Republicans and their anticipative challenges

     Robert Edward Lee had a troubling habit of considering what to do next, just in case everything went as planned, and just in case everything fell apart, and the mules bolted with the tongue.
 
      The Republican leadership, Republicans in general, are complacent dumboes.   Little matter be they Country Club Poofy Republicans or Rightwing Crazy (as your humble servant) Republicans.   Neither group associates with white trash.   For example, as we have written many, many times there are many more Latins who are Republicans voters than the pollster pick up on their radars, and they too are somewhat selective about their social orbits and associations.   They make wide berth around the food-stamp generation and the anchor baby latinoids.    It is just the way we are.   Perhaps it is one of our very most defining characteristics.
 
       Returning to the leadership, this lack of social exposure is, once again compounded by the fact that the leadership is either composed of marxists, one-worlders, LBDSGXNs, and saboteurs or they are really big Dumboes.    As the Sequester began, the Republicans should have initiated, but did not, an incessant insistence that the "President" wanted the Sequester so that he could continue to campaign.   It should have been pointed out, even before the Sequester began, that the President would move to do things that be be disruptive and offencive to the oestrogen, right-brain, and other handicapped people:
 
                                 (1)    In the coming days the President is going to tell you that we must cease programs that feed poor, minority children.   That will be a lie.   While the parents should feed those children, ongoing nutrition programs funded and/or operated by the central government can proceed fully, with a budget that is 105% the size that it was last year.
 
                                  (2)    In the coming days the President is going to tell you, through his various spokesmen, that criminals under prosecution will have to be freed because there are no funds to expedite their cases.   That is a lie.  Every central government court and prosecution district will have 105% of the budget that it had during  the previous fiscal year.
 
                                 (3)     In the coming days the President is going to tell you that air travel will be delayed by three to six hours due to lack of necessary Transportation Security Personnel and lack of sufficient Air Traffic Controllers.   That is a lie.   Every duty station has the same available allocations of funds as last fiscal year, plus five percent more.
 
                                 (4)     In each and all cases, the President can choose to make very small reductions in the rate of increase of the budget allocations for every one of the Departments he administers, and get on with the job at hand, or he can choose to remain the demagogue that he is and try to frighten the American public with visions of burning houses and moth-balled police cars and airplanes frozen in mid-air because they cannot receive permission to land.
 
                                  If such things happen, it will be because the President chose to let them happen.   He actually will have chosen to cause them to happen.   Why?   Because he wants to act as if only he can protect America from a group of people whose desire it is to starve old people and children....and to close down sewer treatment plants.....and to be big meanies.
                                 The President is at home leading from behind  people such as the Occupy Wall Street movement whose claim to fame is trespass, filth, obscenity, vandalism, decadence, sloth, and covetousness.    He is a surly extortionist and a person who literally changes his stories week by week.   He desires turmoil....he has not presented a fiscal government budget in the entire 5 years of his occupation of the White House....and he likes to campaign with lies, apparently on a full-time basis, instead of confronting the mess that he has made of the budget.
                                 Please, look at your daughter and your son right now.  Each of them owes over 100,000 dollars as their share of the national debt.   The President wants to change America into that wondrous classless society by making one and all ....very poor.  There are not enough rich people in the world to pay for his plans or to recover from his accusations and remedies....it is a sophistry that he hopes will continue to work on the people who are known as "low-information" and "low discernment capacity" voters.   Are you one of the stupid ones?   Are you willing to enslave your children and their children to the grey, drab yoke of the housing projects for everyone?   To the standing in line for a limp piece of celery?  To waiting in government offices for three or four weeks so as to obtain a permit to buy a pedal for a bicycle, issued by the Peoples' Commission for Safety, Transportation, and Egg Beaters?
 
      Remember, as an American, you are entitled to the truth.   The truth is that there should be no interruptions of central government activity or services in the coming weeks and months.   You can mark our words that there will certainly be no interruption of the flights of Air Force I taking the President to various campaign stops throughout the country, as he steps up his efforts to develop a rubber-stamp Congress....in 20 months from these days.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
 
 
     And that is something like what El Gringo Viejo would have had ready if he were in charge of offensives for the Republican Party.   It is how one must deal with an extorting, thug, marxist, white-trash Community Organiser....with no transcripts from high school, and two universities, and no birth certificate, and no medical records, and with and aunt and an uncle living in Massachusetts for many, many years on the public dole...as illegal aliens...and a communist mother, father, and grandparents.    It doesn't make a pretty picture, but I did not paint it.

Many Villians and Many Heroes

     El Gringo Viejo has driven north from Seguin, Texas several million times, heading for either San Marcos, Texas to the University there....now known as Texas State University, a dull replacement for its older and more noble name, Southwest Texas State University.....or to other points to the north.   Other times meant a drive to Austin, Texas the capital of the Republic of Texas, where he lived for a good while.   Austin is the Sodom and the Gomorrah of our blessed entity, but it remains a good and interesting place even for dull and boring people such as me.




Jose Franscisco Navarro
Among the Greatest of the Greatest
of all Texian Heroes
 

      But, going back to just north of Seguin, Texas on Texas 123 one soon enters into a place called Geronimo, more correctly pronounced Hei -ROE - nei - moh.  The little community is an old Spanish Mexican outpost that long, long ago lost all such characteristics with the arrival of the thousands of German settlers in the 1840s and 1850s.    But, the names mean something.  The school district is named Navarro Independent School District, and the rural community, never incorporated into city status, is still formally known as Geronimo.   It has been gentrified in recent years with the obligatory Sears houses from  the early 1900s changed into antique and collectictible dens.   A very good, and very typical Mexican restaurant named "Loera's", sits on the right, on the north end of town....quite close to, you guessed it...Geronimo Creek.
     Jose' Antonio Navarro was of the family that gave the names.   Some have declared that Geronimo was the grandfather of Jose' Antonio, while others maintain that Jose' Antonio's father founded the large ranch during the Spanish Colonial period and christened in on the day of San Geronimo, that being the saint's day on the Roman Catholic calendar.   Whichever is true, and we have spent and will continue to spend time researching the point, the Navarros were well entrenched in the life of the area by the 1830s.

Stephen Fuller Austin
Father of the Republic of Texas
     Jose' Antonio Navarro was an interesting personality because he managed to have had four different citizenships during his lifetime without every having renounced one....or applying for another.    He was born a Spanish subject, and with the completion of the break by Mexico from Spain, he became a Mexican citizen....first a subject of Emperor Agustin de Iturbide I (1822 - 1823) and then as a citizen of the Republic upon the deposition of the Imperiato and the establishment of the republican Constitucion de 1824.   As Texas and Coahuila devolved into the mess of war against the Centralists under the command of Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, Navarro became a Texian....not only by just standing still, but also by attending, participating, and guiding the movements and actions of the Convention at Washington on the Brazos...near what is now Brenham, Texas.   Three people of the sixty there gathered had considerable experience in the nature of political stylings, the law, and matters of State.  They were Sam Houston, Lorenzo de Zavala, and Jose' Antonio Navarro.


     Navarro had one other great marker in his personnel file.   He was the closest friend and advisor to another great Texian personality...The Father of Texas ....Stephen F. Austin.   Because of Austin's health, it was thought that Navarro not only represented a large body of large landowners, but also the Latin group in general, the professions, experience in dealing with Lopez de Santa Anna, but also Stephen Fuller Austin himself on the floor of the Congress. The Congress of Texas....the Congress of Coahuila y Texas....and the Congress of the Republic of Mexico.

     To-night, we wait with Trepidation and fear of showing fear.....1,600 Mexicans supporting the indefensible Mexican Centralist position in Mexico City, but fearing the show of fear....against a rag-tag bunch of 200 or bunch, too stubborn to have taken the advice of Texano civilian leaders and military advisors...to choose their fight to the east and not waste themselves before a tyrant by dying uselessly in a nowhere place, defending nothing of military import.    This is their penultimate night on this earth, those inside the walls, and fully one-third of those outside the walls will join their enemies on the flight to judgement in less than thirty hours from the posting of this notice.

Pray for the souls of friend and foe.  The Ghosts of the Alamo will be restless again.  They never go away.

A Word from the Past about the Past


______________

     This entry comes partly from last year's blog because much of history does not change, unless successfully re-argued. We attempt at this moment to re-visit these same moments of the Texian Historical Calendar.   These are the profound times, and those were profound times.   Few, in the right, opposed the many and powerful who were in the wrong.   The only thing the few had in abundance was resolve.....and even that was measured by small numbers during the darkest hours.    All men stood to lose their lives and fortunes.   Women would be left with fatherless children, if they were lucky.  Fortunes, small and great, would become nothing overnight should the Presidente-Generalissimo Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna dispose of the "filibusteros y invasores viken~os" (filibusterers and Viking invaders).
     The one person who stood to lose the most was the man pictured below.  He was Lopez de Santa Anna's most vigorous detractors and opponents.   A native of the Yucatan, de Zavala was prominment on the political and social scene throughout Mexico.   This is important, because in those years, the Yucatan Peninsula was clearly a separate identity, socially and politically and culturally from the rest of Mexico.   This is not so odd, because Mexico in reality was essentially a loosely bound geographical area, not too precisely proscribed, consisting of as many as seven or eight different and functionally somewhat autonomous regions and States.
Manuel Justiano Lorenzo de Zavala y Saenz

      It is best to remember that the Defenders of the Alamo never knew that Texas had declared independence and withdrawn from the Mexican Union. The Alamo fell on the 6th of March, 1836, four days later. Their battle flag was the Mexican tri-colour with the number 1824 written on the center white field. Some think that that banner was designed as a statement of desire to seek reconciliation with Mexico. It was and it was not.
      It was first and foremost a statement of total rejection of the person and authority of Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna. At best, Texas would never have remained withing the Mexican Union. A commonwealth arrangement was possible. Some dispute the fact that the 1824 flag flew over the Alamo, but it is well documented, even in the diary of Lt. Col. Enriquez de la Pena, XO, First Zapper Batallion, which was the first group to breach the walls. It is said that two flags were taken by the Army, one was the white star/blue field of the New Orleans Blues, Volunteers, and the other the Mexican 1824 flag. Some say the Lopez de Santa Ana had the latter destroyed, some say it was taken at San Jacinto, after the defeat of the main body of Lopez de Santa Anna's army and his capture. Legends say that a collector probably has it to this day, hidden away. I doubt that.

_____________

Sixty men signed the Declaration of Independence. Ten of them had lived in Texas for more than six years, while one-quarter of them had been in the province for less than a year.




     The composition of the delegation has been condemned at times, but consider that only 2 of the general officers in the Centralist Government's Army of Invasion were Mexicans by birth....Lopez de Santa Anna and Urrea.  The commander of the considerable Mexican naval force in the western Gulf of Mexico was an American.   The other five were European, or from elsewhere in the New World.
  Notice also the absence of the name of Stephen F. Austin, the "Father of Texas".....but his absence was due to ill health.   The lack of more Latins comes from two reasons (1)   the English speaking group was already in the vast majority of the Texas population even at the early time, and (2) the greater bulk of the Latin group, which actually did oppose Santa Anna by overwhelming percentage, was mired in the San Antonio - Goliad area, already well "behind enemy lines", making travel north to Washington on the Brazos extremely dangerous.   Especially for the Latin element of the population, Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna had brutal solutions for their "treachery".
     The three Latins present, interestingly, had a combined worth equivalent to the 57 others.   Stephen F. Austin was elected finally as President and de Zavala became essentially the Executive Officer, having been elected Vice-President of Texas and serving in the absence of President Austin.

More later.

The Independence of the Republic of Texas - 2 March 1836

TO-NIGHT PASSES INTO TO-MORROW, WHICH MEANS THAT WE CELEBRATE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF TEXAS IN THE FACE OF ALL ODDS, AND AGAINST THE PRESENCE OF ONE OF THE BEST  (and worst) ARMIES ON THE PLANET AT THE TIME.

Photo


There were seven general officers, six of whom were either high mediocre to extremely competent leading the Expeditionary Force.  There were 13,000 troops, either front-line or close support and reserve, of whom, probably 9,000 were high-mediocre to excellent in terms of combat efficiency.  The Texians could not comprehend the rapidity of movement and placement that the Mexican Centralist forces covered in the length of time that they used.
     The Texians could muster, at best, no more than 3,000 actives, very few of whom had ever served in anything beyond a militia.   Among the Latin elements, there were several hundred who had had experience in drill, tactics, supply, strategy formation and the like.   But the Anglo element was good with a rifle, but not easily trained.   There were a few officer level and command Sergeant level who could serve as a brain and nervous system for any Army, but the heart, muscle, soul, and will of the Army would have to come from yeomen.   Geographic understanding, cavalry, forage, and infantry would be provided by the Latins who knew the territory from about 70 - 100 years of occupation of the land under dispute by the 1824 Tricolour people who were opposing the Centralists under Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna.
 
     Then as now, the Texians made some foolish mistakes.  They thought that because they had removed a fairly strong force of Centralists under the command of Lopez de Santa Anna's brother-in-law, Gen. Perfecto de Cos, that they could handle anything coming out of Mexico City in future.  Interestingly, he was foisted finally, from the grounds of the Mission San Antonio de Valero (The Alamo) during a spirited several day battle in December, 1835.  Then when confronted with an invasion, they foolishly determined to defend a place that strategically, was neither worth defending nor offending.   Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna, luckily for Texas, was foolish and egotistical enough to waste the flower of his particular element of the overall Army in the taking of the Alamo, which will fall four mornings ahead of now.   The Texians lost perhaps the best combination of irregular integrated infantry in the world at that time....178 - 208 men.
     Why the number difference?   Bodies were burned, save for one.  And the Latin roster that was recovered revealed the names of 19 persons, although various other accounts from surviving dependents who were inside the Alamo, Latin and Anglo said that other Latins had been present in the defence, who had come from the Yorktown area and entered three or four nights before the battle.   Others had come in from Castroville without registering with the Fort's Comandancia, either Bowie or Travis.   That is why people see different levels of numbers of defenders. 
      It is known that Lopez de Santa Anna lost at least 600 dead from the 13 days of siege and repeated assaults.   It was a foolish blunder by a man who styled himself as "The Napoleon of the West". 
      Once again, it is to be repeated that the fellows inside the walls of The Alamo never knew that Texas had "gone Independent".   Tomorrow marks the Day of the Declaration, written in large part by Lorenzo de Zavala, the first Vice-President of the Republic....the Alamo would fall four days later.
 
The new Enemy of Texas comes from the East and not the South so much.   It would have been so much better to never have joined their union and just decided to stay close, be friends, and be forever independent from things such as what are going on in Washington D.C. in these times.
 
Independencia y Libertad
El Gringo Viejo


This up-date, penned 1 March 2014.  We have complete the third reading of  The Blood of Heroes  by James Donovan.   This will constitute the 20th complete book-length work that has been read concerning The Alamo, the Revolution against the Mexican Centralists, and the First Texian Republican Period 1836 - 1845, by El Gringo Viejo.   It is a recommended work, although diverges on ten or twelve points of common understanding held by both sides in this Epic Battle.   The several hundred thousand other points and statements of knowledge worthy facts are worthy of OROGs' attentions. 

A shudder moved through the room....

     Things like this can frighten small incompetent, self-centred little bullies.   People like Obama, Hillary, Holder and their types.   Throughout uniondom and all the little bailiwicks of the hopelessly morally challenged in terms of handling other peoples' money, like Chicago, can see this news and tremble.    There is some irony because this woman was the arch-nemisis of Josephina Mota, the conservative candidate in the last Presidential elections.   She went into Gloria Alred mode against the female conservative candidate, especially because of the educational and union reforms Josephina had been proposing.   The irony?   The winner of the election, Enrique Pen~a Nieto of the centrist PRI party essentially adopted the same reforms and union rules and procedures overhaul, passed it all through Congress with the PRI and the conservative PAN joining to make a 4 to 1 majority against the thoroughly marxist PRD.
     We include the Business Insider article below.    This psychotic hag did much to destroy what had been a pretty nice educational system, especially during the last six to eight years of her erratic, rapacious terms of service.  The union "leaders" in the United States might do well to consider what has befallen this, "the most powerful woman in Mexico".
     This is a woman who frequently said that she did not serve Mexico, but rather Mexico served her.....and that there will never be a President who could boss her around.     During the previous term of Felipe Calderon Hinojosa,  the investigations began.   Incredibly, the new administration took the information, kept the prosecutors and investigators as hold-overs and pursued the case to this point.

The Alleged Extravagances Of Mexico's Most Powerful Woman Are Something To Behold


Elba Esther Gordillo Mexico

Elba Esther Gordillo, the head of Mexico's powerful, 1.5-million strong national teachers’ union, was arrested earlier this week on charges related to corruption.

Many see the arrest as an attempt by Mexico's new president, Enrique Peña Nieto, to put his foot down on a woman who had pretty much become a kingmaker in the country — able to send 1.5 million votes to whomever she wished.  Either way, allegations about Gordillo's luxurious lifestyle have been widespread over the past few days. It's something to behold.
      While she was born into poverty, Gordillo currently holds the title of “president for life” of the teacher's union. She has been its leader for 24 years.  Officially, her monthly salary is around $6,000, according to the Independent. However, in the past the Mexican press has asked how she could afford an outfit that included $1,200 shoes and a $5,500 purse.  She appears to frequently get plastic surgery, and is also reported to own a $1.6 million home in La Jolla, a San Diego. Calif., suburb.
     Gordillo was arrested on Tuesday as she got off her private jet, flying between San Diego and Mexico City. Gordillo and two allies were accused of being siphoning off $200 million of union money, a figure investigators claim is only 10 percent of the money missing.   According to Mexican blog Animal Politico, that money was reportedly linked to $17,000 of plastic surgery, $650,000 paid to an art gallery, and a $2.1 million shopping spree at the Neiman Marcus store in San Diego. Other questionable expenditures included bills for hangar rental and aircraft maintenance, according to the Miami Herald.
     Gordio's generosity to her staff was famous. In 2006, Gordillo was reported to have taken 125 of her employees and their children on a seven-day Pacific cruise. She was later reported to have given a fleet of Hummers to regional bosses in 2008. (They were later raffled for charity.) The Miami Herald reports that she had even been planning to take union leaders on an all-expenses paid cruise to the Caribbean from Miami late last year, but cancelled when she heard of education reforms.
     Gordillo has fended off threats before, in her own idiosyncratic way. According to the Guardian she claims to have "held off an imminent attempt to depose her in the late 1990s with the help of a witchcraft ceremony up a Nigerian mountain in which she was clothed with the pelt of a white lion that had been skinned alive."
     It doesn't seem likely she'll go down without a fight — according to the BBC, Gorio wants her tombstone to read: "Here lies a warrior, and as a warrior she died.

It is very doubtful that she will leave prison until she is well into  advanced dementia.

Let's Celebrate a little, before the ship sinks....

    A bit of a rough patch for the White House is a cause for at least a sickly smile.   Water is pouring in below-decks and the emergency horns are sounding doom for all who remain aboard.  Inundation is imminent, and the band bravely plays through "Nearer My God, to Thee".
    But, for those of us still singing "On the Road to Mandalay", and "God Save the King" in the first class saloon, emptying out 100 year old cognac to serve as anti-freeze for our soon-to-be necessary Polar Bear Swim....we have a bit of celebrating left to do.
 
 
    Let us celebrate Perfect Hypocrisy.   Obama and his minions and sycophants are terribly concerned about violence provided by the availability of firearms in the United States.   We have known that all along.  His groups have always made it clear that they really hate gun violence.   All the places his types of adminidregs have controlled for more than two generations all have gun laws that prohibit even thinking about a gun.   If a child in a school in Chicago throws his t-shirt into a laundry basket and it casts a shadow that looks within 30% of the resolution of what might be a Hopalong Cassidy cap-pistol,  then the six year old child is immediately taken to prison for nine years, and all the children in his elementary are taken to Summer Camp for three months of grief counselling.   His parents are spayed and neutered, and that is why Chicago, Los Angeles, Baltimore, New York.....name any of a number of fine progressive places.....are slaughterhouses.   Because progressives know that guns kill, and that soulless creatures born into the poverty of dependency upon government programs have no catechism, with no earthly concept of deferred gratification cannot be blamed for the fact that George Washington owned slaves.   It's obviously the fault of white people who have more money than they need and who do not wish to pay their fair share.

     And while we worry about "African-Americans" (do we really have that many people from Morocco in the United States?) and "Hispanics", why don't we shovel a score-thousand fully automatic arms into Mexico, with no way to trace their movement through the hands of some of the bloodiest scum existing.   And why don't we do it, hoping that one or two of those automatics will be used in the killing of a few Americans, or better yet, some American law officers?   Then, don't you see, we will be able to say..."We traced this gun back to a gun dealer in Arizona, therefore all gun dealers are now closed down in order to protect the American public."
     And like a much greater American....Corkscrew Sir Edmund Hillary....said at one time, during a moment of great profundity, "What difference does it make?''
      The progressives moan and pour forth their crocodile tears for all the funny looking little dark people they have to feed and care for with other peoples' money, and those of us at the bar on the sinking ship are certain that Eric Holder and all his marxist buddies were really disturbed that over 400 absolutely uninvolved Mexicans were slaughtered by these weapons, and that, miraculously he knew nothing about it, the ATF - E knew nothing about it, no one can be found to have authorised the program, George Bush did it,  and "I can't remember". Even when it is determined that there were American law enforcement casualties derived from this illegal program....no one can be found to be charged with felony manslaughter within the ranks of the Obama government.   A death occurring because of the execution of an illegal act will be considered an act of murder, and prosecuted according to the degree of aggravation of the circumstances. But tsk, tsk, boys will be boys, and criminal thug, government union, pro-marxist totalitarians really shouldn't be held accountable for every little detail.
      What difference does it make?   My God, they were just a bunch of dirty Mexicans.  Good Grief.   Mountains and molehills.


     But let us return to the bar,   Look there's a bottle of Henri Jayer Richebourg Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France that needs to be emptied before we take our chilly swim.   See if there is another, while we remember the New York Times reporters whose bones were used for trampolines by Obama campaign staffers of import.   Why?   We tend to forget....but they committed the offense of saying that Joe the Plumber was a bit put off by the socialist flavour of the comment by Barack Hussein Obama's question to Joe about wealth, suggesting that it might be good to "....spread it around"...during a brief conversation with Joe during a neighbourhood walk-around in Ohio.   Joe found the suggestion peculiar and offensive.
     And while the rest of the Obsolete Press compliantly went about trying to destroy Joe the Plumber by digging up any and every speck of anything negative or even neutral against Joe the Plumber and airing or printing it for the next 318 years....the New York Times of all entities was singled out by the union-thug, Chicago-style threatmeisters.   "Don't you dare use the word 'socialist' when referring to our campaign for Hope and Change.  You'll regret it."  Many of us have forgotten that,  but not El Gringo Viejo...here at the bar, listening to the band play,and a few of the brave are at song.   Let's listen while we clear the rest of the  supplies here. 


     And, as we left port, long before the iceberg jumped in front of us,  many were commenting about the last round of the Crisis Crisis, that never ending factory of calamity discovery that is housed somewhere on the grounds of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, District of Columbia.   It seemed that stew of concern among the public was not bubbling over into the fire.   There did not seem to the  crowd scene of wanton terror.   The vast majority of the population was not buying the White House's increasingly dire diagnosis of the impending collapse of all natural processes and the death of Lesbian Male Bull Shark Polar Bears in the Amazon because of Republican unwillingness to make the millionaires and billionaires  pay their fair share.
     And....watch gravity cease to function...Bob Woodward says that (1) Obama said that he invented sequestration, (2) that Obama moved the goal posts by suddenly lumping tax increases into the sequestration issue, (3) that the White House thugs had threatened him for having blown the whistle on the first two points.
     It is Napoleon I in the Winter of his discontent, withdrawing from Russia....but painted in the dull, marxist greys of Obama's face.   The anger Obama must feel about his low-information, stupid voters not being sufficiently intelligent to understand that they must charge the Bastille once again....they must restring the blade of the Guillotine hourly....they must buy more and more Frida paintings....they must poop on more police cars and break more and more windows of MacDonalds and destroy more and more private property.  Oh! Woe is Him.  So, even though it is too late to save the Republic, perhaps even as we finish off these last bottles, and our shoes are ruined and our ankles....soon our knees...are becoming soggy....it is good to know that the Republic  Obama wanted to ruin was already ruined. 
     Soon the people he led to do the ruin will soon turn on him, just like they turned on Robespierre, using his neck to redden the blade as well.   Frida laughing at the image of Trotsky with a hachet in his head....

     "Pass me down that last bottle.  I'll take it with me on the way down.   Listen!  The band is playing the National Anthem!  Glory Be!!!"
