But Bobby La Loca is going to put Mike Hernandez in jail!!! LoL
So now we know you're laboring for a Republican, Montoya. Makes you a Stupid Mexican.
This is great news. With this prestigious appointment, Mke Hernandez can help Brownsville by maybe bringing A&M to the mix somehow. Bobby the blimp will cry a river and write all sorts of crap.....take care of your polyps, blimp! And stop falling down, panochon!
This is great for south Texas!
Say what you want but Mr Hernandez is not afraid to advocate for south Texas and put his own money in to the community.
Congrats!
too much venom in brownsville, Mike is a good guy, i went to school with him, but brownsville is pure caca, will never be a McAllen because of its own people- to much envidia, everybody wants the whole pie or the whole enchilidada.
I will serve an injunction to stop this madness, cried Booby WC, just watch me.
