In parts 1 and 2 of this Fractured Fairy Tale, the Bureau of Land Management suddenly decided to back down and not steal Bunkerville rancher Clive Bundy’s 300 cattle. How did this miracle happen? Read on and find out…

John Wayne and Ronald Reagan were relaxing in Heaven, talking over old times, comparing leading ladies, and just shooting the breeze. Eventually, they noticed a big commotion in Bunkerville, Nevada, 80 miles from Las Vegas. They saw thousands of Tea Party members from several western states standing up to the Bureau of Land Management thugs who were trying to steal rancher Clive Bundy’s 300 head of cattle. (Note: You read about this in the last two Fractured Fairy Tales.)

Reagan: Look at all that stuff going on back on Earth down there. The BLM has artillery, dogs, snipers, 30 white police vans, helicopters. They’re nose-to-nose with Clive Bundy’s family and the 5,000 Tea Party members who are there to make sure Bundy and his family aren’t killed by the bad guys.

Wayne: Yeah, and now it looks like the BLM closed Interstate 15. People from Utah, the Arizona Strip, and Mesquite, Nevada, can’t get to the Clark County Fair and Rodeo in Logandale.

Reagan: Do you think the Tea Party folks followed the county commissioner’s advice?

Wayne: What advice was that, Ron?

Reagan: To have their funeral plans in place.

Wayne: Well, pilgrim, you and I aren’t gonna let that happen! Let’s go down there and make the bad guys back down!

Reagan: I’m with you, pardner!

The two superstars swoop down from Heaven and land between the bad guys and the good guys. They’re invisible. They implant visions of Hell in the minds of the BLM guys. The BLM guys no longer saw harmless ranchers and Tea Party members—they thought they were looking at a bunch of 7-foot devils with blazing pitchforks.

Even the evil BLM thugs didn’t want to go to hell. So they backed down and gave back the cattle they were in the process of confiscating from the Bundy family. When they re-opened Interstate 15, the Bundy family and their Tea Party supporters celebrated by going to the County Fair and Rodeo 30 miles away in Logandale. The ghosts of John Wayne and Ronald Reagan joined them.

But the bad guys from BLM were met at the Fair by goons hired by China’s ENN Energy Group. They got their revenge by beating the hell out of the BLM guys.

Well, it looks like this three-part fairy tale had a happy ending for everybody. Even the ghost of Charlie Rangel was happy. As you read in Part 2, he died trying to throw a punch at Oh-bummer. He looked forward to lying in state at the Capitol. But first his ghost visited the Clark County Fair and Rodeo. He entered a body of a cowboy who was riding a bull at the Rodeo. He picked the wrong cowboy, though. He was thrown off the bull and was gored to death. So Charlie Rangel died twice.

John Wayne and Ronald Reagan saw Rangel’s second death. They started talking:

Wayne: You were laid in state at the Capitol in Washington in 2004 when you died. And then you were buried at your Presidential Library in Simi Valley. When I died in 1979, I got a plain ordinary burial in Corona del Mar. Do you think Charlie Rangel should lay in state at the Capitol, too? He was a two-bit crook.

Reagan: Who cares? Let’s get back to Heaven. It’s so much better than being on Earth. You know, John, I wish I had never gotten into politics. I should have stayed in the best place in the world, southern California. I had to go to Sacramento when I was governor. Dullsville. And don’t get me started on Washington, DC. Cold weather, surrounded by crooked politicians, and…

The two former movie stars get back to Heaven. John’s three ex-wives, Josephine, Esperanza, and Pilar, are there to greet him. Jane Wyman, Ronald’s first wife, is there to greet him. All four women compliment their husbands on getting the Bureau of Land Management thugs to back down. Many, many lives were saved, and there was rejoicing in Heaven.

…and almost everywhere on Earth, too. Except at the homes of Harvey Whittemore,  Dirty Harry, and Ridiculous Rory Reid.
