Perhaps it's the Speaker of the House (the fella named Major who is some kind of doctor) that the Wicked Witch of the West is waiting to hear from before she sees fit to begin prosecutorial proceedings against all the violators of the Public Disclosure Act. But that too is very unlikely to happen because Major seems beholden to the corrupt Christie-led PLP government whenever push comes to shove in the House of Assembly. Poor guy has probably been subtly told to cross the line in his decisions whenever absolutely necessary for the PLP to be favoured or else.

Perhaps Bowe should start his crusade against government corruption, fraud and waste by devoting to the financial reporting requirements of parliamentarians under the Public Disclosure Act the same time and energy he has devoted to the financial reporting requirements of businesses and the self-employed under the Business License Tax Act. His fellow professional accountants seem to be all over the wall in terms of the standards being applied in preparing the financial disclosures of those parliamentarians who endeavour to be onside the law. The Bahamas Institute of Chartered Accountants has a golden opportunity here to do the public a great service by ensuring proper accounting and assurance reporting standards are agreed by all concerned and then adhered to - but will BICA step up to plate on such an important initiative?

Our Attorney General, the Wicked Witch of the West (Allyson Maynard-Gibson), is quite content to put poor Bahamians in Fox Hill Prison for years if caught stealing (because they cannot find a job) to buy medicine or food for themselves or their sick or hungry young children, but she does not prosecute the political elite of the PLP and their business cronies when it is clear they have broken the laws of our country. Instead she goes out of her way to protect the political elite of the PLP and their business cronies no matter what crimes they may have committed. We have fellow Bahamians in Fox Hill prison today for having stolen small amounts of money or goods as the only possible means of obtaining food or medicine for themselves or their very young children. They sadly could not get one of those many jobs that had been promised by the PLP and more likely lost the job they had because of the manner in which the corrupt Christie-led PLP government has run our economy right into the ground. Yet all around us we see the political elite of the PLP and their business cronies stealing from the Bahamian people by way of massive fraud and corruption, but, thanks to the Wicked Witch of the West, none of them ever get prosecuted for their major crimes. The evil devious Maynard-Gibson, as Christie's favourite puppet, is clearly someone not to be trusted by the Bahamian people

another serious concern: If the newborn baby of a Bahamian woman born on American soil is automatically Bahamian from the very instant moment of birth, then the baby could conceivably be denied U.S. citizenship by birth on the basis that the U.S. only permits dual nationality under very limited circumstances and never automatically by birth. Uncle Sam never accepts the granting of U.S. citizenship to dual nationals who may be considered or deemed to have sworn their allegiance to another country. The mother could of course then apply for her baby to be an American but that would be no different than the Bahamian mother of a newborn baby born in the Bahamas applying for her baby to be an American. Perhaps the U.S. government is behind some of the wording of these proposed amendments to our constitution and the Bahamian government just doesn't want us Bahamians to know about it. That's a frightening thought, but certainly would explain why the proposed amendments would allow same-sex marriages which some states in the U.S. are already experimenting with.

Lime green coloured Greentea we presume!

Just don't make the mistake of turning your back to either Fred or Fred!

Yup, ya gat dat right! He's one of those lawyers like Maynard-Gibson who have brought disrepute to the letters QC after a Bahamian lawyer's name.

Georgie Portie is a standout embarrassment to all Bahamians, especially Exumians, alive today. The Royal Commission of Inquiry held in the 1980's as a result of the scourge of government corruption in our country tied to Pindling's association with world renowned international drug dealers proved that Georgie Porgie was "on the take" for all that he could get for ensuring a blind eye was turned to the use of Exuma's airstrips by Colombian drug dealers.
