The People's Cube - Political Satire

Comrades!

Last night after a filling supper of crawfish bisque, polar bear steak - rare of course...(apologies to Comrade Polar Bear), Blue Whale stew, some Gourmet Swedish meatball Hot Pockets, some vintage wine and vodka, and of course some Chocolate Moose, served by some thankful proles, I finally settled down for an evening watching some soon to be non-persons trying to defend John McCain from that bastion of truth, the NY Times, but faded out to sleep.

Comrades, I had a dream!

A vision if you will. I dreamed that Comrade McCain, Dem Arizona, after a reasonably civil campaign (he is one of us you know...or so he sees himself...) eventually loses to the Glorious Leader, Hope and Change. A short period of time elapses, enough to draw off suspicion, when a tragic, but "accidental" release of "biogas" that is now being used to heat the Supreme Court thanks to the wise counsel of the Rev. Gore, overcame Justices Roberts, Scalia, and Thomas, who had gathered to write yet another of their reactionary imperialist decisions meant to prevent the use of infants to produce stem cells for cosmetic surgery. A few days pass, long enough to bury these "justices." Hope and Change has now submitted Nancy, Bill Clinton, and Cynthia McKinney to serve as Justices.

I know, this is a perfectly normal and rather mundane dream so far. But this is when it gets interesting. While we have of course made great gains in the Congress, Comrade McCain still leads a substantial number of rethuglican neo-nazis that survived the election. These thugs still hold enough seats to try and block our esteemed, imminently qualified judicial nominees. We then put the "nuclear option" to vote to overcome these irredeemable thugs. Comrade McCain, in a last futile effort to play the "moderate," attempts to create yet another "Gang of 14."

Comrades, we accede to his demands! Yes, we create the Gang of 14, only this time, the gang is even more inclusive!

I Have a Dream!
The Gang of 14 (and more to come!)

I Did it Che Way!

And now, the end is near;
And so they face the final curtain.
My friend, I'll say "keep clear,"
I'll prosecute the case, it's now curtains.

I've lived a life thats full.
I've bought and sold evry highway;
And more, much more than this,
I did it Che way.

Regrets, Ive had a few;
But then again, too few to mention.
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without mercy.

I planned each charred corpse;
Each careful step along the byway,
But more, much more than this,
I did it Che way.

Yes, there were times, Im sure you knew
When I bit off more than I could chew.
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I denied it all and blamed Bush.
I faced the wall but didn't fall;
And did it Che way.

I've lusted, Ive cheated and lied.
I've had my swill; my share of looting.
And now, as opponents die,
I find it all so amusing.

To think I did all that;
And may I say - not in a shy way,
No, oh no not me,
I did it Che way.

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not carefull, his neck in a knot.
I said the things, the Party needs;
And not the words of one who bleeds.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it Che way!

I think you are on to something, Commissar. I propose we refer to Messiah Obama as "Prez Hopenchange" from now on. That has a nice ring to it.

Glorious song, too, by the way.

*sniff sniff sniffle* That was beautiful Comrade. Just beautiful!

Commissar Pupovich, you have truly exhibited the Audacity Of Hope!

Thank you so much comrades! President Hope 'N Change will fulfill our dreams.

I have a dream, that one day, ThoughtCriminal's of every shape, color, species, and gender will be rounded up and interned with their former rethuglican masters!

I have a dream!

I have a dream that all the little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by their achievements, their learning, their skills, but by the PeoplesMath™ that will make them all equal.

I have a dream today.

Are you sure they weren't... well, you do seem to have a reputation for... never mind.

I hesitated mentioning that Premier for fear that someone would misconstrue this, and as usual I was correct. But I am a strong believer in open disclosure of the truth. I have always been a strong supporter of the truth, the current truth, and nothing but, just as I support Hope "N Change.

Mr, Obama, why is it you remind me of another candidate? Weren't you the President of Mystic Knights of the Sea Lodge? I understand you had quite a record there. Yes, it was you! President Amos Obama!

I have a dream that one day even the state of Louisiana, a state sweltering with the heat of global warming caused by Bush, sweltering with the heat of oppressive neo-con militarism, will be transformed into an oasis of fHope and Change.

I have a dream.

You're the one who made the cookies? Send me free Famous Amos cookies!

Not exactly the Amos I was talking about. Did they not teach you in the skools about President Amos and Vice President Andy?

No, but they taught me how to hate myself and everyone else like me. Does that count?

And do I still get cookies?

Yes, everytime a WASP completes a satisfactory session of self-cristism and feels sufficently guily, he gets a cookie.

And a slap to the back of the head for positive reinforcement.

Yay cookies!

Should self-criticism and guilt be limited to WASP's? No. For even within otherwise progressive peoples and cultures, there are those who commit ThoughtCrime™ or fail to fulfill various 5 Year Plans etc.
