Butch & the Control Kid

[Mosiah]

I see you have been trying to get my attention for some time now on this thread. Because I find your offerings either childish, specious or unconstructive and tiresome (usually some combination of those 4) I have refrained from responding...until now.

your words--- how about an ongoing and detailed analysis of Govt to keep them honest and working in the public interest ?

This is the primary task of the Opposition. The JLP was very aggressive and effective in this role. Hopefully the PNP will follow that example.

The rest of your post I wont elevate by way of a response.

I know you like to have the last word so............knock yourself out. I can't devote any more time to the inconsequential...... such as a response to whatever drivel you choose to post.

Selah

Can I use this response in the future? I will make sure to give credit where it's due.

[Mosiah]

Willi, that is true in whatever society. I would go further, but I see you are clad in your dirty green. No point.

[Mosiah]

Some people on the forum is stuck, they simple hate capitalism but holding on to some form of PNPism to act as if we had an effective market system for the last 18 years.

So, what do you think we had for the last 18 years? Some type of socialism?!?!

[Mosiah]

I would expect you to give me a reason why Vin is more dangerous than Butch. I am not hear to answer your questions so-suh-suh.

[Muadib]

That cop out works as well as any.

As for 'getting your attention'.. get over yourself.. you are just the latest vermin to pop up out of the woodwork.. yuh not fooling nuhbady comrade.. probably a jaded Peter Phillips supporter.

Jamaica still has not recovered from 'The Movement' in the late 60's going into the seventies... that Mona property being at the HEART of the 'revolution'.

Said property has not contributed anything of consequence other than some 'revolutionaries' tilting at windmills and is decaying into irrelevance.

Showah.

Interesting..

Butch Stewart VS Omar Davis... who yuh did fear most ?

[Willi]

Clearly Butch! He has a popular newspaper with which to influence minds. That's very dangerous!

If people minds are that simple, we have a problem anyway.

What was influencing minds in the last 20 years?

[Willi]

Wrong again Willi, I have hit out against Paulwell before this, more than once too, but in this case some one needs to go to prison, simple...

OK sah,

I tek it back. Apologies.

Straightforward and forthright position.

But you understand that there are some of the island's top journalist who work at the Observer, right and there are at least two of the best editors on the staff at Beechwood Avenue as well.

How do you factor that one?

At the Observer, he who pays the piper calls the tune. That's the situation there as far as I can see.....Butch calls the tune editorially. Ideally there should be strict separation between ownership/management and editorial policy. Could that be why the previous editor Paget de Freitas left? Maybe he was unwilling to tow the Butch line (my speculation).
It is not a serious, independent newspaper at the current time in my view...and that's a loss for the country.

It's time someone at CARIMAC (is it still called that?) does an ongoing and detailed content analysis of our media to try to keep them honest and working in the public interest.
Jamaica can't afford to lose the voice of an independent, objective media especially print media....we have only 2 dailies. If one of the 2 or both lose journalistic integrity where does that leave our democracy?...weakened and imperiled. Where does that leave our people?...more subject to manipulation.
Suppose Oliver Clarke start pull a Butch ting at the Gleaner now?

If we had more print outlets the loss of one would not be so bad.

raspeck a nuh nothing still.

Butch pocket maybe long but yu nuh see how him run from Air J?

As a businessman if the paper start go down then watch and see how him run.

Simple solution - the light bulbs were a gift from Cuba, well the country could exchange gifts - EXILE the damn thief or thieves to CUBA and mek Fidel handle the return gift
