LIFE imitating ART?

Eddie Saenz for TX DISTRICT 40
AND THAT COP WAS WRONG
AND OL EDDIE HERE WAS RIGHT!
Sorry folks but this is exactly what is starting to happen, life is imitating art. We the citizens are suppose to sit back and let some candidate with money declare that the Cop who did his job in eliminating a possible DWI THREAT to other drivers off the road was indeed wrong? Cmon! we here at The Political Ring don't specialize in BASHING Candidates, but when you refuse to admit doing wrong like us ordinary folk, and on top of that accuse some officer of the law doing his job of being wrong, Well that just about does it for us. That officer in Mission was just doing the job he once swore to do and now we have Ol Eddie getting the Mayor's son in his corner, political favors, and some nice public letter in the monitor equaling a pretty penny I'm sure. But in the end, why all the hoopla and so defensive against an employee doing his job. That is a bit bullish on Eddie's part to go bulleying a civil service employee in court. Chances are the charges will get dismissed after much arm twisting on the officer by well who do you all think. I'm sure the list is long, but distinguished. And is that justice? NO, hence the picture of Ol Paulie Walnuts from the Sopranos, "Hey forget about it T." "It's all taken care of T." Were some of Paulie's lines in the hit series, and well those type of lines probably fit this situation. A dapper dressed business like attired man with connections and money to influence either for good or bad depends on who you ask. This type of cover up deserves such poster figure. I thought Mr.Saenz would of owned up to the incident, but the letter in the monitor failed to do so. I expected a class act in asking the public for forgiveness, but Mr. Saenz has proven to deny such incident even occurred and that it wasn't his fault and that is just not acceptable. Wrong words in the letter, Wrong actions in accusing the officer in doing wrong, and wrong actions in covering it up. Whats next sir? What do you want to cover up next? Which hourly employee do you wanna sick your high priced lawyer on? Who do you wanna discredit next? What situation will you use your political connections to get out of next? Fighting an officer of the law in court will probably gain you some confort in stroking your ego, but the public isn't as jaded as you might think sir. Wrong Wrong Wrong, I expected better in a candidate and I was wrong. This is not a personal attack, but we here at The Political Ring will not sit here and watch this type of mob mentallity bulleying the everyday man working to make ends meet. That officer was doing his job and now we are defending him and his actions.

Man the picture with the article was classic. Anyway...since this matter has become the supreme issue in the race (the handling not the underlying arrest) you know me, I can't help but chime in. Look, I don't consider myself unbaised in this race, as it would have taken something special to motivate me to vote against he incumbant, Craddickpolusa is not enough. But, the only sign made by Saenz (excluding of course the stuff that comes out of E-News which often Spin for the sake of Spin) that the officer has done anything wrong, is the vague implication by Omar's Johnny Cocharan that Mr. Saenz's politics played a role in the initial arrest. I can't wait for the hearing where they try and throw out the policeman's report and testimony. When will YouTube get the dash cam.

Considering the sheer number and people invited (I bet that Mr. Saenz was not the only one to have served on that many boards and commissions that was invited), I guess if they wanted the Mission PD could have had the breathlyzer at the door and rounded up a view suspects.

So in a few months we find out if the DA will prosecute and what Court will get the call. I guess it is more entertaining to have a circus in town rather than an election. Though the story is only big in the world of blog as the news is scant. Salinas will need a good catch phrase for this one..."if it doesn't fit..."or "Does she look like a rape victim..." Either way some of the public may hate him, but his office phone will not stop ringing

dac,
We tried our best to refrain from choosing sides in this race and will keep doing so in the future. But it's just VERY BULLISH for a person with that type of economic resources to go bulleying a city employee and the system we all have to live by. Why should anyone be above the law? It isn't right and that is why we have chosen to illustrate such celebrity Saenz parody figure on our blog. Don't they resemble eachother not only in looks, but bullish attitude? Well as the mob would say, "hey forget about it." This campaign should concentrate on apologizing to the public rather than trying to defy the odds of having the charges dropped. I mean hey, Mission PD let the man go, then on top of that gave him a PR bond to boot and still Saenz decides to publicly through means of enews discredit the arresting officer and Mission PD for doing things WRONG. WOW! You can't make this kinda behavior stuff up can you? Mob like mentallity to think that one can cover this sort of thing up and be bold enough to publicly try to discredit the entire Police Force of Mission. Pretty Bullish Act if you ask me.

Why don't you look into these allegations of Aaron having an ugly past? Cause if this is ture. I will never vote for a wife beater and a druggie.

He is an elected official. And I thing we have the right to know. I voted for Carmen Gonzales the first time. And no one told me about her arrest in family violence. That being said. I will not vote for her this time. For that very reason. So, look it up Political Ring! You say your fair and balanced. Well, show us this fair and balanced. Cause the way I see it. Your just another Aaron Pena puppet.

Eddie Saenz your attacks on the representative are offensive. From a man who embarassed us with a drunk driving charge and a very dirty cover up you should be ashamed. Pena drinks Pepsi, not alcohol, and does not do drugs. We live here and know better than to believe your lies. Shame on you.

8:48 AM,

A Pena puppet, HA! Too funny! My stomach got an ab workout just thinking about some of the POLITICALY CHARGED FINGERPOINTING.

Pena the wife beater and druggie.

Saenz the teflon don that not even a police department can give him a parking ticket.

These accusations are coming from a community that is predominantly CATHOLIC RIGHT? Yet we have Chingos of Priests committing horrendous acts on children, yet I don't hear a peep about leaving the Catholic church. I don't hear a peep about protesting the Vatican about some of these priests in our communities. Supposedly this county couldn't even indicte Omar Guerrero for the things he did with an underage girl. Or a constable who doesn't even have a license to be a law enforcement officer is still out there pretending to play Cops and Robbers. Another Constable accused of stealing property for personal profit is still seeking Re-election and just watch people will still vote for him. And now you decide you guys want to have ISSUES with Pena and Saenz? Really, lets get real here for a minute and listen or read some of these allegations on these blogs, they're ANONYMOUS!! Hello, people can say just about anything regardless of how true it even is.

Now that being said, Pena or Saenz may have there faults who cares, one of them is going to get elected REGARDLESS! I didn't vote for bush, but he's my president, so i have to deal with it huh? The senators texas has im sure we didnt vote for them either, yet there they are representing us huh?

HERES THE SAD TRUTH OF THE MATTER HERE PEOPLE:
These politicians in question don't have to kiss everyone's butt, they just have to go out and kiss the right ones and they get elected. There is GANG POLITICAL FACTIONS that are working endlessly to place their candidates in power regardless if you like them or not. These FACTIONS RECRUIT FROM WITHIN, NOMINATE, AND GROOM THERE COMPADRES TO BE PLACED IN OFFICE TO LATER PROFIT ONE WAY OR ANOTHER, While you and I just sit there having to live in the real world working for a living and coming up short when it comes to so called luck. It's all set up that way here in the valley, so bicker all you want about Saenz or Pena, one will win and the other will loose, but both will live very comfortably. I just have a problem when more than one political and public official try to cover up what is true. Call a spade a spade, and I guarantee nobody is perfect in this little political game. I have nothing against Eddie Saenz, but lets not try to be above the law. Every man and woman should adhere to the same law, dont ya think? That is why I decided to question and attack the political mumbo jumbo enews was putting out about Saenz. Pena seems to be doing fine in his campaign, Im sure a blog here and there won't matter much to his campaign.

Now as far as these 2 guys committing half the things said on these blogs, well that just comes with the title they are seeking. Its politics and all is fair I guess. But covering up FACTS and DECLARING TO BE ABOVE THE LAW is just going to piss alot of law abiding citizens like me OFF. We are voting for a CANDIDATE not A PRIEST.

Clinton?
Bush?

No need to go into details about their shady history do I? PARENTS should be the ROLE MODELS not some politicians, celebrity, athlete, or president.

MY ADVICE:
ALL THE ACUSATIONS ARE NO MORE THAN 2 to 3 people disguising there accusations under anonymous names just to cause animosity. This town is pretty small when it comes to politics, you're either on one side or the other. 2 factions are running this District 40 race and the bottom line is those who are coming on the blogs are just the hired help commonly referred to as TECHO POLITIQUEROS otherwise KNOWN AS TECHO POLITICAL STRATEGISTS.

LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT I MEAN ABOUT THESE POLITICAL BLOGS THAT ARE HIRED BY ONE CANDIDATE AND YOU TELL ME IF IT MAKES YOU PEE IN YOUR PANTS FROM LAUGHTER:

(Warning the following are headlines from enews and well maybe the Hired big gun Democratic Strategist Kelly Fero)

Lets see if we can distinguish who wrote what:

"Aaron Pena Getting Rich Off Of The Same Electricity Companies That Increased Your Monthly Bill"

WOW! SO I GUESS PENA WILL FORECLOSE ON YOUR HOME, KICK YOUR GRANDMA OUT OF THE OLD FOLKS HOME AND SHUT OFF YOUR ELECTRICITY IF YOU DONT VOTE FOR HIM TOO RIGHT? HA! THIS MUMBO JUMBO MAKES GOOD READING MATERIAL WHEN SOMEONE IS TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS ON THE PORCELAIN THROWN.

"Aaron Pena Developing A Pattern"

IS IT MALE PATTERN BALDNESS? OR IS HIS HAIR GETTING GRAY? WHAT PATTERN? DOES THIS PATTERN COME IN ASSORTED COLORS?

"Republican Aaron Pena Voted Against A Cancer Cure Fund! Eddie Saenz Says He Will Vote For It!"

AND PENA WILL SHOOT YOU IF YOU OPPOSE HIM TOO RIGHT? AND LET ME GUESS, SAENZ WILL JUMP IN FRONT OF THAT BULLET FOR YOU THE VOTER. WHOOOOO, SO NOW EDDIE SAENZ IS SUPERMAN HUH? WHO COMES UP WITH THIS MATERIAL CRAP? DOES THIS enews BLOGGER EVEN WORK? WHY DOESN'T SAENZ JUST HIRE SOMEONE WITH SOME EXPERTISE INSTEAD OF THESE COMIC BOOK STORY TELLERS?

"Leadership in the face of adversity"

WHAT THE HELL HAS SAENZ LED? IM CURIOUS HERE, WHAT LEADERSHIP QUALITIES HAS HE DISPLAYED IN THE FACE OF OL MR ADVERSITY? LETS SEE, PAYROLL? LED HIS SURVEYORS FOR SURVEYING? HOW BOUT A DRAFTSMAN? DID HE LEAD THEM, NAH, IM SURE HE'S GOT PEOPLE THAT DO THAT WORK FOR HIM. OH OH MAYBE HIS AMBULANCE TEAM, DID HE LEAD THEM? MAYBE TO THE HOSPITAL ON A CALL?

"Blame Republican Aaron Pena and His Republican Friends"

COULD OF SWORN HIS NAME HAD A "D" BY HIS TITLE ON T.V. HOW DOES HE STAY SO WELL LETS SEE SO GROUNDED TO THE COMMUNITY OF THE VALLEY WITHOUT SOUNDING TO REPUBLICANISH?

"Blame The Republicans! Yes, That Means You Aaron Pena"

THE ENGLISH ARE COMING!, NAZIS, AL-QAEDA, COMMUNISTS, NOW REPUBLICANS? HURRY HIDE IN THE BOMB BUNKER QUICKLY BEFORE THE OLD WHITE MIDDLE AGED MEN PUT THERE RICH HANDS ON YOU!!
"San Antonio Express Blames Aaron Pena For Killing The Innocence Bill"

WHATS THE INNOCENCE BILL? SHOULDN'T enews EXPLAIN TO ITS READERS WHAT IT IS AND WHAT PENA DID SINGLEHANDEDLY TO KILL IT. KILLING ANYTHING IS BIG NEWS, EXPLAIN!!
"Aaron Pena Protecting Drug Dealers"

HA!, REALLY HOW? DID HE BUILD A SAFE HOUSE FOR SOME OF THESE DRUG DEALERS? A HALF WAY HOUSE? DONT MOST DRUG DEALERS EARN MORE THAN SOME SILLY STATE REPS? DONT KNOW HOW GOOD THE RETIREMENT PLAN FOR DRUG DEALERS IS THESE DAYS, BUT OH WELL I GUESS YOU DO WHATYA GOTTA DO HUH?

"Eddie Saenz A True Democrat"
REALLY?

WHAT IS A TRUE DEMOCRAT? HOW DOES A TRUE DEMOCRAT DIFFER FROM A NORMAL AVERAGE SWING VOTER OR REPUBLICAN? ARE WE JUST SWINGING LABELS HERE? OR IS THERE REALLY A SECRET CODE SO CALLED TRUE DEMOCRATS LIVE BY.

MR.SAENZ, GET KELLY FERO AND FIRE enews, THESE SILLY KNUCKLE HEADS HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO HELP YOU. THERE SILLY NOVELA WRITING IS JUST PLAGUING YOU LIKE THE ICEBERG DID THE TITANIC. THE MATERIAL IS ONLY GOOD FOR ONE THING AND THATS MAKING YOU LOOK REALLY BAD.

I am so proud our state rep. started this campaign by asking Eddie Saenz to agree to run a positive campaign. Unfortunately he never took him up on the offer. Instead he got Edinburg News to do his dirty work by first acusing him of murder, drug dealing, serving time in prison, beating his spouse and the list goes on and on.

I just think it's such a joke to see these words on his website, "help Eddie counter their inevitable negative attacks" by giving money.

It gets worse. Those of us who read and particpate on blogs know the long history of the Saenz smear team at Edinburg News. If you can believe this, here is what Saenz said to a local newspaper --

The Pan American: Rep. Pena said you have been running "dirty whisper" campaigns via blogs that misinterpret information against him and his family. What is your reaction to this statement?

Eddie Saenz: This is just the latest in a campaign of personal smears my opponent is running against me, and he was embarrassed when he couldn't back up the claim in a recent interview. I do not blog and do not own any blogs. I have not said a single word about his family.

Folks if there ever was a reason to vote against someone this is it. Eddie Saenz and his people will do anything to win. Anything.

10:15 AM,

Well was it a REAL DWI?

Did that constable get to go home that night?

Does that constable have to turn himself in 4 days later?

I've searched the Monitor for his apology letter, but no luck yet.

Who's fault was it?

Was it the trooper's fault for stopping him?

Has he hired enews yet to spin this latest insulting headline?

These are some key questions we need to know when deciding if a DWI here in the VALLEY is in FACT a REAL DWI. Because in Dallas, Houston, or San Antonio a DWI has a different meaning, so lets not get it confused to a VALLEY DWI. Now we should not speculate that this constable is in deed guilty because:
a. he didn't blow like mr. saenz.
b. it probably wasnt his fault getting caught like mr. saenz.
c. he'll probably blame the arresting officer.
d. plead "NOLO PUEDO AFFORD ECONOMICALLY LIKE RICH POLITICAL CANDIDATES"

8:01 AM,

DWIs aren't that uncommon in the Austin Area, Our Late Governor Ann Richards herself was an alcoholic. With that being said, Our Texas Capitol at one point was rampant with alcoholics running things, but its not so much what impact this DWI has on Mr. Saenz's campaigning efforts, its rather COVERING up in the manner that who ever decided to do it that way is what is severely wrong. Accusing a police department or its officers of doing wrong is not the way to go for any political candidate. I am completely disgusted with the political system as of late. The La Joya school board races are now being recalled and look who's behind that. It just seems to me that its always the same ingredients here in the valley for political mayhem. These same politicians are the same ones that juggle the numbered political posts here in the valley amongst themselves. Its no wonder nothing ever gets done around here. Back where Im from, it used to be we would make a retired Army General a school board president, or some retired Medical Dr. a city councilman, but here we have some young cocky political novices being controlled by political factions that bank roll these campagins. But my trips to California, Florida, and New York keep me guessing when our people here will ever catch up to these metropolitan areas. And my guess is, that these people down here in charge aint willing to let go of there power. The fortunate rich serve in office and the poor just attend there free pachanga bar b ques. You give them a taco, a coke and in return you get there undivided attention, loyalty and subserviant assistance. Thats never gonna end, just as long as those with the means control those without.

Eddie Saenz has money, so he'll control some very subserviant employees as well as those he's contributed to. MONEY MONEY MONEY, if you have enough money, you can serve on any board, council, and get an array of awards as well as posts. So this DWI is no big thing in the long run, people will soon forget after they attend a free pachanga honoring who else? People are funny like that. ONLY IN THE VALLEY! People here are broke man, so every little bit helps, and with some political candidates dishing out money for votes, what do you think the outcome will be? Distasteful tactics, if you ask me.

Looks like Eddie Saenz may have some company in jail. Hidalgo County sheriff’s deputies arrested one of Eddie's biggest campaign workers - Manuel “Manny” Hernandez. The school board member remained in Hidalgo County Jail after police arrested him for burglary with intent to commit another felony.

Eddie seems to attract lawbreakers just like his former campaign manager, Aaron Gonzalez who the feds busted last year. Birds of a feather do flock together.

I guess the whole thing has broken down to who is the least evil then?

PR your question is an answer to itself. It is the small areas that are easy to control, the more metropolitan an area becomes, the tougher (and more expensive it is to contol and the more votes it takes to control the area). Until we consolidate into a true metropolitan area we are destined to allow those that control the few areas to fight over the entire region. We are never assisted by the fact that the greater powers in Austin and Washington add fuel to our coals by constantly pitting our city states against one another and districting the areas in such a way to water any illusion of power.

We still run things like a small town, even our county governments pretend we do not have large county issues and budgets.

If you find a retired general or doctor to run in the valley I might be a little shocked (I know it was just an example), but the point is the same, they don't run. Most of the time for their own reasons...look at what they would get to enjoy a public prance through their family, habits, arrests, and rumors. Look how much it costs to run a campaign...I love the grass roots concept too (it is both romantic and falls into our ideals of democracy) but most of the time it is just a pipe dream.

I also agree with you that it was not the DWI (most who drink have driven or do drive when they should not)...(for that matter some people that drive down here drive me to drink). It is the "wait for the facts" and the blame game that make it smell bad.

All this back and forth over who has what in their record is a little silly. Your right, since there is no third candidate, one of the two will be the representative. If motivation is in question, what is the motive for each to run? What is the incentive to pour so much into this campaign. Is the incumbant doing such a horrible job that he needs to be replaced. Are there new ideas that need to be pushed. I guess back to my original post on the matter, what are the issues? Is character all its about? I know it is probably the most tantalizing area, but in the end where does it get the area.

DAC,

I was once campaigning for a candidate and polling on a college campus, city streets, and just about any public place I could come across people and do you want to know just what was on people's minds when deciding what type of Candidate they wanted in the White House? And what Candidate they were going to choose back in the '80's?

Was it the ISSUES? NO

Was it the ECONOMY? NO

Was it the MARKET? NO

Was it WORLD POLITICAL CONFLICTS?NO

The hard pressing subject on people's minds then was that Our Next Comander in Chief be A Presidential Looking Candidate with a good head of hair. And their choice was Ronald Reagan the Actor. To look PRESIDENTIAL? How does one look the part today? An astounding 65% of the sample population chose this pressing issue as one of the key deciding factors when at the polls during the presidential elections back in the '80s. So its no shock to me how people come across the decision of voting for a certain candidate today.

The current state reps worked together to bring things to the valley this last session. If you replace one, it means that the newly elected rep will have to start from scratch. New reps typically pass 1 bill, if any. So, all the incumbents would have to do the hitting for the newbie if he or she wants anything done.

If we replace two reps, our chances at getting anything for the valley are small. If we get 3 new reps, just pack it up. It will take years for the valley to get anything from the state.

Any candidate who promises to change the world is giving a bunch of BS. It will take at least a couple of sessions before they are in a position to get anything done.

Eddie Saenz kick off had no 400 people, that would of made it a fire hazard. That place they had it in could not afford to hold that many people. I tell you some people just through any ol rumor together nowadays and pass it off as being truth. Nothing new, politicians by habbit usually stay away from those who have some bad publicity at the time, Just like Eddie got from his pending dwi case. Not unusual for people in the public eye to duck from people or places causing negative attention. The race is still very much alive and the decision will go to the voters. Although the deciding factor in the District 40 race will be Edcouch oddly enough. The west side of dist.40 will be split down the middle and so will Edinburg, The Delta Area will be the deciding area for this district 40 race.

Been in San Antonio and Dallas these past couple of Weeks just got back last night. Good to be back home! I see not much has changed on the political front. enews is still ranting about there boss and putting down there opponent in every way possible. I see La Joya re doing the school board election. I've started noticing more and more political yard signs dressing up the community. So not much has changed huh? You would think a person would leave outta town for a few weeks and return to something new, instead well its the same ol thing. But hey, the Cowboys extended Romo's contract, now thats some new and good news! Superbowl? I can happen. Go Cowboys. Oh well turning to more serious matters, Saenz-Gate still pending further details I see. The illusive 300 failed to show up at the kick off or maybe they were all taking either a smoke or bathroom break. Just a little humor there people, I'm sure people will start bickering about that comment? Oh well I'm sure Mr.Saenz gots his best people on that issue. But if I may be quite frank about his political signs, ONE WORD: RE-DO! I can already here the pundits blazing now! I would like to attend a political debate between Mr.Pena and Mr.Saenz.

Pena was an author of the bill, voted for it several times, received praise from Lance Armstrong and has fought for the issue here at home.

I think Pena has done well for this area and Saenz is just reaching.

Voting FOR or AGAINST BILLS tends to be either a KILLER or CHAMPIONED CAUSE. That being said, most politicians will tell you that most Bills carry so much wording, bylaws, mumbo jumbo, crap, excess and sometimes a politician doesnt quite see eye to eye with those who either write it or the wording in the bill. Now its freakin easy to misconstrue words and enews eddie's mouth piece, tends to take the bold face headlines rendition of so called news. Are they right? well somewhat. people like enews are NOTORIOUS for hanging people on the smallest insignificant wording an opponent may blurt out. Lets just say for argument's sake that Pena voted against cancer research, did anyone research this bill in its entirety? Can enews print the entire bill? For the most part, most bills arent even read by congressman. Trust me on that one. Congressman Rangel has repeadetly claimed that popular fact. So enews goes around trying to LYNCH POLITICAL OPPONENTS LOBBYING for there own. Eddie is no better than Aaron, but enews will make Eddie sound like a God, is it true, or is it because enews gets paid to write such campaign crap? I believe the latter being the honest truth. Comercials come on the tube daily raving about the latest "gut be Gone" "miracle hair growth gel" or the "thigh master" BUT DO THESE PRODUCTS REALLY WORK? HELL NO! BUT THAT DOESNT MEAN THE TV PROGRAMMING PAYING FOR THE COMMERCIAL IS GOING TO STOP. IT JUST MEANS THAT SOME SUCKER WILL BUY THAT CRAP OF BULL SOMETIME. well enews continues to digest through every orphis hoping some suckers will soon believe the crap they write.

enews next headline:
"Elvis Pressley is supporting Mr.Eddie Saenz"

I just find it confusing that if Pena voted against the cancer bill and now because it is election season he goes out to support it doesn't make much sense. Someone should ask Pena to explain his no vote.

So does this, sort of. Personally, out of thousands of votes that all the reps make, it's possible this happened

Eddie Saenz hired 9 eighteen wheeler trucks to block the entrance to Aaron Pena's kickoff. They tried to start a fight with the ECHO hotel staff and were finally scared off by the law enforcement officers at the representative's party.

Let's face it, Eddie Saenz is dirty and just like his trash blog E-News they will say and do anything to win. Low life's all of them.

Pena still had one of the best kickoffs.

Political Ring,

FYI,

just got back from one of the coffee shops in Pharr and the news is a citizen reported one of the deputy constables from PCT 2 Javier Hinojosa buying beer in his constable unit. is this the guy that just got busted a month ago with a DWI ? Looks like CHATO Alaniz has some questions to answer. I am trying to get the case #.

I don't care for either Pena or Saenz, because I'm 100% sure they don't give a rat's ass about me either, but is very funny how people get all preachy and judgmental when somebody gets arrested for drinking, and tries to cover the incident, hell I would do it too if I could its worth a try, anybody would, we all have done things we are not supossed to, and it amuses the hell out of me when people point fingers like they are little saints, hypocrites that's what we are, yeah including myself, I know I'm not perfect.

Eddie Saenz has a huge character flaw that is repeated over and over again. Why is character important? You and I are not trying to be "leaders". A leader should be someone beyond the ordinary and mundane, they should reflect the better parts ov ourselves, not the worst. Eddie Saenz is the ugly and dirty in all of us. I do not want him as my leader.

What Mr. Saenz needs to do is come out of the enews closet and denounce any afiliation with them. That might improve his image a tad. But being that Mr.Saenz has failed to do such a thing, leaves people thinking that the two are in fact afiliated. And we all know the muddy waters enews embelishes in.
