King George Tantrum Test
Take the following test to see if King George is throwing a closed-door tantrum. Again:
1. Was or is King George and Queen Tony in yet another bad place with their so-called voting public? (i.e. breeches of Justice, breaking of laws, murdering of innocent people in the middle east...)
2. Did this bad public opinion begin to interrupt the King and Queen's strategy to continue the illegal war in Iraq, or to create fresh, new wars in, say, Iran?
3. Did a new sense of urgency, scandal, emergency or drama suddenly appear on the news? (i.e. an Iranian hostage throwback, circa 1980's — the one used to smear Jimmy Carter)
4. Is the entire thing rather predictable, boring, and seemingly meant to entertain and sway the illiterate primetime television bourgeosie?
If you've answered 'yes' to one or more of the preceding questions, brace yourself, we're probably in for another c-o-i-n-c-i-d-e-n-c-e (see: Gore Vidal, Perpetual War for Perpetual Peace).
Vive le Resistance.

"the illiterate primetime television bourgeosie"
This reminds me of a beautiful Bill Hicks ('god' rest his soul) moment..."Sit down, shut up, watch American Gladiators. You are free to do as we tell you!".
And I love 'Queen Tony'. He so is.
