The Florida acquisition was a shell game for the beneficial owners to convert Bahamian currency to American dollars and then benefit by buying Florida companies that they secretly beneficially owned and sold to CB at inflated prices. And Bahamians pay for it. It was slick, though.
Holey Shiite Batman - C. Allen Johnson is the chairman??? This man served over 7 years in the Big House in the United States for crimes such as Grand Theft, cell phone tapping and other crimes. He was deported as an undesirable. Now he goes under the moniker of Apostle and he is a DVD seller in Freeport.
Who the hell is going to take that seriously?????????????????
The FNM had a really decent website when Papa run da joint. Then the PLP followed suit by hiring the non-Bahamian guy from Thyme-Online and that is why the PLP website is still up and modernised -- it was designed and maintained by a foreigner living here. SMT - about Bahamas for Bahamians.
And most political parties have generals who fulfill the functions that I mentioned, if not having the title that I mentioned. And maybe the Generals have a greater degree of granularity (OK Moses, you run dem Percy webshop guys, Ezekiel -- you make sure dems conch-avoiding Seven Day Adventists wote for us, Onan, you make sure da boyfrens of Brave's front-sellers wote fer us ... etc".). All in all those functions are necessary. You have to have folks on the ground to run a party, and a chaplain is up in da atmosphere. Prayer een gern hep. I bin prayin fer God ta smite Perry longtime now. Instead, that God fella just keeps sendin' me money. Almost wants to make me cure my heathenish ways.
Dunno ... I figured that Pintard would bring a modicum of organisational rigour to the party ... and I am disappointed that he didn't., You know, when you take over a new house, you sweep da floors, clean the place up, put light bulbs in, make sure the gas is connected, a new coat of paint here and there. If you do the little things first, the big things will take care of themselves.
The FNM have done nothing like that. They are content to squat in the old house with the peeling paint. Their messaging is non-existent. LBT and others are feeding their ego and fomenting discord instead of doing the patriotic thing and getting behind the party for the good of the country. Collegiality is gone, and they are like a few tribes of potcakes forced to share an uneasy alliance in a ramshackle house.
The PLP advertises themselves as the stupid party, and they bully the intelligent ones in their ranks to get a lobotomy and have the chip inserted in their brains and other things inserted in their sphincters. The FNM do not whip their members into shape and make them toe the party line. In any organisation, you must lead, follow or get out of the way. LBT and her unwashed, intellectually-challenged, non-patriotic crew are typical Bahamian riff-raff -- what's in it for me baby.
So yeah, the FNM is behind the eight ball in terms of organisation, infrastructure, and policy purity. They need a good weeding, a good housecleaning, and a policy compass that is clearly enunciated to the stupid sheeple that the PLP has so assiduously bred.
You only live once, and you only have so many years allotted to you as a person, and my thought now are, that the poverty of spirit, quality of life, and excellence of governance is so lacking in this country, that it is lost, and any other horizon is better than the pile of excrement that we now inhabit.
The lucky ones are the ones with mobility and economic independence to savour a better life offshore.
There are just some days when I wish that I would come to the news site, and hope for a ray of good news for the country -- like a call center employing 500 people will move here, or a bio-pharmaceutical company is setting up a lab here, or a light manufacturer of solar products is setting up a plant here, or a young Bahamian kid starts an internet business that is bought for tens of millions of dollars, or a Bahamian author is a bestseller and sells the movie rights -- something normal other than killings, raping of the country by politicians, or the constant daily grind of bad news.
Do you know what will ignite the powder keg? Six percent more unemployment. That is the tipping point where our descent into chaos will become a speeding freight train without brakes.
