The case of the purloined emails
Speaker Dr Kendal Major says he may hold Minister Jerome Fitzgerald in contempt of the House of Assembly if he finds out that the private emails Mr Fitzgerald read in the House were illegally obtained. What a joke.
Dame Joan’s odd verdict
It is with great sadness that I read the comments of Dame Joan Sawyer, a former Chief Justice and President of the Court of Appeal, today.
The Church and equality
I found it quite interesting reading about the Christian Church leaders seemingly new-found enthusiasm for the equal rights of women in The Bahamas.
Unfair attack on media
A letter written by Delvin Rolle complaining about media coverage of FNM Leader Dr Hubert Minnis is another sad example of his supporters’ belief that the media are somehow blind and just don’t get how wonderful, articulate and filled with bright ideas is Dr Minnis.
Time for Minnis to rise
Every five years, a very strange phenomenon occurs. Educated men and women, considerably righteous men and women, and even those usually not prone to much gaff descend into a primal circle of rhetoric, propaganda, smear tactics, and outright falsehoods all in the name of politics.
The things we could learn...
The headline in today’s Tribune: “Miller: We learned corruption from US”.
The other side of the BASH saga
With reference to the article about the horses at BASH in The Tribune on April 19, I must set the record straight.
A ray of light . . .
Please allow me a small space in your valuable newspaper to send a great big thank you to the Chairman, management and staff of the Bahamas Electricity Corporation (BEC).
Bias towards Butler-Turner
IT WAS interesting to read the lead story in your business section on April 19 about FNM MP Loretta Butler-Turner calling for the Christie administration to create a special envoy to look after Baha Mar.
Throwing stones and glass houses
While the country’s national debt has increased to $6.6b, up $136m over the previous quarter, the Baha Mar resort is still stalled, with certain members of the government now intimating that the course of action taken by this government in preventing the developer from restructuring his finances may not have been the best course of action, crime and unemployment still being very concerning issues, the Chairman of the Progressive Liberal Party, Bradley Roberts seems hell bent on focusing on questions that for the most part have already been asked and answered of the Free National Movement.
Justifying abuse?
Is Sir Franklyn Wilson justifying corruption and human rights abuses?
Financial time bomb
Your Editorial of today is right on the money with this matter and quite honestly, I do not think that the Bahamian people realise, or appreciate, the magnitude of what seems to have happened.
Pastors’ Stone Age thinking
The coalition of pastors who seem to have but one string to their ecclesiastical guitar again launched into a chorus of hate in a now predictable attempt to blur the line between church business and state business.
The country becoming a ghetto
One recent weekend, I went into a gas station to make a purchase. Shortly thereafter three or four young ladies pulled up in separate vehicles, calypso music blasting.
Allowing corruption to rule
“MILLER: We learned corruption from the US – Contracts for supporters will never stop.” – The Tribune
