In the spirit of the late Albert Einstein, there is no need to waste precious brain cells on which district, which boundaries will eventually encompass Districts 27 and 34. Suffice to say candidates are running for "Congress".

With so many local politicos seeking office it may be necessary to assign each of them a number. Eddie Lucio, Jr's number is easy and obvious-21,000,000, the number of taxpayer dollars he flushed down the veritable commode in his Port of Brownsville fiasco. For the Majority 4 at BISD, Escobedo, Saavedra, Presas-Garcia and Longoria the number is 14,000,000, the number of our children's educational dollars they kissed bye-bye to under the influence of convicted racketeer Carlos Quintanilla in behalf of multi-millionaire Ted Parker, former owner of HealthSmart.Adela Garza's number is much larger, 200,000,000. That is the dollar value of assets she and three of her cohorts Trey Mendez, Francisco Rendon and Rene Torres successfully protected when they blocked efforts by UTB President Juliet Garcia to donate those considerable assets to the University of Texas system. Of course, the taxpayers still will be paying for those tangible assets for the next 20 years, but with ownership, not as a donation to one of the richest educational entities in the world. Split the recovery four ways with the Linebarger recovery fee in effect and each of the above-mentioned trustees would qualify for a $7,500,000 commission.
But, there's more. Slimeball "Representative" Rene Oliveira tried to sabotage the preservation of Texas Southmost College and its considerable assets with a traitorous move in the Texas House of Representatives by totally misrepresenting what the TSC Board of Trustees had just voted on. Garza raced up to Austin, lobbied the committee considering the potentially disastrous bill and thwarted Oliveira's community backstab. That's a proactive move that none of Garza's opponents, Democrat or Republican can lay claim to.
We will allow the two videos below to speak to Garza's values, motivation to seek higher office and vision for the district:
i sorta liked Adela until I saw her next to aaron "burr" pena. he's the slimeball Democrat who turned slimeball Republican then tried to slyly salamander a republican district in hidalgo county. Yecchhh!!
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you....Adela is just another person who is wrong and is saying that she's good for congress or whatever but does she really know that? And this whole thing is about how Endorsers were wrong in who they picked but are they themselves know what they're saying or who they're talking about? Plus, don't people have a right to choose who to endorse without other people stabbing them in the back with a pencil? I HOPE SO!?! So I HOPE that this is not just another setup to get people to think all is well....They did that with Obama! Is all well? Answer me that! This obama care is giving the government more money than they can handle and taxes are increasing! People are starting to leave the United States because of that, and do you think Adella's gonna help that?! I DON'T THINK SO! I bet Obama is laughing in our faces! Furthermore, I also think that Adella is another person that the media is setting up as "good."
Deletethank god the republicans can't get elected in this new distrcit. adela is just all wrong
ReplyDeleteExcuse me all the democRATS are CORRUPT MIERDA THAT'S A BETTER OPTION????????
DeleteComments here are typical of Cameron County....no knowledge of the candidate or the candidates qualifications or experience.....just the party logo. Disqualificatiion due to party logo is indicative of the political ignorance that exists in this area. Perhaps it is because this kind of choice is easier than learning about the candidates. Remember "read" is just another 4-letter word in this community. What has the Democratic Party brought us...corruption, fraud, no jobs, no jobs, and no progress. Democratic officials believe in the old addage...."Keep the voters barefoot, pregnant and stupid"....to protect their corruption, etc.
ReplyDeleteDittos you are 100% correct.
DeleteAdela Garza = Sylvia Atkinson
DeleteAnony@8:19am.....Well said!
ReplyDeleteAgree with anon of 8:19 AM. Individuals who won't bother to educate themselves and learn more about a candidate will usually look at the "parenthesized letter" following the name. As well stated by Anon of 8:19, a great percentage of Cameron County voters still exercise the "palanca" mentality. If the letter (D) appears, rest assured this person will gather the majority of the vote. If an (R) is indicated, the candidate is assumed to be for the rich and powerful and will only benefit himself/herself. Some old habits are hard to shake.
ReplyDeleteAdela's candidacy is a joke and our City will suffer greatly if she is elected into office which no one actually believes will happen. What has she done in the time she has been in office? Does she really want her political life exposed for everyone to see? Does she want it out there that all she is securing is a job for her cronies? She work under Farenthold for the past year and a half, how productive was his tenure in office? She should save her money, this joke is really going to cost her.
ReplyDeleteI just want to know where "DSC" is and why she is going there.
ReplyDelete(I just want to know where "DSC" is and why she is going there.)
ReplyDeleteHaha. That's so funny. She said that at the 2:44 mark of the second video. What an idiot! Is this the best the Republicans can offer?
(That's a proactive move that none of Garza's opponents, Democrat or Republican can lay claim to.)
ReplyDeleteNone of her opponents can claim to have hired Sylvia Atkinson like Adela did.
(None of her opponents can claim to have hired Sylvia Atkinson like Adela did.)
ReplyDeleteI forgot about that. Thanks for reminding us Melissa.
It wasn't necessarily Melissa. A lot of people remember Sylvia here in Los Fresnos. We laugh that you idiots let her into the tent in Brownsville.
ReplyDeleteYes you do remember Little Sylvia, LF ended up buying her out just to get rid of her and she laughed all the way to the bank. So who was the idiot back then. Look, Los Fresnos is a chicken-shit little nothing of a town, so don't get all full of yourself.
DeleteNot a Little Sylvia fan, but if you think that she was hired just because there was a opening and she had the qualifications, think again, this is not over yet and she has just begun her reign of terror.
"None of her opponents can claim to have hired Sylvia Atkinson like Adela did."
ReplyDeletewhen and where did Adela hire Aylvia Atkinson?
Wow she can't even speak publicly well and she wants to go to Congress in "DSC" and represent us. This is a joke what has she even done for us nothing!! This is a joke of a candidate
ReplyDeletesoloMAMON didn't EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH AND HE WAS OUR CONGRESSMAN FOR 28 YRS.!!!
DeletesoloMAMON DID NOTHING FOR US HIS ENTIRE TENURE OF 28 YEARS!!!
For you to make such statements YOU ARE THE JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!
And neither will Adela because can't communicate. So what's your point?
DeleteHer greatest mistake was in paying you to post this shit. An endorsement from you dooms anyone even thinking of running for office. What a shame, she fizzled the same night she announced.
ReplyDelete"when and where did Adela hire Aylvia Atkinson?"
ReplyDeleteAdela was the deciding vote to hire Sylvia Atkinson as superintendent when Adela sat on the school board in Los Fresnos. This hire doomed her reelection bid. She ran a third time and lost.
A vote for Adela Garza is a vote for Sylvia Atkinson. A vote for Adela Garza is a vote for Blake Farenthold. A vote for Adela Garza is a vote against the children of Cameron County.
ReplyDeleteWhat a joke "a vote against the children of Cameron County" How so????? Explain your comment? Such empty rhetoric. Typical LIBERAL BULLSHIT!!!!!!
DeleteLos Fresnos Independent School District
Delete(What a joke "a vote against the children of Cameron County" How so????? Explain your comment? Such empty rhetoric. Typical LIBERAL BULLSHIT!!!!!!)
DeleteShe can barely speak English. She is promising everything and anything to get elected. That's liberal bullshit.
Adela, is it nice to have your future son in-law David Polin collecting TWO salaries from your previous boss Farenthold? Check it out here:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.legistorm.com/member/2822/Rep_Blake_Farenthold_TX/143.html
"IF" we "Probably" want to create jobs we should certainly vote Adela "DSC" Garza. Her "economic plan" at 3:00 minute mark on the second video. I would also like to congratulate Adela Garzas daughter on here marriage to David Polin (Blake Farenthold's Brownsville "campaign manager" & failed "DSC" staffer & cousin to Kiko "TSC" Rendon). How is that monarchy working out for you? LOL
ReplyDeleteso she wants to creat jobs for her son-in-law David Polin who can't get a job anywhere else because he is a convicted felon?
Deletecheck voting record
Deletealcohol and driving don't mix
DeleteAsk Adela if she is going to follow in Blake's footsteps and hire a convicted felon to work on her staff. Is she going to have him as her "campaign manager" too?
ReplyDeleteAdela Garza + Sylvia Atkinson = Screwed over Los Fersnos School District
ReplyDeleteJim, how coud you support a candidate that is in bed with Sylvia Atkinson and will hire convicted felons to serve on her staff who are now related to her by marriage. Didn't y ou tell us those were the things we were against?
ReplyDeleteWe try to report on all of the candidates that invite us to their events. If you will scroll down the list of stories, you will see that Nena and I covered Anthony Troiani and Denise Blanchard's announcements, giving our overall impression of the event and including video allowing the candidate to state their vision.
DeleteJim
Anonymous from February 5, 2012 at 7:53 p.m.: Jim is a user and a hypocrite. If he doesn't like a certain candidate, he bashes them and their families. He claims to be neutral but he is not. He has made it quite clear that Mrs. Adela Garza and Mrs. Yolanda Begum are his favorites. He claims to states something that he is so against in one race, but it is quite alright in another race.
DeleteJim, I can't believe you approve such filth comments to be posted about David Polin. Where is the proof that Adela's future son-in-law is a convicted felon?
ReplyDeleteThe big question is does the deal still stand if Adela loses?
DeleteDavid Polin does not show up on the Texas Dept. of Public Safety list of convicted felons.

done be ignorant. run a criminal backgroun check
Deletewe have run the backgroun check. all her opponents have as well
Delete@anony post Feb 6 2012 08:40pm
DeleteWell if he does not show up as a felon on the Texas Department of Public Safety's website that lists convicted felons in the State of Texas, isn't that the same as running a criminal background check dumbass.
I guess that I "done be ignorant."
you are too easy AnonymousFeb 8, 2012 07:20 PM

Delete(check county records of convictions, and i dont mean cameron county)
DeleteIf you know something you should tell us already because you sound like a bullshit artist trying to tarnish a good person.
OMG! Incredible!
ReplyDelete(we have run the backgroun check. all her opponents have as well)
ReplyDeletePft! Democrats are one to talk.
(Pft! Democrats are one to talk.)
ReplyDeleteher opponent in the primary is not a democrta stupid
Adela Garza hired Sylvia Adkinson IS THAT the best you got?? The City of Brownsville elected ESCOBEDO PRESAS GARCIA and DUMBASS LUCY LONGORIA and Christina Saaverdra!!!! They also hired Sylvia Atdtkison where is the outrage People??? The real deal breaker is that they are still in office. Evidence will show they are walking on very thin ice oops I think I hear the ice cracking!! I would respect your opinions more if you'd not blog as anomnymous! I support Adela Garza
ReplyDeleteSo you admit that Adela falls in the category of Escobedo, Cati and Lucy! How then can you support Adela being guilty of the same thing? Just because she's your buddy doesn't make her the right candidate Maggie.
Deletewow, she really did say DSC. Maybe because she is used to saying TSC. she is a very likeable lady and I wish her the best. But I doubt that she stands a chance in this race.

Paid for by the Committee to Elect Adela Garza | William "Boozin' Bill" Hudson, Treasurer.
Maggie...How much are you getting? Believe me, it isn't enough.
ReplyDeleteWow....This is...interesting!
ReplyDeletePost affair coverage in a single photo, Here. nobody died, but the campaign was declared a total loss.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!
ReplyDeleteIm pretty sure Adela has only the support of her inner-circle people... Her opponent has got like a thousand petition signatures from just Cameron County I heard.... Adela also THINKS she had 300 people at her kick off! It was more like 75. "Choose Honesty, Choose Adela."
ReplyDeleteI bet she will win the primary and it's way better for Denise if she does because she will loose to Denise. I didn't know David was her campaign manager? I have seen her twice with Gloria's son. She must have gotten a fat contribution or the playboy must be dating older women now.
ReplyDeleteDenise is praying that she has Adela in the general. Seriously this lady stole from UT. I don't know that she even will even do good. I mean why is she hanging out with Gloria's sixteen year old son who gets a ferrari for his birthday to wreck and be awarded with another shiny toy. Oh and isn't her treasurer a drug lord?
ReplyDeleteDo y'all hink Jessica will win in November
