Embarrassed . . .

It's hard to describe the embarrassment
That I feel when he opens his mouth
It's cute when kids speak their inexperienced hearts
From grown men it's intellectual drought

Would be different if low-level functionary were he
Or remained in the entertainment field
But the office should stand for some principles high
Which elude the banal psyche he wields

Mouth . . .

(from https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/erik-wemple/wp/2016/06/13/fox-friends-welcomes-trumps-islamophobia-obama-slanders/)
". . . objectionable suggestions were coming out of the mouth of presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, and they met little resistance from the pliant crew of the Fox News morning program. The topic, of course, was the Orlando nightclub “The Pulse,” where Omar Mateen, who expressed loyalty to the Islamic State, massacred 49 other people Saturday night. “There are many, many people — thousands of people already in our country that are sick with hate and people that are around him — Muslims — know who they are, largely, they know who they are,” said Trump. “They have to turn them in. They know who they are. They see ’em. Like in the case of San Bernardino, there were bombs all over the floor. Many people saw the bombs. Those bombs weren’t there as play toys and they could have been reported long before San Bernardino took effect. Nobody’s reporting these people.” . . . “Fox & Friends” could have questioned whether it’s fair to hold “Muslims” — a population of 1.6 billion people worldwide — responsible for the actions of a single criminal Muslim. Are Christians held to that standard of self-policing? . . . "

Civility . . .

So Petrov says he has nothing against gay people.  Two cabinet ministers and his very own cousin are actually gay.  But he will not abolish the anti-gay law because of the people and their religious beliefs. Is this REALLY why he will not abolish the anti-gay law?

So while Clare is resting in Michael's cell, she has had an arduous day, she falls asleep.  As Michael wrestles with all the facets of his actions and the repercussions upon his loved ones he obviously finds them too much with which to cope.  He takes Clare's scarf and hangs himself from the prison bars in the window of the cell.

As the somber U.S. and Russian Presidents gather to announce their progress in peace talks, and sadly too, Michael's death, they allow Clare (who made the trip as representative of the United Nations) to make the announcement of the latter.  After the 'proper' announcement, Clare takes a pregnant pause and lets Petrov have it challenging him to abolish this 'stupid law' to the astonishment of everyone.

Petrov, of course, denounces the peace plan.

Was Clare correct in speaking her mind to the press and the public about what she felt was an injustice resulting from ignorance or narrow-mindedness, or should she have simply SHUT her mouth?

Fifteen. . .

Fifteen minutes of glory
Maybe less
What I wouldn't give for the chance
To confess
All my intimate secrets
All my hopes and my desires
I don't care just how valid
You think that they are
They've been mine for a long long time
And I'm not ashamed of them

Shut up Joe
How do you really know
What's going down
How can you tell if there's a problem somewhere
To be found
We all need to gather round
To help everybody else to see
That running your mouth aloud
Makes it that much more difficult
For you and me
And our integrity

Went to work at the factory
At fourteen
Thought I'd finish my schooling
Sometime in between
Drunken weekends and futile street fights
And the visits to my best girl
But the time slipped away
I've got bills here to pay
I've got small ones depending on me
My vision is limited

Shut up Joe
How do you really know
What's going down
How can you tell if there's a problem somewhere
To be found
We all need to gather round
To help everybody else to see
That running your mouth aloud
Makes it that much more difficult
For you and me
And our integrity

All my life I've known
I'd want to say
Something to my
Fellow man today
Couldn't let the facts
Get in the way.

We weren't that well acquainted
Never were
An occasional run-in
We preferred
There's one thing that we both believe in
Heard it over and over again
It was something about
All the fondness we felt
How the heart can't miss what's not around
If the mind doesn't value it

Shut up Joe
How do you really know
What's going down
How can you tell if there's a problem somewhere
To be found
We all need to gather round
To help everybody else to see
That running your mouth aloud
Makes it that much more difficult
For you and me
And our integrity


Integrity
