Here it is, in the national media, in the Washington Post’s blog site, for tout le monde to see:
“San Francisco’s Spectacular Hypocrisy“
That bit from Amy Crawford has this nice quote about Proposition F (2012) from error-prone San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee:
“As insane as this is, it is, in fact, insane,” sputtered the usually mild-mannered Mayor Ed Lee when the initiative was announced.
Now, was it a mistake for San Francisco’s so-called Consensus Mayor to label Prop F (and, indirectly, the supporters of Prop F) as insane?
Yes. It’s not what he meant to say, it’s not what he actually thinks.
Now it certainly would be inconvenient for San Francisco to lose control of Hetch Hetchy, no argument there.
But IRL, it’s not “insane” to think that maybe, just maybe, it’d be a good idea to restore Hetchy Hetchy at some far off point in the future.
The Valley, the “counterpoint” to Yosemite, before San Francisco improperly grabbed it:
And I can see those waterfalls
And I can see those waterfalls
Click to become as “insane” as the half of San Francisco voters what are going to say “Yes” to Prop F (2012) come November.
