In a seditious article earlier today, the forces of evil announced a coup at the Great Orange Satan.
While Navajo was rolling cigars between her thighs in their Cuban hideaway, and Armando was planning an assault on Daily Kos Radio, to further cement their grip on power, Susan Gardner worked with the Meteoric Resistance.
Full Report below the Orange Squiggle of Revenge
From a bunker in Berkeley:
Markos: Will no one rid me of this meddlesome Armando?
Susan: Boss, you brought him back, now he's inside the tent, pissing in!
Markos: But Nava-freakin'-jo. I didn't see that coming!
ct: Pizza anyone?
Markos/Susan: Shut up ct!
ct slinks away still looking for the data center keys
Susan: Something IS being done. I called up grog the impaler, vcmvo2 (the one with the name no one can spell), and pico the persuader. They have a freakin' army and General Blades is leading the fight.
Markos: Well I gave them prime real estate on the site. It's time they did something useful!
Phone rings ... It's twigg, he has the keys for the data center and is offering them in exchange for Universal Healthcare
Markos: ct! Go deal with twigg, get the keys and remind him who controls the Mojo around here. Leave the pizza, this revolutionary crap is making me hungry.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst even to the efficient Susan, the Top Comments team have launched an offensive from Miami. Unfortunately, JekylnHyde chose this moment to post a cartoon, of a hurricane in Florida, so Top Comments may be late tonight ... again. Markos is investigating the suggestion that JekylnHyda might be in league with weatherdude, playing a whole other game of their own
Susan: ct has the keys. Meteor Blades sent a Night Owl over to twigg who sent them back tied to the owl's leg. ct has cut the data link to Cuba. We have control.
NEWSFLASH: Police are investigating anonymous reports of a foreigner in Oklahoma being cruel to an owl.
Meanwhile, in a swift and decisive action (obviously they can not be from the DNC), the Rescue Rangers have joined up with the Top Comments team and mopped up the remaining rebels. Orange flag with snake emblem is lowered and we can see "Man holding flag" restored to its rightful place.
Markos was last seen heading out on a bicycle, piano music emanating from his iPod.
Mentioned in Dipatches:
grog ... for having an awesome name
pico .... ditto
vcmvo2 .... spellcheck
