In a brief conversation with a friend earlier, somehow a discussion of the political climate morphed into screaming for Stella. I then thought that it might be an entertaining idea to re-work Tenessee William's, "A Street Car named Desire," to reflect our trying times. Thus far, these are the main characters:
Stella = The American people; pretending nothing's wrong and avoiding the truth. Just trying to make a nice home...
Blanche = The Republican party, The Tea party, Glen Beck et al; unrealistically longing for a kinder more gentile time but, in reality is really kind of soiled and nuts.
Stanley = The ECONOMY; angry and out of friggin' control. He really wants to F*** somebody.
Mitch = President Obama; trying to turn a "ho" of an economy into a housewife. He doesn't quite realize that politely courting a b***h this messed up is kinda useless.
More to come...
