Follow up on La Trocha Mocha

Last night I reported my amazement at the fast collapse of the "trocha mocha". Today Tal Cual carries its own feelings on the front page and I cannot help but translate them, and post the front page picture, where you can observe the too sharp cliffs that were begging to fall.


the man wants a gasoduct all the way to Patagonia

the man finances a bridge in Uruguay

the man helps the poor in the United States

the man builds housing in Jamaica

the man saves the Spanish shipping industry

the man buys bad Argentinean debt and allows Argentina to become solvent with the IMF

the man offers 30 million US dollars to Bolivia for social purposes

the man says that we are ready to withstand the imperial invasion

the man is the support of socialism Cuban style

Venezuela has its "trochabismo" [sic]
¡No pasarán!

explicative notes:

Trochabismo: pun, conveying the sense that the Chavez way lead us to the abysm through this very symbolic emergenreplace to repalce the main Venezuelan highway.

¡No pasarán! : very famous leftist slogan, used in all of Latin America to signifiy that oppression shall not pass. How appropriate, ain't it so?
