THE IMELDIFIC
INTERVIEW
Philippine Graphic
magazine (circa 1990)
“When you went to the
inner sanctum of my home, and you found shoes instead of skeletons, you should
have taken me a bit more seriously. This was Cinderella.”
By JOSE F. LACABA
Early this year I got a call from my publisher who said
Imelda Marcos was making herself available for an interview and would I be
willing to do it. This was before Imelda formally declared her presidential
candidacy. I had interviewed her twice before, in the bad old days prior to
martial law, when she was still First Lady of the land and I was a novato in
journalism, and I remembered waiting in the Malacañang Music Room for close to
two hours for an interviewee who seemed to think that coming in late for an
appointment with a neophyte reporter was the divinely mandated prerogative of a
powerful, beautiful woman. But now she was no longer the power and the beauty
she once was, and she had spent a few years in exile in New York (which is
presumably not governed by “Filipino time”), so I thought perhaps she had
learned to be considerate to the hoi polloi and to show respect for the rigors
of the clock.
Besides, whatever my personal
views on the subject, I had to confess that strictly from a
commercial-magazine-circulation point of view she was what’s known in news
parlance as hot copy: public curiosity in Imelda had not abated at the time,
and each issue of this magazine with her on the cover had been a newsstand
seller. And I thought there was one other thing in her favor: she was
self-assured and gutsy and foolhardly enough to face a potentially hostile
(though normally civil) interviewer, one who had enjoyed the hospitality of her
husband’s martial-law prisons and had had a brother killed by her husband’s
myrmidons.
The interview was set at nine on a
Sunday morning, and though I have a never-on-Sunday-morning rule because that’s
one of the few times I can catch up on my sleep, I agreed to be at the Westin
Philippine Plaza Hotel at nine. I was assured that she would be on time. I
should have known better, of course.
Shortly before nine I was at the
ground-floor lobby of the Plaza, along with a photographer, a stenographer, and
kibitzer Andy Cristobal Cruz, and we happened to arrive at the same time as
Jimmy Barbers, the former Manila police officer, who said he remembered the
articles I wrote for the Free Press before martial law (he probably kept a
dossier of them). He was now working with Imelda, and he was surprised we had
this appointment with her; he was certain they were going to Bulacan that
morning.
At about nine the Imeldific,
looking appropriately imeldific despite the years and the extra pounds, came
out of her room and into the lobby of her suite, and she was sorry, really
sorry, because there was this sudden invitation to address some fundamentalist
group somewhere in Bulacan and it was just impossible to turn down the
insistent invitation. Well, then, I said, could we just tag along and maybe
talk to her in her coaster on the way to Bulacan and back? Oh, no, no, she
softly exclaimed, horrified: “This is a fundamentalist group and I know you’re
a liberal and I don’t want you to get the wrong impression.” She probably
thought calling me a liberal would flatter me, but anyway—against my better
judgment—I agreed to reset the appointment to five p.m. that same day. I should
have known better, of course.
I went back to Quezon City, nearly
an hour’s drive away in Sunday’s light traffic, and went back to sleep. At
exactly five p.m. I was back at the Plaza, along with the photographer, the
stenographer, and kibitzer Andy Cristobal Cruz. Imelda Marcos, we were
informed, had not yet come back from Bulacan.
Being a masochist, I decided to
wait. My companions and I went down to the hotel’s coffeeshop, where an hour
later we got slapped with a bill of close to a thousand pesos for a few
sandwiches that Jollibee’s does better. Having paid the bill—it was now past
six p.m.—I decided it was time to call it a day, Imelda or no Imelda. Just as I
was about to rise from my seat, in rushed Sol Vanzi, the journalist who has
been serving as some kind of media liaison for Imelda since the former First
Lady’s return from exile. Sol said she had been paging us for the past 15
minutes because, good news, Imelda was back from her fundamentalist foray and
was ready for the interview. Sol and I got into journalism at about the same
time, so I didn’t have the heart to walk out on her and her boss. I went
quietly along, back to the Plaza suite, for the interview and for dinner with
Imelda Marcos.
For the next two hours, and all
through the dinner, Imelda treated us to her special brand of postmodernist
discourse—rambling, incoherent, nebulous, a stream of consciousness studded
with glittering generalities and coruscating catchphrases that had become
second nature after years of selective brain-picking. If one needed a
confirmation of Henry Adams’s observation that “practical politics consists in
ignoring facts,” this was it.
Yet her interweaving of reasonable
arguments with inspired inanities was also, at the same time, quite skillfully
done, and in the end one had to admit hers was a scintillating performance,
perversely fascinating, perversely impressive—windyfoggery of the highest
order. If one needed a confirmation of Marya Mannes’s observation that “a
candidate can have no greater advantage than muddled syntax,” this was it.
The interview was conducted in
January, but it took me quite a while to get this together because, sometime
after the interview, a daring young newscaster on Philippine television—a
novato in broadcast journalism named Patricia Evangelista—said on air,
immediately after Imelda got the red-carpet treatment in a television program
preceding the newscast: “We shouldn’t glorify criminals.”
Of course, the law states that a
person shall be presumed innocent until proven guilty, so it was understandable
that Patricia Evangelista should be forced to resign as a result of her rather
imprudent statement. Nevertheless, that statement has had a sobering effect on
local media, and as you may have noticed, most of the dailies have pointedly
ignored the presidential candidacy of the Imeldific, relegating her campaign to
short items on the inside pages, very often without photos. Which is the
cruelest punishment media can inflict on anyone in politics. “Politicians,” as
Auberon Waugh says, “can forgive almost anything in the way of abuse; they can
forgive subversion, revolution, being contradicted, exposed as liars, even
ridiculed, but they can never forgive being ignored.”
If you’re wondering why we have
chosen not to continue ignoring the Imeldific in this Season of Lent, let me
tell you the deconstructed version of the Parable of the Prodigal Son, as
narrated by a friend of mine named Ben Bautista. As you know, when the Prodigal
Son came home after making a shameful spectacle of himself abroad, his father
gave a feast in his honor. And the Other Son, who had never left home,
naturally complained: “Father, I have stayed by your side all this time, and
not once have you given a feast in my honor.” And the father put his arm around
the Other Son and took him aside and said, “Well, son, you know … some are
smarter than others.”
I don’t really know what the hell
that parable according to Ben Bautista has to do with the subject of this
article, but I had a good laugh when I heard it and I just can’t help repeating
it somewhere, sometime, and here and now seems as good a time as any.
Anyway, here, for all they’re
worth, are excerpts from the Imeldific Interview. Remember that this was
conducted before Imelda formally declared her candidacy. Some of the questions
are therefore dated. But the answers are timeless. Age cannot wither their
infinite goofy appeal.
You’ve been going around the country since you got back. How have
things been so far?
Wherever I go, I see thousands and
thousands and thousands of people. Before you can go anywhere, sometimes you
inch your way to.… The moment they know that you’re in the bus, it takes so
long.…. Like, for instance, in Cavite, it took us four and a half hours to go
three miles. And then we have to walk sometimes because people will go in front
of the bus. They want to shake hands, and they touch you, and they run after
you, the children. A very unusual thing. I am their mama. Ay, sabi ko, I was
not here for five years, and they were born when we were gone. Why is it I am
their mama? Like kanina, I was sitting there, and the children of those who
were in prayer would come in and kiss me. It was kind of eerie, you know.
How do you feel about all this? Is this what’s convincing you to run?
The situation is such and the cry
of desperation of the people is such that it looks like you have no choice. And
with what I have gone through—I was alone, I was widowed, I was orphaned,
facing the mightiest sword of justice, with only God and my conscience as my
witness—and yet the truth prevailed. And yet the greatest victory of my life
was during my deprived years in a foreign country. Not when I was in the midst
of power and wealth, but when I was completely deprived. So it gives me
strength and inspiration to say, if I made it in a foreign country, facing the
mightiest sword of justice, the most exacting and the almost perfected judicial
system of the world, and made it, how much more we Filipinos, here in our own
land. Parati kong sinasabi sa mga tao, kung nakaya ni Imelda sa banyagang lupa,
ano pa kaya dito sa ating inang bayan?
Strengthened by what I have gone
through, now I am intensely sensitive to any given human pain and suffering. I
am practically skinless in body and spirit. I cannot turn my back to anyone who
suffers.
But your critics are going to say that you had, how many years?—20
years—and what were you able to do in the time when you had the power and the
capability to change the situation?
When I was governor of Metro
Manila, I made very good use of my time. This Cultural Center complex alone,
the Light Rail Transit, basic services, water, power, food, shelter, clothing,
medical service, employment, housing—all of these things. The Cultural Center
to give us not only identity, pride and dignity but to ensure the integrity and
wholeness of our people.
People have been talking of a New
World Order since last year. But I talked about the New Human Order in 1974,
when I presented to the United Nations a New Human Order. They kept talking for
three decades of a new international economic order. But the demand of the
world and humanity was not money, it was a New Human Order.
Will you refresh our memory? What did this New Human Order consist of?
The New Human Order was to bring
about the wholeness and integrity of the human being in body, mind and spirit.
To feed the body, as I’ve always said, with what is good, and to make it
healthy, and to give the mind education, so that it would be literate, and then
feed the body with beauty, to give it dignity, or love.
You know, they keep hitting me all
the time, because I talk of beauty. And yet that is our role as women in our
cultural genesis: Maganda. The role of woman is to be Maganda, in body, mind
and spirit. And when I talk about Maganda, it is not only the senses—beauty of
music, the sound, the audio, the visual, the olfactory, the gustatory, the
tactile—but I talk about it in an ideological dimension, which is: Beauty is
harmony, discipline and order. And it has a theological dimension, of beauty,
which is God, and love. And peace is made real in what is beautiful. And after,
the reach for money and power is the reach for beauty, because God and love are
made real in what is beautiful. By divine destiny and will, my first program
was the Cultural Center of the Philippines, if you will remember. But I was
viciously vilified and maligned. In fact, the Free Press had …
I think I wrote that article.
… “Parthenon or Pantheon” …
Ah, that one was Nick Joaquin’s.
Marie Antoinette. Why, there were
people going hungry! And there were slums! Why build this monstrous edifice
when people could not afford it?
You see, when Marcos became
President, I asked him, “Ferdinand, now that you are President, what is my role
as your First Lady?” He said to me, “Now that I am President, as father I will
build a strong house for the Filipino people. You, as the mother, make it a home.”
So I reflected: What makes a home? Love. What is love when made real? Beauty.
What are the beautiful songs, dances, costumes, traditions, values that we have
as a people? Culture. And also at the same time we had an identity crisis. We
lost our identity after 400 years of colonial masters. We had to peel off the
mask and say, “Hi, world, I have a face too. And it’s a beautiful face. It’s
not American, it’s not Chinese, it’s not Japanese, it’s not Spanish, but it is
Filipino. It’s a beautiful face.”
When we started seeing our dances,
our music, our poetry, we said: Aba, maganda pala tayong tao, a. We started
having pride, identity. Ano ang Pilipino? Nakabarong, nakaterno ang mga babae,
nakamalong, ang gaganda ng mga costume. Aba. We started having not only pride
and dignity, what was godly in us surfaced, what was sacred in us surfaced.
That gave us dignity as human beings. So the Cultural Center of the Philippines
gave an invaluable service to the Filipino people. It was the sanctuary of the
Filipino soul and monument of the Filipino spirit. And why am I so
controversial?
Yah, why?
At this time, they’re always
saying, in the world I am one of the most controversial. They ask who is the
most, what do you call this, known woman in the world? And everybody—far ahead,
they would say: Imelda. They don’t go anymore: Marcos and all of that. So we
have an identity already. We have an identity. You see, all my life, I was then
compromising with God, beauty and love.
Okay, that was then, this is now. Now Mr. Marcos is not around. When
you say the situation leaves you no choice, you mean it leaves you no choice
but to run for the presidency, to be master of the house, head of the house,
rather than…?
Not to master. On the contrary:
the servant of the house. Because everything comes in pairs. I don’t look at it
as a master. I always said when I was first First Lady, the problem with First
Lady, I was both star and slave. Star na lang ba pirme? She rides in a
limousine, she wears a terno, she has to wear a gown, she has to be with kings
and jetsetters and all of these big-deal guys, you know. But they did not see
the other side of Imelda. That I was slaving, I did not sleep, I worked night
and day. I had very little sleep because I was also slave.
You see, in this world, everything
comes in pairs—black and white, man and woman, night and day, yin and yang. And
it is a balancing act. And as a mother it is worse. And as a woman it is worse.
The mother’s role is the beginning of all evils, because you attend not only to
the material needs, but also you attend to and you nurture also the inner, the
spiritual needs of man: love. Remember, when even the Lord said, “Call my
mother blessed because she is the instrument in my humanity,” and the angels
rebelled. Mothers are hard to understand, women are hard to understand, because
we are very ambivalent. We can be spiritual, or we are abstract one moment and
we are so real the other moment.
ANDY CRUZ: Pag bumibiyahe kayo sa probinsiya, what do you expect? Ano
ang salubong sa inyo?
I have been in politics, on the
national scene, since ’59, when Marcos ran for the Senate. But—even at the
height of the Marcoses’ power—it was never this way, such overwhelming
reception that we get. And I suppose, the reason for that is, they know what is
in my heart. I suppose they know the purity of my vision and the selflessness
of my commitment.
You think it’s not partly out of curiosity that people come, because
you’ve become a world-class celebrity?
Partly. They want to find out how
much you have deteriorated, or improved, or whatever. You know. There’s all of
that combined.
Tell me about life in exile.
You know, it was painful. It was
deprivation of dignity, suffering, the losses, the loss of loved ones,
separated from your children and your family and your country, completely
deprived of even freedom to survive, when you were holding a parole visa, and
every so often you would be pictured with a number, fingerprinted like a
criminal in a foreign country, continuously doing that. Yes, these were
painful, these were humiliating. But the most difficult was, you felt like a
tree that had been transplanted, that had been uprooted, that could not even
grow leaves on the branches to give shade to your fellowmen. That for me was
the most frustrating, the most painful of all.
What sustained you in all that?
God and my conscience. They said I
was ugly. They put fangs in my mouth and horns in my head, said I was a pig.
And I looked at myself, and I looked at what I did. I built the Cultural Center
of the Philippines, I built the Heart Center, I built the Light Rail Transit, I
made Manila clean, had Metro Aides, gave not only employment but dignity to
people. I said, now the world may tell me that I am bad, but in my heart I know
I have a pure vision, and I gave it with dedication and selflessness, and I was
sure that if I died any moment I could say to the Lord: “Lord, this is what you
gave me, and this is what I’ve made of my life.” And I am sure he would give me
a smile. For after all you were born alone, and you will die alone. Even if the
whole world is against you, but if you can live with yourself and with your
creator, what more do you want?
CRUZ: Ma’am, ang una kong artikulo sa bagong Graphic when it came out
was about Kabisig. Inexpose ni Bobby Tañada sa diyaryo, sabi ni Bobby Tañada:
Hindi original ’yan.
All I have to say is, the highest
compliment, the flattery, is to be able to say: Ay, ginaya tayo. How wonderful!
(Laughs) I see so many echoes, I hear
so many echoes. But it’s funny. I was always criticized because I was
frivolous, because I sang, I danced. It was part of my wholeness. A heart that
dreamed and a body that could move with grace—my God, it’s part of your
wholeness, the integrity of your wholeness. It brings fulfillment and happiness.
Nakakatawa, e. Kaya ang sabi ko sa editorial board of Washington Times and Wall
Street Journal, when they were interviewing me, they talked to me about the
shoes, I said, “You know, when you went to the inner sanctum of my home, and
you found shoes instead of skeletons, you should have taken me a bit more
seriously. This was Cinderella.”
That was 3,000 Cinderellas. Did you really have 3,000 pairs of shoes?
I understand it went down to
1,000. I don’t know where the other 2,000 went. Those shoes symbolized the
generosity of the Filipino people. And also they showed that I was a
responsible First Lady trying to promote Philippine products. You know, shoes
were never my weakness, that’s for sure. But I had a responsibility as First
Lady and governor of Metro Manila, because one of cities in Manila is Marikina.
We wanted to export more shoes from the Philippines. So from one million pairs,
we were able to bring out more than 70 million pairs. Of course, every time
there was a shoe fair, every shoe factory would give you two, three, a dozen or
so pairs, in the hope that you would promote for them and in grateful
appreciation for promoting them. You know, these are the hazards of … Iba iyong
aking role.
CRUZ: Akala namin, isosoli na, hindi ba? Noong ipinamigay n’yo sa DZRH…
Noong malaman nila na ’yong mga
shoes ko, miski sa America, ipinagbibili ng 10,000 dollars each, for charity
causes, that they were ready to buy all these 3,000 pairs of shoes, then
suddenly they said wala daw shoes. Hindi daw ibibigay. Kasi sabi ko, ibibigay
ko sa Pinatubo.
The government is using the
resources of government to destroy the Marcoses, to make them victims of
injustice. But the ultimate victims of injustice are the poor. That money
should be given to the people instead of being used for negative things.
Like the paintings that were here
already in the Metropolitan Museum, that they sold. Anong klase ito? They sold
it and auctioned it for 15 million, and that collection could be more than a
billion dollars. There was a Raphael, there was a Botticelli, there was a
Michelangelo, there was a Guardi—ay naku! Filippino Lippi—wala niyan maski sa
Metropolitan Museum ng America. Titian. Tintoretto. This is 73 paintings.
Ipinagbili! Can you imagine? There could have been two, three billion easily.
Dollars. We sold it for 15 million pesos.
That’s government property?
That is Marcos property that was
donated. The government did not have this money. The buildings in New York,
where did they go? We didn’t get a cent for that. One of them could have been
sold for half a billion, or two billion now. We have four buildings, half a
billion each. We did not even get 2,000 dollars. There was the silver, the
biggest silver collection in the world. They sold it for five million dollars.
But then the critics will say that on a President’s salary Mr. Marcos
could not have afforded all of these things.
He had his own money. You know,
when they counted the assets of Marcos, they counted something like two
trillion 300 billion pesos. You know why I am wearing this ring? It is not only
a little ostentatious—it is
ostentatious. And this was my engagement ring when we got married. Ferdinand
was not a poor man even then, and this was ’54, thirty-seven years ago.
You see, when the Breton Woods
Agreement came into force in 1957, three years after Marcos and I got married,
he started buying gold because the United States came out already of the gold
standard. And they were selling gold at 35. So, whatever cash he had, he
started buying gold.
Ferdinand and I got married in
’54. And the Breton Woods Agreement was in force in ’57. Now I remember, my
first trip to the United States, after he became President, was to the Federal
Reserve Board, and the head of that was Arthur Burns. He was the chairman of
the board. William “Bill” Blair was the one who arranged my going to the
Federal Reserve, and the reason for that was because we had no money in the
coffers of the government. It was empty. And we wanted to sell gold. And the
answer to me of Arthur Burns then was that they could not buy gold because they
were selling gold, because of the Breton Woods Agreement of ’57. This was ’66,
’67.
But talagang may estrelya sa ulo
si Marcos. He bought gold at 32 per ounce when he proclaimed martial law in
’72.
Where did Marcos get all his gold?
There was a little which they
found and divided among the guerrilla group, and then in 1945, when he went to
the US for the veterans’ foundation, his comrades asked him to sell this. From
then on he went into gold trading, and he was lucky.
You know when Ferdinand and I got
married he brought me to his house, and then I was surprised, there was worth
P30 million pesos nakatambak doon sa bahay, inaamag. Sabi ko, “What are you
going to with that? If you deposit that…” He said, “No, I want to become
President.” I said, “What is the relation?” He said, “I can confront any kind
of problem but not envy. Pagka malaman nila na marami akong pera, maiinggit
sila sa akin.”
The Cultural Center, the Heart
Center, the Lung Center—hindi naman ito appropriated by government. I was the
one spending Marcos money.
I thought you were getting donations from businessmen for these
centers.
That kind of money—who will give
that? This hotel costs 700 million. When this was made, the exchange was 6-1,
and they sold it only for 650 million dollars. I reclaimed every bit of this
place, and now they will not even allow me to stay here. They are going to
evict me. But the nice part of it is that friends come in. They feel that I
must live in some kind of comfort and dignity. After all, I built this hotel.
The rumor is you are the real owner of this hotel.
I could own this if they would
defreeze all my assets. This does not belong to them. Kaya taas ang noo at
ilong ko rito. Wala kaming kinurakot. This whole complex was primed by the
Marcos wealth, which is really a legend. You know why he bought the buildings
in New York? Because he wanted the Philippines to be in the midst of free
enterprise. See, we were going to align ourselves with free enterprise. He was
going to put it in the center, New York.
He had a global vision for the
country. The poor guy was so maligned. Only, he was so smart, he was a legend.
CRUZ: Do you mind a personal question?
Sure.
CRUZ: When do you miss him most?
This is embarrassing to say, but
now I’ve never had Ferdinand more with me than when he was alive. I miss, sure,
his presence. I miss his presence but I think of him more now. Especially when
I have to make decisions, I think of him much, much more now. I miss his
presence, but he is very real to me, much more real than ever before. He is
more with me than when he was alive.
When you make decisions, do you think first of how Ferdinand would
decide?
Yah. All the time. I always do
that.
Isn’t it time you moved out of Ferdinand’s shadow? You’re Imelda now,
you’re…
No, because he enriched my life,
he made me whole. Now I am Imelda, I am Ferdinand and Imelda too. I’m alone,
and at the same time… For instance, whenever I made decisions, he always said
to me, “When you make a decision, make a decision that is good for all, not
just good for one, but for all.” So every time I make a decision, I think of
this. Ako naman, mula sa umpisa, basta meron akong vision, basta alam kong
ako’y tama, para akong pison—tuloy-tuloy. Miski na ako pukpukin dito, basta ang
commitment ko, nandodo’n. Kamukha noong people would say, “Mrs. Marcos, you are
so committed to beauty, love, and God. Isn’t that expensive?” Sabi ko, “In a
material world where everything is quantifiable, and you are committed to
beauty, love and God, which are unquantifiable, you are frivolous, you are
extravagant, you are excessive.” Because when you say God is 10 million worth,
or I love you 10 percent, or he’s 16 percent beautiful, then they would say,
“Mrs. Marcos, your standard for beauty is expensive.” I would say, “It takes a
lot more discipline to look good than ugly, and it takes a lot, lot more
discipline to even look presentable when you have reached 62.” So I say, beauty
is expensive.
Kaya ako, kung sabihin nilang
pangit ako, tumitingin ako sa salamin. Hindi naman ako pangit. They tell me I
have horns. I look in the mirror. I have no horns. You are born alone, and if
they don’t like you what can you do? I’m not running a popularity contest. I
just go ahead.
Did you read this recent editorial saying: “Imelda, tama na”?
Tama nang tulungan ang mga tao?
Tama nang magmahal sa kapwa? Bakit, sila lang ba ang may karapatang magmahal sa
kapwa? Sila lang ang may karapatang tumulong at magbigay-saklolo sa bayan? Ito
ay karapatan ng bawat isa. Everybody should be given the right to give, to care
and to love, to serve, to help. You know, the opposite of love is selfishness,
not hate. I am selfless because I am a believer that the only things you keep
in life are those that you give away. And I’ve noticed it. I have been living
practically on welfare. When we arrived, we were deprived of everything—our
valuables, our things, including our faces, our honor. The whole world
descended in a conspiracy against the Marcoses. Now they will stop me to serve
my country, to serve my people, to offer what I have, to bring it to a vision
of greatness.
Well, people look at you and they wouldn’t think you’re living on
welfare.
This is the beauty of it all. They
can rob you of everything, but they cannot rob you of friends who respect you
and appreciate you and would like to offer you help. One of the most wonderful
things that happened to me is that I knew who my friends were. My life is a
life of extremes. I lived a very charmed life, a fairy tale. First Lady for 20
years. Corridors of power. I lived in palaces and all that. Then suddenly
everything went down. I saw real people, and I am so glad I got to see the
other side of the coin. Now, nobody can tell me about suffering, about
deprivation, humiliation. I have been through all of that.
We faced the most exact, the most
perfected, the mightiest judicial system in the world, and I was alone. Even
the Bible says there is a special place for oppressed widows and orphans, and I
was both. That was the reason why Ferdinand opted to die. He thought that by
dying they would not touch me anymore. But no, three hours later they were…
It was also our fault. Our
information system was very inadequate, because they could not articulate the
vision, the ideology that Marcos has. There were not enough people who could
explain it to the world. Nobody saw his vision, nobody saw his ideology, the
policies of Marcos. They were not explained.
You know, ako, wala akong
ambition. I’m sure, if I want to be comfortable, I have my passport and I’m
sure Mrs. Aquino would give me a royal send-off. I can go home, I can get out.
I don’t need this. I need this like a hole in the head. If I have a few million
dollars, I’d be very happy. And I have Doris Duke—I can use any of her homes, any
of her planes, and I can live high if I want. I don’t need this. I need this
like a hole in the head.
So why do you want a hole in the head?
Because it has to be done.
Somebody’s got to do it. Yes, somebody’s got to do it. This is the only country
that I have. It’s a matter of survival. G
