As I have said in the past, I will defend any elected officials’ pet projects. Whether that is mentorship, physical education, youth drug prevention or adoption. I say use the bully pulpit for your causes. But you do know you don’t have to actually participate? Just take your own example, a year after announcing Sioux 52 mentorship program you turned it over to the HelpLine center with taxpayer money.
The other day a friend said to me, “Yeah, Mayor TenHaken was working out with my kid today at school during PE class.” Sure enough, he was bragging about it on social media. (you know the Personal account, not associated w/ City of SF except when he posts things he does as the capacity of the mayor).
I know you run a closed door, authoritarian, cruise control government but between 8-5, Monday-Friday, can the adults of this city have your attention in-between your kick ball games and fitness challenges?
I bring this up because I know of several groups who have requested meetings with the mayor and been denied. I’m sure he could squeeze in a couple of more meetings with constituents if he gave up playing tiddlywinks and marbles with the kids.
Maybe transparent means not showing up for work.
Jack LaLanne and Chick-fil-A, how does one spin that quantum duality?
The next mayor must be female. There’s not a male candidate who didn’t touch a woman 30 years ago in a department store. Then also, Kamala AllYeFaithful for President.
“Say, if the Mayor is hanging out with the kids at schools nowadays, then maybe he could bring his tool bag there for ‘Show & Tell'”…. #NeverTooEarlyToLearn
Paul, Look at Me, Ten Haken always knows where a camera is.
DS, tell us more about your past shopping experiences.
DS, might be right. Do you remember this scene from’ St. Elmo’s fire’? Al, a character in that movie, was a young Democrat, who then went to work for a Republican Senator…. (Wasn’t Trump once a Democrat?)….:
