THE MADNESS OF KING GEORGE
King George long ago abolished democracy in favor of far-right theocracy. His hench-man, Herr Karl, the power broker behind the throne, had ruled with an iron fist to do the bidding of the corporations bent on ruling the whole world, all the while allowing King George to think he was in charge.
But when the King’s own intelligence commission told him he was wrong for waging an illegal war, King George, having learned a thing or two from Stalin, purged the dissenters. He told his frightened masses the Intelligence specialists and educated writers were enemies of the state: islamo-fascist appeasers and had them ‘water-boarded’ in Uzbekistan – a kingdom far, far away.
The corporations which put King George on the throne did not sit by idly. They used a worldwide news empire to misinform, and created voting machines as a fail-safe guarantor for the King to retain power in 2008.
But all the while, the King didn’t even notice he was going mad. The endless lies had taken a toll on his ability to see the truth. He believed the world loved him and wanted their countries rebuilt by Haliburton and filled with Wall-Marts and McDonalds. This, of course, was far from the truth, and led to the king engaging in many wars far and wide, which profited the Corporations.
Some years later, just like the King and his theocons had once believed, Christ actually returned. Jesus did not like what had become of his planet and let out a great cry. But it was for naught. King George had the backing of the Corporations. Jesus had only God.
King George eventually understood his madness and visited Jesus in his cell at Guantanamo for forgiveness. Christ forgave King George, but told him he didn’t like the water-boarding part because it made him forget what he came back for. He also said he’d die for a good pair of Birkenstocks.
