Yuh know Politrikians not only have de most flexible joints, but I feel dey mus be also have de world's smallest feet dey way dey could put dey foot in dey mouth an' keep on talking magnitudes of manure widout missin' a beat.

Is eider dat Patos real feel sorry fuh Trini an' decide he go give we a good laugh or de laser dey use on he eye did go through to he brain...is why else he go open he mouth in Tobago an' claim he doh have final say on de election candidates, all he does do is make recommendation to de Executive, an' is dem who does make de decision(s)...

He added that in PNM history, the executive had never gone against the recommendation of the leader.

He really feel mankind dat dotish in trute? An' dis jes after he claim dat "I’m on my way out... I didn’t tell you when, though,”. I find he well brave goin' Tobago an' makin' all kinda promise an' ting to dem, is to hope he keep de promise an' dem oui, 'cause Tobago people doh eat nice when yuh cross dem.
But wid all dat, he is not de only contortionist in town...de nex' circus have some who seem able to be doin' de foot-in-mouth an' talkin' routine while dey stannin' on dey head. Is how come all dem lawyer an' corporate types who well verse in runnin' meetin' an' followin' establish procedure never thought to find out de process fuh settin' up dey alliance an' registerin' it wid de EBC?
Suddenly dey 'discover' dat accordin' to de rules, either de Alliance get a new symbol to register wid de EBc, or all man jack go have to endup in de elections as UNC candidates...or mabe dat was de idea all along?

I really ent able wid dem at all, an' while it seem dat T&T hopin' fuh good tings from de COP yuh Tants have de Cynic Hat firmly on mih head. I hearin' dem sayin' de right kinda tings, but I worried dat de new dogs an' dem go all to quickly end up learnin' all de ole tricks of de trade. Is a long time people talkin' bout addin' a "None Of The Above" choice on de ballots so yuh could get a better idea of how de electorate feel...I feel de reason nobody ent implement it yet is dey fraid "NOTA" go get more votes than dem! But seriously we ent need a change in de Gov't as much as we need a change in de attitude of de people.

When we could accept de 'little' every day lawlessness (undertakin' on de shoulder of de road, drivin' wid de speed limit as we slowest speed, parkin' when an' where we want, not takin' on pedestrian crossings, dumpin garbage on de street instead of walkin' de 20ft to de nearest bin, etc, etc ad nauseam) is no surprise dat big lawlessness happenin' free sheet. I seriously wish I could have de confidence an' faith dat de supporters have in dey respective Politrickians an' Parties, but as I did say before de Cynic Hat well an' truly in place.

If a 'serious' political groupin' would get dey act together an' prove demself capable via Local Gov't elections, I feel T&T would sit up an' take notice... but we ent yet comfortable wid de prospect of independent, non-affiliated people bein' in politics, so it goin' to be a few more years before T&T really have a chance to say we movin' on as a society an' takin' on de rest of de world.
