We did it in Los Angeles, so we're now taking over the City by the Bay. Join us in our effort as we begin to expose shady corrupt government near the Golden Gate.

Text of Mayor Gavin Newsom's statement

Monday, February 05, 2007

"Thank you all for coming here on short notice. I want to make it clear that everything you've heard and read is true, and I am deeply sorry about that. I have hurt someone I care deeply about -- Alex Tourk -- and his friends and family, and that is something that I have to live with and something that I am deeply sorry for.

"I am also sorry that I have let the people of San Francisco down. They expect a lot of their mayor, and my personal lapse of judgment aside, I am committed to restoring their trust and confidence and will work very hard in the upcoming months to make sure that the business of running this city is framed appropriately.

"I also want to extend a personal apology to everyone in our administration, to my staff that I just met with, to my friends and my family members. I am deeply sorry and am accountable for what has occurred and have now begun the process of reconciling it and now will be working aggressively to advance our agenda in this city and to work hard to build again the trust, restore the trust, that the people of San Francisco have afforded me. I appreciate everyone taking the time to be here today. Thank you very much."
