The Daily Press (SMDP, Nov. 8, page 1) informed us about the great victory of future councilman Bobby Shriver, and on page 8 your newspaper has a quote from Shriver: “They clearly want something,” he said. “They want something that they think I am going to get them.”
Strange statement, for sure, if I remember correctly, future councilman Shriver said that he will take care of the homeless. Now he tells us that “clearly we want something?” How about “giving us” what his brochures stated he would “give,” or better do, for the city of Santa Monica if he was elected? How fast one forgets when one is elected.
