Untrue Condi Chasing a Beau Called Peace

“The word is out, (sing along if you’d like) all over town, Condi’s been seen, out running ‘round …”
Yes, it’s true, Condi’s been untrue. Who’s the lucky guy? Well, it’s not exactly a guy. Whoa, wait a minute, say it ain’t so! You wouldn’t want to shake the foundations of Colorado Springs. Well, it ain’t so, but what she is accused of is just as abhorrent, maybe more so, than someone proving Condi is one of those people who loves her own kind.
What is Condi accused of ? Dare I say it? She’s been running ’round pursuing a path of peace over war. In fact, you could say she has been accused of loving her own kind--humankind. Condi’s main sin right now is that she has continued negotiating with North Korea over its nuclear program while the xenophobes in the administration call day after day, louder and louder, for some kind of hostile action against … well just about anyone. Certainly someone needs to be blown up.
Interestingly, in recent days Condi has been speaking very publicly about her Christian faith. Maybe God has been getting her ear. Maybe God’s voice is convincing her of the futility of our current antagonistic strategies. Maybe she has been reminded that nothing upsets God more than to look upon creation and see violence everywhere. Maybe she is finally ready to stand up and say the time for peace is now, and when it finally arrives, it will not come from the barrel of a gun.
