A guess a real by the bootstrap republican would ask why Mr Hayes never tried to secure a long term lease to protect his organization interests, since develop has been creeping at his doorstep since 1997? Which by the way is a standard practice for nonprofits in that type of situation.

The democrats do not like to see minorities that are conservative.

Go to Hayes website. He reports exactly what the landlord said. If it’s not about the landlord’s political opinions, then Hayes is a liar.

I meant “not immediately believable.” Sorry

Ted Hayes has gotten quite a bit of criticism in Los Angeles, not just because of his political affiliation, but because he, apparently, left his wife and daughter to live and work full time at the Dome Village.

Of course, liberals do not attack Bill Clinton the way they attack Ted Hayes down here, and there is no evidence that he cheated on his wife.

I will say that sooner or later, this was bound to happen because the area around the Staples Center is attracting lots of development dollars right now, so Mr. Haye’s claim that this was done out of spite is immediately believable.

Liberals are still being as condescending and mean as ever about this. On another website, I read one liberal berate Mr. Hayes for having the audacity to complain about his “liberal landlord giving him a discount” and being so ungrateful.

Honestly, I think Mr. Hayes just needs to move on at this point. His pet project, as virtuous as it is, could not have possible lasted forever.

“…Democrats are intolerant of many things, including Christianity…”

What’s ironic is that there are a lot of church-going black people who vote Democrat.

Typical Libs *cough cough Clayton…cough*
throwing their 1 penny in, while the rest of us shoulder the burden.

I COMMEND Mr. Hayes for not suing, and like others, hopes he finds a new place for himself and his homeless families soon.

La Shawn – you might want to check out Ted Hayes’ own website.

It has an interview he did with Hannity and Colmes on Fox on it.

I think it is pretty obvious from the story that the landlord did do this out of petty spitefulness.

PS – thanks for your spell check button – that’s great!!

And, let it be noted that if it were a black LIBERAL tenant and an evil, white, Republican landlord Clayton and others would likely be screaming and caterwauling about racism and who knows what else. Jesse Jackson would get involved (where is he, by the way? Shouldn’t he be standing by Mr. Hayes and screaming for justice or something?)…and the ACLU? The NAACP? Does anyone else hear crickets chirping?

I applaud Mr. Hayes for his strength of character.

Happy New Year to you, LaShawn!! Hope 2006 is even more blessed and fabulous than 2005.

Clayton, try to pay attention. We don’t need real estate lessons from you. No one is arguing that the property owner can’t do with his property what he wants, not even Hayes. Your implication was that Hayes was trying to hide facts, and I pointed out that he wasn’t. So in my assessment, your “gotcha” moment was limp.

If you want to change it up now, go ahead. It’s a free country. You libs entertain me. You really do.

Lets see the idiot liberal is sitting on property that has more than likely has a massive jump in value. But, somehow this is about politics? I wonder how many others are being displaced by this revitalization?

What are the two basic rules in Real Estate? Location and timing or maybe I just played a little to much Monopoly. Not a “gotcha” moment just trying to put some facts to some people’s version of the truth.

How boring life would be without clever folks like you in it, Clayton. Ted Hayes made reference to the Staple Center, so your “five minutes of research” could have been spent on something productive. The building owner can raise his rent to take advantage of revitalization AND because Hayes is a Republican. Your “gotcha” moment is, predictably, limp.

The issue is whether the liberal idiot indeed raised the rent because of Hayes’s political affiliation, not whether there’s revitalization going on near the Center. But as Hayes and most conservatives would say, the property owner is well within his right to raise the rent for any reason.

I hope Mr. Hayes can find a new location to continue serving the homeless and modeling true compassion.
