SOME OF THE QUOTES FROM THE FRESNO BEE READERS..HILARIOUS!!

Even those glasses were designed with matching the arch in his hair perfectly. The guy is one in a million of scumbags. A real tour de force.

~~~
Did anyone notice that Victor Lopez written in reverse spells "SH*T PILE"?

~~~
Holy cow that was good. It was right before our eyes all along, any of us couldve done that. Good job mathews.

~~~
This guy should be in jail, not on a counsel!

~~~

It's sad that Victor can't just retire but I suspect many people want him to continue his "spoils system" of government!

~~~

Alright! The samurai dude is back, gonna cut my sandwiches in half with a sword. Look at that hair.....I dont know if hes cut my sandwich with a sword or spit out blood, wag his tongue at me and sing Rock N Roll All Night.

~~~

The skate park was put in with donations from comedian and actor Paul Rodriguez and his son Paul Jr whom is a pro champion skater. Paul Sr also owns orchards in the Orange Cove area so it was of interest to him to do something for that community. As for Victor; his crap still stinks and the people need to realize he covered good deeds with many bad ones. He only fattened his own pockets while in office and gave the community a turkey at Thanksgiving to make everything look ok on the surface.

~~~

Sounds like your typical "run of the mill" politician. Nothing new here. There are thousands of these guys on government payrolls across the country. What's so special about Mr. Lopez..

~~~
Did you notice how Rodriguez has run from Victor now that the truth has come out?

~~~
As I recall, the taxpayers paid for most everything in Orange Cove including the skate park. Paul Rodriguez and family might have contributed some money toward a project or two, but the majority of funds came from you and me in the form of federal, state, and local grants.
Victor P... how about furnishing the Bee with your income tax returns for the last 6 years?

~~~

The peole of OC were on the hook for the skate park affer the State uncovered the massive fraud being perpetrated by VL Sr. and the grants were pulled.

~~~

You mean besides steal them blind? Get paid by 3 employers, none of whom he really worked for? Twist the arms of every City Manager and Police chief to keep his family out of jail? Oh yeah, I guess thats what you meant.

~~~

Yes, I agree . Orange Cove was a dump, poor and crime ridden, before he was ever elected, and in the 20+ years he has been around city politics , it's still a dump and poor. And crime ridden.

~~~

The city council should pass a bill authorizing the tarring and feathering of Victor Lopez.

~~~

I see crooked old Victor goes to the same barber as Kim Jung Il.

~~~

LOL! Birds of a feather...

~~~

Another crooked politician who was voted out of office in a fair election and now he wants back into power. Let's hope Orange Cove remembers his past excesses and votes to leave him out of office again.

~~~

So Vl Sr. thinks the council is spending money foolishly? Kind of like paying nearly $800,000 for a skate park, losing the grant that was going to pay for it through fraud and mismanagement, paying your drug addicted unqualified criminal son VL Jr. to be the project manager, and then hiring him to be the chief of security?

If the City Of Orange Cove lets VL Sr. back in they deserve what they get.

~~~

Little dictators exist in the USA just like in Latin America. Hopfully the people of Orange Cove will not let this guy back into their lives.
~~~

He's B A C K!

Don't you wish. Over the last 20+ years, when I would tell people from Fresno, Clovis, Porterville, Visalia, etc., that I'm from Orange Cove, the name Victor Lopez and the words corrupt, drugs, fraud, thug, mobster, third world dictator or thief would be included in the same sentence to describe Victor Lopez. Then they would say how stupid people were in Orange Cove to not stand up to this guy.

I would tell them that Orange Cove people are not stupid, rather, they are afraid. Lopez scares the hell out of most of the people, so they will do what he wants (generally involving a ballot) just to make him go away.

I have no doubt that the comments in the Bee came mainly from people out of town who are familiar with the pompadour.

Orange Cove became a laughing stock when you crack head Hill cabalers took over the majority in orange cove in 2008. Anything before would be nothing but good comments and congrats on how far the city has came since Victor got in office!

Oh! My God you people need to be put away. You just have heard or made up what you think is good. Ever since Victor became mayor it has been called the poorest little town in the world.

Wake up crack heads it has now been changed to the poorest city in the world? Only Hill sycophants would make that up! But orange cove was the poorest city in California no lie it was and Victor worked hard to make the changes Orange Cove needed! This city has changed a lot thanks to Victor and the previous council!

Faux, you really are delusional. Too many funny mushrooms, perhaps?

Lopez made the claims of Orange Cove being the poorest city in the nation, in the state, and probably the world. It was all a part of his "gimme gimme hand out grants" approach to fleecing the government and the city, by steering grant money to his kick back contractor buddies.

You Lopez drug dealers are pathetic.

Oh yes the good old days. Future behavior is pretty well judged by past behavior. People usually do not change. So do we want the same of what the people worked so hard to change. I don't this council has only been a little while. Give them their 30 years Victor and see what they can do.

Mrs.Sheridan left her archives to Victor Lopez in her will. So don't speak on behalf of people you never knew! And making statements that Victor put money in his pocket is just plain stupidity. Learn how city government works them come back and speak on it. Other than that stay a Hill sycophant and good luck to you.

Are you sure it wasn't left to the city of Orange Cove? Victor has a tendency to associate himself directly to the city of Orange Cove thinking they're "one." I'd double check that if I were you. Thanks for the info.

Making statements that Lopez put city money in his pocket is not stupidity, it is RIGHT ON THE MONEY - pardon the pun.

Speaking of which, how much money is Victor suing the city for? junior got $25,000, is Victor hoping for a bigger score?

Well when you have a council like we do now that makes mistakes and fires people while there is a work injury pending you have to pay! It is law! Workers comp laws that protect every employee in the united states! And as far as Victor Sr there is no current law suit! If anyone needs, call city hall and ask if there is.

The video speaks for itself! But the Spanish speaking voters will not understand the history of Victor Lopez because this is in English.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Pisces

Things are not always what they seem today, so be careful. Someone might appear to be completely honest but turn out later to have been fooling you in some way. Or a situation may seem quite clear-cut right now but forthcoming events will reveal that things are very different under the surface. So be wary about who and what you believe, and don't let anyone push you into making important decisions today because they may not be in your best interests.
