WE WANT CHANGE! [S.F. is acting up!]

Just watched the Factor and the issue was the homeless in San FranCRISCO. The local Hotels have started a campaign to protest the waste of money and no results. They have an interesting website, complete with a "forum"(more like a guestbook), where you can chime in.

They must be laboring under the mistaken impression that Pelosi has the power to do something for them. Time to wake up kids: she is now a political hack that isn't going to lift a finger to aid any cause that will make the Democrats look as hypocritical as they truly are.

It would be funny to see Trent Lott go out there and rally for change though!! LOL!

The interesting thing here is that you finally have the "upscale" crowd campaigning against the PC protected "poor".

I noticed that that fruitcake has his wedding ring on his right hand. Is that a gay thing?

Yes. From a gay site:

When lesbian and gay couples started wearing bands on their hands to signify a commitment, they were hesitant to wear them on the ring finger of the left hand. Many of them were not out at work and the people in their lives knew they weren't married in the traditional sense. Therefore, many of them chose the ring finger of the right hand so that the people they were out to would know what it meant but the world at large would not.

I don't know if it is a "gay" thing; but I once took a class with a young girl who was Greek Orthodox and she asked me about my wedding ring on my left hand. She told me that in her church they put the wedding ring on the right hand. I was surprised by that, as I had thought it would have been the same.

However, seeing that this is San Francisco, all bets are off as to why the ring is on the right hand.

Your city is run by Marxists ... the $200 million was used to attract the homeless. Take away their "comforts" and the homeless will go to work or go away.

I live in Wichita, but your point is precisely the solution.
They know it in Willie Brown's administration too. 200 million is a lot of money to manage. You'll need lotsa gummint workers to hand it all out......
