      <![CDATA[Since we are on the Hispanic and Latino bandwagon, let's not forget to remember corrupt Joe Berrios and all that he has not done for the community.
    
    A Latino leader?  Please.  He'd rob Peter to pay Paul.
    
    He badmouths half of the Hispanic community leaders.  Maybe he should give Toni some criticism instead of just money.
    
    Vote against everyone Berrios supports!

      <![CDATA[Geez!!!  I found this because I was doing a search on Larry Ligas and had only a brief exposure to this (I moved out of Chicago 3 years ago). What a disgusting sewer pit local politics is. And it just gets dirtier the higher you go. Sounds just like which is the lesser of 2 evils.

      <![CDATA[As the votes were being tallied and it became apparent that the incumbant Rey Colon was going to be the victor over has-been Vilma ColoM I heard in the ditance the voices of the Munchkins of the Land of Oz...They sang loudly and with great fervor "Ding Dong the witch is dead, the wicked withch is dead. Which old witch? Vilma the witch! Ding Dong the witch is dead, the wicked witch is dead!"
    
    And I looked upon Rey Colon at his victory celebration he on ruby red loafers and dancing a jig. 
    
    But as dawn drew nigh, after a night of drinks and dancing, Rey said "I don't need another DUI citation on my record, so I know just what to do..." He looked down at his feet, clicked his heels three times and said "There's no place like home, there's no place like home, there's no place like home..."

      <![CDATA[Blah blah blah!!!    All we want is a safe place to live.  Don't we all want that?   Don't we all want to live in a neighborhood that's somewhat nice????  Who cares about the Mega Mall. . . it's a dump and an eye sore!!  People need to stop getting pissed at the yuppies (WHO PAY TAXES A WORK HARD) just because they want to improve the neighborhood.  Bottom line . . . get rid of the punks and assholes who threaten the hardworking people who actually care about the neighborhood and want to see improvment and development.  If you don't like it then leave and dirty up another neighborhood.

    <author><![CDATA[Former Yates Employee]]></author>
    <description>
      
      <![CDATA[I am tired of people saying that Vilma was a former teacher in our community! I worked at Yates Elementary School for 10 years as a teacher assistant. During that time a very energetic, very Latina teacher joined the staff. This woman was able to galvanize other upwardly mobile Latina teachers to her circle. After a couple of months she announced her candidacy for 35th Ward Alderman. No wonder she was so magnetic, she was using her position as a teacher as a platform to get elected. And it worked! However her claim that she cared about our families and as a teacher at Yates identified with the issues of working families and the poor. What a crock! Most of her time as a teacher her class was taught by substitute teachers! This is the former teacher who now wants to regain her throne. I say don't believe a word she says. She is a con-artist who wants to dupe the poor and working families into believing her pipe dream again.
    
    If you haven't done so yet, vote for Rey Colon for alderman of the 35th Ward. He is a true product of this neighborhood not a product of Dick Mell!

      <![CDATA[Dear Dead Beat . . .
    
    You need to check your sources and learn how to read.  I read the bull-shit lies Vilma printed.  Those documents are the same I filed to assure child support payments when I got a divorce.  Those documents only prove that Rey Colon paid child support.  
    
    Crime is down.  I wish crime could some how - disappear.  But, what do you think are the chances of crime disappearing.  
    
    A suspended license do not make anyone a criminal. The worst it gives you is a bad driving record.
    
    If you would read and inform yourself properly you will learn that anyone can get arrested on a DUI and have only drank one glass of wine.
    
    I do not support ignorance, and ghetto politicians, that only attract ghetto supporters that participate in low class campaigns.
    
    I will vote for the most dignified candidate, that I know will not embarrass the community I live in.  My vote will go to Rey Colon.

      <![CDATA[I have to say that I'm outright stunned to hear that Rey Colon has come 
    forward to ACKNOWLEDGE that the anonymous mailing regarding his 
    allegations are in deed factual. I have a three letter word for that 
    and it's W-O-W. 
    
    I cannot comprehend why he lied to the constituents of the 35th ward. 
    A honorable person would admit to the wrong doings. However, he 
    continually went on record to say the allegations were not true. In my 
    eyes, Rey Colon is a FAKE! He will never get my vote and I encourage 
    others to also not give him your vote. 
    
    As citizens its our responsibility to vote on April 17th, therefore, 
    get out there and vote.

      <![CDATA[Can you get any meaner than this?
    
    
    
    >>>Why I won't vote for Vilma? I sat in her office 8 years ago to get a permit to
    put a small dormer on our 1.5 story house. Well within code, we had drawings,
    already met with the city, but she had an arrangement that ANY permit had to go
    thru her (not a zoning change - just a permit). She asked us (while I was VERY
    pregnant) what we needed more than 2 bedrooms for. Then she asked us "why
    should I do this for you? What is in it for me?" We knew what she wanted, we
    didn't pay. She then held our permit for 11 MONTHS. During the process, the
    city permit department could do nothing for us until they had her approval. Her
    approval???? Why????? When we would go to ward nights to meet with her (she
    would never see us at any other time) she never "got around to us." Ald.
    Doherty of the 41st ward finally pulled our permit when my husband went to see
    him (he grew up in that ward).
    
    Then came 2901-03 N. Richmond, upzoned from a Z3 to a Z5 without ANY community
    input (she made my neighbors send her certified mail letters of approval and
    also call her). You could follow the trail of donations to see how that upzone
    happened. Rey eventually got the project downzoned to a Z4 when he took office
    and did not approve the demolition of a graystone.
    
    Changed now?? I don't think so. She almost ruined us. We had to pay rent and
    mortgage until we could do the work to move in.
    
    And remember booting of cars??? My cousin's running car was booted when she took
    my uncle to dialysis on Milwaukee Ave. When she went to see Vilma, she said,
    "you shouldn't have parked there...."

      <![CDATA[Why The business community is leaving? Do not blame the locals.
    The man just do not know anything about business. But he loves to ask for$$$$$
    
    In the ETHICS section is the question: 
    Who are your top 5 contributors and how much has each contributed to 
    your campaign? 
    
    Rey Colon's answer: 
    1. Armitage Produce $2,500 
    2. Zina Murray $2,500 
    3. Debit Connections $2,500 
    4. Balcor $2,500 
    5. Star Auto Group $2,500 
    
    Well Rey, that's a flat out lie. 
    Developer Mark Fishman and his directly controlled property LLC's are 
    Rey Colon's biggest recent contributions. On Nov 4, 2006, Colon 
    received almost $7,000 in that single day from Mr. Fishman and his 
    LLC's. Indisputable fact on IL Board of Election website D-2's.

    The demand for heels isn't enough to keep that store afloat, just like there wasn't enough demand (VOTES) to keep Vilma in office in '03 and she was FIRED. There was even less demand for her in the Feb. '07 election which is why she will be kicked back to the curb in the run-off. 
    
    I guess it is a good thing for Vilma that she doesn't have to go thru an election to get her Cook County job. Ahhh the patronage system.
