Your comment reminds me of aomething I heard jese jackson Jr say in a commentary the other morning. He said we as a people tend ot have the "crabs in a barrel syndrome" Every time one of tries to climb out, the others will pull you in. Everytime some of us decide to take a raod that ultimately leads all of us to better things and not compromises that will not help us in the long run, there are attempts from all angles to pull you back into complacency. It makes no sense. This is the 21st century and we still have people baring their fangs because we dare to point out the architects of our current disarray? I think your blind defense of the PPP, and your unending attempt to tell us that going back to the tainted past is OK so long as the present one is worse is bizarre to say the least.Relax and learn to demand higher ideals from the politicians and you will not have to choose between one bad regime and another with this process.
