“So much attention is paid to the aggressive sins, such as violence and cruelty and greed with all their tragic effects, that too little attention is paid to the passive sins, such as apathy and laziness, which in the long run can have a more devastating effect.” - Eleanor Roosevelt
Oh yes, it has been very quiet at True Mexican these days. We have been licking a few wounds, taking some well deserved R and R and been plotting new and interesting strategies to keep you informed, stimulated and politically active.
Where in the heck was everybody during the primary election? I smell apathy in the air! Come on gente. This is not the way to use our power to get things done. Stay tuned for more on this subject.
Okay, everyone has been commenting on the HORRIBLE Jan Brewer performance. I can’t help but make a few comments. Everyone makes mistakes. Everyone has holes in their cheese but ……if Jan were Mexican American she would be reported to be inarticulate and illiterate. I love that Carlos Mencia said, “The Mexicans who write her speeches were deported”
Either she forgot her glasses or she should have written notes on her hand like her mentor Sarah Palin.
Anyone watching this debacle would have to say that she appeared totally incapable of governing anything let alone the state of AZ. It is obvious that she is the empty poster child of people who are hoping to create fear and hatred of Mexicans and the Mexican American Community.
The most concerning thing is that her Campaign Chairmen and PR person are lobbyists for the largest private prison company in the US. They hold the contract with ICE to lock up illegal immigrants picked up in AZ. Governor Brewer has a lot of interest in SB 1070 since it could send 1,000’s of people to her friend’s jails and makes her friends millions of dollars. I smell dirty money and this really stinks. I hope the Feds are paying attention to this.
Please pass Jan’s You Tube piece on to as many people as you can. A picture is worth a thousand words. Send it especially to Independents and thinking Republicans. She didn’t win the debate but maybe she will win more hits than the video of the woman singing on the toilet.
Terry you looked great. Unfortunately there will be no more debates but lots of fighting from the shadows. Cuidado hombre
