“I don’t have much patience for people who deny climate change” the American President said last Wednesday. His new Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz said, “I am not interested in debating what is not debatable.”
L Frank Baum’, in the Wizard of Oz, created “The Man Behind the Curtain”; an individual of ultimate authority, infallibility and wisdom.
Debating “He who must be obeyed” views would , at best, indicate severe mental-instability and, at worst, an admission of treachery.
Like all good fairy tales it had a happy ending once the curtain had been pulled back to reveal the weak, grasping and delusional wizard who hid behind it!
Fast forward to the present and it’s hard to differentiate between fact and fiction.
Today “The Man behind the Curtain” is, no other than, the most powerful man on earth. The curtain is now consensus-clad and woven from the finest gossamer and tissue that can be bought from Big-science.
Those who humbled the fictional despots- a motley, unwanted and impecunious crew – may have parallels with our current sceptical bloggers (: notwithstanding the Big-Tin, Oil-Man shill AdHom Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.
The happy ending is still uncertain but, fingers crossed, it’ll be more of the Yellow Brick, and less of the Green Trick, Road.
