Silvestre Reyes
-
The congressman who represents El Paso, Texas is 
Silvestre Reyes. He seems like a nice guy. I called his office in Washington, D.C. this morning urging him to vote against the $700 Billion bailout for the rich financiers on Wall Street.
-
After the bill was defeated (in the house) it was late enough that I assumed his Washington, D.C. office would be closed, so I called his office in El Paso to see how he voted. He voted for the debacle to pass. It made me want to look into his background a little.
-
Congressman Reyes has a 2 year degree from a community college. His only political experience before being elected to congress was a 2 year stint serving on the local Canutillo school board. Gosh, this sounds very similar to Sarah Palin.
-
But at least Reyes is merely a congressman, not a senator, and certainly not the Vice President of the United States. I guess it is about time to retire this rotund old grandfather figure again (he already retired once from the Border Patrol).

Wouldn't this white haired old man look fine standing next to John McCain?
