Champions (very FEW in Real Life) vs. Tyrants - Princes and Princesses - Dukes and Duchesses -
Marquises and Marquisses - Earls and Early Birds -
Counts and No-Accounts and Countesses -
Knights Templar and Knights Temporary -
Rooks that are Castles and Rooks that are Crows, and Rooks that are Crooks (CROOKED ROOKS)
and Cooked Books -

Like CHESS - LIFE is but a Mirror of this Archaic Regal Game:
National Interests - International Interests - Ambassadors - Embassies - Envoys -
Wars - Famines - Pestilence - LOSSES -
GAINS (few and far between) -
Prevarications - LIES - Corruption -
Coups - Coup d'e'tas - Coup de Gra'ces - Coup de Mains - Coup de Theatres - Coup d' oeils -
Coup de Foudres - a sudden overwhelming feeling of LOVE -
never enough of these!

Patty, my love and favorite seer, says that we are looking at a probable fool's mate, King tips down, because of an unforeseen vulnerability, within the first six months, leaving a weak King-Side Bishop elevated to Kingship and thereafter subjected to the smooth manipulations of the Black Queen and her King-Side Rook while Black Pawns run rampant as distractions on a chaos board.
This is one (rare) time when I pray that my Patty is wrong.
And nothing ever changes, except for one thing, some or most of these pawns are either willing, uninformed, lazy or stupid, and don't give a darn about their democracy, don't stand up for that, which they fight for in other places. In the old times, the nights templars where the only ones with power and weapons, it took hundreds of years and blood, for America the land of the free, to evolve, I feel with your most incisive writing Tom, you question that freedom, is in abayance. I enjoyed, your layout and your progression to the ending, poetry indeed! Jasmin Horst
With the Obama's we have "Hope" that the things that have destroyed the middle class in America will slowly be rebuilt... but we must be patient; afterall, it took 8 years to allow America to head for the tank.
I would be interested in knowing if anyone is still talking about treason charges against Cheney, Rumsfeld and Wulfowicz?
I'm not a politically-inclined person. Everything I know of politics is from my own hunches and intuition. You have done a wonderful work in defining the many levels of government structure.
