But if this were addressed in that manner, Commissar Fred would not get his mug in the news and could not demagogue his favorite issue, which is evil foreigners, particularly evil foreigners from that imperialist power next door.

This is hilarious. Transparency? Fred Mitchell? Deport before testimony that would expose his fascist department? Fred shows the transparency of his good pals the Castro Brothers. The transparency of the Gulag!

Shane may not know what planet he is on, but at least we can be sure he knows what time it is. After all he still retains that very expensive wrist watch gifted by his now dead "close family friend" who was expressing her gratitude over the expeditious way her residency application was handled.

All as easily predicted. Chapter 11 in U.S. court was only hope for this project. Liquidation was predictable disaster and time has run out. Assets, both physical and intangible, are rapidly degrading. In six months it will be a teardown. All for what? Perhaps to hide from public dealings between powerful persons in the Bahamas and the Chinese contractor and bank which U.S. Courts would have exposed? What other reason could there be? This liquidation strategy was doomed from the outset. All the promises made to find a new investor and to have the property open and running soon are risible.

It's admittedly a tough word, but let's see if you can spell it, Governor General?
"Hypocrisy". That's right h-y-p-o-c-r-i-s-y. No you don't have to define it. You've lived it.

Starts right at the top. Our political leadership who pontificate and hand wring about the loss of values among our youth, have pushed their faces as deep in the trough of corruption as they can go. No transparency. No consequences for glaring theft of public funds. Promises of inquiry reports to be tabled in Parliament, go long forgotten. Referenda held and ignored. Graft unabated. Do they really think these street thugs don't know what is going on at the top? Do they really not know the rot starts at the head?

Tal, No one can defend the imposition of a program of such overwhelming economic and social significance absent full prior disclosure and an adequate opportunity for open discussion and comment prior to its implementation. This makes a pig in a poke look like total transparency.

Has the Obamacare debacle taught us nothing?

And one of the women was carrying papers documenting her legal status in the country. What is wrong with you? What if you were visiting a foreign land and this happened to you? Arrested without cause, other than being a foreigner; put into a prison with no access to a bathroom; and subjected to all sorts of humiliating comments if not worse! You defend that? This is the logical result from Mr. Fred Mitchell's assault on the Constitution of this country, not to mention humanity, all for perceived political benefit. He operates just like his pals the Castro Brothers.

Yes. Per Mr. Gore and his Chicken Little minions, Miami and New York City are already underwater and the entire Artic Ice cap has melted. In fact we here in the Bahamas are all drowned. Gee, I thought Heaven would be nicer.

Like government run power companies? Like government run telecommunications companies? Like government managed mega resort bankruptcies? You'll like government run health care.
