If that is not the biggest joke. Please note that in 2012 people voted against Christie, and not for Minnis.

And that is the problem. It should not be about Minnis agenda, but about what is best for the country after dialogue with the people.
And I stopped listening to Minnis when he stopped having press conference and wanted to only do national addresses so he would not have to answer questions from the press.
Minnis needs to stay out of leadership. Hope Pintard beats the pants off of him and send him into retirement.

Mr. Pintard doesn't think the voters hare Minnis, the voters themselves have expressed. If Minnis comes back, FNMs will stay home again.

This myth needs to stop. Hubert Ingahm came to power in 1992 with a country for sale and a broken economy. less than a year later he had to deal with Hurricane Andrew. ANd look what he produced in 5 years. Minnis just was a plain dictator with and was about himself. If he had listened to the advice of his won people, he would have fair way better in his 5 years.

So the minister of national security response is that everyone else borrowing form the Chinese, so we do it do? How dumb of a response is that. If everyone else blows up their country then we do it to?

The PM is really a bafoon. Bahamian people are baffled how you all are not able to get medical treatment right with PMH, but want to build a $290 million dollar hospital through a loan, and we know first we will be saddled with increased debt for a hospital you'll will not be able to get medical right for either.
If you cant get PMH right, why should we believe building a new hospital will get medical right?
You right. The Bahamian people are baffled by the incompetence of government and your unwillingness to answer questions in the House of Assembly.
You want to tear down Pintard for not being a part of the new generation. Fine. Then you better tear down the Minnis you admire so much, as he is no wear near the younger generation. So why be gung ho for Minnis who should be retired?

This cannot be correct right? So who else he supposed to be monitored by? Is there another group monitoring different people?
