   Numbers do not lie.
The Puertorican Independence Party loses its franchise, again!
...and other "tales from the crypt"...


Laid to rest.
Good bye, old friend!
Well, my friends, here we are once again, the votes have been cast, and counted, the people have spoken; the decision is made. Just as with our brothers up in the United States, the voice of the people has called out a resounding, ENOUGH!

Flame Alert! Enough bending of our ears with pernicious lies that serve only to insult, rather than persuade us. Enough stealing of our hard-and-honorably-earned money to finance a life of kingly opulence through capricious and heartless taxation. Enough laughing at our perceived idiocy behind closed doors with the rest of your cronies. Enough spitting in the face of our beloved American brothers to earn PR points with lecherous villains like Chávez, or to weasel a few more votes from the morbidly gullible independentistas.

When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.

—[ Thomas Jefferson ]—


This election has proven that the people are still well in command of their destiny, the future leaders would do well to heed the lessons here implied. We are a thinking, well-informed body who are selecting you to be the instrument of our will. In essence, you are honored with the role of public servant. Operative word here: “servant”.

Flame Alert! Do you get it now, Anibal? We can also laugh at idiocy, but we do it out in the open, dancing in the streets, and without urging any of our buddies to close the door.

Flame Alert! But we are not through with you yet, buddy: you still have to show up before The People, once again, early next year, and answer to more than a score of criminal charges. We can hardly wait to hear what clever lies you will try to amuse us with, when that time comes.

But enough of Anibal and his lies! Let’s talk about the truth, and in this case, a very special truth that has been decades in the making, and which only now, based on the results of the last two elections, comes to light in full blossom.

Oh, yes, the truth, at last. How lovely, how grand!

After decades of basking in the glow of a falsely perceived intellectuality, we can now see clearly the true colors of the so-called independentistas. This is the second election in a row, where they have failed to attract enough of a following to even stay within the race. I’m sorry for you guys, but the truth is that, without those numbers, you can no longer claim to represent a legitimate aspiration of The People of Puerto Rico.

You should take a bow, you put up a good fight, but now it is time to face the music.

We The People of Puerto Rico, do not care enough for you and your leftist ideals to even give you the votes to keep your franchise. By any legal definition, you do not represent Us. This is your final, civilized call to leave the arena gracefully, and with dignity, and not try to "pull a Rosello". In other words, it was nice, but now it is over, good bye, go away.

The house lights dim, the band strikes up a harmonious chord in crescendo...

And now, the end is near; and so I face the final curtain. My friend, I'll say it clear, I'll state my case, of which I'm certain. I've lived a life that's full. I've traveled each and every highway; and more, much more than this, I did it my way.

Regrets, I've had a few; But then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do and saw it through without exemption. I planned each charted course; each careful step along the byway, but more, much more than this, I did it my way.

Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew, when I bit off more than I could chew. But through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall; and did it my way.

I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill; my share of losing. And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that; and may I say - not in a shy way, no, oh no not me, I did it my way.

For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels; and not the words of one who kneels. The record shows I took the blows - And did it my way!

Now, please, good bye, go away.

Speaking of falsehoods, here's another bejeweled "revelation" from the only-true poll of public opinion, (a.k.a. general elections): the "pendejín" vote.

In keeping with the patent, almost boundless contempt that the governor has for the people's intelligence he ordered the faithful horde of core-commonwealth-fanatics to voice themselves as faithful statehooders who will "demand that they be respected" by voting for Rosello as a write-in candidate.

I think that what was being sought here was that the pro-statehood population would be swayed by their perceived "colleagues" to undermine the legitimate Fortuño candidacy by casting their votes elsewhere (Rosello) and therefore actually increasing the chances that (dig this!) those who don't vote for Anibal, actually help elect him again!

The kind of animal idiocy that is supposed of the statehooders, for a scheme like that to work is even more insulting than the contemptuous laugh from the "close the door" incident.

Flame Alert! In spite of what you may think, Anibal, these elections prove that you are wrong. Of almost one million people who lovingly believe in the principles of the American Constitution, only 20,700-odd were mentally deficient enough to actually believe your idiotic attempt at social engineering.

Accounting for the use of brain-cell-destroying toxins like aspartame, and the incidence of x-ray exposure during early pregnancy, having 20,700-odd mentaly deficient individuals out of every one million is disturbing, from a health-care point of view, but understandable and even insignificant from a political point of view.

These elections have made it clear to everyone, in Puerto Rico, and abroad, who are the sane, and who are the "pendejines".

Flame Alert! Oh yeah, just one last thing, Anibal: Numbers do not lie. Election results like these have not been seen in Puerto Rican politics since the fifties. I can't help but point out that this defeat is not only devastating, not only crushing, it is humiliating. It truly reflects the people's displeasure at your contempt, incompetence and pathological lying.

Flame Alert! Yes, I know it shows, and I admit it: I have waited a very long time to watch you go down in flames, and I am shamelessly enjoying every minute of it. Burn Suckah!

From the bottom of my heart: Thank you, People of Puerto Rico!
