Our politicians really believe we are dumb.

First off, the two would not have come during the spike. That is just a ludicrous statement.

Second, they cam now and the rush out was all for them. Period. Trying to spin it shows a complete lack of respect for the populace.

"Impartial" Governor General appointed by the political directorate who has no tenure and can be removed at will if the GG party is not in power? Really?

And what power does William have? All he said is dependent on his grandmother and father.

Why hold on to vestiges of the past and be governed by people who are miles away?

When will be stand up and be independent and develop ourselves?

What if our governments provide busies opportunities for our people to be their own bosses rather than these bottom feeder jobs? What if they provided a proper 21st education system that propels students to think and not just regurgitate information for exams? What if they provided a proper health system with access to quality healthcare? What if they allowed oil to be refined by the companies in GB and sold stations in the county to lower our gas prices?

If they just had sense to do some of these things, would we not be able to have some remedies against the scourge of crime?

I am just tired of brain dead politicians with worthless slogans every 5 years, clinging to commissions and committees and not having one creative or productive idea.

One of the best journalistic articles I have seen in any of our dailies in decades, that brings questions to all the hot air that politicians are allowed to blow without being challenged. Wish the politicians could answer the questions raised in tis article.

Interesting how the price of a barrel of crude oil has been dropping and the man is still talking about gas prices rising.

How often will we form committees and commissions in this country to talk about the problem, and never see follow through in any productive actions?

Note clearly it is not the national flag that is touching the ground.

Good riddance!

I never called him my Massa. I am referring to our leaders and the people who line up to celebrate someone who does not give one iota about them.

Trust me, I have no allegiance to Britain or the monarchy. I know who I am and am just as royal. I don't bow to them.

So you prefer to stay in slavery rather than stand up and chart a new course? I am not saying you can change what happened. I am saying it is time to make a different future and stop living for and shackled by the past.
