THE FAIRY KING DOES HIS THING

THE FAIRY KING DOES HIS THING

So what? I did not listen to or watch anything about the fantasy style coronation of our Fearless Leader. Not even the critics did I give ear to today.

I did however read the headlines on a few news sites to find out if there had been any unexpected happenings of note. Like maybe Condi forgetting herself and exclaiming, "Oh Daddy!" and planting a big wet one on the Imperial kisser. That would have been interesting.

Or maybe if a new Secret Service guy mistook Gonzalez's tan complexion and shifty eyes for those of a would be terrorist and zapped the Attorney General with a stun gun, acting upon the better safe than sorry principle, as endorsed by Mr. Gonzalez. That would have been a cheery human interest story.

Or if some one had spiked the near beer with LSD and the President had suddenly felt a need to speak the absolute truth. No telling what he might reveal before Cheney realizes something is amiss with the puppet and has the Secret Service wrestle the President to the floor (for his own safety) and carry him to the White House for a Thorazine drip. That would have been real news.

Maybe there is hope for the unexpected yet. After all the coronation balls, perhaps it will be discovered that one of the Royal Twins spent the night with a 76 year old, big time, corporate supporter and contributor. Daddy's hopping Texas mad but finds himself in a political/moral dilemma he's not equipped to handle. Condi and Gonzalez determine that it's OK to call air strikes on any media outlet that runs the story. Gonzalez becomes the first Attorney General to serve as a supreme court justice during his term as Attorney General.

But, sadly, none of that has happened, so far. So, who cares. The Fairy King throws a god awful expensive party for himself , happily paid for by the other Royals, the corporate persons and their directors. A huge glitzy "We Got the World by the Balls" ball. A well planned, carefully choreographed, and orchestrated ritual of Imperial Ascension. So what?

Most of the world mourns to see this power obsessed little man with his destructive dreams being elevated to such power. The world is watching and old specter rising on the skyline again.

I have no desire to watch this celebration of the ghouls.
