Laura Richardson has received $986,000 since early 2007 from donations all across the county.  Add her salary as Assemblywoman, $87,000, and add the $28,000 in tax-free Assembly per diem for living expenses, and you have a total of well over one million dollars donated to Laura in the past 18 months.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Where on earth did all that money go?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;You can view the list of contributors at &lt;a href="http://www.recalllaura.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;www.recalllaura.com&lt;/a&gt; with source links.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Recall Laura</dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 02 Jun 2008 07:29:14 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379026</link><description>You guys can't even do a political story without taking a shot at the PT.

By lb rez&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Whats even more disgusting, appalling and sickening is the fact that randy "hypocrite" gordons salary is being paid by memorial hospital (among others), from revenues received from payment for treatments of respiratory illnesses of Long Beach schoolchildren most probably caused by port pollution. This pollution, as we know, can be reduced but for some reason the chamber of whores continually fights pollution reduction legislation.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Way to go randy!

Good to see some you still carry the same drum throughout the site, bang "Bush lied"; bang "Randy Gordon is a whore", bang "make every issue about Bush or Gordon".  Your rythm section gets a bit dull when you drag it out for every issue.  This is about a member of the U.S. Congress cheating people in her unabashed quest for power.  Is there something in your DNA that prevents you from calling out Richardson just because she's Democrat?   Bang, bang, bang....</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">LBRez</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 15:26:36 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379019</link><description>To "Nota" at entry No. 7: Just because the P-T did it on purpose--and has been doing it for awhile--doesn't mean that the reporter wasn't misidentified. It's a misleading stunt to make readers think there are more reporters at the "local" paper.

Heck they probably raved about what enron was doing until their house of cards fell apart. She's only acting like an astute business person, losing someone else's money. Look for her to be the 2009 chamber of whores entrepreneur of the year.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just sour grapes by randy, oh hey what's happening lately with Ellis? Any new news about your beloved schoolchildrens respiratory illnesses?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">John</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 04:44:14 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379015</link><description>VOTE FOR PETER MATHEWS for crying out loud!</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">john tecumseh</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 04:18:59 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379013</link><description>Hey, give the congresswoman a break.  Just as she failed to pay her mortgage to research issues relating to the epidenmic of foreclosure, surely she's simply doing more research as to how much in unpaid receivables it takes before a small business goes belly up.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">lbwhiner</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 03:50:03 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379012</link><description>To continue the digression (#4, #5 in particular), it seems odd to claim that the executive branch has paid their bills considering their insane need to perpetuate irresponsible tax cuts, to continue funding the war in Iraq outside of the federal budget, and that many billions of dollars still remain unaccounted from the time when the "Coalition Provisional Authority" was in charge. I think if we compare ther bill that we have been asked to foot for our (granted) not-very-responsible Congressperson and the bill that we have yet to foot for the actions of our executive branch, it's a no-brainer. Speaking of no-brainer, I forgot to mention the on-going, ever-increasing bill that we will have to pay in order to adequately cover the medical expenses for our returning veterans. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But I digress. And I'm tired. Maybe Andy will show up.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Kelson</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 03:48:56 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379011</link><description>They didn't misidentify the writer, that's the way they've been doing things for years. "Staff Writer" means the writer is employed somewhere in the MediaNews empire, not that the writer actually works for that specific paper.

Anyone up for being her sign printer for the upcoming election?  Anyone? Bueller?  How about running her phone bank?  Sir Speedy should take her to small claims, that way she can have a foreclosure and a judgement on her record.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">LBRez</dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 30 May 2008 00:18:13 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379008</link><description>Looks like LBRez wants to claim "victim" status as well. Or at least "stiffed" status. This surely ranks highly in the annals of the foulest episodes of corruption and profiteering... somewhere just below just about everything the current executive branch has done. Glad we can all keep the proper perspective. Keep up the good work.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Kelson</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 29 May 2008 22:42:34 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: DAILY BREEZE: RICHARDSON PULLS A FAST ONE ON SIR SPEEDY | The District Weekly</title><link>http://thedistrictweekly.com/daily/writing-shotgun/daily-breeze-richardson-pulls-a-fast-one-on-sir-speedy/#comment-1379007</link><description>Ms. Richardson is one of the new breeds of people  in  todays political blameless society.
