You sure that's a picture of Christie? He looked different in his election posters.

Yeah, McCartney's dem run outta the hair dye he like to use...........

bottox only lasts a while

*Re-post:* Christie must think we deserve the financially beaten down country he and his corrupt former cabinet ministers and their equally corrupt family members and cronies have left us with. To be all-forgiving and sympathetic to past senior officials at the highest level of what was a despicably corrupt government, one that has caused so much misery for so many Bahamians, especially the more vulnerable very young and very old, simply smells of the kind of Christianity that so many self-processed Christians in our country today hide behind whenever it is convenient for them to do so. BJ never once spoke out about all of the crimes and wrongdoing that went on right under his nose, nor did he choose to divorce himself from the corruption, preferring instead to play the role of a faithful soldier. You don't idolize such men on their passing nor do you throw out their bad and only look at their good, as if somehow the latter justifies forgiveness of the former. A civilized society has no room for "feel good" hypocrisy, even the mourning kind. As for Christie, Maynard-Gibson, Baltron Bethel and all the others like them, judgement has already been made and Lucifer now awaits with fiery breath at what will be their eternal abode of damnation!

Amen!

Exactly.

Once again Perry can take any issue and make it about him. What a sad old man.

He wasn't a member of Robin Hood's gang who stole for the poor, he was a member of Pindling and Perry's gang who are nan but a bunch of hoodrat Lyin tiefs!!!

So Mr. Crisco Butt, why did you spread lies about Nottage during the PLP campaign when he opposed you -- calling him an abortionist (because of his medical specialty) and calling his wife a whore (because she was an entertainer). Let's here you speak out of your other face. The pain of that smear campaign drove him out of the PLP, but then he showed his true colours as a vomit swimmer, just like you.

Hold on... Perry wants the Minister of National Security under whose tenure the county has suffered the most murders ever to be named a national hero? That's a whole new level of crazy, even for that joke of a former PM.

If that is a recent pic of Perry Christie we all have cause for concern: they may be dying (at least spiritually) faster than we can bury them.

As for B J Nottage: "“There is only one way to fight, and that's dirty. Clean gentlemanly fighting will get you nowhere but dead, and fast. Take every cheap shot, every low blow, absolutely kick people when they're down, and maybe you'll be the one who walks away.”
― Jeaniene Frost, Halfway to the Grave

“The dead could only speak through the mouths of those left behind, and through the signs they left scattered behind them.”
― Robert Galbraith, The Cuckoo's Calling

The Road Not Taken - Poem by Robert Frost

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Signs of major stress!

Don't worry Perry ........... You too will soon die, so we would not have to "lie about you" ..... smh

Someone suppose to feel some sympathy here??? Perry, nothing you say can change the fact that Bahamians feel betrayed how you and your evil government robbed this country blind, while keeping the poor people dumb. I hope you and your kind suffer for the rest of your life. One down... several more to go!

Wow what a difference 2 months make. Perry seems so frail. he was being propped up just like bj,but now the shine is gone,look at what we hae left.

Man the former PM must be taking this election loss really hard. He looks terrible.

I have a major issue with the accolades he's putting on the late Doctor. I would like to know what advances Dr. Nottage made in National Security? I recall from the moment he got in the chair, he was dodging the press like nothing refusing to answer their questions about crime.... that is, when he wasn't sleeping. He hardly did any major press conferences or press releses (outside of the "we beefin' up patrols rhetoric") even when the public outcry on crime was at its peak. Mind you, I'm not saying he wasn't a great politician in his heyday, but man lets not beef this thing up to make him look like he did anything major during the past 5 years when we all know he was missing in action most of the time because you gat a guilt complex for how you screwed up our country and cost your party the election all because you, like Dr. Nottage, didn't know when to hang it up.

Never mind you folks will be singing a different tune very soon. The man is sad he has lost
a good friend. soon you all will see where roc wit doc will take the Bahamas. Why did he go
to a foreign Country at the expense of the tax payers to talk bad about the Bahamas . He should** have sent the Out spoken QC who never has anything good to say about the Bahamas or its people . He would have done it for free. Mr; Christie has seen the years
God has allotted to him. Many on this site may not be so lucky, mean spirited FNMs..

If the PLP was so bad, Bahamians will learn soon enough how good the FNM is.

Anything but PGC and crew!!!!

go away

Chrisite's Photo reminds of the poem 'Elergy in a country church yard", by Thomas Gray:

"Let not Ambition mock their useful toil,
Their homely joys, and destiny obscure;
Nor Grandeur hear with a disdainful smile
The short and simple annals of the poor.

The boast of heraldry, the pomp of pow'r,
And all that beauty, all that wealth e'er gave,
Awaits alike th' inevitable hour.
The paths of glory lead but to the grave.

Nor you, ye proud, impute to these the fault,
If Mem'ry o'er their tomb no trophies raise,
Where thro' the long-drawn aisle and fretted vault
The pealing anthem swells the note of praise.

Can storied urn or animated bust
Back to its mansion call the fleeting breath?
Can Honour's voice provoke the silent dust,
Or Flatt'ry soothe the dull cold ear of Death?
*****
2. THE EPITAPH
Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
A youth to Fortune and to Fame unknown.
Fair Science frown'd not on his humble birth,
And Melancholy mark'd him for her own.

Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere,
Heav'n did a recompense as largely send:
He gave to Mis'ry all he had, a tear,
He gain'd from Heav'n ('twas all he wish'd) a friend.

No farther seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode,
(There they alike in trembling hope repose)
The bosom of his Father and his God.

Comrade Prime Minister Christie, my advice is you're getting older so you shouldn't waste a single day giving really a good damn (care) about anything anymore critics have say. Time start enjoying ya elderly statesman's years with your family and close friends. Reconnect more often with ya close friend and law partner to eat lots healthy boiled fish - whilst enjoying good laughs with Papa Hubert - who also needs some help letting go of times in power past.
Take care ya self former PM. Time to leave the business of the party to a new generation of PLP's. History will record you the way it wants see you and that's just politics.

From all I got to observe , A National Hero would have:

Enforced the death penalty

Not lied repeatedly to the public that murder was down when it was in fact up

Built a bigger prison instead of a jail sports complex then letting more out on parol with ankle bracelets

The school to prison pipeline show had divided response

Would not have the most murders of any term under his watch with no plan and not step down

Would have a sex offenders registry

Would not have turned his back on aching mothers protesting or refused to hear the leader of FOAM who's life was in danger because of whatever

Would have cleaned up the police force

Would have worked more with the commissioner on his concerns of dangerous repeat offenders being let go

Probably not taken grenades from the Chinese without letting us know that it's not intended for us

At least he mentioned the gangs in parliament by name after social media kept stating the obvious.

Good thing for him there's the previous years however they went.

Hmm, BJ was a much loved physician, he represented the Bahamas in track and he served as a politician for many years, but that doesn't make him a national hero. In fact it would be a great time for the Minnis administration's culture department to produce the criteria for what makes a national hero. Right now it appears we confuse it with name recognition and longevity. I'd think it would have to involve something about moving the Bahamas forward in some way as a basic. "Forward" would have to be qualified

heroes, living legends, icons, caciques all abound in the bahamas.

i think they named 50 living legends several years in row until they ran out.

in her book, patrcia meicholas said bahamians are obsessed with beauty contests.

they are really obsessed with awards and honours and trophies.

As to how he looks in the photo, nothing wrong with getting older, aging or trying to maintain your appearance when you get there. He's 70+ the fact that he can do that silly dance is pretty good. Would be great if he lost the stomach. Him and Ingraham on a joint fitness program. I like that idea, commercials showing them exercising, public service spots, eating habits, modified Bahamian dishes, progress reports. Health and fitness at any age. Ask them Dr Sands.

I'd like to see some overweight police and defence force officers on the program too. Obesity is a national security risk. "Literally" when the policeman can't outrun the criminal.

Comrade ThisIsOurs, that silly shuffle dance is the former PM Christie's registered trademark. I would buy admission tickets watch him do da shuffle. Now, when it comes to his former law partner Papa Hubert - I am not sure if you will be able to unstuck Papa from his love Bamboo Shack's Chicken n Bag. I does want wish both former law partners and their wives a long and healthy sets remaining years in retirement from the hustle of politics.

But can you imagine the impact if Papa did? He doesn't have to give up
Bamboo Shack entirely, he just can't eat it every day.

Comrade ThisIsOurs, If you want create new enemy just you get between Papa Hubert and his Bamboo Shack. At KFC - it's finger lickin good. At the Bamboo - "it's nothing better watch than Papa's sucking technique going down on them Bamboo chicken bones." He good!

ROTFL. I dont want Papa for no enemy lol.

Brazil’s former President Lula da Silva found guilty of corruption

http://fox2now.com/2017/07/13/brazils-f…

How many former Bahamian politicians will be found guilty of corruption?

I hope a lot more in time.

Christie looks like a zombie

When you have nothing else, hide behind the dead. What a pathetic rant. If there were any justice in this world he would go straight to jail!

Disagree. If there were any justice in this world Christie would go straight to hell !!

When is the Police going to arrest Perry for his corruption and misfeasance during the past 5 years?????? ............ He was CEO of the Cabinet and Minister of Finance ....... Why prosecute the small fries like Dorsette, when the one who was the Leader sits by unscathed???? ....... Or are we all mercifully hoping that he soon dies like BJ???? ....... He does not deserve a State funeral at our expense after what has been revealed since May 10, 2017 ..... Ahhhh, well
