Councilman Jose Huizar: "Rudy Martinez doesn't speak Spanish."
"Parque Esqueleto" is the bloggin prophet! From sometime back.
Or maybe in the words of "Parque Esqueleto", this is all part of the plan to ward off the challenge of Rudy Martinez?
Very typical. Common SG&A tactics. As they did in the 43rd race they have learned to gin up "progressive" bloggers to fight opponents SG&A can't beat on the merits by tossing around the racist and homophobe cards. Trujillo and SG&A will be working to save the quite troubled Jose Huizar; they are scared to death of opponent Rudy Martinez. They can't call Martinez, a Mexican, anti-Latino. So perhaps he hates "teh gheys." Maybe, just maybe, Trujillo will exercise the nuclear option and call Martinez a pocho. - Some months later, with Trujillo exile to the bloggin wilderness, leave it to Councilman Huizar to open his "political nuclear suitcase" and launch the first "pocho strike" of the campaign.
More after the bloggin leap..........
Utilizing that $40,000+ Toyota Highlander Hybrid owned by the City of Los Angeles, Councilman Huizar paraded Los Angeles Times Op-Ed Scribe Jim Newton through the finer parts of CD 14. As Huizzy is prone to do, he takes credit and laments why constituents won't given him the proper due for all his arduous work. Been there, blog that.
Can Councilman Huizar speak Nahuatl?
But as the credit taking quickly ended, the "lamenting one" (Southwest Museum lament moment almost killed them both), morphed into the "recriminating one", attacking his former friend Rudy Martinez as a "pocho", inpuning his character and finally calling the person who help re-finance his Boyle Heights home as "inept".
Thus, as the campaign enters its last two weeks, the pocho card has been shown.
Your thoughts..............

last time i checked these elections are taking place in the great USA and we all speak english here.
Is there anything happening anywhere else in the city OTHER THAN IN CD14?
I used to enjoy these updates, but they're now coming 2, 3 or 4 per day, and it's obnoxious.
One of the guys running against Cardenas showed up at the council meeting today for public comment from Van Nuys remote location.
Garcetti blows his name, in the first place. But then, Jamie doesn't even say who he is or announce his name or mention he's running for council.
Then, his issue was that he couldn't bring his balloons to the podium and they had to stay in the first row of chairs.
The other issue was that there wasn't a celebration for the 100 year anniversary of Van Nuys.
I hope Cardenas loses, but this was more like student council.
Complaints about balloons and parades. Gotcha.

As much as I know the point you are making...the market realities are such that we do not all speak English here. And although that creates a separate set of challenges, in CD 14, that is kind of a bad thing...not to speak Spanish. It will be an immediate "no" vote for many.
Again, not saying if this is right or wrong, but it certainly is a factor in CD 14.
This isn't an immigration reform vote, it's an election. And all that counts is what matters.
Red Spot:
What the hell is this post about????
What is "SG&A" ?
What is the "43rd race" ?
What is a "pocho" ?
What / who is "Parke Escalante" ?
"And, without prompting, he raised the controversy over the Southwest Museum, a sore point in the district. Huizar said he attempted to get a guarantee from the Autry National Center of the American West to reopen the museum building (which the Autry owns), only to have the project fall apart. It was, I suggested, a "lose-lose," a phrase that unnerved Huizar so much that he missed the green light turning red and wound up stranded in the intersection."
This is fricken hilarious. The image of Jose stranded in the middle of an intersection missing a green light so symbolizes how his campaign is stranded at the moment.
How funny.
Racial politics pure and simple.
But since Rudy's team has won most the media wars in this election they will probably make his eat his words.
What an idiot, all Huizar does is cry and then put his foot in his mouth.
I sure as hell don't know who you're quoting HERE, but it sure isn't "Parque Esqueleto"
Dude, you need a bloggin' break!
There hasn't been a non-Spanish speaking councilmember in the 14th for about 40 years.
What more do you need to know?
Even Art Snyder knew he needed to learn to speak Spanish after his district was gerrymandered.
Call that whatever helps you sleep nights, but it's a fact of life. here.
No habla?
Adios, Rico Rudolfo!
Gracias por jugar el juego.
Not for the first time here, someone is attempting to rewrite history.
The "pocho" assault was the original stock and trade of Pacheco & company, from 2002 - used against Tony V., as reported by the TIMES back then.
http://articles.latimes.com/2002/nov/17/local/me-pocho17
"During Villaraigosa's successful run for City Council in 2002, weak Spanish was a brief issue. A mailer from a supporter of incumbent Councilman Nick Pacheco derided Villaraigosa's language as "pocho," a pejorative describing someone who has drifted from his Mexican roots and language."
The attack mailer also accused Villaraigosa of siding too much with his "gringo" advisors, like Parke Skelton.
Hmmm, who likes to bash Skelton every other day, here?
Dumb Ass Huizar should know that the Latinos in CD14 who are LEGAL and Mexican Americans SPEAK ENGLISH. This is a big reason why they are voting AGAINST HUizar. The community looks like a 3rd world country more like Mexico then Los Angeles. Since Huizar has been in office there is more graffitti, more illegal vending, more trash and filth all over the streets, pot holes, Boyle Heights alone has become 68% illegals. This is why Huizar feels more at home. Jim Newton should investigate how Huizar as president of LAUSD was allowed to work 2 days a week as a City Attorney while still collecting a paycheck at LAUSD. No wonder LAUSD is in such a mess and the schools in his area are some of the worse in the nation
And those that can speak English, including Huizar, so not speak well. Just a point that LAUSD, the community college system and the members of the government of Califoria are failures because WE dont understand Spanish; their first language.
So what if Rudy Martinez doesn't know spanish, "he fine" thats all he needs to know.
Its sad we have the Mexican Mafia thugs running our city. At the top you have the gangster in a suit the Failure of a Mayor then all the rest like Alarcon, Huizar, Reyes, Cardenas all supporters of anything to help illegals. NBA stars who came into LA were telling people how the city has changed with all the illegals coming here. The blacks don't have a chance in hell because no one cares about them anymore. The Mayor is having a "secret meeting" tonight at Valley Plaza Park Recreation Center which is at the corner of Laurel Canyon and Vanowen.His staff is only calling those that kiss his ass. They're hoping no one finds out and goes to slam him on issues, budget, CRA. Anyone available in that area should show up.
Unable to come up with anything new to bash Huizar with, Scott Johnson is now making up things to put in the mouth of former Mayor Sam's mini-icon Parque Esqueleto.
That borders on fraud.
No, wait, that IS fraud.
Pfaaaaaah!

Hmmm.
Maybe you better sit this one out.
RUDY MARTINEZ SPEAKS THE LANGUAGE OF REPRESENTATION
LOS ANGELES, CA (February 7, 2011) – Council District 14 is amongst the most culturally and economically diverse districts in the City of Los Angeles. In a recent L.A. Times article, Councilman Huizar called Mr. Martinez “inept” and said he couldn’t represent the residents of Council District 14 because he only speaks English.
“When I walk and speak to voters every single day, the only language voters care about is the language of representation, of creating jobs, of engaging the community, of revitalizing our business corridors, of expanding youth programs and providing quality city services to all neighborhoods,” said Rudy Martinez.
Council District 14 is fortunate to be represented by many outstanding representatives Governor Jerry Brown, Senator Barbara Boxer, Senator Diane Feinstein, Congressman Adam Schiff, who don’t speak Spanish either. That fact has clearly not disqualified any of these individuals from providing outstanding representation to Council District 14 residents.
“Unfortunately, Mr. Huizar’s bilingual skills have only meant that he has failed our communities in multiple languages,” said Eric Hacopian.
Funny thing there's Reed Spit.
None of the actual polling - including Rudy's seems to agree with Hacopian's spin.
Terrible shame; very black mark on his campaign record.
(Did he HAPPEN to release that message in SPANISH, too???)
Hooooooo, ha!
...represented by many outstanding representatives Governor Jerry Brown, Senator Barbara Boxer, Senator Diane Feinstein, Congressman Adam Schiff, who don’t speak Spanish either.
HA! What a pants-load of CRAP!
He couldn't even GET his SPIN any closer to home that U.S. CONGRESS (Schiff, basically in in PASADENA? - with a small overlap in L.A.) -- and even THEN he had to leave off BECERRA!
And how many elected reps over the 14th's area DO speak SPANISH?
County, state Assembly, State Senate??
How about ALLLLLLLLLLLLL of them! TOO MANY TO NAME, ALL fluent in Spanish.
(But then, NO ONE expects a GLENDALE REPUBLICAN to speak the first language of nearly one-third of his actual constituents).
All Huizar did was state THE OBVIOUS. Martinez doesn't SPEAK SPANISH.
He also doesn't speak "representation" or "investigation" or "code of ethics" (as in LAPD), or "honesty" (with City inspectors), or "ecological" (as in ripping out street trees".
What'd Rudy's FIRST language... MONEY, money, money! Getting rich at other's expense.
No one has run CD14 in FORTY YEARS that didn't speak Spanish fluently, and when Rudy's buddy NICK PACHECO was being challenged by Tony V., he and his campaign staff sat in the back of the room making fun of Antonio for mangling a few Spanish words every few sentences - calling him POCHO.
Who do YOU think is more "pocho" - Tony V. or Rudy M.?
Ask Nick - the hypocrite - Pacheco. He started the whole "POCHO" attacks with the sleaze mailers he had his college buddy run through CD14.
Whassamatter, Red Spot, is Rudy too "huevon" to learn Spanish?
Will he have to hire a TRANSLATOR to follow him everywhere, at our expense - like Huizar supposedly hired a "chauffeur".
Or will he simply "listen" to tens of thousands of his constituents (and pretend he understands them)?
GEEZ, even Art Snyder learned to speak Spanish when CD14 was re-districted to include the moer heavily Latino sections of town.
What's Rudy's excuse - he's 40+ years old, and he KNOWS that a large minority of the people he wants to represent speak Spanish only.
For Snyder, at least, it was something of a surprise. Rudy can't claim that.
(Maybe that's why the Boyle Heights NC didn't want Rudy coming to a campaign forum there - how embarrassing that a Latino would hope to represent that community and NEVER even try to learn the mother tongue).
What's more expensive - a full-time translator to follow a councilmember around, or a "chauffeur".
Yeah, I'm betting a Spanish translator costs 2-3 times as much, Rudy.
Unlike the Pacheco-promoting nasty sleaze ads from 2002, however, Huizar never used the term "pocho" did he.
That was Red Spot's ingestion into the mix.
That's a pretty weak wind-up, Hacopian's got.
"Adam Schiff???"
Versus what:
De Leon?
Molina?
Cedillo?
Becerra?
What a joke.
Maybe this is why Rudy M. still has "Cypress Park" (CD1) and the "Autry Museum" (CD4) as being in CD14.
Not a clue!
SEXY FANTASY TO OPEN IN EL SERENO 2 blocks fron JOSE HUIZAR CAMPAIGN OFFICE. 5401 Huntington Drive North. Sexy erotic male and female lingeri.

WHAT A DOUBLE STANDARD. YOUR OFFICE IS WELL AWARE OF COMPLAINTS, BUT THEY FELL ON DEAF EARS.
RUDY DOESN'T SPEAK SPANISH! OH MY GOD! A LOT OF LATINS DON'T.
Huizar only SPEAKS Spanish because his mother has not learned English in the 40+ years she's lived in the USA. 'El lloron de Huizar' is crying again, what a cry baby. Huizar can not have a conversation in either language with his constituants. He runs away, maybe next time I will address him in Spanish. Huizar is a racist.......... A dioz compadre
Huizar, the "manana" (tomorrow)
councilman, he has not accomplish to get very much done. However now he promisses to do what he has ignored for five year. But his priority is a new stadium to go with his little trolley that will travel eight blocks, and we are paying billions for all his toy projects??? Per Huiaz: El tren biene! nos llevara de la tersera a la Olympic, que bonito mama...
What is everyone talking about, Huizar does not speak to his constituants in Spanish or English, the fact is that he never has community meetings in
Boyle Heights, And to those that in Boyle Height people only speak Spanish, they do not live here. They work for Huizar. The meetings held in Boyle Heights do not normally have trnslation, ask the CRA,BHNC, BHNO, BHRH AND CPAB.
