When Doves Cry by Prince

(M)an: Dude! Samuel Richard Berger appeared on The Rachel Maddow Show this Thursday, March 20, 2014, and claimed the threat to Russians in Crimea was quote unquote fiction! Who told him?

(D)ude: Man! Samuel Richard Berger was President Bill Clinton’s National Security Advisor from 1997 to 2001. That probably explains Berger’s fictionalizing the Russian people’s history so unashamedly. President Clinton is quite shameless as well, telling reporters at Democratic fundraisers that the Democrats will have to work really hard in order to win back the United States House of Representatives and keep their majority in the Senate. Why won’t Clinton work hard on behalf of the party that made him president?

M: Dude! It is really sad when intellectualism becomes an affliction, as in the case of the Clintons. I think the only individual to come out of that Administration unscathed was Madeline Albright. Albright summarized the entire Edward Snowden bogus the best with Andrea Mitchell, calling today’s online youth weeks ago “cyber exhibitionists” and that Snowden was a traitor because he had clearly not taken the appropriate route to be considered a whistleblower by the United States government.

D: Man! The Clintons really consider themselves to be powerhouses. But, I tell you, the Clintons have fused out. The light just isn’t there anymore. Instead, there is a void that comes when you are selfish and self-righteous in the pursuit of monetary gratification.

M: Dude! In 1997, Samuel Richard Berger held onto his stock in the Amoco Corporation despite being informed three years earlier by the White House to sell. And then he was fined again for having taken classified documents from the National Archives in 2003, which led to him voluntarily giving up his license to practice law to avoid investigation by the Bar Council.

D: Man! The conservative status quo is trying to come across as a Christian-based faith organization that embraces fellowship while emphasizing the need for individuals to stand up by their own bootstraps and encourages traditional stereotypes about gender that have degraded the status of the female in American society. Hillary Rodham Clinton and her husband should be ashamed for not addressing the gravity of injustices piling up against American women by the Republican Tea GOP. Why won’t Hillary Rodham Clinton open her eyes to the horrors and tribulations of women in red states? Why isn’t she focusing on gubernatorial candidates Wendy Davis in Texas and Joe Dorman in Oklahoma?

M: Dude! Probably because Hillary Rodham Clinton thinks of herself as a big shot and Davis and Dorman are not the same kind of white collar as she? Of course, keep in mind, her husband has presidentially transcended all status gradients, although I believe H. Ross Perot had a major hand to play in President Clinton’s reelection efforts. Actually, the Bushes and the Clintons have a long running awareness of Perot’s factoring into the Clintons’ return to the White House for a second term, and both families are applying the same tactics to the midterm elections, trying to get questionable characters to identify themselves as Democrats when they are clearly not aligned on any of the issues with the party.

D: Man! Actor Amir Khan needs to learn from Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg. The Bollywood superstar wants to displace his neighbors in two apartment complexes so that he can construct an elaborate private bungalow for himself. I think if Amir Khan desires the additional premier properties, he ought to negotiate with the current residents and give them a hefty monetary compensation if they agree to vacate the premises and allow for Amir Khan’s constructing his private residence. For privacy purposes, Mark Zuckerberg bought all the homes around his modest home in Silicon Valley, but allowed the residents to continue living on their properties thereafter.  

M: Dude! You’re making reference to the fact that Amir Khan has been trying to attain sixty percent of the valuable property for his so-called private bungalow since 2011. I think Amir Khan would be well advised to match the cost of relocation for the families he wants to move out of those two apartment complexes and give them an added bonus for complying with his outrageous demands.

D: Man! Amir Khan is an elitist? I have a hard time believing that since the second season of Satyamev Jayate premiered recently on YouTube. Tackling the major social issues facing India and shedding light on corruption and injustice, Amir Khan’s show has thorough subtitles in English running at the bottom of the screen. However, when he closes every episode with a singer performing a song that is reflective of the topics discussed in that episode, the song lacks subtitles and that is not fair for outsiders who do not speak Hindi.

M: Dude! President Vladimir Putin is being unfairly assessed as a Kleptocrat, he hasn’t embezzled state funds like the Republican Tea GOP has through the methodical shutdown of women’s reproductive health clinics across the United States. The pretense is that the Republican Tea GOP state legislatures are concerned as pro-lifers, but they are pillaging the state funds allotted to social safety net programs like female reproductive healthcare services, which also provide extensive and much needed education about sexual health to women who otherwise would have to bare the burden of prophylactics and unintended pregnancies alone.

D: Man! There is a way the United States federal government can reopen those reproductive health clinics that the Republican Tea GOP has targeted and shut down. The President of the United States and his Secretary of State can reopen the clinics when they assess the abuse of power by Exxon Mobil and TransCanada in building natural gas pipelines and fine them gazillions of dollar amounts for having opted for inferior materials and compromising the entire infrastructure.

M: Dude! And then allot the gazillions to the restructuring and reopening of Rape and Incest Crisis Centers that would also provide medical services to those who have signed up for health insurance through the Affordable Care Act? Interestingly, Amir Khan’s show revealed how there are efforts being made by NGOs in India to standardize rape examinations in municipal hospitals. And there are what Former New Delhi High Court Justice Usha Mehra termed “One Stop Rape Crisis Centers” in South Africa, Malaysia, and Bangladesh.  

D: Man! Municipal hospitals? Residents do not see Fort Worth’s John Peter Smith Health Network in the same light as Texas Health Resources’ Harris Methodist Hospital or Baylor All Saints Medical Center, do they? And what about Plaza Medical Center?  

M: Dude! I believe the reason behind the Republican Tea GOP wanting to repeal the Affordable Care Act that they disparaging refer to as Obamacare is the hard facts of its success. Because of Obamacare/Affordable Care Act, my mother and father have reported how their health insurance provider Blue Cross Blue Shield has reduced the copayments and costs of certain procedures. 

D: Man! Really?

M: Dude! Yeah. Blue Cross Blue Shield has dropped copayments for well-woman exams, annual mammograms, and bone density tests that are performed every four years, and colonoscopy tests that must be done every decade after the age of fifty. There are other really nice incentives for people to shop around in the health insurance marketplace, but this introduction of competition between insurance companies is really ticking off the Republican Tea GOP due to the overall forecast of more drastic cuts in the cost of medical care in the United States.

D: Man! The Republican Tea GOP have a tendency to disconnect from their past, shoving Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan to the sidelines in order to enforce laws against Title X Family Planning Program that Nixon enacted in 1970, and the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act that Reagan signed into law in 1986.

M: Dude! The Republican Tea GOP knows the power of Democracy in India and they want to make a mess of all its advancements by placing Narendra Modi into the position of prime minister, the result of that election being closely watched and interfered with by Modi and the underground backing that he has from the United States Republican Tea GOP. I believe that President Putin is aware of this interference by the United States Republican Tea GOP in India and in Pakistan, remember how the Bush Dynasty and his father Asif Zardari are grooming Bilawal Bhutto?  

D: Man! George Prescott Bush is being groomed likewise here while his father Jeb Bush is being reinforced into the American conscience via Hillary Rodham Clinton’s sudden hawkish disconnect from the Obama Administration’s peace policies aboard. At least doves cry, as Prince sang back in the eighties!
