I think that is a pejorative indictment on us as a people. We want the truth as long as it comes from someone we "like". Part of the reason why we are in the state that we are in now.

I think I am with Shane on this one. The young lady has no justification for a promotion, having regard to her behaviour and unprofessionalism during the Gibson case. In any real country she would be fired, not promoted.
The Shane Gibson trolling about his past behaviour has nothing to do with the promotion, which again, she should not have received.

I quoted you accurately.

I came just to read mudda rage on James Smith. Somewhat disappointed, mudda!

Yes, but Senate positions are not perpetual. One can be removed as a senator and subsequently replaced, depending on the exigencies of the Government. Which, you would agree, today's circumstances would make the removal of a senator quite appropriate, no - particularly if you are replacing with one of the names I proffered earlier?

Real talk, don't be so defensive. Just because he is not a minister does not mean that his ideas are gone. I don't think this is very difficult to comprehend at all. And, by they way, can the PM - an MD, without a portfolio, btw - replace him? That's one. Conville Brown (MD), Carlos Thomas (MD) that's two, Charles Diggis (MD), that's four. That's four qualified, FNM-leaning doctors, btw. Still waiting?

Agreed...Gracious, I am agreeing with mudda. :-)

So the only way Dr. Sands can assist is by being a Minister? Somehow, this resignation has stripped him from his medical faculties? Stop it. He can assist and, quite frankly, may be even more valuable in the private arena.

No it is not. It was the right, decent and honourable action to take. There really should not be much debate about this to be honest.

Sigh. He did not say that. He said that he would contact his members to come to a final position. His predecessor also said that opening now would be "a risk". Would you care to share the link where Pratt said that we should open now?
