With electrical power restored and the street clearing in process the Mayor and his staff start inspecting their damaged city. Tens of thousands of homes are destroyed, over a million are now homeless, and many have broken into office buildings to find temporary shelter. Without electrical power, toilets ceased functioning, piles of human waste line the sidewalks. People have been catching stray pets and large rats which they cook over fires made from furniture dragged out of offices and homes. With the power restored water once again begins flowing, fresh water flows out of millions of feet burst water pipes causing flooding in apartments, office buildings and under the street. The head of the city’s water department tells the Mayor they have to turn off the flow of fresh water in order to protect their supply, most of the water flowing into the city is pouring out of the broken pipes. The Mayor has no choice but to authorize stopping the flow of fresh water into his city.

 

The temperature on January 11
th
rises above freezing in the North East; the snow begins to melt, causing additional flooding. Thousands are sick from drinking dirty water further overloading the city’s emergency medical staff and filling the already full hospitals.

 

Everywhere the Mayor looks he sees the destruction, suffering, and illness. He doesn’t know how to respond, he’s never faced a situation like this; he doesn’t know what to do first, he begins yelling at his staff and firing any who question him. By 7:00 PM, New York City's departments, are being operated by fourth and fifth ranking people, many who’ve never managed a group more than twenty people. The city is imploding, the police can’t stop the crime; they no longer even respond to most calls,

 

At 9:00 PM, 107 citizens on Park Avenue have had enough, they’ve seen the city can’t provide them with security, or even the necessities like fresh water, they’ve been attacked eight times by different gangs. They’ve had enough; they arm themselves with bats, metal pipes and two small handguns they took off of dead gang members. Fires are lit around their group for light and warmth. Their leader who used to be a banker tells his neighbors, “Enough of this shit, next gang who tries to take what’s ours I’m killing. Who’s with me?” Everyone yells “I am.” The banker tells his neighbors to drag over debris to form a makeshift wall giving them some protection from roving gangs. At midnight, a gang and the citizens fight a pitched battle. The sun rises the next day showing 22 dead bodies on the street. NYPD arrives at the corner at 10: 30 AM, the sergeant, looks at the bodies, the bandaged people huddling around campfires, and he asks, “Who’s in charge of this mess?”

The banker steps forward saying, “I am.”

 

“I don’t know if I should arrest you or give you a metal, so tell you what, I didn’t see anything, get rid of these bodies before anyone else sees them. I have two cases of bottled water I can give you, sorry I have no food left.”

 

“Thanks, any idea when things will return to normal around here?”

 

“I wish I did, I’m not sure this isn’t going to be the new normal.”

 

“I wish we were armed.”

 

“I understand, but I can’t arm you, the LSA doesn’t allow armed citizens.”

 

“Yea, I know, I think it’s time to pack up and move.”

 

“I might just join you. New York is worse than the cities I saw in the sandbox when I was in the service. There’s dead everywhere; tens of thousands of buildings burned, hell most of the city resembles Beirut.”

Closely following the snow plows and sanitation trucks are the Presidential security teams and the NYPD VIP protection detail, both are searching for President Obsma. On January 22nd they find him living in the tunnel. He doesn’t remember who he is, or what happened. A large area is cleared in front of the tunnel so a helicopter can land, picking up the President, transporting him to the Mount Sinai Medical Center. Three doctors are waiting outside on the heliport for him. They strap Obsma onto a stretcher taking him into the emergency room. The man they examine is fifteen pounds lighter, shaking, doesn’t remember who he is, he’s confused, thirsty and hungry. He asks, “Where’s Janice?”

 

One of the doctors asks, “Who’s Janice?”

 

“My friend, where I she?”

 

The doctor has no idea; he steps outside the room to speak with a police captain, “He’s asking for a Janice, was there a woman with him when he was found?”

 

“Doc, I don’t know, I’ll find out if there was should be bring her here?”

 

“Yes, it might make it easier for him to remember.”

“OK.”

The doctors determine the President has suffered a serious concussion and has memory loss. No one knows how long his amnesia will last. They admit him, clearing an entire wing of the hospital for his security.

Acting President Reid is informed President Obsma has been rescued, however, due to his head injuries Reid is going to have to remain in office a little longer.

 

“Nanny, they found him. However he can’t remember anything, not even who he is.”

 

“Harold, where is he?”

 

“Mount Sinai in New York City. I’m going to fly there to see him.”

 

“We’ll both go.”

 

“One of us should stay here to run the country, I’ll go, you stay as the acting VP.”

 

“Harold what happens if he doesn’t recover?”

 

“Then we can drop the acting from our titles.”

 

“That would be nice.”

 

Reid lands at the Martin Luther King Airport, he’s taken by helicopter to Mount Sinai. Meeting with the doctors, he learns no one knows when or even if President Obsma will regain his memory. The man in the bed doesn’t look like Obsma, he’s shaking; he has no idea who he is, and Reid is also told that he has aids.

 

Reid decides the best place for the President is a special recovery hospital outside of LA. He makes arrangements for the Obsma to be transported to a private hospital. A hospital he controls. Obsma will never be discharged from the hospital. He’ll be kept sedated for the rest of his life or until Reid decides a better use for him.

 

“Nanny I’m returning. I saw Obsma; the poor man is very ill, I’m having him transferred to that small private health care facility we spoke about. I know he’ll get the best treatment there; they’ll watch over him 24 hours a day. I called them to make sure they can take him under their care. They were full but assured me they’ll make room for him, they’ll put their best staff on his case.”

 

“Harold, I agree with you. You have such a big heart. When will you be returning?”

 

“This evening. I’ll see you when I land; I think we should inform the people we found him. I have a video of the poor man we’ll show to the people. I’m going to declare a national day of service in his honor. I’m going to ask everyone to work a day helping others for Obsma. He always was so keen on people volunteering their time.”

 

“That’s a wonderful idea. When the poor man passes, we’ll declare a national holiday in his honor.”

 

“Not too fast Nanny, we have to give the poor man time to recover, we’ll see how he’s doing in a couple of months.”

Reid addresses the LSA with the wonderful news their founder and President for life; Obsma has been found! He was located taking shelter in a tunnel. The bad news is he’s suffered a head injury and has lost his memory. Reid tells the nation Obsma has been admitted to a private recovery hospital outside of LA where he’ll get the best care the LSA can provide. In the interim He, Harold Reid is assuming the role of President with the support from Nanny Polsi. Reid promised to provide the nation monthly updates on their founder and loved President for life Obsma.

 

President Brownstone and Rash Linebacker Watch Reid’s address while he’s explaining the condition of the poor Obsma, Rash loses it, he laughs so hard he coughs up his coffee. The President looks over at Rash; Brownstone is laughing at Rash so hard he starts coughing. The Secret Service hears an uproar in the Oval Office they burst in ready for anything. They pull up in front of the two men who’re laughing and slapping each other on their backs. The senior agent in charge says, “Mr. President is everything OK?”

 

Still laughing, the President says, “Yes, yes, thank you. Rash, you OK?”

 

“Yes, I’m laughing, OK.”

 

“Sir, do you need anything?”

 

“We’re fine, thanks. Since you’re on duty outside the office, I guess you didn’t hear the latest out of the LSA.”

 

“No sir, did something happen? Did they find President Obsma?”

 

“Yes, they found him living in a tunnel in New York City, he’s lost all memory, he has no idea who he is or what happened. Acting President Harold Reid is having President Obsma sent to a private hospital in the hills outside of LA. You may recognize the name, the Silver Institute.”

 

“Sir, THE Silver Institute? The one, the CIA and FBI, used to stash people they wanted to make disappear?”

 

“The very same.”

 

“Now I understand what’s so funny. If you’ll excuse me, sir,” Trying to hold back laughing the senior agent in charge leaves the Oval Office closing the door behind him.

 

Rash tells the President, “Well I guess that’s the last we’ll see of Obsma. I wonder how long Reid will wait before the poor man passes.”

 

“Rash, issue a release expressing our hope for a speedy recovery.”

 

“Yes sir, I can’t wait to see the press’ faces.”

 

“Rash, let me ask you a question, do you think we should break President Obsma out of the rehab center? Let our doctor’s check him out?”

 

“Mr. President, if we did that I’m sure Reid will make up a story that we kidnaped Obsma; or we set up an actor to play the role of Obsma for political reasons. Even if President Obsma makes it, will anyone believe us?”

 

“Good point. I think we’ll let Reid handle Obsma.”

 

Chapter 30.

Now that Reid’s in total control of the LSA, the time is right for him to begin ‘
political cleansing’ of the LSA. He decides to move quickly while he has the public’s full trust
.
His allies have supplied him with a military taking the pressure off of him worrying about an American invasion. Reid and his allies in the mainstream media begins a program to demonize formal religion. Reid knows that in order to have total control over his population he has to replace formal religion with the State. Reid recruits the media to assist, Hollywood makes movies that are based on the Bible but the stories are changed just enough to cast doubt on the stories. Movies that show God as an angry God. Movies that push the progressive points. Television shows follow the theme continuing to push Reid’s message.  Any group that doesn’t agree with the party line is demonized. Reid doesn’t think there’s going to be any problems taking the LSA to the next step. Reid issues a mandate to outlaw religious books and materials, these include Bibles, prayer books, and any religious materials, these are collected and burned in bonfires. Reid announces a contest for the LSA’s children, the ones who collect the most religious books are given awards. Those who refuse to turn over any of their religious materials are beaten, some are sent to re-education camps. Churches, temples, and Mosques are burned, sometimes with the congregation still inside of them. Schools begin teaching children that religion is the cause of most of the world’s wars; more people die following one God, or another than for any other reason. Schools teach the bible is a work of fiction. Children are taught to rely only on the State. Schools teach that the prayer doesn’t provide any help. They show movies from the Holocaust where millions prayed to no avail. They showed images of the killed and maimed in the name of God. Children who don’t accept the school’s message are brought up to the front of the room; they are asked to pray for help, the teacher then tells the other students to beat the student to show prayer doesn’t provide any help. It’s a message the children remember for a very long time.

 

The government supported gangs are bused town to town looking for any who don’t agree with the LSA’s progressive mantra. Anyone suspected of not fully supporting the progressive religion is dragged out of their homes, they’re beaten, their homes are ransacked, many are burned to the ground, women and girls are raped. Progressivism replaces religion in the LSA. Many who cling to their religion are sent to work camps where they are put to work on state projects such as manually building roads, cleaning up and rebuilding the burnt out inner cities where they’re attacked by people who think they’re against the LSA or cleaning up toxic waste, most don’t survive four years in the work programs. The children of the religious are taken away from their parents, the very young are given to foster parents while the teenagers are sent to re-education camps or sent to Cuba where they’re forced to join the socialist’s military.
