Thank you, kahpot.
Comment from Ulla
Hi Bill, this is just great and I admire you for putting in so many years of political scrabble. It is so funny. But in Europe we look on in amazement. I do know what most of us think. Can we really take you seriously anymore? A dangerous sentiment I may add. All best. Ulla:))

Trump has introduced the long feared 1984 scenario where the the leadership denies the truth and creates alternative facts to replace it. As far as I?m concerned Trump is a hand puppet doing Russia?s bidding and destroying American interests across the globe.

I agree with you. It's sad and dangerous. I'm half American so I have a vested interest. I also have very close family in the US. My American brother and his family.
Comment from Mistydawn
This was one heck of summary about what's happened over the last two decades. It's well-written, interesting. Your bits of humor made it seem a tad less grim. Nicely done.

Comment from Earl Corp
This was hilarious and you pointed out exactly wht I don't get my news from television. The news is so slanted between FOX and CNN it looks like a teeter totter.

When you need Walter Cronkite, he?s dead.
Comment from judiverse
Interesting how you are able to cover so many events of the past 20 years and give the Conservative channel's slant on the news Of course you need your exaggeration for effect. I don't know about the Conrad stuff at the end, though. That would be more appropriate for the liberal-slanted CNN and MSNBC. You know they're biased too, only in the progressive direction. Wonder if I could give this a short from the MSNBC perspective? judi

It?s all humor, Judi. Hope the Thought Police aren?t on their way to my house.

I've been known to do political satire. I may have to follow up with one of my own! judi
Comment from Gloria ....
LOL, this is hilarious, Bill. And my land you have covered a lot of territory since the new Millennium happened. Weren't the dark ages supposed to happen then because of computer clocks or something? I forget. lol.
Some great humour and the Weapons that mostly didn't exist is so true making it hilarious. Of course superb humour is always based on something or things almost true.
Super script. You know your history for sure. :)

Actually, Y2K happened New Year?s Day 2000, which was still the 20th century until that year was over. That why I didn?t include it, though it would have added to the humor. Thanks for giving this a look. Bill
Comment from Cindy Warren
I don't watch Fox news. We do get it here, and I've seen bits and pieces here and there. Is it really that bad? Could they get away with 'fake news?' Here they'd be in a lot of trouble for a false news broadcast.

They get away with it by calling it opinion. Then they spin everything to serve the President or conservative issues alone.
Comment from JudyE
I won't comment on the politics but I'm sure many of your countrymen will enjoy this.
I picked up a couple of small points that you might want to edit:
PMS: We've succeded despite the deep state attacks - spelling - succeeded
SNM: We're going to be fair and unbiased as usual as we examine our countries struggles - should be 'country's struggles'
met with the great and wonderful Vladimir Putin in Helesinki - spelling 'Helsinki' or perhaps it's intentionally spelt that way.
Cheers
Judy

Your satire is on point. Congratulations. There will be some who will hate what you wrote, screw them if they can't take a joke or is it joke them if they can't take a screw? I get confused sometimes. My take on life today is if you don't want to be laughed at, stop doing funny stuff.

Comment from lyenochka
Love your humor, Bill. A great job with the political satire which shows clearly where you stand. (Brave of you!) Congrats on making it to #1 on the Scriptwriting sector!
I knew the "Demoncrats" was intentional but " our countries struggles " (country's?)
