- The shrub family buys a patch of land in the high chaco of Paraguay.
There's water and natural gas underground in abundance, plenty of brush
to clear, nice bicycling country, no pretzel stands, and no neighbors,
since the chaco war done most of then in (well, except for the moonies
who own the adjacent million acres or so).
- THe facist dictatorship of the Colorado party has been stable for 60
years, doesn't extradite, and agrees to not prosecute US military and
other gumment guys even if they do bad stuff, making it a good place
for misunderstoodimated political leaders to lay low.
- Leftist-populist-socialist roman catholic bishop Fernando Lugo
tries to resign his position in the church to run for public office but
the pope doesn't accept it - no ministry, but still a priest.
- He wins, root changes in Paraguay's political culture are on the
horizon.
- The pope comes to the US and meets with shrubbie jr. but doesn't
hang around to do dinner - all business - pedophiles, tears, empathy
and stuff.
