The Coronation of King George
by Anthony Wade

December 17, 2005

It became official today; President Bush named himself King of the United States. Granted those of us who follow this administration have seen Bush act as if he was a king and not an elected representative for the past five years but finally today Bush all but came out and said it.

The issue at hand is the wiretapping of US citizens without judicial oversight. In this country that is a felony and an impeachable offense. Essentially, the president does not have absolute power in this country. He is but one part of the government and is supposed to be “checked” and “balanced” by the other branches of government. In the Bush administration however, the other two branches are merely subservient to the omnipotent King George.
