Show me the money! In the game of political chess, former Mayor Willie Brown is the king behind pawn (Ed Lee), pulling the strings in San Francisco politics and doing the bidding of his development clients to maintain control of Room 200 and its $7 billion purse.
Willie’s mantra: What’s good for Willie is good for San Francisco.

I just shared this on FB, as I have several others of yours of late, and I thought you’d like to know, again, that your photos aren’t loading there, probably not on Google Plus either, especially since your site is so well known for your photography.
