Wednesday had been a bad day for the author of this blog, having had way too many Bushwhackers - and other libations - at the local watering hole Tuesday night. There simply weren't enough brain cells functioning to even attempt writing a chapter.
Cruzan Vanilla & Cokes, peapickers, shots of some kind of Banana liqueur, a few White Russians, and the first few chugs of beer in his entire 63 years of life, caused some definite impairities, resulting in a complete meltdown.
On Thursday, April 24, 2008, a dramatic event unfolded in Paris: leaders of an obscure Muslim band of insurgents emerged publicly for the first time, proclaiming their confidence in the new interim leadership of the United States of America. This radical group had purportedly claimed responsibility for over a dozen attacks on U.S. overseas facilities in recent years. They had been among the most vocal critics of the Bush administration, and had joined in well-publicized demonstrations where Bush had been burned in effigy. In the fall of 2006, resentment against the U.S.A. heated up worldwide. The President of Iran challenged Geroge W. Bush to a public debate, which Bush's handlers wisely declined (Bush's dullardly dim-wittedness would have been no match for this savvy, intelligent leader). Then, at a United Nations global conference, Venuzuelean President Caesar Chevaz had called Bush 'the Devil", inflaming rousing anti-Bush sentiment worldwide. Even American pollsters were feverishly surprised at the growing change of public opinion. When the Pope made disparaging remarks about Islam, he was forced to apologize as public rage flamed fires of threats that the Papal reign and the American reign of terror would be destroyed. On January 18, 2008, the day after O.U.T.R.A.G.E. had brought down the United States government, massive celebrations took place all over the world. Clearly, the 'evil empire' George W. Bush had created was resented, as were the rich Americans who snubbed their collective noses at the rest of the world. The days of American arrogance, gluttony, hubris, avarice and dominance were over; the rest of the world wanted to share in America's rich bounty, and no longer would the United States be a place where families had two or three new cars in their garages; where women draped themselves in jewelry; where businessmen entertained clients at $600 lunches; where sumptuous mansions with twelve bathrooms were so commonplace.
Worldwide, there was an undercurrent of resentment. For years, the British monarchy and its self-imposed lifestyle of extravagant wealth had been challenged; ever since the tragic death of Princess Diana British citizens were calling for the end of the monarchy. Now, such sentiment had escalated to the point where the Royal Family was actualy beginning to acquiesce by giving much of its holdings back to the commonwealth. Attacks had been mounted on ostentatious wealth in Hong Kong, Malaysia, France, Italy, and even China. But nowhere was it more prevalent than in the U.S.A. Even American citizens of average means were finally up in arms over the decadance of the wealthy, the powerful, and the influential. That chain of events is what had stirred the humble beginnings of O.U.T.R.A.G.E. Now this revolutionary, murderous band of hi-tech rebels was becoming a beacon of hope and equality for all Americans, regardless of financial status, family heritage, political dynasty, or influential status. O.U.T.R.A.G.E. was the catalyst for change; although it would take time and much energy, the United States of American was slowly becoming a true democracy wherein the government would be governed by the people instead of being governed by those who were elected to serve the people. Self-indulgence and the lust for power had ruined the Republic; change was imminent. 'Average' citizens had rose from the couch, put down the remote, and joined the 'Rebellion of '08' to have their country returned to them. With proper administration and common-sense enlightenment, the United States could rise from the ashes of the last hundred days and once again become the greatest nation on Earth. Not only would American citizens have to overwhelmingly join the crusade; the whole world would have to accept the changes.
