on my radar: coup de tat


Queen Elizabeth visits the US and decides to reclaim it for England!


After enjoying a week “across the pond”, Queen Elizabeth has requested that her out-going Prime Minister, Tony Blair, draft up a resolution to reclaim the US as a sovereign nation beholden to the Queen and England. “I had forgotten how lovely the people and places are, there in America”, she was overheard saying. Initially amazed by the stupidity (and his suggestion that she was here in 1776) of President Bush, she felt that the nicest thing that she could offer the average American citizen was a reprieve from his reign, and thus a non-militant coup plan was hatched. Seeing how the British have more troops at home, and at her disposal, the strategy seems brilliant. The state of Kansas is backing the queen’s claim. “It would be a relief to have some sort of military assistance to help with the clean-up of these twisters, and since our soldiers are in Iraq, why not bring in the British,” Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius said, “we need help here at home!”


The loss of the “British Crown Jewels (as the Beckham’s are being called these days)” also seems to be influencing the queen’s move, but she really couldn’t care less about Elton John or Fergie (the “real” duchess). “I love that crazy tattooed "playa" , and David , too,” the queen exclaimed! “I don’t want to lose Posh, or diminish any chances of a Spice Girl reunion by them moving abroad!”
