Joe,
You have lost all sense of reality. Why do you think that endorsing the
candidacy of Jasseh Conteh has to have anything to do with attacking you first? If
I or anyone else wanted to endorse Conteh, why would we need an excuse? I
think you are assigning too much importance to yourself.
While you are trying to lump people and find reasons to label them with your
wild imaginings, another observation I have made about you is that you always
go after those who are especially hard on Jammeh and his illegal regime.
I hope that does not send you into another profanity binge.
