Bill Clinton was president when his wife was secretary of state. The office of one was not held accountable for the other. John F. Kennedy was president and he appointed his brother attorney general. They both wanted to clean up the mob and organized crime. But their offices did not overstep each other. Unfortunately, both of them lost their lives in their efforts.

***National Security Minister Marvin Dames was adamant there was nothing personal against any of the three officers slated to go into early retirement***

Obviously you missed the part that says "early retirement." Or maybe you intentionally missed it to make a statement that will otherwise be irrelevant.

If you can’t smell a rat by now then maybe it’s because you still smelling the four arson fires at BPL. Why they just looking to get equity after the fact. Why are they still buying engines that burns a fuel that is banned in most of the world. Except for use in industrial settings. Is the LNG story just a blindfold.

Why you think so many white boys get fire or gone to jail under Donald Trump? It’s the economy stupid

John says...

So when he was in government what did he do to fix the Bahamas Economic Model . First it was the ‘white privilege’ where white Bahamians aka Conchy Joes or more specifically ‘da Bay Street boys’ or ‘The white knights ‘ So they had control of the political power in the country. And by controlling politics, they also controlled the economy. They passed laws that were forced on the average Bahamians but laws that they themselves didn’t intend to abide by. Then as the economy grew and expanded some over the hill small (Black ) businessmen got some advantages, mostly through politics, that allowed him to compete and find a niche in the market. So the Bay Street were displeased and displaced, so they invited the foreigners (foreign direct investment) to come in and further compete with and eradication’s the over the hill businesses. The Bay Street White Boys moved to Abaco or away from the Bahamas. Those who remained found they could also not compete and eventually had to close shop. Government in the maintime through ignorance or being goosied to do So continued to heap up and pile up taxes on local businesses and local Bahamians while foreign businesses got all the perks, the exemptions, the tax breaks. Now when one rides around the Bahamas, there are five closed And shuttered businesses for every one that is still open. There are thousands of Bahamians living without electricity. At least one third of all mortgages are at least 90 days past due. Our phone companies are foreign controlled so is BPL and all the major hotels . The cruise ships come and direct their passengers. Now what was your question again?

Five months! If you’re alive and have freedom to do so, the one person a Bahamian will call is their mother. October was when the weather was really bad on the seas.

Well I was actually thinking along the lines of measles. Just a few hours exposure. Or maybe it’s just some traumatized person looking for attention. Seeing how long they can do this and get away with it.
