Carlos Canas writes a support letter for Joe D. Gonzalez right before the election and wala!! He is now on the EDC Board! What a disappointment! Who would have thought! I thought you were smartter than that Carlos!!!!!
So these are the Mayors buddies? Lorenzo Sanchez? Are you kidding me??? WHAT A JOKE!!!!
Rrrrrrrrratas!
OMG! Lorenzo Sanchez on the EDC Board?! I don’t care what type of business education this man has…San Benito is in for a RUDE awakening! HA! And look at JD Penny, all smiles! San Benito wasn’t good enough for him, so he moved his business to HARLINGEN, but he wants to lead San Benito?! HA! This new commission has already shown San Benito what they really care about…petty issues such as a PLAQUE and using tax payer money to build 2 EXPENSIVE ‘welcome to san benito’ signs! Let’s see what else they have up their sleeves. Changing street names to reflect the mayor’s name maybe? HA!
Chuck wondered what Charles would get in the john for a penney.
