Recently, liberal Democrat Jessica Farrar made the following statement:

"At their convention, Republicans followed up their purging of Hispanic candidates in March's Primary with an emphatic message of hate and division to the Hispanic community," said State Representative Jessica Farrar, Chair of the House Democratic Caucus. "While the Democratic convention is focusing on the excitement around the Bill White campaign and hearing the concerns of all citizens, Republicans mainly used their convention to identify Texans they view as undesirable and laying out the steps that can be taken to block their path to prosperity."

We take exception to Jessica Farrar's comments, which completely misconstrued the business of the Republican Convention recently held in Dallas, TX. As usual, Farrar's tired rhetoric was meant to confuse and obfuscate Republican advocacy for border security, responsible immigration process, and the rule of law. Furthermore, Republican principles have taught prosperity for ALL, based on personal responsibility, personal work ethic, and personal diligence, not some promised prosperity based on government dependence, which is what the Democrat party promises.

The Democrat party's idea of prosperity is to take the money you earned, tax it, and spend it since they believe they know how to better spend your money than you do.

Republican values are Latino values, as we both believe in the:

Value of hard work

Right of the individual to be rewarded for their work

Sanctity of marriage

The sanctity of life

Jessica Farrar has a reason to lie about Republican values, as she doesn't want her constituents to examine her record. She doesn't want them to know she has received multiple awards from those that profit from abortion. She wants to hide the fact that she supports "Cap and Tax" Bill White and a Democrat party that has failed miserably at creating prosperity under the Obama administration. She wants to run from the Obama, Pelosi, Reid record high unemployment, out of control deficits, lack of job creation in the private sector, and out of control spending that has occurred during the first 18 months of this administration. It's time that the voters in State Rep. District 148 know the truth. Now is the time to get behind Fernando Herrera's campaign to show Jessica the way to the exit door!
