OH MY!!! Electioneering....

PUP or UDP...UDP or PUP...oh then there is the VIP!!!!!!!!

Four years ago in the midst of pre-election rhetoric then candidate now Prime Minister of Belize quoted to the effect.....the people of Belize have no choice other than vote for the UDP and that obviously they will not vote for the PUP. After two terms the PUP, vis-a-vis it's leaders, had shot themselves on the foot...cut off their own noses to spite their faces...etc. In February of 2008 the people of Belize castigated the PUP where it hurts in the most decisive way...the General election polls. I have gone on record to state how that irks my soul.

This style of results brandishes our the electorates collective ire versus a party and not the individuals running. Ah...so so sad. It also exposes the very weakness of democracy. The majority is not always right. Nevertheless we all have the greatest of human rights--that of the right to be wrong.

What is probably not pardonable is the wanton abuse of our electorate by politicians who DO know better.

The giving of a little 'blue-buay' for a vote: Insults the value of a voter's right to decide using their own free will...Not to mention its being illegal.

The giving of a little 'blue-buay' for a vote: Shows that the politician is corrupt even before he has been elected. This throws corrupts absolutely out the window. ;)

The giving of a little 'blue-buay' for a vote: Tempts the voter to be dishonest also...and many accede into this dishonesty.

The giving of a little 'blue-buay' for a vote: The dishonesty stretches into "I will take their money and STILL vote them out. Yes that is dishonest...since you to lie to a fellow human.

Today there is another display of unfair play with the registration list that is being padded with newly nationalized Belizeans. That these people went through the correct process to become Belizeans is one main issue. In my opinion, if someone wants to become a Belizean that is something that makes me proud. Wow....

Another SAD issue is that this patriotic act of nationalization is then desecrated by holding it to ransom.

'Since I helped you to become a Belizean you should then vote for me.' DAMN.....the nerve. No one has that power...no one. People become a Belizean because of their qualifying via due process after their collective will and fate brought them to that decision.

'This is nothing new, the PUP did it before'........STUPID remark. Whilst telling us to Imagine the Possibilities the UDP stood on a rostrum of 'we will not be like the PUP.' Hey.....UDPers...the PUP lost big time after they, according to you, 'did the same thing.' Just maybe it was a part of their undoing. Why would you want to repeat strategy that was folly? Again this shows me the lack of intellect and desire to do the right thing.

Lastly...Said Musa was touted as being a liad person...that untruths were his order of the day. Can we say that Dean Barrow has been any different? At least Said said that 'I have to lie sometimes'...and that is true of us all.

Step forth if you have never lied. Go ahead. I know ONE person who would like to step forward. Do you need hints?
