Man! Dude! Session #195

(M)an: Dude! United Nations investigators will be leaving Syria tomorrow after gathering hard evidence of chemical weaponry utilized and the numbers of civilians killed. However, Russia has stated that Britain’s position against a military response from the United States is the stance of almost all European nations, with the exception of France who is providing a collaborative coalition of support to US.    

(D)ude: Man! I was reading up on the Battle of Badr and found that there was a spirit of intellectualism within the Muslim community that involved prisoners of war winning their freedom via teaching at least 10 Muslims to read and write after capture. Likewise, I was also thinking what it would be like if we got our so-termed “lost generations” to do something like that for the betterment of our global economy.

M: Dude! The Republican GOP is not going to encourage anything but conflict and division. We are in the capable hands of the Obama Administration and must not forget that despite the turbulence abroad, there is an equally sinister presence at home that is the gerrymandered cheats that have obstructed justice for women, minorities, and practically everybody not within the status quo.

D: Man! No, really! What ever became of coolheaded calmness and hard work? I’ll tell you! It is launching the careers and lives of teachers and their students in schools like Rothenberg Preparatory Academy in Cincinnati, Ohio under the leadership of Principal Alesia Smith. Did you know that Principal Smith picked up on the value of healthy snacks and occasional indulgences for her students to have for their hard work and drive and the incredible eventual results? Right now, the children have a proficiency of 60% in reading and 50% in mathematics and getting better with the ensuing months because of the uplifted spirits of the teachers due to Principal Smith’s encouragement.   

M: Dude! Likewise, I think I’ve figured out the common denominator in the mathematics of the Republican GOP. Hafez al-Assad, Bashar al-Assad’s father, was born into poverty and joined the Ba’ath Party as a 1946 student activist. Like John Boehner and Eric Cantor, after a career in strife due to limited IQ resulting from evil intentions, Hafez al-Assad befriended the Soviets to build the military in Syria while coughing up support for public works in Syria, only to suppress the Muslim Brotherhood insurgency in 1982, slaughtering tens of thousands of people in the town of Hama.        

D: Man! President Hafez’s younger brother, General Rifaat al-Assad, carried out the Hama massacre in February of 1982, which became the deadliest attack on civilians by an Arab government in the modern Middle East.

M: Dude! How do you know?

D: Man! Bashar al-Assad’s eleven-year-old son purportedly posted on a Facebook account belonging to children of the Assad Administration a menacing forewarning to the United States that would have gotten equally limited intellectuals in the Republican GOP into a back-and-forth with whoever was behind that now deleted post.

M: Dude! Evil breeds evil breeds evil!

D: Man! Dictator to dictator to brat-in-training-for-dictatorship!

M: Dude! Isn’t John Boehner a bratty Republican?

D: Man! Forty-five percent of John Boehner’s family is probably struggling near poverty. The likes of Boehner just drive by their old neighborhoods and lament his relatives’ inabilities to prosper as he did!

M: Dude! Hafez al-Assad and John Boehner have much in common. In fact, the eleven-year-old heir apparent to Bashar al-Assad has a lot of the same values as the Republican GOP. I guess when you start out in life in poverty, you can look ahead and march forward, or you can look ahead and march forward while trampling and conniving people right and left of you to get to the prize.

D: Man! What prize? Power?

M: Dude! Perhaps. Hafez al-Assad and John Boehner choose to live out in polyester suits from Sears, 

changing lanes in public when confronted with the possibility of being sighted by a downtrodden relative.

D: Man! Changing lanes on the highway? Or like at a department or grocery store? I can imagine, more likely I have probably seen, John Boehner change lanes at Wal-Mart at the sight of downtrodden relatives.

M: Dude! That’s how middle class values have become a platform for the progressives! Conservatives, on the other hand, choose to live in grandiosity within a universal school of social cruelties that they impose upon their own as well. You think Bashar al-Assad’s eleven-year-old son is growing up with a concern for all those who suffered at the hands of his grandfather?

D: Man! Or worse, the eleven-year-old is probably plotting his own prejudices and cruelties based on his inherited dictatorial status, like that Facebook comment. He’s already pouring hot sauce all over the wounds of projected enemies.  

M: Dude! Bashar al-Assad’s supporters are leaving Syria in sedans, not trekking through the dirt roads with single suitcases from their past like their refugee counterparts.

D: Man! Reminds me of the cheap pins that John Boehner and the Congressional Republicans adorn to promote what I consider a, pardon the expression, gringo culture of accomplishment through personal inaction and professional malaise.

M: Dude! The pins are easy indications of just who is lower than the lowest in the United States government, because the Tea Party candidates particularly love symbols.

D: Man! How many vacation days have the Congressional Republicans instituted?

M: Dude! I wonder if ABC News’ Consumer Watchdog segment will ever provide numbers of the government waste that is incurred by the constant adjournment in the House of Representatives and the meaningless committee hearings in the Senate.

D: Man! Talk about those, excuse me, gringo badges of inaction and polyester suits from Sears inside the United States Republican Party! John McCain is constantly pressing his!
