Dan Sanchez, County Commissioner Who Wants to be County Judge |
When a brouhaha developed, not only over naming a satellite county building after the long tenured, but mediocre clerks, De la Garza and Rivera, but adding a non-approved, but exhorbitant $2,500 portrait of the two to be hung in the building, Sanchez saw an opportunity for heroism, if not sainthood. He offered to personally foot the bill for the portrait of the sleazy duo, sparing the taxpayers of the cost of the non-purchase order bill, but also hopefully ingratiating himself with the subjects of the inappropriate portrait. A Dr. Robert Robles fundraiser spared Sanchez from writing a check to cover the cost of the portrait.
Ever the opportunist, Sanchez racked his brain for another covert way to show his devotion to the two clerks. When it was mentioned that both Rivera and De la Garza had worked longer for the county than Tax Assessor Tony Yzaquirre, yet worked for a smaller salary, Sanchez snuck in an addendum to the commissioners court minutes authorizing a $2,000 raise for both clerks. When Sanchez sneaky actions created an uproar, Dan offered to have the money deleted from his own salary, again illustrating his willingness to spend for support for his county judgeship run.
These two incidents alone prove that Dan Sanchez is NOT the person Cameron County needs as county judge. In a county plagued by reciprocating personal favors, nepotism, job after job handed to the relatives of county officials, the LAST person Cameron County needs as county judge is someone openly pandering for support by putting money into the pockets of county officials.
When the time comes, Cameron County must say "NO" to Dan Sanchez for County Judge.
Dan Sanchez is just another Cameron County Dumbokrat who leaves slime everywhere he slithers. Aurora de la Garza, Joe Rivera, Erin Garcia, Ernie Hernandez, Sofia Benavides, the entire BISD Board of Trustees, David Betancourt and others continue to promote themselves using tax dollars despite the fact that Cameron County and Brownsville is swirling down the ethical and moral toilet. These people leave enough slime to paint white lines on all the highways in the state.
ReplyDeleteThen why do you keep voting them in? Oh yeah the LOW INFORMATION VOTERS that's who.
DeleteThey steal their elections, idiota!
Deleteif sanchez wins the county judgeship, god help us all. I hope he is watched closely by the Feds. If so, look for a new round of indictments.
ReplyDeleteThe person who wrote the first coment is none other than Karlos Kaskos. Dumbocrat, really karlos? Weren't you a "dumbocrat" until you changed to republican't out of convinience? When David Betancourt beat your brother-in-law for County Treasurer, how did your brother-in-law get a job right away at the auditor's office? Without the position ever being posted....answer that one Mr. dumocrat. Truth is you ordered that position be given to him. You are no better that the rest of them Karlitos, so stop throwing rocks from behind a computer you coward.
ReplyDeleteThe connection between Dan Sanchez and Judge Able Limas is cause for concern. Dan took trips with Limas to Spurs games (paid for by others) and Las Vegas. Dan's willingness to use taxpayers money to promote himself and his candidacy for County Judge is worthy of invetigation and concern. He is courting some of the most corrupt officials in the county. We must assume that he will be willing to "overlook" existing corruption in order to be elected. Dan Sanchez, as county judge, will mark the return Dumbokratic politics that we saw from Gilberto Hinojosa, Conrado Cantu, Mando Villalobos and will allow corruption to continue from the offices of Aurora de la Garza and the Sheriff.
ReplyDeleteYou left yourself out of the mix Karlitos Kaskos...,convenient..
DeleteThe county and the elected officials are a shame. Slimey, sobs.
ReplyDeleteWhen the time comes, Cameron County must say "NO" to Dan Sanchez for County Judge.
