2/16/07   DISD RESIDENCY
 

The most obvious part about Celso Martinez's residency brouhaha that makes his refusal to live within DISD boundaries so sad and tragic is that he's supposed to be the spokesperson for the Dallas Independent School District.

 

"Yes, DISD is fine, the media's out of control, no need to worry, don't pay attention to that man behind the curtain, he's racist...", while knowing the truth is that the district he represents is not good enough for his own kid?? 

 

I am less interested about his desire to live in exurbia and more concerned about the total and complete (proverbial) middle-finger that he is giving to all of the parents of the kids currently enrolled in DISD.

Need I point out the obvious??  The DISD student population is upwards 70% Hispanic. 

Sharon, you're too kind in stating that he doesn't want to "live among DISD taxpayers".

Say what it is:  Celso Martinez thinks DISD is not good enough or his own family, and he is better than his own people. 

Oh, @@@@!  Now, I'm gonna get it for saying that.

Ward politics is the Devil's key to the soul of the city council.  It is how some council members got themselves in trouble in the past.  It is the bait that will get others in trouble in the future. 4/6/8
