Tonight Mayor Sam Adams will be the featured guest on KGW’s “Straight Talk” at 6:30 5:30 pm, with Laurel Porter. Here are some of the topics I hope they discuss:
“Why straight people love Sandra Bullock movies.”
“Why Ellen DeGeneres is okay, and Adam Lambert’s not.”
“Why straight people wear bluetooths in their ear… ALL THE TIME.”
“Why straights love co-opting gay culture, yet hog the institution of marriage.”
“Straights slumming in gay bars.”
“Why straights hate homoerotica, but go nuts for the Superbowl.”
“Why straights like having a gay acquaintance, so they can say, ‘Hey… some of my best friends are gay.'”
“Wearing Crocs!”
“And for that matter, Columbia Sportswear!”
“Straights: Why they Love Vancouver and Toyota Tundras.”
“Ultimate Frisbee: WTF?”
Feel free to add your own suggestions below!

Funny how Adams can’t answer a Recall question without telling Portlanders what they are:

Then there is his lame City Club ploy to get the crowd to clap at the end of a Recall question. Kudos to Roy K. on that one.

Laurel read Sam the resignation letter he wrote last January; then she asked him three times why he didn’t submit it. He did not answer the question….the man looked so stupid going on about how he is focused on increasing the number of kids who graduate from the eighth grade….one wonders if he understands English any more. Why didn’t he answer the question? ….I’m heading out to sign the recall petition. Come on Portland, let’s get those numbers we need to let Sam know we do care about integrity in our city leadership.
After reading the letter of resignation he wrote last January, Laurel asked Sam three times why he didn’t submit it. He was unable to deal with a direct question. He said it is because he is focusing on having more Portland kids graduate from the 8th grade. Three times!!!! His entire performance was evasive, amatuerish, and pathetic. I am off to sign the recall petition…..we need a mayor that can answer a simple question in a straightforward way. Come on Portland, we need those signatures.

Can the Mercury make a drinking game for the number of times Adams says a variant of focus, ‘fair minded’, ‘the controversy’ and of course sustainable.
Impressive. Most impressive. The hate is strong in this one. Now, release your anger![/Darth Vader voice]
Sam can teach you the Jedi trick of ‘Focus’ here:
