Spain

Needless to say, I am depressed about the election in Spain. The best case scenario is that the Spanish people wake up and remember what it was that their ancestors were doing for 700 years. I am hoping that this little Socialist will come to terms with reality and do the right thing. If not, I am hoping that somewhere in Spain, in a remote outpost there is a young general without a reputation for political involvement, maybe with a mixed past, perhaps someone who did not get into the naval academy and ended up as an officer in the infantry, perhaps someone who was misguided in youth even, and thought of being a freemason but would not agree to their creed, someone who later distinguished himself in the field and was made general very young...

I emphatically do not want to see Mother Spain plunged into a Civil War again, but if she sinks to the lower abyss of anarchy, commieism and Mohammedanism, then let's pray that there is someone who will step to the plate and lead her out again.

Francisco Franco y Bahamonde, pray for us!
