Hey TalRussell I think you are missing that Baha Mar is just another business! Sure it's larger, and sure it might employ many, but it's no different then any other foreign investment in principle. Our government and our people should stop talking like it's theirs; and surely the extra wealthy Bahamians could have teamed up to raise the 900 million that Izmirlian has put in, but clearly none are interested. Also, if every one of us cared to invest, say about $2500.00 each , we could have raised the 900mil. But nope we were not interested. So leave your thoughts on someone else's assets to yourself, and if you want to invest to "save this country" go ahead.

Folks, please tell me which public figures we have that you would consider respectable, honourable and fit to represent the people? Please name names.

Hardly a situation that's comparable TalRussel, and notice how much more gental Papa Huber is with his words.
So I don't think you've made a valid point! However should you have said neither are suitable leaders for this nation, I would agree; though both are unsuitable for different reasons.

just for fun, lets all try and name a politician that we think is respectable?

I got nothing, anyone else out there come up with any names?

I can't believe anyone would call out Izmirlian for disrespecting the PM. I can't imagine there being many people who actually can respect Christie; what has he done to earn anyones respect?

Perhaps we can pick on Izmirlian for being rude with our government, but we can't say he should respect the non respectable. Perhaps he could treat the douche bags cordially and keep his opinions and comments to himself, but it's not as though he's letting out secrets. After all anyone who knows anything about our country knows plenty about how bad our governments are and have been.

Maybe we should wonder just how it is that Izmirlian actually got sucked in to the point that he's spending years of his life, and nearly a billion dollars here?

Perhaps Izi is now questioning his own sanity?

Our ignorant people and government are treating and talking about foreigners sot bad it's as if we feel so entitled that the foreigners should just get off their planes in Miami and send their money to us "just because were bahamians in the bahamas"

I suggest everyone wake up a bit, our islands are dog ugly on a regional scale, flat baron land with only imported palms. Sure we have beaches, but most are on the less developed or almost undeveloped islands. Go to any island in the Caribbean and you will find mountains, rain forests, volcanos, actual good looking forts to look, friendly people, many affordable places to eat and have a drink, live bands with caribbean music , etc etc

We offer rude immigration, rude taxi drivers, junk old beater taxis, rude hotel staff, expensive rooms, expensive food that is quite often not good at all, and poor service.

I one can set their fake pride aside long enough to have an objective look as us, you can surely wonder why people come here, and realize that we should be very thankful, and feel lucky that were in the tourist game at all.

On the plus side, we still have a chance to turn it around, but it will require much humbling of the people of the mediocre nation.

Well_mudda_take_sic Hi, I notice you mention Bowe and the Chamber of Commerce; I just thought I'd send you a note with some history and the evolution of the Chamber of Commerce world wide.
The Chamber of Commerce is an institution in almost every nation of the world. It's members goals are all aligned; and basically the goal is to align government, education & media to support the "interests of big business".
You can google the "Powell Papers" or "Powell Memorandum", put out in Aug of 1973.
here's a link: http://law2.wlu.edu/powellarchives/page…
You can google "Powell Papers" PDF to read the actual documents.
Anyhow this is the foundation of the Chamber of commerce's world wide doctrine, including here at home. If you read it, and look for similarities in our system you will soon see the Chamber of Commerce is only worthy of being closed for good, and certainly not worthy of mention when someone wants something to be for the people of this nation, or any other.

Doesn't a PM have to actually earn his respect? Or is the PM owed respect?
Last I checked, a PM is elected, based on what he says he will do for the country. Being elected PM, (or MP etc), is an impressive display of society's approval and respect, but that approval and initial respect lasts only as long as a PM remains true to his words from the election platform. Should a PM be dishonest, or dishonest and completely useless (and any other they public official for that matter) they do not qualify to retain any "respect".

Additionally, the use of the word "honourable" before the name and title of most public figures most often is a complete farce, might more aptly be considered an oxymoron, most certainly abuse of the language. The "honourable" has value when applied honestly and used in appropriate circumstance. The prefix "honourable" has be lavished more often on our most disgusting, not distinguished citizens; who happen to somehow be in public office.

Some of these politicians spout off with a dialect similar to that used by degenerate criminals, less the four letter words perhaps; their verbal diarrhea as ejected during their tantrum rants amounts to the most disgraceful image of the Bahamas ever painted!

The fact that one might call for automatic respect, should clearly illustrate how disillusioned and arrogant one really is. Truth be told, most Bahamians are completely fed up with, and hold complete disdain for these disgusting lowlife thieving scumbags public officials (elected or not). These same officials, have essentially proven to be unworthy of even the food they eat!

If there was a simple avenue to recall public officials, elected or not, how many of these goons would still hold an office?

One thing is for certain, no public official is willing to be accountable to the people, despite the efforts spent creating that illusion. And therefore, no public official will ever allow for the creation of a simple avenue of recall, lest he/she cut off his own head!
