News Flash: Emperor Got Clothes
It
is time to admit that the emperor does in fact have clothes. They don’t
actually fit, but they are apparently his, since all his clothes are similarly
ill-fitting.
What
the emperor does not have are brains, empathy, human emotions, common sense,
business sense (other than recognizing that there are millions of suckers just
waiting for the next excuse to send him what’s left of their hard-earned
dollars, which are barely enough to live off of thanks to the lack of a living
wage for so many, which in turn is thanks to the policies of the emperor’s political party), or
the ability to stop breaking laws.
As
an aside, a friend asked me the other day, “Do you know how long it took Hitler
to seize complete control over Germany’s democracy?” I said I thought it was
pretty fast, but did not know for sure. He replied, “Once he became chancellor, it took 52 days.”
For
the record, in case you are one of the many who are attempting to tune out all
the insanity and tsunami of fascism wafting over this country of ours, today is
day eight and our little fascist is going for the record.
Freak
out…
I
mean, Peace Out.
No
I don’t.
This has been your Paying Attention™ Fraught
For The Day. We’re in some deep shit.
