		<description><![CDATA[Emotions and passions?  Please, most PLP supoprters that is all they have.  When facts are presented they get all emotional and place labels on the messenger and attempt to denigrate their character.

So you don&#039;t care that hunreds of millions of tax payer funds will flee our shores to pay off overseas investors?  Which means that these dfollars cannot be used for the benefit of Bermudians.

Strange logic you got there.  But it is of really no surprise.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I ask again.

Why do you have problems with this Government giving a foreigner a position in a Govt consultancy job, but do not care that your PLP disbanded a whoel DoT team and replaced it with all foreigners who were fired just a few months later?

If I am a blind sheep for the OBA, what does that make you for the PLP?  I mean you blindly follow a Party that decimated our financial position and made us reliant on overseas investors as a means to keep our Govt working (i.e. bond holders).

You support a party that practices and revels in racial hatred and intolerance of opposing opinions.    You support a Party that had four consecutive qualified audits issued by the AG.  You support a Party that bloated the civil service to the point of being unsustainable and resulting in the need for Govt workers to take a paycut just in order for the Govt to keep on operating.  You support a Party that ensures teh AG is arrested when their corruption is about to be unveiled.  You support a Party that uses blind trusts in capital projects. 

I could go on and on, but what&#039;s the point as you are exactly what you accused me of being above.

Now the grass is nice and green after all this rain lately.  Excellent for grazing you sheep.  Bahhhhhhhh]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#039;re not the sharpest tack in the box are you. Foreign capital has always played an integral role in Bermuda&#039;s commercial successes.... duh.

But we are not talking about that though are we. Your OBA government will carry that to a whole new level by giving foreigners easier access to birth rights like real estate that should be reserved for grassroots locals, current and future generations, black and white.

Their philosophy is the sell ourselves out of a recession [to foreign buyers]. If the OBA could they would give foreign executives citizenship at the drop of a dime, knowing that it would bolster their voting base. 

The OBA would give those same people, who thrive on housing allowances, transportation allowances, travel allowances, private school tuition allowances etc, the opportunity to compete with average locals [some of which do the same jobs with none of those perks] for the limited supply of homes.

The OBA is the party that represents foreign interests, PRC holders, 1st generation &quot;Bermudians&quot; and spouses of Bermudians that want MORE of this little island. The PLP like any party is not perfect but they have and always will protect the birthrights of grassroots Bermudians, black and white.

You&#039;re a fool to put your trust and blind faith in the OBA.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sorry, but no. Nothing that I&#039;ve written even comes CLOSE to &quot;keeping blinders on that [she] did nothing wrong, was not arrested or insinuate the police was [sic] wrong to arrest her&quot;.

Asking people for evidence in 4 or 5 instances, after they&#039;ve made ridiculous claims, like the taxpayer might be paying her legal fees or that the Premier hasn&#039;t said anything because he hadn&#039;t received instructions, is in NO way defending either Ms. Davis or the OBA. 

Please stop rewriting reality and address what I ACTUALLY said.

And my family has nothing to do with the subject, thank you very much.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So you don&#039;t really have a problem with the selling out of BDA&#039;s interest to foreigners.

You only have a problem when you perceive a certain Party does it then?

That&#039;s what they call being a hypocrite and retaining double standards.  See what I mean?  nah, probably not as zealots are usually blind to their hypocrisy.

In relation to your response to point #4, I bet you were one of the zealots screaming injustice at the top of your lungs when a foreigner was given a consultany contract under the new Government.  But when your Party scraps a whoel DoT team and replaces it with all foreigners your response is &quot;so what?&quot;

Hahaha...your hypocrisy is pathetic, but yet so predictable...hahahhaha]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To your first point we live in a capitalist, democratic society where a healthy separation of private/commercial and government activity is upheld. You want to blame someone over the sale of banks, then blame the shareholders that cashed in on it.

To your second point, Bermuda experienced the peak of its economic activity and IB presence during the PLPs tenure, so no surprise that would coincide with the peak issuance of work permits... duhh.

To your third point, bonds are debt issuances that state we will pay you back your [essentially] loaned amount at some point in the future while payment you regular payments [called coupons] in the interim. No body owns Bermuda when purchasing a government bond... duhh.

To you forth point, so what????]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blah, blah, blah...

What aren&#039;t they doing to put people back to work?  Should they be like the PLP and hire everyone and their family members in the civil service?  Then what happens when the civil service is bloated to the point of bankrupting the country?  Oh wait a minute that has already happened.  And who caused that mess? They are trying to create conditions which will allow the country to not only survive, but also to strive.  But you would rather a Party that engages in isolationist policies that are far more detrimental to the economy than actually being welcoming of much needed foreign investment.  But no you want to revert back to failed practices that contributed greatly to the position that we are in.  So please explain what they can be doing differently?  Should they push Bermudians to go to Dockyard and sell sodas and trinkets to tourists coming off the cruise ships as mentioned by the PLP leader?

What exactly do you want them to do for the &quot;lowly and downtrodden?&quot;  They haven&#039;t taken away social assistance or eliminated any of the social programs instituted by the PLP.  So what are you yammering about and what could be done differently and what has been done differently as compared to the PLP?  Is it the re-opening of the free clinic or the leveling of Futurecare premiums for all participants?  

For people that claim to abhor racism I find it strange that you are so adamant about restoring a Party to power that has no qualms of displaying racial hatred and intolerance towards that all that don&#039;t a) think like them and/or b) look like them.  Labeling of people as house ni**ers, rednecks, calling Filipina guest workers nothing but prostitutes et al are the trademarks and mentality of a huge majority of the PLP (yourself included).  Hence why I always smile when you guys go on about racism this and that and expected to be taken seriously.  Hypocrites.

And it is a shame that you don’t care and are willing to ignore the numerous scandals and shenanigans that took place under the PLP’s 14 year reign that ultimately decimated the finances of the Government of Bermuda.  You stayed silent and let them run roughshod over you and yours and for what?  

But your opinion doesn’t matter in the end.  Because no matter what this Government does you will hate and despise them, because that has what you have been conditioned to feel against them.  You will stay deafly quiet when the shady dealings of the PLP, which affect us all in a negative fashion, but jump up and down about something like this.  Just imagine if the PLP didn’t “squander” (but you know what I really mean) millions upon millions of our taxpayer dollars in overruns and general “wastage” (but you know what I mean) and what these could’ve been used for.  But nah, I know asking some PLP to accept even an inkling of responsibility for your actions.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am disgusted with the OBA...they have reneged on practically everything that they promised. Yes, things take time but certain things are clearly not even on their radar. We understand that they need to look at improving the overall economy of the country and that involves courting international business but that seems to be their primary focus. There&#039;s not one peep out of them on what they&#039;re doing to put people back to work. Businesses are still closing and now that the PLP can&#039;t be conveniently blamed, there&#039;s not one peep out of the OBA supporters.

The Gov&#039;t is showing their arrogance and it took all of eight months. Minister Fahy is closing down charities that have been around longer than he&#039;s been born based on one thing-a lack of audited financials knowing full well that many charities rely on audit firms who do it for free and therefore don&#039;t make the charity a priority. He has not stepped foot inside any of those charities to see for himself how they run or to offer any assistance in getting the audits done. Is Gov&#039;t going to pick up the slack when these charities close? NO. They should do everything in their power to help charities but do not.

This Gov&#039;t is really starting to turn me off. What a bunch of hypocrites. I look forward to the PLP taking back power any day now because the OBA clearly suckered the public-they don&#039;t care about the lowly and downtrodden, only those with deep pockets and lots if $$$.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[+2 :) 

Breaking my self imposed stance that I am done with this issue but here goes.

I notice that those same posters such as VJ &amp; Devils Advocate (Original) haven&#039;t touched on the point that was raised by &#039;Double Standards&#039; and seconded by me who asked on 8th August 4:08 because of THEIR previous comments namely that will Nandi be given a pass by them if she apologizes as they have afforded to Mr. Burt???? 
Que more Crickets ..........

Of course they have simply Trolled around the issue (lol) by accusing Mike Hind of Trolling and I of not knowing the difference!! (giggling now) 

We all know that with their warped logic even if Nandi apologizes she would still need to go as she has admitted guilt no doubt. No pass ala Mr. Burt just proceed directly to jail, kicked out of the house of assembly to boot!! Even if she hasn&#039;t been found guilty much less even been charged with anything.

Hypocrites!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everybody is a liar but YOU, huh Mike?

You&#039;ve really lost all credibility so just go away like a nice little boy (speaking of little boys, I take you as the kind of guy who as a kid would let all the neighbourhood kids play with your games, but then sulk and take all your toys home with you rather than let them continue to enjoy them when they don&#039;t let you win).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@In Off The Post: There is no double standard here. How can anyone in their right mind compare these two circumstances? The law says you cannot litter and anyone who does is breaking the law. If I throw a gum wrapper on the ground, should my punishment be the same as someone who murders someone? Both things are crimes, so in your eyes both should be dealt with equally, huh?

G*d some Bermudians are really dumb.]]></description>
