It is so pathetic that seemingly educated people, who have a lot to offer
the country, are so blinded by the hate of an individual that, no matter
what it takes, they will see to it that that person is eliminated. Worst
still, some of these myopic bigots, rather than engaging in any useful
exchange of ideas would instead be only eager to regurgitate what others
have already said. Wasn't only a few weeks ago that this pathetic Prof Assan
was screaming his heart out to be de-listed? On that occasion the entire
archipelago of bigots suddenly became alive, pleading for him not to leave.
welcome back prof. I can see your shrink has done a good job. Thanks
Hamjatta for the online shrink service you advised him to contact.

Talking of issues, what issues have you people raised here recently? Some of
you pretend to want the restoration of democrary, good governance, human
rights, rule of law etc, etc, and yet are unwilling to hear any divergent
views about them. You peddle extremist views, all in the name of good
governance and democracy, expecting people to just stay mute about them. The
only issue some of you want to share with us is your deep hatred of Jammeh
and to that end, you will peddle all sorts of lies. It is rather unfortunate
that the persistent lies Ebrima Ceesay used to post on the L supposedly from
"his sources in the Gambia" seem to be rather short, of late. As for that
silly man, Dampha any project that he cannot call idotic as Hamjatta would
rather call them, he would say were stolen ideas from the former PPP regime.
Whatever possessed some of you?

Recent inputs in the fisheries, agriculture, communication, education and
health sectors are just to be dismissed out of hand as either idiotic or
stolen ideas and as such, are worth nothing. How can one be so narrow
minded? The current expansion and improvements at the airport, the recent
commencement of direct flights to the US and the recent commencement of the
less than container cargo service by maersk Gambia limited to Monrovia and
Freetown are not isues worth discussing. Then, what are the issues? If some
of you had any clue of the the impact of these developments on the ordinary
people of this country or its economy, you will not be peddling some of the
lies on the L. You all know full well the stranglehold neighbouring Senegal
had on our re-export trade. This is becoming less and less now since the
government started creating other alternatives. If any of you can convince
me that these are mad ideas, then I will also start campaigning for the
removal of the "moron/vermine".

You campaigned without any success for the British government to cease its
military assistance to The Gambia knowing full well that this assistance is
mainly in the form of training. How can helping train our security forces to
be more professional, thereby helping to prevent a repeat of the very tragic
incident of April last year, be such a bad idea? What irritates me most is
the constant yapping of support from poodles that seemingly agree to every
garbage some of you post. This is nothing but just plain, plain bigotry.
Period. With your fund raising, I wish you luck as time is not on your side.

By the way, whatever happened to the UDP parrot, Lamin Waa Juwara? He seems
to be rather quite these days.

Have a good day and bye 4Now, KB Jobe.
