The Revolution: This way!
So, how come if your the leader of the steadfast opposition, you are sitting in these mountains freezing your chops off...
Revolutionaries naturally go to the mountains... Check the Castro model.
Yes, I guess you're right. But how come you don't have any followers.
Because I will not allow any one to follow me, unless he or she understands the true nature of our protests?
I see. So, you're saying in effect that nobody understands the nature of your protest.
That's correct and I am protesting that, too.
Why not? What do you stand for...
The liberals and progressives are whom I represent...
And where are they?
They're working, raising their children and doing odd jobs.
So, why aren't they here with you?
Because they feel I don't express their point of view...
Which is?
I'm not sure!
Why is that?
Because they don't seem to express their ideas in a unified way...
Oh, so you are out to have them unify their point of view...
That too!
What else?
To get them to explain it to me...
Well, what do you think it is...
I stand for human rights!
That's good. What else.
I stand for lower gasoline costs...
And what else.
I stand for better jobs and no more jobs going off shore.
It would be pretty hard to argue with your platform...
I know but progressives and liberals are independent minded...
So what?
So what. Every time three of us get together to start a revolution we get into an argument..
About what?
Who should lead?
What else?
What our revolution should be about...
I see. Makes it kind of hard to have a revolution then doesn't it.
No, not really.
What do you mean?
I am handling it.
You are handling a revolution?
Yes, admittedly it's small.
I'd say.
But they know I'm here.
And what are they doing about it.
Mostly, nothing.
How does that allow you to make some kind of impact.
Oh, we have our meetings in the afternoon, then we argue, and towards the end, we dance the dance of freedom...
Who knows about it.
You do now.
Isn't that a slow start.
Well, remember what Chairman Mao said.
Which was....
The journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step...
I see. Well, thank you, Mr....
Just call me, El Presidente of the Revolutionary Movement of the Estados Unidos del Norte America...
That's a long title isn't it.
Yeah, it's a real bitch trying to fit on a letterhead.
Well, good luck to your movement.
It's going much better now.
Since when...
Since you came to report on us...
Ah, I see. Well, bye for now...
I offer you the salute of the Revolutionary Forces....
Ah, you can can that for now...I'm the only one here...
But we are building a tradition of steadfastness...
I see. okay, bye.
Long Live the Revolution!
