A Sign Of Intelligence In San Francisco?

Posted by: Laer at 01:03 pm

S

ure, 84% of San Franciscans voted for Obama, and 71% thought Pelosi was doing a fine job.  Not surprisingly, 76% were ready to abandon thousands of years of tradition so gays could marry.  But even so, there were signs of intelligence deep down the SF ballot.

Most significantly, a measure to re-name the city’s Oceanside Water Treatment Plant - you know, the crap-cleaner - after Pres. Bush was overwhelmingly rejected, with almost 70% voting that’s no way to treat a president.  The White House declined comment, but I’m sure they were flushed with enthusiasm.

Also, Babylon by the Bay voters decided by a 57/43 margin that legalizing prostitution probably was not a hot idea.  It looks like being a “sex worker” is still not a mainstream occupation, even in San Francisco.

Still, I think I’ll stay down here in OC … and start gathering signatures to rename our wastewater plant after Gavin Newsome.  I bet I could get more than 30% of OC behind that!

With Obama winning the presidency by seven percent, we can't blame the media. Their laudatory coverage and refusal to extensively probe into Obama's background and [lack of] experience was at best responsible for five percent of his vote, the pundits tell us. Here is a compilation of over 100 significant instances of pro-Obama/anti-McCain bias during the 2008 campaign.
