An Unmasked Rep. Gallego Flexes Muscles For Mexican Culture

Ok, we all get it. When you are a member of the U.S. Congress, or a through and through politician, sometimes you are put in awkward and embarrassing situations, and other times you do it to yourself.

Rep. Ruben Gallego (D) attended a local pro-immigration, pro-Mexican heritage festival in Phoenix to bring awareness to the Mexican culture in Arizona.

According to Osbor Block Watch's Facebook page, the group that put together the event, the celebration would be filled with "clowns. ethnic dancers, fire fighters, police, and wrestlers."

Gallego made it a point to 'clown around' with the ethnic dancers and lucha libre wrestlers. Orale!

Ruben, c'mon vato, if you are going to start posing like this and dancing the night away, do it right, carnal.

Where is the luchador mask? Seriously.
