Hollywood Crowns Its King

It's a good thing actress Gwyneth Paltrow isn't in charge of the Electoral College, because last week she would have given Obama "...all the power he needs to pass the things he needs to pass."

This phrase can be boiled down to one word:  Dictator.

Let's take a look at some folks who had "all the power they needed to pass the things they needed to pass," shall we?

Here's just about everyone's poster-child of a dictator:

 

But there's also Uncle Joe...

 

 

...along with "The Great Helmsman."

 

 

While in my lifetime, there's been... 

 

...President for Life Killing Fields...

 

 

...President for Life Spiderhole...

 

 

...President for Life Big Daddy...

 

 

...and...Has anyone seen Lil Kim lately?

 

 

Anyway, while North Korea's "Young Master," remains MIA, Zimbabwe's Mad Bob still clings to power.

 

 

 

So giving anyone "...all the power he needs..." doesn't seem like such a great idea after all, if history--and the body counts these guys have racked-up--is any indicator to go by.

And yet, there are useful fools willing to help up-and-coming dictators pave the Road to Hell--with other people's lives.

Ms Paltrow needs to stick to reading scripts for a living.
