As we all know by now, the phrase "unitary executive" is just code for "giving the president nearly unlimited executive power" and bypassing the normal checks and balances supplied by the Legeslative and Judicial branches. With the facists now holding Power in the Legislative, and Alito on the way to secure the Judicial, it really seems an un-nessecary step.
But on the off chance the upcoming State elections can't be won and/or rigged in favor of the Reich, it behooves them to get a reign on those additional powers now.
Logical. Evil, wrong and Un-American as hell.. but Logical.
By now you're thinking;
"We know this already dumbass!" and "How does this relate to Sadomasochism? I wanted to read smut Dammit!"

The more I heard about the idea of the Unitary (unilateral)Executive the more it confused me. Not the concept itself. That, at least, is pretty straight foward;
"The President does whatever the fuck he wants to, and you can either like it or you can keep your fucking mouth shut, pinko!"
See? Easy.
What confused me is that I just couldn't fathom the "unitary executive" mentality..
How can you want someone, who is already in a position of GREAT authority, to have even more control over you?
.... then it hit me.
Just replace the whips, chains and gagballs with Power Suits, judges robes and briefcases and it all makes perfect sense.
I'm not even kidding.
This is the only explanation I can come up with as to why a presumably sane, intelligent human being would view this flavor of dictatorship as tasty.
Just look at the following excerpt from a Psychology Today Article:
You've got a respectably high-powered job. Maybe it's even a visible one. You are regularly making difficult decisions that affect the lives of others, perhaps many others. You need to maintain a highly polished self-image. You like to feel in personal control. You're constantly advancing your independence, your responsibility, your success.
So how do you take a break? If you're like an unknown number of others, perhaps you've already signed up for a spanking.
I'm sure you've all heard the old cliche of the rich powerful businessman who likes to be whipped and humiliated. Those who dominate in thier daily lives who secretly desire to be dominated and controlled as a relief from the pressures of power.
Often, these relationships are not even sexual in nature. It's all about the dynamics of authority and control.
Judges, Law-makers.. these are all positions of great responsibility and power.
So it makes sense that some of these would seek comfort in the submissive role of being Bush's political "bottom".
With people like this licking his boot all the time, it's no wonder Bush has such a full blown case of Top's disease.
