Today, on CROSSFIRE:

[Paragon]

Woman: I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.

Dennis: You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship, a self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes-

Woman: Oh there you go, bringing class into it again.

Dennis: That's what it's all about! If only people would-

King Arthur: Please!

[Fenris]

1. I am your King!

Woman: Well I didn't vote for you!

King Arthur: You don't vote for kings.

Woman: Well how'd you become king then?

King Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. THAT is why I am your king!

Dennis: Listen, strange women lyin' in ponds distributin' swords is no basis for a system of government! Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

[Fenris]

2. Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because

Some watery tart threw a sword at you!

[Fenris]

3. Oh but if I went 'round sayin' I was Emperor

just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

[Fenris]

4. Come see the violence inherit in the system!

Help, help! I'm being repressed!

[Fenris]

5. KICK
