to admit that a past mistake has kept them from the ballot box. “People are really, really reluctant to say, ‘I lost my rights to vote,’” Bailey said of his quest, which continued in the run-up to Monday’s registration deadline in Virginia for the November election. Nationally, there are roughly 4 million released felons whose convictions have cost them the right to vote at least temporarily, if not permanently. To return to the ballot box, felons must negotiate suffrage laws that vary from state to state, in man...

$34.5 million Laguna home is O.C.’s second priciest sale
2008-09-10 11:52:00 County records show that an Emerald Bay home on the Laguna Beach sand sold for $34.5 million in February. The legal paperwork identified the buyers as Louis and Michu Welch, who previously owned another property behind the gates in Emerald Bay. There’s no confirmation whether that’s the same Louis Welch who is president of Irvine-based LA Fitness International LLC. Sellers were real estate executive William Shopoff and his wife, Cindy. This is the second-highest O.C. price for a completed transaction, only trailing the $35 million that actor Nicolas Cage pocketed from the sale of his Newport Beach home on the Lido Channel in January. The Emerald Bay home (click to the enlarge satellite photo from Google Earth) last sold for $22.5 million in December 2005. That $12 million price jump in just over two years is better than the $10 million in appreciation that Cage got for his Newport Bay home. Why the big price? Agents say there are just 14 homes abutting the sand in Emeral...
5 million in five hours for McCain… In Chicago?
2008-09-09 15:19:00 CHICAGO (CBS) ― Republican John McCain raised about $5 million in Chicago Monday night, or about $1 million for each hour he spent in Democrat Barack Obama’s home town. CBS 2 Political Editor Mike Flannery reports the only glimpse of McCain the public got came as his motorcade departed. Like every Republican presidential nominee since 1984, McCain appears to regard campaigning in heavily Democratic Illinois a waste of time.  Gee, maybe not, given those numbers. That speaks to me of distatse for Obama… even in his hometown. It seems reasonable to consider the idea that the polling data we’re seeing of late seriously under-estimates how much support Obama has lost.

Detroit Mayor to serve 120 days in jail, repay $1 million, surrender law li
2008-09-04 18:56:00 Damn, and I thought former Washington, D.C. Mayor, Marion Barry was the world's worst mayor...I'm posting this in honor of T-Baby. I feel your pain. Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick has pleaded guilty, ending a nearly eight month drama that has transfixed the region, paralyzed much of city business and halted a political career that once held such promise. The deal calls for Kilpatrick to plead guilty to two felony counts of obstruction of justice by committing perjury, agreeing to serve four months in jail, pay up to $1 million in restitution, and serve five years' probation. He also agreed not to run for office during that five-year span. The mayor will turn over his state pension to the City of Detroit, which paid $8.4 million to settle two whistle-blower lawsuits three former cops filed against the city. The mayor was charged with eight felony counts ranging from conspiracy to perjury to misconduct in office to obstruction of justice after the Free Press revealed that the ...

Deportation flights cost $51 million
2008-08-11 01:17:00 Deportation flights cost $51 million TUCSON, Arizona - The U.S. government has spent more than $51 million over the past four summers flying nearly 64,000 illegal immigrants back to the Mexican interior after they were caught crossing the border. The flights are aimed at reducing the chances of immigrants recrossing the border by flying them to Mexico City, rather than busing them back to the Mexican border where they are susceptible to smugglers awaiting them with offers to try again. Illegal immigrants from countries other than Mexico can’t take the flights. But the Arizona Daily Star reported Sunday that critics said the program hasn’t made a substantial difference in lessening smuggling or the number of deaths that occur as immigrants sneak across the border. In the 362 days the voluntary flights were offered during 2004-2007, the bodies of 342 illegal immigrants were discovered along Arizona’s stretch of the U.S-Mexico border — nearly one per day, southern ...

Calif. Coastal reports $3.1 million loss
2008-08-09 02:15:00 Homebuilder California Coastal Communities in Irvine reported today that its losses soared to $3.1 million in the second quarter compared to a $400,000 loss for the same period last year. The biggest bright note in the company’s earnings report was the new homes coming online at its Brightwater development in Huntington Beach overlooking the ocean and the Bolsa Chica Wetlands. The company reported a gross second quarter operating profit of $2.2 million generated by the delivery of seven Brightwater coastal homes and eight houses in the inland areas. Earnings were hurt, however, by a $5 million write-down on the company’s Las Colinas project in Lancaster and the Alisal project in Ontario due to expected lower sales prices and increased concessions. Last year the company reported $300,000 in second quarter gross operating profit but had no write-downs.
