Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is in Washington D.C., meeting with Mexican President Felipe Calderon, but his deputy chief of staff issued the following statement: “The mayor stands strongly behind the city council and he will not respond to threats from the state that has isolated itself from an America that values freedom, liberty and basic civil rights.”

Councilmember Tom LaBonge said he’d like to talk with Pierce. LaBonge said the city needs to look into its long standing utility agreements with Arizona.

LaBonge met Wednesday morning with LA Department of Water and Power officials.

“We have right of ownership of the power plants,” LaBonge told NBCLA. “We partially own them.”

How do I know it’s a rwnj? That first sentence “sent to the blog Hot Air”. If you’ve ever read the comments over there, you can see I’m safely within the 95% accuracy range of guessing someone who’s first thought was to send the threat there is a rwnj. Funny that LA has partial ownerships of the plants anyway.
