What comes after
I suppose it should be humorous, all these Wizards still shouting orders to the masses after Toto has pulled back the curtain. I can't see the humor.
We have the intel types like Clapper in US and
Lobban in UK, still claiming that NSA and GCHQ are fine law-abiding cautious underfunded agencies. Some of us have known better for 40 years. Now everyone knows.
We have the Obama
loyalists still spouting the company line about LOUSY and CRUMMY health plans, even while millions of Americans know perfectly well that our plans were perfectly satisfactory before the rules were changed by Romneycare. (We also understood that the whole system was broken, and that Romneycare was guaranteed to break it even more, but that's not a wizards-and-curtains issue.)
We have
defenders of Free Trade constantly claiming that all sides benefit, even while average Americans have known for 40 years that Free Trade is evil.
And of course we still have
Gaian wackos pleading for more money money money money money to feed the infinite appetites of Jew stockbrokers and Asian dictators, even after
several major governments!!!!! have pulled out of the Gaian maelstrom. (Thank God for that!)

Sorry, wizards. You've been decurtained.
40 years ago you could safely spout your satanic nonsense because the sane people were safely coated with tinfoil. Now the tinfoilers, assisted by heroes like Manning and Snowden and the still-anonymous Mr Foia of Climategate, have thrown off our foil chains.
What comes after decurtained? Defenestrated. It's time.
