Maybe we'd be better off if the mayor was still running for governor. That way at least he might muster serve energy to pay attention to the city's affairs instead of his own. At least to protect his record.
Ever since he declared he was committed to deal with LA's financial crisis and many other problems, the mayor has been on the road partying.
Africa. Iceland. And now Las Vegas where TMZ got this photo of him with girlfriend Lu Parker, the TV news anchor, at the topless pool at Caesar's Palace last Monday when he was speaking at the Clean Energy Summit. So there may be more to his passion for environmental issues than just political advantage and billions for his pals.
Meanwhile, there's a $300 million to $500 million hole in the city budget, the early retirement deal they cut is falling apart and, like the mayor, the City Council is on vacation, too.
Shameless is taking on new meaning. Just say LA.
