Wow...it's amazing; I CAN predict the future! (please see post from 2 days ago)

I can just imagine the others Sam was considering.
Limited to those who's interest is in conflict with any effort to reveal the past and present schemes that obscure and divert 100s of millions in tax dollars every year.
All the while the man without any integrity, Adams, plots his next attack on the taxpayers, basic services and the infrastructure he neglects.

I'm disgusted by the concept that real estate business interests are the PDC's only constituency. I think it's safe to assume that Adams as mayor will deliver Portland to the privileged even more effectively than at present.

Has anyone heard the ads for the PDC lately? The ones about the lead testing? Everytime I hear that ad come on, I start seeing red as I cannot believe the audacity the PDC has shown in trying to get us to watch the left hand while the right hand is grabbing us by our soft spots.

I'm partial to the UC myself. Not a member, but occasional guest and I've enjoyed my open bar invites. Does that answer your question?
But you guys are forgetting that Sam is gay and very progressive. He says that all the time, so it must be true. So when he does something like this that blatantly contradicts the image he tries so hard to cultivate, you just have to realize that any cognitive dissonance you are experiencing must be due to the "right winger" types who visit this blog.

The University Club is livelier, but Arlington Club has better food. Real estate interests congregate in the Members Grille at the UC after work. Banking and finance people go to the AC for breakfast and sometimes lunch.
