It appers that Wm Shakepeare predicted the 2012 political situation when he wrote Mabeth. It's amazing how he knew all those years ago.
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
Mitt's but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more.
His is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.
— Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 5, lines 17-28)
