Triumph of the Idea
-First winner who is wholly our guy!
-So he says and I do in part believe him.
-Just in part? I didn’t work and contribute for “in part.”
-Ever see a World War Two propaganda film? Everything peachy and all the actors sparkled.
-We won didn’t we, then and now?
-Uh huh. Back then all the noble ideas returned to
business as usual.
-Are you implying...?
-Now that he’s in office, they’ll be leaning on him
from everywhere.
-To be expected, but there’s a core of ideas
he stands for with us!
-His God is money, not ideas.
-Are you saying that he just said these things to...?
-That he’s lying? Not really, I think he believes what
he says when he’s saying it. On that instant that is.
-Wow! I’m high as a kite and you drag me into the mud!
Well I'm going on believing! And you’re just a cynic.
-Enjoy yourself! Be my guest! And cynic? Time always tells
if the cynic is a fool or a realist.
-I’m betting fool!
-Let’s talk when the rosy glow wears off. Might be
differences with him that’ll have to be compromised.
-No compromise! Period!
-As you wish.
