the first woman, the first lesbian and the first Hispanic

Oooooh! A three-fer!!. Does she walk with a limp? We could add "first handicapped" to the list if she does.

This article is fairly meaningless without any statistics to support either side. Have crime rates increased or decreased under her tenure? Emergency response time? Morale among deputy sheriffs?

And Valdez — also the first woman, the first lesbian and the first Hispanic to serve as Dallas County sheriff

All those firsts and what gets mentioned in the headlines?

“I’m the target, and what happens when you’re the target? They will find anything and everything. When people are desperate, they will do anything to get back to where they were, and I think desperate measures will come out. We just have to be ready to meet the challenge.”

Sorry, but all incumbants are “the target”. No whining.

“As for Valdez, she said she is unsure whether the fact she’s a lesbian will again be an issue in the race.”

Nah, considering the headline of this article, the fact that she is a lesbian will not even be known.

She wins the EEOC trifecta! If she were also a handicapped midget she would have to be crowned queen of Dallas!

I wonder who took her eyebrows? I wonder if the local police artist pencils in those eyebrows each morning.

Although the crime rate was up in ‘06, it’s higher in the first 6 months of ‘07.

As an aside, I thought it was AUH2O in 64. My first presidential vote went for Barry.

WTF is with her eyebrows ? Shaved off and drawn on ? Reminds me of the lunch counter ladies at my school back in the ‘70s. Still gives me nightmares.

“first woman, the first lesbian and the first Hispanic to serve as Dallas County sheriff “

The perfect victim — she should be able to get away with almost anything. If she turns out to be an illegal alien, the “almost” will disappear.
