I Guess Alameda County Supervisor Nadia Lockyer Is A Democrat?

by Smitty

When you’ve been this craven and this biased for this long, the default assumption is that any public figure experiencing ‘life difficulties’ must be a Democrat. Bill Lockyer is listed as a Democrat on Wikipedia. I guess the picture caption on SF Gate mentions them at a DP fundraiser. Then again, this is ‘Frisco, so the point that Nadia and hubby are Democrats is somewhere beyond no-brainer, clocking in around “brain in formaldehyde jar on some union boss’s desk”.

Now, if Nadia was evangelical, Tea Party, or otherwise a brain-toting conservative, this story:

We’re told that a sex tape of Nadia Lockyer and the man was given to her husband, state Treasurer Bill Lockyer, about six weeks before the Newark incident. The treasurer believed that the man, who has a history of arrests for alleged methamphetamine use, might make the tape public if forced to break off a romantic relationship with the supervisor.

. . .would have the prurient Lefty media discussing the incident with faux-Puritanical disgust. Or maybe actual disgust; the whole thing sounds bizarre.

And yet, I really don’t care. I’ve never watched a single one of these celebrity sex tapes. The only mildly interesting point is the media double-standard on reporting them.

  1. It took me roughly one nano second to figure out the guy in the picture is the woman’s husband. Not her lover. The only questions left unanswered-what was “The Newark Incident” and how many times did Bill watch the tape?

  2. Lockyer is one of the worst kind of smarmy Democrats, getting himself elected to serial offices. I find his ‘difficulties’ amusing as well – and the contortions reporters have gotten into trying to AVOID saying anything… it’s hilarious!

    “HIS WIFE was assaulted by and ex-boyfriend when she met with him after fighting with HER HUSBAND…”HIS (Bill Lockyer’s) WIFE was assaulted by and ex-boyfriend when she met with him (the boyfriend) after fighting with HER HUSBAND…(Bill Lockyer)Such convoluted wording. Trying to keep Bill Lockyer’s name out of the news?Then… “According to columnists Phillip Matier and Andrew Ross, Bill Lockyer said his wife believed her former boyfriend was in crisis, but that he was angry and “violently assaulted” her.” (The boyfriend was angry and “violently assaulted” her? Or Bill Lockyer was angry and “violently assaulted” her?So – I THINK the author means the boyfriend was angry and “violently assaulted” her…BUT… given the convolution, could the “he” be interpreted as “Bill Lockyer” (was angry and “violently assaulted” her.) just as easily?

  3. It’s clarified here: ? Bill Lockyer says wife assaulted by ex-boyfriend (Much better writing) Matier & Ross/SF Chronicle

    Alameda County Supervisor Nadia Lockyer, wife of state Treasurer Bill Lockyer, was “violently assaulted” by an ex-boyfriend she met up with at a Newark motel after the Lockyers fought, her husband says…. this weekend, he and his wife are attending the state Democratic convention in San Diego….
    .
    See – after the Lockyers fought, much clearer.
