		<description><![CDATA[Rhonda. A party relaxing the laws on smoking weed has nothing to do with drug testing MPs. With your logic they can&#039;t oust members of the government who may be using cocaine and other hard drugs because they want the laws on marijuana to be relaxed. That makes no sense at all. Members of the general public are not making big decisions for the country. You viewpoint seem very childish..]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[They didn&#039;t.

It is Rhonda&#039;s job to denigrate each and every action and/or inaction by the current Government while simultaneously obfuscate the truth regarding revelations of the previous Government&#039;s actions and/or inactions.

That is her role.  Nothing more and nothing less.  She&#039;ll make accusations like above, but defend to the hilt the revelations such as the court building shenanigans that have just been exposed.  She simply hates Bermuda (i.e. her defense of corruption that affects us all) but loves the Party.

And given the downright intolerance shown by some in her Party towards non-Bermudians one would think that she wouldn&#039;t be so defensive of this institution given the fact that she has revealed (in the daily) that she isn&#039;t even a Bermudian (only by marriage).

But either way I imagine she will come back with a one liner that she thinks is an intelligent response and that she has justified her &quot;argument.&quot;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Great work indeed!!!

If eight were seized, why hasn&#039;t anyone been charged with the unsolved crimes?

If you are caught in possession of a weapon, that turns out to be linked to unsolved gun crimes...you should be charged with these crimes.

Turn up the heat!!!]]></description>
