Bahamas Issues: Perry Christie doesn’t care about teachers

Perry Christie doesn’t care about teachers…
Nurses…Doctors…Lawyers…nor the enviorment.
If he did, he would listen more and talk less.
It seems as if our anointed savior is no longer connected with his people.
Clearly he speaks in order to hear himself; but the sad thing is, it seems as if he has even duped himself into believing what he preaches. (The poor man.)

Recently, the primeminister cried foul, when the Bahamian teacher took to the streets. He proclaimed that they should have brought their concerns to him before they took such action…hmmm. I thought the teachers were suppose to have taken their concerns to the Minister of Education…It seems as if the primeminister desires to be Minister of Everything, like our last primeminister. Here we go again!

If Mr. Christie was paying any attention, he would have known, like everyone else in the Bahamas had already known save him that teachers were unhappy, and in particular unhappy with his administration’s policies. Oh well, we all know Christie them loss.

More importantly, Mr. Christie suggested that the Bahamian teacher are being poor role models for the Bahamian youth. My God, look who’s talking! But I ain’t even going there. Everyone in the Bahamas knows where all the chirren hang out: right in the House of Assembly!

But do you know what really has my goat? This LNG thingy…I thought we were finished with that…and particularly, I thought the entire Bahamas was against it. Apparently, Mr. Christie wasn’t briefed by Leslie Miller. But don’t worry, the Bahamian people soon remind him. Election is in a few years. Ring the bell, I say, ring the bell!

Bahamas Issues: Comment on proposed US sanctions against Bahamas over Cuban dentist

I did not want to start an entire new thread with a simular thought, but what you’ll think gan happen?

Will the Bahamas send the doctors to the United States or will we send them back home to Cuba?

If we send them to the United States, what do we tend to lose. What does Cuba have to offer us? Will our treaty with Cuba be threatened. Can Fred Mitchel influence the Castro government not to pull out of the Bahamas. What will happen to all them Cuban eye doctors we have here helping us? Didn’t the United States sent us two Ivy league student doctors to help us out with eye care?

And if we send them to Cuba, what do we tend to gain. Will the United States really sanction us? Or is that propaganda talk by some wanton congressman, who opinion really doesn’t matter. What will George Bush actually decide? How much economic power does Florida have in regards to influencing the Bahamian economy. Has Mr. Christie already committed to the good Floridian govenor that the Bahamas plans to send the Cuba doctors to Florida?

Has anyone reminded publicly the Floridians about how much Bahamian money is pumped into that state? Have we reminded them about the constructive contributions we have made in regards to building that state. Exactly who is important to who?

Lastly, I want to remind persons about Elian Gonzalez. What did the great United States government decided to do with him. How come them Cuban Americans aren’t still up in arms over that.

And how come it seems as if the Bahamas is always being bullied into making decisions that benefit other people. And exactly how much clout do these Cuban Americans actually have?
