http://bayareahouston.blogspot.com/2010/05/harris-county-gops-give-mexican-bike.htmlThe Harris County republican party once again continued their "Give a Mexican a Bike" program by handing out cheap bicycles to Hispanic kids at J.R. Harris Elementary School for passing the TAKS test. They also bragged about opening a campaign headquarters in the Hispanic community offering free English classes. Democratic County Chair Gerry Birnberg had the best quote of the article:
“I would never criticize such an effort. And the Republican Party surely needs to show a little compassion toward the Hispanic community. I'm wondering, though, whether they'll be requiring papers and a photo ID when people sign up for those classes.”
