Luke Ravenstahl stars as George W. Bush in "The Pet Goat"

Notice the striking similarities of our beloved Mayor Luke "Fuckhead" Ravenstahl and President George W. Bush as Luke strikes the "Deer-in-Headlights" pose made famous by W. Bush on the morning September 11th. Expect more Bush style clueless leadership over the next two years if Pittsburghers are stupid enough to elect Ravenstahl as mayor on November 6th.

Pittsburgh leading liberal blog 2PJ's endorses.......Mark DeSantis for Mayor!

Luke Ravenstahl's "Tail-Gate" might be the nail in the coffin. There are too many blogs out there with coverage of this SUV incident but I have to say I was entertained by the post and image over at 2 Political Junkies, whose author is latest in a line of liberals to endorse Mark DeSantis for mayor. I've been telling my friends since I met him - despite being a Republican Mark DeSantis, believe or not, may be the most liberal of all Pittsburgh mayors in recent history. Pittsburgh Democrats are, for the most part, conservative Democrats. They are similar to the Blue Dog Dems that gained notoriety during the last big election. This alone should make liberal Democrats here in Pittsburgh weary of voting the party line. The fact that mayor Ravenstahl behaves more like George W. Bush than his Republican counterpart further proves my point.

November 6th, 2007

November 6th 2007 will mark the first time that I vote for a Republican. The other day I met Mark DeSantis in Bloomfield. At first, I admit, I was skeptical. I never thought I would ever meet a Republican that I had anything in common with. I gave Mr. DeSantis an opportunity to convince me he was different though. And he did. Mark is not only a supporter of unions, but he is pro-choice, believes in providing economic opportunities for minorities, and he believes in protecting the environment. I was also shocked to hear that he received the endorsement of this group. Mark DeSantis is a liberal Republican. He did not say this himself, but following my conversation with him I spoke with this democratic blogger who has been following Mark since the start of his campaign.

While I have become disenchanted with politics after witnessing the buffoons we have in local and national office, I am going to follow Mr. DeSantis and his campaign closely and I will almost certainly vote for him over Luke Ravenstahl. I urge other Pittsburgh progressives to do the same. Mayor Luke Ravestahl is a DINO like this guy and is making a mockery out of our city and the office of mayor. If you have the opportunity to see Mark DeSantis in your neighborhood I encourage you to introduce yourself to him. Ask tough questions like I did and he is sure to give you a candid response.
