How one conducts oneself, most especially on the day to day matters, shows how one is, how one is perceived and how one sees oneself in the greater scheme. We already know that by his own written policy, Esparza has exempted himself and his freinds from his own DIMS program. In other words, if you get arrested Esparza wants you to go straight to jail without benefit of a judge. If Esparza gets arrested or one of his friends like former Mayor Joe Wardy, (who was caught at the airport with a loaded gun in the security area and Esparza let him go) they get the full benefit of the law and get to go before a judge. Mr. Esparza thinks he and his friends are more important than thee and me. Esparza has actually placed himself above the law by his own illegal written policy. DIMS would be a BIG example of Esparza's arrogance. What would be a smaller one?
On Saturday night, October 20, 2007, at the 110th Gala of the El Paso Bar Association, there was a very long line at the very crowded cash bar. A lawyer who had patiently waited in line himself to get to the front said an assistant District Attorney showed up at the front and asked a lawyer, "Hey, since you are already up here, can you buy a beer for Jaime?" The "Jaime" turned out to be Jaime Esparza.--Even kindergartners know this is line-cutting.
What does this tell us? What self-respecting lawyer would go fetch a beer for his lawyer boss when not in the course of getting one for himself? What lawyer boss is too good to wait in line himself and get his own beer? What lawyer boss would ask his employee to go wait in the long line to get him a beer? What lawyer boss would ask his employee to cut in line to get him a beer? What lawyer boss has no qualms about by-passing other people who are abiding by the rules set down by society and are waiting in line, and pushes himself to the front in order to get what he wants?
Could it be the same lawyer boss who exempts himself and all of his emplyees from DIMS, a system he imposes on the rest of us? Could it be the same lawyer boss who let his friend Joe Wardy go free on a gun charge and then lied about it but prosecutes you and your sons and daughters for the same violation? Could it be the same lawyer boss who takes campaign contributions for the purpose of campaigning and then spends $350.00 of the funds in a foreign country, at one of the fanciest restaurants in Mexico City, the Sheraton Maria Isabela, and calls it a campaign expense? And the list goes on and on...
Jaime Esparza has long conducted himself in matters both big and small as though the social and legal rules did not apply to him. Elect someone who will not conduct herself in this fashion. Remember me, Theresa Caballero, in the Democratic primary March 2008.

As far as JE VIP behavior it is typical, most VIP feel they are important persons of status, I saw JE and the recent Border hearings [btw I do praise is anti local police enforce immigration stand] and he was telling another VIP ES before start....'like I dont know how this works but if I could speak "at front" top, now etc before the others...man iam a busy [important] man....yet I do not expect all VIP to become meek and humble Mother T's or Ghandis, its to be expected really from most....however this does not mean the VIP will not do the right things, for example while JE does have two El Paso's re DIMS...the equal protection[teatment] Clause of the 14th Amendment basicly only covers race and gender NOT status but one can keep selling the two El Paso's line ethicialy but legaly it fails like the DIMS Federal lawsuits, so get back in Fed court with DIMS...re race while JE is by no means a racist neither was JFK for the most part, be he do felt he was a VIP like JE and on his sailboat yacht, he was known to ref people of color as "those poor bastards".....only such as President DE could rise above VIP norms, he would not even say such thing as JFK did and I doubt he even drank, nvertheless cut line and oh how we are just now learning that DE did more for civil rights than given is what new Historians are documenting, some knew he did BUT why now after all these years...well for one reason DE was not is own promoter, as so many are today and the only way to defeat that is for each of us to put up our own personal roadblocks against overly seeking status, fortune and fame, that is the only way not to cut so many lines or climb too many ladders.
