It is a satirical song that not only examines Ms. "It's very easy, almost therapeutic for an artist, to play some aggressive music and rant about the indiscretions of the members of the Bush administration," says Rad Thought. "I thought it might be clever to package the same provocative lyrics in a non-threatening style of music so mainstream listeners could get the message."Also included in the CD is Midlife Tragedy, a sad tale about a man approaching middle age who is still a young Punk at heart. Rice's demeanor while testifying at the 9-11 Commission but also attempts to develop a romantic relationship between Ms. Rice, a staunch Neo-Conservative and the protagonist of the song, a left leaning, self-proclaimed, "dove." Asked why he chose Condoleezza Rice as a subject for a Pop/Rock song Rad Thought replied, "Because of her charm and elusive nature she doesn't get enough "credit" for the mess we are in as a nation; plus, the song needed a love interest and she's got a better set of legs than Dick Cheney." Rad Thought chose to use lyrical humor and a Pop/Rock motif as a vehicle for highlighting the serious content of the song.
