CINCO DE MAYO 2012

For those of you who use Cinco De Mayo as an excuse to binge drink I have a few fun facts for you in this 150th anniversary of an excuse to swallow vast amounts of Tequila with lime and salt for no apparent reason.


Literally "the Fifth of May," Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican Holiday celebrating the Battle of Puebla, which took place on May 5, 1862. In 1861, France sent a massive army to invade Mexico, as they wanted to collect on some war debts. The French army was much larger, better trained and equipped than the Mexicans struggling to defend the road to Mexico City. It rolled through Mexico until it reached Puebla, where the Mexicans made a valiant stand, and, against all logic, won a huge victory. It was short-lived, as the French army regrouped and continued; eventually taking Mexico City, but the euphoria of an unlikely victory against overwhelming odds is remembered every May fifth.


I have a overwhelming idea for a new US National Holiday!
 We will call it...Seis De Noviembre, for those of you who don't understand English or Spanish it's the 6th of November.


On this day we will oust the most Commie loving, Socialist, Narcissistic, Lie'r, in chief within this nations history...Barack Hussein Obama, or Mr. Cool as he is known by his sycophant fans.


On the eve of the polls closing WE THE PEOPLE will embark in consuming rivers of adult beverages, for those of you tea toddlers chugging V8 juice will fortify you.


SALUTE TO SEIS DE NOVIEMBRE!
