I hope this post will get past the rules against being political because we have a very exciting drama going that is much more interesting than politics. Liz Cheney is not your adverage liberated woman with dreams of power. Liz Cheney is the daughter of Dick Cheney, a former FBI director and a neocon who accomplished this...
And also the invasion of Iraq while Afghanistan was ignored because it was not important to the neocon New Century American Project of expanding US military control of the mid-east.
These dynasties are about characters and power ties and personal investments that lead to fortunes.
I don't care so much about the politics as I care about the dynasties playing out this drama, and vying for control of US politics. There is Trump who has done a surprisingly good job of establishing his dynasty complete with his offspring standing in line for that power, and then there is the Cheney family and neocon dynasty tied to control of oil and military might. What is the play Shakespear would write? What of this woman who is so sure of herself she dares to challenge Trump? She radiates the power Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris only wish they had. The Clintons and Kamala Harris are outsiders, who do not have the power of a well-established dynasties.
And Trump is not a dynastic insider either but a upsurger, someone from the outside who has successfully established his upstart dynasty, thanks to Wrestlemania and those who have that mentality. You know, like a Roman emperor giving the masses bread and a circus.
I would love to see the play Shakespear would write with these characters.
The World Dick Cheney Built
The vice president had spent most of his career trying to lift the restraints on presidential authority. After 9/11, he did just that.
