Folks,
 They are laughing at us again. I have to say it does us no good taking
each other down to the gutter. If the ultimate goal all of us are yearning
for is to help our opposition parties to unite and oust the current regime,
then I wonder what good is going to come out of us chopping each other's
throat just to make a point over minor indifferences, especially when we
could have settled these relatively petty differences in private. But that
of course is asking too much from  us, Gambians. Instead, we come here and
play judge and jury and give the Pa Modou Gassamas our version of The
Jerry Springer Show. I bet Gassa is been entertained by these unwarranted
mudslinging brouhahas. They're enjoying every bit of it and you all should
know this. Whether we do these things to get a standing ovation or to
humiliate each, I don't have a single clue but my take is that it is a
fruitless act, counter productive and does jeopardize all we're trying to
achieve. And I must say I do agree with Buharry that we should hold our
fire, or redirect our missiles to the right target. Some of you might want
to consider taking some time off, if it's that hectic. I took a week's
vacation and it did me some GOOOOOOOD. Someone once told me that where you have three Gambians, chances are they are arguing about something. Well,
we have over 600 members on the L and you know...well, go figure ..lol!

Again, this is not an attempt to castigate any comrade, but rather to
remind you of all the respect some of us have held over the years for some
of you and that we would rather see you maintaining  that respect than
indulge in massive frivolities that which tantamount zilch to the struggle.
I believe there is a time and place for everything and surely this is NO
time to indulge in negativity and the L is certainly NO place to make
final decisions. We can all shout all we want but in the final analysis and
in the scheme of things, decisions will be made strategically( NOT euphorically) strictly on rudiments of good judgement by capable and well
informed elected leaders already in place.

By and large, I would never profess to be an expert on public relations,
but doggone it, just like Buharry I can no longer stomach what I've been
reading recently. I only hope this is a closed case and we are all MOVING
FORWARD. And yes Gassa, we're NOT just human garbage drifting toward a big
sewer so just don't jubilate yet. We do disagree but we agree to disagree.
We are all human and none of us are perfect so cut us some slacks, will ya?
I also should know that you have your hands full with Mr Jobe's
resignation. That has to hurt little for your camp. Any comments on Dr
Jobe's resignation, Gassa? Well......... That's all I have.

                                                  Good day everyone,
                                                  Mr Makaveli
