Joe Moody - Making Bank...Capitulo Dos

Joe Moody reporting to Rick Francis got me thinking about my former employer, Norma Chavez.

Back when she served the good people of El Paso, she was ostracized by her own Delegation and Party.  Sometimes it was partly on her, but the other times? It was because she was in the pocket of Republicans!

Hell, even Moody, would bust Chavez's balls for playing ball with Republicans. 

But here you have Joe Moody working for the Republicans. 

Moody is going to get a check from them!

And he will have to do what they say.

Joe Moody could be on the House Floor, but if Rick Francis calls he has to pick up.  

Rick Francis may just call Moody to phuck with him and  just ask, "What's my ass taste like?" 

It is not just Francis. 

Paul Foster and Woody Hunt are on the Bank's Board of Directors. 

They too are in a sense Moody's boss.  

I just hope Moody takes a moment to self-reflect on all of this and realize how naive he was when he would give Norma flak about trying to work with Republicans.

Maybe he should call her and apologize.

BUT WAIT...there's more. 

You have to wonder now if the Delegation ostracizes Moody now. 

Moody's boss, Rick Francis, is no friend of Mary Gonzalez. 

Francis, if I am not mistaken, has donated to all of Mary's challengers. 

Unless Moody brings the Francis and Gonzalez together to break bread.

"Oh hey, Mary.  So you need a job too? But you have a PhD in intersectionality of social work? We got an opening for part-time teller for you when the Legislature is not in session.  Now, let's be friends. Oh, and Mary...what's my ass taste like?"

Art Fierro.  Yeah, nobody cares.

Wanna-be Senator Blanco, when not measuring the drapes in the Governor's Mansion or getting his eyebrows waxed*, promotes and defends the interests of the Party.  So in his eyes, Moody is a vendido. 

Please do not feel sorry for the guy. 

He is making six-figures at a bank having no experience in banking.

Yes, he is a lawyer, but he ain't exactly the guy you want to talk to about Sarbanes-Oxley.  

Hell, he could end up making more after other larger banks in Texas take notice.  

So please bust his balls. 

That herpe sore on his eye is gonna leave and you won't be able to make fun of him for that anymore. 

 

 

 

*I get my eyebrows waxed too.  So there.

Max, have you ever heard of hypocrisy in politics? Moody made the right move in getting in with the right people here in town. I do find it interesting how the Democratic Party will be able to explain away his employer when he stands up and says we need to stand up and fight. Either way, the party is bullshit.

I am sure this move to hire him as the senior counsel was in exchange for him staying in the legislature and not running for DA. He has a family and they need more income than $8000 a year and whatever money a law practice brought in. Repubs here know they will never get into the legislature except for Margo that one time, so play nice and make friends.

Look around this town. Moody is the cream of the crop. Our county judge is a freaking moron. Our taxes keep going up and this guy is excited that after 150 years he was finally named honored ex at Jefferson High. Pathetic.
