Basic Truths About Coexistence



(D)ude: Man! Easter is a spring celebration in Pakistan! The terrorists and the Republican GOP and the corporate Press Corps are reporting Christians as having been targeted, but do they not know the basic truths about the coexistence of faiths in Pakistan?

(M)an: Dude! The terrorists and the Republican GOP and corporate Press Corps are all guilty of making false generalizations and painting everything with a broad paintbrush as either being Western or Eastern. The truth and reality is such that the children’s park in Lahore, Pakistan that was targeted specifically did not segregate attendees according to religion or creed. As you said, Easter is a celebration of spring in Pakistan regardless of whether you are a Muslim or Christian! In fact, Muslims reserve Friday as the day of the week for prayer and actually have been interacting with Christians in many capacities, the Catholic Church and the American Red Cross being such close allies with the Islamic government and multi-faith communities of Pakistan. Did you know the Catholic Church’s incredible assistance and aide to all faiths in that region of the world, and the American Red Cross so valiant as to adopt the logo of Crescent and Islamic Green with its dealings in the predominantly Muslim regions of the globe?  

D: Man! Have you noticed how quiet the Republican Party has been for the past 72 hours? Have you heard anything from Hillary Rodham Clinton either? She oversaw the toppling of Gadhafi in Libya, but does she know that there is a stadium in Pakistan named after the authoritarian, Gadhafi Stadium?

M: Dude! Hillary Rodham Clinton is an establishment candidate like every one of the oligarch-appointed Republican nil-wits running for president! She’s got special interests backing her!   

D: Man! The Republican GOP and their acts of terrorism and the corporate Press Corps are trying hard to suppress voter turnout in the 2016 election cycle and the special interests backing Hillary Rodham Clinton are the same as those of the Republican Party’s! The Republicans and Henry Kissinger want to reinstate Benazir Bhutto’s murdering husband Asif Zardari as President of Pakistan, replacing the guy who currently holds the position—President of Pakistan Mamnoon Hussain, who has been in the position since 2013.     

M: Dude! What about Nawaz Sharif? He’s currently the Prime Minister of Pakistan, has been in the position as of 2013 too, and oversaw the construction of many recreation grounds like the sixty-seven-acre park that was hit by a suicide bomber on Easter Sunday in Pakistan. The Republican Party and its oligarchs are so illiterate as to have generalized that only Christians would be out and about celebrating the spring holiday in this particular park. Don’t they understand coexistence? Don’t they know that Muslim households in the United States also celebrate holidays in much the same fashion as other Americans, like Thanksgiving?     

D: Man! They’re too illiterate and culturally backwards to want to have to comprehend sophisticated and multicultural lifestyles in the Middle East and Indo-Pak. I don’t think the oligarch-appointed nil-wits and their terrorists can identify every nation on a physical map! Forget about the bodies of water, these illiterate, culturally backward cowards probably cannot comprehend beyond collating wiping out Muslims across the world with lynching and forced segregation in the shameful history and embarrassing continuation of the John Birch Society and its domestic terrorist network, the Klu Klutz Klan! Today, we’ve got the Koch Klutz Klan in which the oligarchs choose to toss out laborers from substandard work and pay environments inside their conglomerate of companies, citing relocation or shutdown or downgrade of basic jobs—like the situation with Wal-Mart after the company chose to layoff thousands of workers across the country in order to claim that raising minimum wages was detrimental to the overall health of the company, that Wal-Mart could not afford to maintain its labor force, hence, slashing more than one-third of employees at some locations while closing business entirely in other locales. Hillary Clinton was appointed to the Board of Directors of Wal-Mart by Sam Walton in 1986 when her husband was Governor of Arkansas and she remained there until 1992. Alice Walton and the Walton Family Foundation have contributed to Hillary’s 2016 run and have given to the Clinton Foundation. Hillary Clinton has Wal-Mart stock, hence, she is not in tune with increasing the federal minimum wage for American Workers from $7.25 to $15. She says she is with labor unions, but she never addresses Wal-Mart’s Board of Directors’ anti-union efforts back then and today.

M: Dude! Disgusting corporate temper tantrums! The executive hotshots’ political counterparts on Capitol Hill have to be voted out of the political process as soon as possible. Hillary Rodham Clinton is a political counterpart to the executive classes in that she will oversee Republican agendas like reinstating the same bad actors in Pakistan, Zardari and his son Bilawal will wreck havoc on Indo-Pak alongside the shameless genocidal bloke Narendra Modi in India. Hillary Rodham Clinton probably shared her twisted Republican vision in her speeches to Wall Street and that’s what’s keeping her from disclosing the transcripts. Imagine her overseeing the placement of cowards in positions of power abroad in order to endanger lives of citizens everywhere with her whitewashed perspective, gleaned from her husband and their friendship with the Bushes. When you indulge in excessive wealth like the Clintons and Bushes have and choose to go places and do things with either Walker Bush or Jeb Bush, then you have lost all due respect and your intellect as well!

D: Man! Bernie Sanders is the people’s candidate in the Democratic race for the nomination. Everyday folks, including us, have contributed collectively over six million individual contributions averaging $27.01 to the Sanders Campaign. Therefore, the Republicans and Hillary Rodham Clinton cannot cheat through the primaries and caucuses as they have done in Arizona and the South.  

M: Dude! The Democratic National Committee and Hillary Rodham Clinton purposely began the primaries and caucuses in the Southern States to gain advantage with their built stronghold there over Bernie Sanders. However, if these early primary and caucus states had been allowed to hold their primaries and caucuses later, we probably would have seen more of an even distribution of delegates amongst the two Democratic candidates, instead of the clean sweep Clinton carried through that particular region of the United States.

D: Man! People have to wake up to the fact that we’ve got an establishment candidate in Hillary Rodham Clinton who’s got the backing of special interests from Wall Street to the fossil fuels industries to pharmaceutical companies. Hillary Rodham Clinton raises her voice in order to make a point because she is deceiving the American Electorate, voters like you and me, into a terrible final ditch where she speaks as if she’s aligned with President Obama when she really never was. Hillary Rodham Clinton has authoritarian leanings and tendencies that make me suspect she is a dream candidate for the Republican National Committee. Bill Clinton and she have infiltrated the Democratic National Committee with the same dangerous duplicity, Hillary Clinton going so far as to espouse corrupt characters such as Condi Rice from the Bush 43 Admin and Henry Kissinger from the Nixon Admin, while continuing to back Madeleine Albright after the nefarious comment from Albright concerning a special place in hell for women who don’t align with other women.

M: Dude! Howard Dean is quite the fortuneteller; you know? He is repeatedly insisting on television that the next wave of Democratic primaries and caucuses will end up in Hillary’s favor and she will definitely secure the Democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders.  

D: Man! Howard Dean isn’t into cha-cha with ESP, or extrasensory perception. Howard Dean’s only dancing to the C-H-E-A-T, C-H-E-A-T!

M: Dude! The cheat-cheat? Sounds like it would be too much footwork and too much for the waistline!

D: Man! Howard Dean and the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Rodham Clinton are roasting rot and stinking chops while the Republicans are skewering mayhem after mayhem!

Revolutionary change towards greater justice for all in the United States of America!! Feel the Bern!! Birdie Sanders!!



(M)an: Dude! This year’s presidential election cycle is not just about national security. It is about
overall American foreign policy. The Republican Party’s presidential contenders do not have foreign policy proposals that are sound and thorough. Instead, you’ve got Donald Trump inciting violence to the point where the Republican National Committee is seriously considering whether to allow concealed weapons at their convention this summer; you’ve got Mitt Romney winning the government shutdown crackup Ted Cruz, Utah via an anti-Trump Super PAC that goes by the name “Make America Awesome” that also posted salacious modeling pics of Trump’s wife; and then you’ve got John Kasich acting like he’s apart from the other two candidates when in fact he’s also aligned with Trump and Cruz to win the White House for the RNC any which way but honestly.   

(D)ude: Man! Hillary Rodham Clinton wants to lose the general election to Trump or Cruz or Kasich for the purpose of keeping the elite 2% stable and rich, which she and her husband are a part of themselves, while keeping US strapped to conditions that have reduced us from the middle class to the working poor. The Republicans and the Clintons want US to continue down the path we were on when George Walker Bush vacated the White House in 2009. Hillary Rodham Clinton is not willing to speak with dissidents, having stood by her decision to topple Gadhafi in Libya while choosing to speak positively about Henry Kissinger, the guy who oversaw the operation that killed Gadhafi’s daughter decades earlier and never apologized for any wrongdoings on his part, actually claiming then that his actions would prove to prevent further acts of terror in the future. Walter Isaacson golfs with Condi Rice at his Aspen Institute where Kissinger is a regular as are many former and current diplomats. Walter Isaacson wrote the biography on Kissinger in 1992! I believe Henry Kissinger and Condi Rice to be nefarious actors in the history of United States foreign policy and deserving nothing but the fiercest critics.     

M: Dude! Hillary Rodham Clinton deserves nothing but the fiercest criticism while the Democratic National Committee needs to be reprimanded. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Howard Dean and Jennifer Granholm act as if Hillary Rodham Clinton is President of the United States, as if Hillary’s counterterrorism speeches and teleconferences are the last word on foreign policy and only direction forward! And Hillary Clinton’s bought the nonsense as well, addressing Stanford University and then that discussion with Leon Panetta, an active critic of President Obama’s, which concerns me. Bernie Sanders is the only candidate making sense and staying consistent with where he agrees and disagrees with President Obama on the issues.

D: Man! Isn’t labeling some political players as dissidents creating trouble globally? To me, Henry Kissinger and Condi Rice could qualify as dissidents to the world abroad and for good reason! There is only one race and that is the human race, but Hillary Rodham Clinton sees the world from the top down while Bernie feels the bottom rungs’ pains and frustrations. That’s why I choose to feel the Bern!  

M: Dude! I agree and feel the Bern too! Hillary Rodham Clinton mentions free elections in Libya following what happened after the toppling of Gadhafi. But Bernie Sanders takes it a step further in the direction of compassion and care for all God’s creations, noting to Anderson Cooper last Monday that economic opportunities and assistance are needed as well in order for the people in countries like Libya and Israel to rebuild their lives and thrive in their own neck of the woods. Bernie Sanders also brought up the fact that Ted Cruz and the Republican Tea Partiers are wanting to move the United States Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. That’s like endangering the lives of all the residents in that part of the world to get up and move when the ground game is already too volatile for foolish displays of authoritarian nonsense that Ted Cruz and the Republican Tea Partiers believe and trumpet around like tyrants.

D: Man! Hillary Rodham Clinton also trumpets around like a tyrant! Her speechwriters appear to be the same as Jeb Bush’s and Donald Trump’s, have you noticed? She claims, like Jeb and Trump do, that such-and-such millions were spent by her Republican colleagues against her and her team of financiers are always running out of money and the last time I checked, Hillary Clinton’s campaign was in debt by just over a million dollars.

M: Dude! This is the time for more debates and town halls between Hillary and Bernie! Instead, Hillary Clinton has chosen to unnecessarily show off her foreign policy chops when the meat is already rot and stinking! She’d be much better advised to follow Bernie’s recommendations of additional debates and town halls.   

D: Man! This is what happens when the American people decide to allow the midterm elections to slide by without turning out to vote themselves for whatever reason or reasons. You’ve got establishment candidates on both sides of the aisle courting special interests from Wall Street to the fossil fuels industries to pharmaceutical companies, with Bernie Sanders as the one and only exception who’s proving Super-PACs are not pivotal to getting word out about one’s ideas for revolutionary change towards greater justice for all in American society!

M: Dude! The higher the voter turnouts in these upcoming primaries and caucuses, the greater the chances for Bernie winning further contests and US having a contested Democratic convention!

D: Man! Feel the Bern! Birdie Sanders!

"Mercy Triumphs Over Judgment"




(D)ude: Man! Muslim-Europeans are a heavily incarcerated population in Denmark similarly to what Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders brings to light at his campaign rallies and interviews about mass incarceration rates amongst African-American and Hispanic-American youth in the United States of America, that we need to give our minority children access to educational and employment avenues instead of direct routes to crime and imprisonment.  

(M)an: Dude! There is a veil of egalitarianism cloaked over Europe that is actually riddled with tears, both shorn and shed. Do the American people not understand that the 2016 election will determine the fate of all disenfranchised people across the globe? The Republican Party of the United States of America already controls Congress due to low voter turnouts in 2010 and 2014; if given the White House, the Republicans will repeat the George Walker Bush era of catastrophic horrors- keep in mind that the Republicans have already begun their reign of terrorism across Europe beginning in Brussels, Belgium in the hopes of distracting people from the policies that the Republican Party is implementing across the United States at the local and state levels.   

D: Man! Beginning in Paris, France with the Charlie Hebdo shootings on January 7, 2015 and continuing with the November 13, 2015 attacks in Paris and Saint-Denis, France.

M: Dude! I stand corrected. Thank you. Likewise, this notion that Muslims escape their nations of origin spiritedly is absurd and wrong. There are a lot of Muslims around the world who look at their nations of origin—wrecked because of Nixon, Ford, Reagan, and Bush 41, and Bush 43’s interventionism that is still not recognized by the American Press Corps as manufactured with the purpose to destroy infrastructure and denigrate entire peoples—and shed tears for the shorn tears in the fabric of their lives that is Islam. The only way to heal the wounds of dastardly policy-making is for the world to convene and produce an English translation of the Holy Quran/Koran as King James did of the Holy Bible in the time of Shakespeare. King James was brilliantly eccentric and his deciding to convene scholars from the ecclesiastical to the ecumenical to standardize the Holy Bible was and remains a feat like no other.   

D: Man! Imagine the Republican Party traveling back in time to chastise King James as an effeminate male, or insisting that the First Five Books [Old Testament] of the Holy Bible not be translated because they comprise the Torah that is heeded by the practitioners of Judaism! Forget that the Good News Gospel that comprises the New Testament comes to us from disciples of Christ, much the exact way the teachings of Socrates come to us from his students Plato and Aristotle! The Prophet Mohammed was a student of the Old and New Testament! The Holy Quran/Koran was intended to guide the process of integrating caravan cultures into settled civilizations and laid incredible groundwork of inclusion to maneuver from the earthiness of the past and present and move in solidarity, together, forward in that particular part of the world.

M: Dude! Pope Francis’ latest book has the perfect message in its title and that is The Name of God is Mercy.

D: Man! The Republican Party is merciless! Absolutely primitive! Bernie Sanders and Hillary Rodham Clinton need to consolidate! The “silent majority” that Trump claims to be representing can be summed up as the same poor white folks that are dying because they vote for the Republican Party and against their best interests. Poor white folks like us need to comprehend a truth about the Republican Party and that truth is that the GOP politicians are in politics for the purposes of pick-pocketing local, state, and national government.  

M: Dude! Hillary Rodham Clinton is of the elite class herself and I wonder whether her granddaughter will be able to love without restrictions made upon her by her maternal grandfather. You know that “Guess who’s coming to dinner?” hesitation that the characters in the movie by that exact title overcame? Starring Spencer Tracy and Katherine Hepburn and Sidney Poitier and Katherine Houghton?

D: Man! But could the mother in that film, Katherine Hepburn, have given her blessings and sent the two engaged lovebirds onwards? I wonder about that because Spencer Tracy’s character, the father of the bride, is the one who delivers the final monologue in the film espousing the marriage of his daughter to Sidney Poitier’s character, the widower physician.

M: Dude! All these questions will haunt US if any of the Republican Party’s presidential candidates manage to attain residence in the White House this election cycle. There’s too much on the line! All lives are in peril!

D: Man! Speaking of policies that the Republican Party is implementing, the State of Alabama disallowed the City of Birmingham from increasing its minimum wage to $10.10 an hour. According to CBS News and the Associated Press, the Alabama Senate and philandering Governor Robert Bentley passed legislation and signed it into law on February 25, 2016 “to strip cities of their ability to set hourly pay requirements” and cited the Republican legislature and governor as arguing that operating costs would rise for businesses if the minimum wage did not remain consistent statewide. The minimum wage is the federal minimum of $7.25 in Alabama!

M: Dude! The Republican Party is going to kill American Democracy by privatizing and obstructing everything at the local, state, and national levels of government. Even Hillary Rodham Clinton plans to dismantle the achievements of the previous administration, already citing Obamacare as having been Harry Truman’s vision and “Hillarycare” before the 2010 passage of the Affordable Care Act. But what the American voters need to understand is that President Obama actually delivered results! The American people need to nominate Bernie Sanders as the Democratic presidential candidate if they want to be able to understand a word of what the next president communicates to them, the first step in getting results. Hillary Rodham Clinton will utilize Republican speechwriters and diplomats like her husband.

D: Man! She already is! Maybe Hillary Rodham Clinton’s taking money from the Koch Brothers and Sheldon Adelson? Where have all the Kennedys and the real, not teabag, Democrats gone? Ted Kennedy detected the Republican slant in Bill Clinton and how that would ruin Hillary’s chances to win in 2008.

M: Dude! Feel the Bern!
