Whoa. Are you all suddenly trying to turn Python into a democracy?
Arthur: I am your king! Woman: Well I didn't vote for you! Arthur: You don't vote for kings. Woman: Well how'd you become king then? [Angelic music plays...] Arthur: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering silmite 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 interrupting: 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! ----------------------- Dennis: Oh, but you can't expect to wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you! ----------------------- Dennis: 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! ----------------------- Dennis: Help! Help! I'm being oppressed! Violence inherent in the system! Violence inherent in the system! _______________________________________________
