Tom Cruise is only 5'7", so this makes Villasinvergüenza even shrimpier... and you know what they say about some short men... ...and yeah, I focused on the silliest thing in order to go with the flow of some of your visitor's comments. As for this knucklehead ending up as the governor of this state we should all remember who the governor is now. Obviously, ANYONE can be elected governor. Yikes!

That’s just you and the lies you like to twist from someone’s comments. I have never written about Loretta Sanchez’s promiscuous behavior. I have seen her inebriated several times, making loud stupid comments, acting inappropriate for a public figure. I am more appalled with her public theft. But this is what you do. It’s all here in this database. You twist comments and rewrite them to the point they become lies. This is what makes you so shameless. And for someone who touts higher education as a means of advancement, it seems to not have helped you in the least. No one said Joe Baca was responsible for the housing crisis.

No, I didn't. I said that Joe Baca was not responsible for the housing crisis, as you and others here were claiming. As for criticism of Latino politicians being gossip, much of it is. Rarely can anybody come up with a specific reason why they don't like someone that has to do with public policy. It's usually unsubstantiated rumors, as in the case of Loretta Sanchez and her supposed affair. Or Linda Sanchez's baby, or vague accusations of "corruption" against politicians who have never been accused of or charged with any wrong doing.

"The first Latino Mayor of Los Angeles" (well, the first... in 150 years) became our headline. Yes, he is well dressed; yes, he loves the cameras and being in the center. And yes, he is enamored with his job. ¿Y que? Is life in Los Angeles better after four years of AV? Do you believe in his beliefs and projects and agenda? (I'd say he didn't deliver yet complete results, but set a trend of change and grand projects) Remember also that the 987 million dollar deficit of the city comes from the national economic crisis and the debacle over the budget in Sacramento. Que no?

And Villaraigosa continues to preside over the most inept public school district in the United States. All that behavior is understandable because this job far exceeds his intelligence quota.
