Comments (1) Yes, that time of the year again, when Loretta Sanchez sends out a Holiday card which will get more attention than any legislation she may ever sponsor.
So here it is, just in time for falling gas prices
And guess what? the cards only cost about 150 grand.
(you didn´t expect me to do all that research now did you?)
So I assume you want to see those from other years…

No joke here. It’s so very sad. Loretta and Linda Sánchez’s brother Henry Sánchez and his girlfriend Penny Avila are believed to be the dead found after a boat sank in Southern California…

What happened that clear, moonless night in the Catalina Channel is still very much a mystery.
A Santa Ana couple were going for a midnight cruise to Santa Catalina Island, and a huge 128-foot barge was lumbering toward the Port of Los Angeles.

As you may have noticed along with all the Hispanic Nevada sleeping giant hoopla, we got a flurry of Hispanic endorsements, some from people we know, like our very own chief intelligence Hispanic, Silvestre Reyes (who took a Woman’s and Black man´s job) and some from Hispanics not even we have heard of.
But our favorite endorsement news comes from our favorite sisters in Congress, and ex-coconut caucus members, Loretta Sanchez and Linda Sánchez, who on the same day endorsed rival candidates.

As they say…. Hell hath No fury like a Hispanic congresswoman scorned….
Seems like there will be no reconciliation soon between the Sánchez sisters and de facto leader of the Hispanic Caucus, Joe Baca, because now they are messing with la familia…
So here is the latest: Loretta Sánchez donated a whole 100 dollars (less than she spends on one pair of shoes) to one of the political rivals of Joe Baca´s son Jeremy, a convicted drunk driver also arrested for beating “altercating” his girlfriend.
Jeremy Baca was running for a council seat in San Bernardino and lost to Vincent Yzaguirre, supported by Sánchez.
Paula Negrete, Sanchez’s communications director, said the decision to support Yzaguirre had nothing to do with the spat between the two members of Congress.
“There is no connection,” Negrete said. “She was contacted by (Yzaguirre’s) campaign. She spoke to him on the phone. His priorities were in line with what she believes in. That’s why she decided to support him.”
But even MORE interesting than a little interfamilia squabble that nobody cares about, except for bloggers like us, is the “reappearance” of The Politico and their “coverage” of the Hispanic Caucus.
Baca Vs. Sanchez: Round 293
By Josephine Hearn
The San Bernardino city council will not have Jeremy Baca, youngest son of Rep. Joe Baca (D-Calif.) as one of its members, thanks in part to Rep. Loretta Sanchez (D-Calif.).
Sanchez donated to the younger Baca’s opponent and the ultimate victor in the primary race, Vincent Yzaguirre. Sanchez’s spokeswoman denied that the donation had anything to do with defeating young Baca, or with the bad blood between Sanchez and the elder Baca. Yzaguirre also got support from Republicans seeking to undercut the elder Baca’s power in the area.

It is nice to see that our very own Josefina has learned how to attribute sources (at least to anglo papers) but I must comment about the very cliché headline, and failed attempt at copying this blog, of course without retribution attribution…
and I can`t help but add, that I know many in the Hispanic Media who would to have a full time salary to write lame 3 parragraph monolingual stories copied from a local newspaper…
The dozens of readers of this blog probably think Alberto GONEzales is the only Hispanic around, because of our intense coverage of him lately, and that is pretty bad considering he is not even a “true” member of the Coconut Caucus, but hey we need to get all the mileage we can out of him before he resigns for personal reasons and to spend more time torturing his family…
So what have the rest of our fearless leaders been up to lately? Here is a glimpse:
Loretta Sánchez takes on Nancy Pelosi… and wins…
Luis Gutiérrez represents Illinois, but he is everywhere elseSince Richardson López is sooooo well known by voters… he no longer needs to be on TV
Meanwhile…. Ciro RodrÃguez and Henry Cuellar attend a funeral
Hilda SolÃs gets a Post Office named
Meanwhile, super busy Senator, Mel MartÃnez, now also in a campaign to promote gay marriage
Diaz Balart, the only Latino not driving a Honda... (or at least pretending to support Ford)
Despite representing New York, José Serrano still thinks he was elected in Vieques or something…
When he is not busy promoting Bush´s immigration plan, Carlos Gutiérrez is waiting for Castro to die…
Grace Napolitano does some complicated local water hearing thing for political reasons
