The explanation for the slow response of the evacuation of New Orleans seems to
focus on how they had foreseen and had plans for the disaster of a hurricane
and in the event a levy gave way and flooded the city. What was unimaginable and therefore unplanned for to this point was what if both of them happened at the same time?
Just moments ago it was announced that Chief Justice
Rehnquist has died. My dear friend, Hank
Wesley Kissenger and I were discussing the new vacancy. I would be very interested to see retired
Senator Fred Thompson get the nod. With
the retirement of Justice O’Connor, there were no remaining justices that have
held any political office. The week
leading up to the Roberts nomination I read a lot of speculation and armchair recommendations,
and one thing I saw a lot of constitutional scholars agreed upon were the
benefits of having a political voice on the bench. Hank suggested a real outsider, someone with
no experience whatsoever, a real judge of the people. He of course nominated himself. This began me thinking along the lines of the
unimaginable. Although it definitely would
be considered a disaster of imense proportions if that happened, it is still something that
could be planned for, but, so as not to be caught like the poor citizens of New Orleans, we have to
be able to prepare for the unimaginable.
Just try to unimagine this:
Karl Rove, in a dream is anointed Pope by the ghosts of
Richard Nixon and Ronald Regan. Upon his
awaking he puts to work his power of infallibility. He convinces W that the
best way to move the Roberts nomination through AND to keep Hillary out of the
White House is to nominate Bubba Clinton as the new chief justice of the
Supreme Court. Both nominations sail
through the Senate. Karl knows the
country will never let one couple control two branches of government. His plan backfires 2 weeks before the 2008
November election when Jeb comes out of the closet and Hillary wins by a
landslide. The Billary duo is so successful,
the democrats win back the house and the senate in 2010 and in an unprecedented
move, house democrats elect junior representative Chelsea Clinton speaker of
the house. The American hattrick. The United States of America has it’s
first royal family. Hee Haw meets
American Idol. Don’t say you weren’t warned!
