Spain is having trouble right now, one of the weaker links in the euro-thing, just got their debt downgraded, far more serious situation than Canada which looks to be the least worse off of all [so far] ... 'Spain Facing 'Exceptional' Hardship' - businessweek.com Spain has nothing to do with people of this continent, indigenous or otherwise, hasn't for a long time, as a government machine, quite a few refugees from there came over especially in the late 30s and 40s, but they're mexicanos now except for the few who ended up further south The whole 'Texas' thing was about slavery, which was from immediately after El Grito universally abhorrent to mexicanos, banned in the first articles of the first constitution ... check out article number one of the 'republic of Texas' constitution, it's a right-to-property clause, says a man has a right to hold and work his negros as he sees fit, and that's that ... good friend of mine is descended from at least one of these negros, grew up in the remains of an escaped-slave culture near Poza Rica ... 'looked better and more democratic', yeah right, tell him that ... pretty much everybody is agreed Santa Anna was a useless dickhead, means nothing, has no value to the conquerors' argument ... next to the strong slavers faction, hatred of catholics was a big factor, check out stories of the San Patricios, it wasn't so easy to get an irishman to shoot people just because they were abolitionist papists LC does have a point however, it not being the weekend or anything ... big political day, major event, didn't give much of a market rally though eh ... bloody banks, wonder if we can work up a Banker Depatriation Act for BO to ram through quick
