Auntie Charo's Soapbox

Okay, so Larry Palomo Perez is a nice guy, he's young, he's cute and he's got a cool head...he had to have a cool head in order to work with the hot heads at GTA during the negotiations for the sale of that agency....and maybe his ability to get along with others is a good trait that might be good to have as leader of DPW....not sure of his qualifications since all the 'lovers' didn't bother to ask any questions other than Palacios who had all his questions lined up and seemed to confuse Mr. LPP...who answered that he was too new on the job to have formed an opinion on busing private school children and what his thoughts were on the possibility of privatizing the school busing system. I would think that he would have some idea about the questions unless he had his head under some big rock because the questions have come up many times on talk radio over the years and he's entitled to a personal opinion. His excuses made him seem weak and wimpy and the republicrats kept trying to cover up for him and finally Palacios got tired of the spin and stopped asking the questions. I think it was another demolitioncrat Leon Guerrero that agreed that he was a nice guy and that perhaps he would do a good job but noted that he had no experience with grant writing, etc........and it's important to note that we're all in a WIN WIN WIN hurry to SPEND SPEND SPEND fix fix fix the roads because someone at DPW didn't know how to execute(another word for spend) federal grant dollars....
Mr. LPP made it sound as if the Governor wanted to fix the roads so that this island could Win Win Win.......infact, we need to spend federal dollars before we lose it!(At least that's what the media reports!)My only question to Mr. LPP is if DPW's paying overtime for the garbage pick-ups during early morning hours....or...if the employee's day begins at the hour they begin work such as: 3:am to 1:pm for example.
If I were a senator, of either color, I'd confirm Mr. LPP, he's a hard worker and he's honest....the governor's lucky to have him on his team! The love-in that the republicrats demonstrated cheapened the man...Perez can stand on his own merit.
