EDINBURG: THE RUINS...AND RECYCLING POLITICIANS...

Here we are again, same ol mayor back in office, no political opponents this time (No Money, Hard times, I guess even politicians are feeling the pinch) no city elections, and yet things are quiet on the home front. Here's my latest GRIPES:

*The RUINS at the NorthEast Corner of Jackson and Trenton?? What gives? How long does it take the city to get things moving with that Supposedly Alamo Draft House. I thought Joe Ochoa and his sidekick Gus Garcia were gonna pave the Edinburg Roads with Gold when they got elected. They made every political promise in the book from curing the sick to providing food for the starving.

*OK Haliburton left town, NOW WHAT? Whats that vacant property gonna be now? And what about the tail end of it by Van Week and the Train Tracks? When is that eye sore leaving?

*Whats with the 2,000 filled potholes on streets such as 12th, monmack, etc. C'mon Iraq's got better streets than that. Some black top, yellow paint and an industrial Iron and Wholla a new road.

*McAllen, Mission, and Even Pharr are getting major Commercial Corporations emerging in their neck of the woods, and I still hear crickets chattering over in our back yard... Whats the deal here, I mean C'MON, I know our commission loves them some First National Bank, but hey what about getting some Best Buy, Dillards, Macy's or the like? NAH JUST GET SOME MORE FNB BUILDINGS ALL OVER THE FREAKIN CITY. I mean that bank has got like a College campus setting coming soon, yet we still dont have some major corporate big wigs. JCPENNY? and Low END CRAP: Ross Tj max, wooo! Low end crap and all the dollar crappy stores you can stomach.

*The only fascinating leadership being displayed in this city, is the awesome growth of the UTPA CAMPUS. Damn, it even got our city hall to borrow some bricks and to make its new location, wow how original.

*And another major GRIPE here, whats with landing our New Edinburg High School right across the street from PSJA? I mean I think the Prison Look is way too old fashion, but hey if barb wire fencing is needed now a days to keep the poor student body in, oh well where's ENHS and JEHS' barb wire fencing. Or do they simply issue the student body ankle bracelets? I dont know Im just thinking out loud here.

*And whats with our old Mayor Ochoa running a "Rocky Balboa theme playing in the background" campaign to promise he was gonna make VIVA EDINBURG the new city motto? or some crap about making Edinburg great, and well he gave out quicker than a birthday candle.

So what does this City Have in store now, SAME OL SHIT JUST A DIFFERENT MAYOR? I mean what are residents really thinking, well I voted this dude out of office and went with the guy I voted out of office 3 years ago, BUT HEY since the world is GOING GREEN NOW and recycling everything from aluminum cans to Politicians, why not re-elect some ol crappy politician we voted out of office last election.....Yeah thats the ANSWER.... LETS RECYLCE OUR POLITICIANS TOO....GO GREEN! GO HOME! GO HAPPY! GET SCREWED ALL OVER AGAIN....YEAH VIVA EDINBURG, where everything is recycable even the The POLITICAL CRAP issued yearly.
