It’s Wednesday, yet again.
This week has been such a trainwreck in local government that I don’t even know where to start.
After he solved all other city problems, appeased the Hill District and came up with a quantum mechanics theory that would allow the Casino garage to co-exist with the Pittsburgh Skyline, boy-Mayor Ravenstahl threatened the city council. He then resorted to school-yard tactics when he was reported to have said, “My dad can beat up your dad.” Nice to see that City Hall has turned into a sandbox that’s probably full of cat shit. It’s just hard to figure out who on the council didn’t eat it. My guess is Peduto didn’t eat it; perhaps Kraus didn’t either, but it was thrown at him:
“His exact words to me were, ‘We’re coming after you,’” Mr. Kraus said. “I said, ‘If you feel that best serves the interests of the people of Pittsburgh, to cripple city council, have at it.’”
Mr. Kraus added that the mayor specifically threatened to cut council staff salaries, and said, “‘And there’s more where that came from.’”
PittGirl compared the dialog to Under Siege 3 (there was a third?). I think it was more comparable to Striking Distance.
On the national scene, I’ve stopped counting how many articles there are for Obama and Clinton. The Democratic Party side of things has become such a farce I don’t even want to read about it anymore. I will say that Hillary Clinton is just grasping at straws at the moment. Her credibility is shot, especially when you have Sinbad making fun of you.
“I made a mistake in describing it,” Mrs. Clinton told reporters yesterday. “We were very much told by the Secret Service and the military that we were going into a war zone, and we had to be conscious of that.

She said she ‘misspoke’. The video showed her calmly walking out of the plane with her daughter right behind her. No sense of urgency or fear. That’s not misspeaking, Clinton, that’s just flat-out lying.
So, what to do now? let’s rehash what Obama respectively settled last week. The Clinton Dog and Pony show. Which one is Clinton, the dog or pony?
