He da boss
2006-08-09
After Tony Soprano recovered from a bullet to the gut, he had to
show his clan that he was still in charge. So he picked a fight
with the biggest brute he could find and beat the crap out of
him. Václav Klaus, weakened by his mother's death and by
credible claims from Green Chairman Martin Bursík that he's
mainly interested in getting reelected, tried yesterday to
reestablish his authority by (figuratively) socking Bursík in the
jaw and calling his other critics juvenile. Klaus has a plan for
ending the stalemate in Parliament. He didn't specify it, but it
will likely include a reversal of his unwillingness to give Jiří
Paroubek a chance to form a government. But only after Mirek
Topolánek is given an official chance to fail. Government-
building will now likely return to square one, with the notable
exception that Klaus will start looking more and more like the
one in charge.
