Pledge Tones Counseling (Client Two, Session One, Part II)

Pledge Tones Counseling (Client Two, Session One, Part II)

Client: I find comfort in Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.’s sermon “Unfulfilled Dreams” because my David was in some ways like King David too, as all our sons and daughters in uniform ought be respected, who believed in service and went into combat fearlessly to build a temple of sorts for healing and recovering from the last century’s silent legacy of bigotry that goes unaddressed by the supremacist Republicans and Democrats who are afraid to face what some have termed the eventual browning of the United States. I have objections to the term browning personally because I believe it only infuriates the intolerant to further their contemptible agenda of overt hate into mainstream society while their political representatives in government legislate blow after blow to human rights covertly through their localities, gerrymandered to disenfranchise minorities and voice consensually to big money donors who, despite their fortunes, are cruder than oil.        

Pledge Tones: Are foreign leaders like Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and domestic ones such as the forty plus so in the United States Senate who sent out a letter forewarning Iran of any peace deal through the current administration not standing once the Republicans take over the Executive Branch in 2016 actually a reflection of just how pervasively the neoconservatives are allowed by American Media to undermine progressive measures?

Client: And the American Media mostly if not always undermines the Democratic Presidencies’ efforts to unite all nations intelligently through talks, not weapons. It’s like the American Press Corps follows two separate scripts of questions and concerns when addressing neoconservatives and the progressives, giving substantial leeway to the neoconservatives than the progressives. Why won’t the American Press Corps revisit the injustices and rewrites of George Walker’s Vice President Dick Cheney as they pertain to bypassing recording keeping entirely with the National Archives and Records Administration as of 2003? Instead, the American Press Corps has chosen to focus erroneously on Hillary Rodham Clinton’s email records. Neither the United States Press nor the neoconservatives will ever read through the 55,000 pages made available by Rodham Clinton, but they will insist upon longing for and agonizing over the 10% that they won’t get access to due to the family details disclosed inside and, hence, the prolonged public pining by broadcasters on all major television networks and radio shows for the duration of the rest of this year and the starting half of the next.

Pledge Tones: There is a strategy underway to undermine Hillary Clinton and women nationwide and all over the world through calculated partisanship in major media outlets? How about local newspapers and periodicals?

Client: Yes. Terrorists in the Islamic World are not Muslims but rather a transnational network of human traffickers whose only purpose is exploiting and enslaving girls and boys, men and women. These terrorist networks, I conjecture, overlap with the neoconservatives’ network of prostitutes hired by big money donors for entertainment. Therefore, these neoconservative conferences attended by legislators and judiciaries are closed door affairs with invite-only private access that involves the richest in international media providing prescript coverage of the going-on inside, these head honchos exploiting sex workers as well.

Pledge Tones: Your conjecturing?

Client: Yes. I’m a retired professor of curriculum and instruction. I cannot help but view the threat of terrorism as an educator and parent. My mind leaps forth with such intensity. My conjecturing and observations concern corruption and warfronts. Basically, you could not have one without the other due to the inexcusably offensive presumption by Cowboy Dick Cheney and his Posse Roundup in the United States Congress and American Media that their libidos are ungovernable and need to be addressed with the same insistent promiscuous perversion by which Former Senator Bob Dole advocated erectile dysfunction medications in the late 1990s, now in his late nineties. I recall Gabriel Garcia Marquez’s 2005 novel Memories Of My Melancholy Whores with equal revulsion. All of the above males conflate prostitution and sex workers with double standards about sexual health concerns and adolescent development into degrading stereotypes about the female state. It is time for implementing measures to ensure that girls and women are granted opportunities affording them the same agency and knowledge as boys and men to rise above their secondary stations in life with safeguards in place to ensure physical protection from harm and marginalization.       

Pledge Tones: Sex trafficking is prevalent in nations where the freedom of the press is restrained. The United States Congress did not renew the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 when it came up for reauthorization in 2011, although by then Hillary Clinton had implemented an additional means of combating human trafficking worldwide as Secretary of State during her first months on the job in 2009, specifically indicating that partnership was just as crucial as the previously established components of protection, prosecution, and prevention.

Client: Did you catch the ISIL promotional video advertisement by Lorne Michaels and the writers of Saturday Night Live two Sundays ago? Actress Dakota Johnson plays a high school graduate and ISIL recruit whose father has come to the airport to send her off with members of the terrorist organization, with the false assurance that his daughter will be back in time for Thanksgiving. I think it was a calculated move as was the disgust shared by some of the Fox News Channel broadcasters towards that crafted public service announcement for ISIL by Lorne and SNL. The question I would like answered is how Charlie Hebdo’s Caroline Fourest managed to stay out of the city both times when Charlie Hebdo headquarters were bombed in Paris, November 2, 2011 and January 7, 2015. Plus, is it I or has someone elsewhere in the world also detected Islamophobic contempt towards Muslims in general in Caroline Fourest’s sound bytes, interviews, and writings? And is it I or has anyone else read that sheer ridiculousness and flashy emptiness in Salman Rushdie’s books as well?

Pledge Tones: What would be a bottom-line?

Client: Iran and Israel are far more sophisticated and intellectual than the empty-headed Congressional Republicans in the United States Senate and House of Representatives and know ISIL, the GOP, SNL, and Charlie Hebdo are four of many forces that only want to make coming to the table—sensibly and embracing diversity and human integrity—impossible because all four entities are essentially supremacist traffickers at the core.
