Where the Truth Lies... (a rant in five parts)

PART 1


Since the defeat at the hands of the electorate, Colm Imbert has been walking around with a dazed look of bewilderment on his face. Shocked to find himself the villain in this piece, he does not understand how he became one of the most despised people in the country.

Being a person of selflessness by nature, I thought i would be the good Samaritan and stop and explain it to him.

Nobody likes you Colm, because not only did you lie when you had the chance to tell the truth to the country, you 'damn lie', and that's a lot worse.

Why?

Because you used your People Appointed position to wage war on the very people by conspiring to deceive and conniving against them.

You went to great lengths to harangue and harass anyone that questioned or challenged your maniac leader and his band of sycophant parasites sucking the life out of our country, in a cabal where you were self appointed heir to the deceitful throne.
Your 'parry and thrust' Letters in the papers were so frequent I fully expected you to end up with your very own column.

That people don't stop you in the street after the elections and spit on you for your lowness and deceitfulness is a testimony to the strength of character of the people of Trinidad & Tobago, and for that you should be grateful.

When Dr. keith Rowley had to 'mash up de place' to expose Calder Hart for all to see, you, who as Minister of Works OUGHT to have known what was going on in UDECOTT, you feigned ignorance, your famous quote "I Know Not The Man" rang so hollow, I waited for a cock to crow three times.

That it didn't had to be Heaven's way of distancing itself from you and your pretend piety.

You knew or had to know or ought to have known at all material times what was taking place under your watch as PM (Project Manager, Prime Minister, Patrick Manning's) closest Minister, Chief Whip and confidant, what was being done to the people by this 'Prime Minister Gone Wild' running amok with the country's future.

What did you do when handed opportunity after opportunity to save the nation, to do the honorable thing and throw yourself into harm's way to save the people?

You lied.

And for that we will never forgive you, nor will we ever forget.
Move on little man, and I'm not just talking about your vertical challenge here, move on; exit stage left, stage right, anywhere you please, but do us all a favor and just go.


PART 2


Austin Jack Warner is testing to see how far the people are willing to let him go with this slight of hand show he has been running since Kamla won the internal elections of the UNC.

The twists and turns that this man has been willing to make or has already made to get himself into a position of power in the Government and his hands on the Ministry of Works has mesmerized me; it was almost like watching a special effects movie.

Willing to throw anything and anybody at it to fulfill the requirements of appearences, Jack could not even get twenty paid supporters to the airport for his 'Hero's Arrival' yesterday.

Why?

It's because of trust, Jack. We don't trust you. Apparently nobody does.

Fine, I am sure the people who depend on your largesse or other life support will say otherwise, but we are not talking about people who have to be creative with the truth. We are talking about everybody else. Internationally.

Why all the lying and 'smartman' behavior to get into this 'appointment?'

Why the pretend games trying to rewrite history of where you are, where you trying to go, and more importantly, who you are?

Why all the charades and shenanigans?

Is it that at some point, like a child stealing cookies, you are expecting to be found out and exposed for who you really are?

You underestimate the ambitions of the small men around you, who, in your orbit, are willing to push you if you pull them. Look around, not one of them needs be honest with the public because they're lying to themselves. Your cohorts and co-conspirators will parrot the 'gobar' that your money has bought and paid for you, but don't be fooled.

The electorate is not only watching you, they're watching all of you, especially the ones that are facilitating this new assault on our Parliament.

The substantive issue here is, Mr. Warner, we do not trust you, and we do not want you to have access to our treasury because we don't trust you.

Thanks for helping us remove Patrick Manning, your money was needed to effect it.

Now, if you really care about this country like you say you do, do us all a favor.

Hit the Road Jack (and don't you come back no more).


PART 3


Mikandal Daaga, I need to ask you one question here.

Mikandal really?

Are you really willing to squander this second chance at respectability talking drivel to defend the indefensible at the people's expense?

Challenging the necessity of a Code of Ethics?

Your entire role in this thing is to sit up, shut up, and do your best to appear intelligent.

If you are saying what you are saying because you do not know better, that its because of people like Warner we need a code of ethics in the first place, then you are not qualified to hold Office.
If you in fact DO know better and are engaging in subterfuge to assist in furthering another's nefarious agenda, you are, in fact, telling a lie.


PART 4


Die hard party supporters, regardless of which party you support, you have made a mess and a mockery of our electoral system.

Why?

Because you are dishonest.

Your unwillingness to have anything like an independent thought makes you contemptible and an enemy to real progress.

People like you are the reason every single abuser in high Office has been able to perpetuate that abuse. People like you made Ish and Brian and Steve happen, made Calder and Gary happen, and are about to make Carlos and Jack happen.

Because of you and people like you, who lie to further your objectives by pushing fraudulent agendas, the weak and the innocent become grist for the mill as these parasites and vampires you line up behind and promote with gusto and enthusiasm drain the blood of the future and squander any chance of the poor and dispossessed in our society having a decent life; these are the ones you and your 'people' come to rob. The ones who could least afford it.

If you are in support of something or someone that you KNOW to be untrue or misleading, yet you endorse and support it for whatever reason, you are a liar, and a fraud, a willing conspirator and a traitor to the country.



PART 5



Will the real Media please stand up?

Your abdication of journalistic principles is tantamount to conspiring against the people of Trinidad & Tobago.

Anytime you refuse to pursue and publish the truth, you are telling a lie.
