Note parallels to Obama:

Single mother - activist, influential radical mentors, “best” education, affable.....

“Knowledge will degenerate into a riot of subjective visions and Justice will be replaced by Pity as the cardinal human virtue, and all fear of retribution will vanish and The New Aristocracy will consist exclusively of hermits, bums and permanent invalids. The Rough Diamond, the Consumptive Whore, the bandit who is good to his mother, the epileptic girl who has a way with animals will be the heroes and heroines of the New Age, when the general, the statesman, and the philosopher have become the butt of every farce and satire.” From W. H. Auden’s “For the Time Being,” a prophetic poem from a half century-ago (1944).

Who knows, when people in TX decide they have enough Bushes, Perrys, Cornyns, etc, they may well embrace a Castro or two.

The story starts off with a lie. Having lived in San Antonio and owned dogs, there aren’t enough ticks to make it anyone’s job. I pretty much stopped reading the BS right there.

With the rise of Marco Rubio, it is no surprise that the dems are promoting the “Castro Brothers” as a response. Its no coincidence that they are where they are now.

The brothers are so proud of their heritage that they don’t speak Spanish

the daughter of an orphaned Mexican immigrant who as a girl picked ticks from white families' cocker spaniels.

LOL! Ok, I'm not going any farther than this. What, a pant load! What did she stand on a street corner with a sign that read "Will pull ticks off white families' cocker spaniels for food"?

I do believe the Left is desperately trying to morph radical, mama Rosie [I hate the Alamo] Castro into a Chicano version of Rosa Parks.

One thing for certain is that...

The mother and sons, will continue the characterization of their constituencies as victims, with the likelihood that, most of the people they are purportedly hoping to help, will remain in poverty or become even poorer, and many in the middle-class who fall under their grip, will also suffer and become part of the victim constituency.

The problem with many leaders who grow out of the “victimized” class, is that, they can’t seem to understand that, most of the victimization was caused by those who need those victims to continue voting for them. Thus, mother and sons will continue creating victims, and the vicious cycle will repeat endlessly.
