Perry Christie not only believes he is the only and only savior for the Bahamas, who deserves one other chance as prime minister of the country, but he is dancing to his own praises of rescuing Bah Mar from bankruptcy and turning it in to one of the most amazing projects on this side of the earth. But while Christie claims people say he created a miracle, the fact is christie and his goon squad, meddled in a private company's affairs. He helped wrestle Bah Mar from its rightful owner and the man whose dream, and hard work, and dedication, and sacrifice it was to make it into the magnificent project Christie admits it is and dump it squarely in the hands of the Chinese, who now seems to be having problems managing and keeping the doors open to other properties in the country. it was sickening to hear this man brag about how much he has done to save this country and to save Bah mar when he has raided the treasury to fix the problem he almost single handed created at Bah Mar. And while most financial institutions in the country are producing healthy returns for their shareholders, BoB continues to bleed uncontrollably after being raped and ravished by the Christie government. If Chrisite is so proud of his performance as prime minister and so sure he is the only right man for the job, he should top blowing his horn and let the Bahamian electorate decide in just a few short months. He claims he takes offence to his PLP party being called crooked and corrupt, yet he takes the stage and feeds the public half truths and misinformation.

If you could say what was the most dramatic moment or most impressive thing that came out of the PLP convention, what would they be? Well most people expected Perry Christie to be re-elected as leader of the party so that did not surprise anyone. And since so many saw this as a mere exercise of putting David up against Goliath the margin of victory impressed only the gullible. Political grandstanding, not only to make Perry Christie the most favored leader of his party but as the only great savior of the Bahamas. And unfortunately with a weak and barely visible opposition, many will buy into it. Most of the speeches were political rhetoric, half truths and grandstanding. While they continue to blame the former government for the bare cupboards and broke condition the country in, they failed to tell you that four years of the FNM's governance was during one of the deepest recessions in the modern history of the world. Yet they managed to hold the country together and get major projects completed and left many others on the drawing board. Like the Sandy Bottom project that outfitted the Defence Force with new ships and dredged harbours, or the replacement of Bahamasair's fleet. Obie Wilchombe's address was purely idol worship to god Perry Christie and Perry Gomez's address was dry as a pack of crackers and equally as boring. But the greatest and most disappointing speech must have come from Bernard Nottage, as Minister of National Security. While he riddled of how many millions the government has spent here and there and while he bragged about how they have increased officer numbers at the defence force, immigration, police and at the prison, everyone wanted to know what plans his government had to stop the carnage of young men (some 550 plus on his watch this term alone). His only utterance was these were a small group of prolific offenders killing each other and he did mention that there are laws on the books to deal with gangs, but it is not being enforced. Another disapointment is his praise and support of the "Shock Treatment" program. This means of 'treating' young offenders by exposing them to prisions and hardened criminals ;has been determined ineffective and has been discontinued in the country that created the program. The shock treatment is determined to be only temporary and after young persons become exposed to prison and prison life, amny go on to become hardened and/or violent criminals. Most psychologists believe that positive enforcement programs and spiritual enrichment are more effective and it is better to keep young people as far away from criminals ans prisons as possible.

So now Sears will get his MP's together and go to the governor general with a vote of no confidence against Christie? Right?

And prices continue to climb$5.00 for a loaf of bread $9.00 for a gallon of milk. Gas is almost to $4.5

Lying and stealing and corruption leads to killings and murder. Blood touching blood. The ending of one murder is the beginning of another. They lie to the people and overburdened them with taxes.

Total hypocrisy: National convention in second day and the serious issue of crime not yet addressed even while young men continue to be dropped like flies. Blood touching blood and business as usual.

The Chinese have to justify their actions in kicking the original developer, Sarkis Izmirilian, to the curb. So they have to poke as many holes in his plans for Bah Mar as possible. Bah Mar has a lot of alternatives other than competition with Atlantis for high end clients and the two properties can easily compliment and supplement each other. Not everyone that comes to the Bahamas can afford Atlantis, and not everyone who cannot afford Atlantis does not want to live on a hotel campus with the amenities of casino, beach access, choices of restaurants, even golf course and convention centre. Bah Mar has potential and can easily adapt itself to attract other than low end or the top notch tourist.

Are unions obsolete or only their bosses so not 2017 ready?

Last night Christie try to work Voodoo to 'fix' the unemployment numbers and #jobceation, But Michael Halkitis said the unemployment number was at 21,000 when the PLP came to power. Christie says the PLP created 32,000 jobs. The Department of Statistics says unemployment is still at 11.5% or 24,000 persons unemployed. So even when you add the 24,000 or so students that came out of school and deduct the 15,000 or so persons that retired or otherwise left the work force, the PLP created more jobs than there were unemployed people. So tell us then.why is the unemployment figure still at 24,000.
.
Then Michael Halkitis come back and tries to give account for the near $1 billon in VAT money. But most of the items he listed, like re-fleeting BahamasAir, new ships for the defence force, NHI funding etc, was suppose to come from the regular revenue of the government, like customs duties, business licence fees, property taxes car licences etc., and so he hd the whole convention chanting "das where zinnia VAT money gone" And it gone alright. Gone like the wind.

And the biggest clown of the evening had to be Alfred Gray. That man and the truth are so much strangers. One cannot even double pay the truth to keep friends with Gray. He claims that no other political party came up with original plans and projects to benefit the Bahamian people, while in the same breath, laying claim to two of the biggest projects that was started under the previous government. Hopefully Christie dem can tell the Bahamian people why more murders have happened under Perry Christie ad prime minister than any other prime minister, and why more murders have happened under than the PLP than was recorder under the government of all the other political parties in the Bahamas combined.

The sacrificial lamb for the case of the appearance of democracy..no doubt!
