Santa Anna traded Texas off to save his sorry butt from Texian firing squad or worse ,after he was caught in a womans dress trying to escape the fight at San Jacinto....We excepted his offer! God Bless Texas and remember the Alamo!

Sam Houston was never going to put Santa Anna in front of a firing squad. History tells us that was *never* the intention of Sam Houston, and so that would not have happened in any case. You see..., Santa Anna was about 100 times more valuable *alive* than he *ever* would have been “dead” — because Santa Anna was *also* President of Mexico and had the authority to conclude such an agreement — a very good reason to keep him alive... LOL...
