"I will assure you that the best antidote to Green boys is RED Boys," Haruna.
Before I will accept your assurance Haruna, What are RED Boys?
"When you said "And I think you (Yanks) are doing more damage at
Mr. Darboe's--span>; chances of becoming president than what you
perceived Mr. Drammeh is doing" you meant that by confronting and
educating Dramane on Ousainou's honour, that Yanks is doing more damage at Mr.
Darboe's chances of becoming President of Gambia than how much Dramane is
affecting Ousainou's chances of becoming President of Gambia, and that Dramane
may be part of the gang of Green boy idiots????," Haruna
Again, I repeat: that is why I said when it come to educating Mr. Drammeh on Lawyer "Darbo's honour" Mr. Mballow did a great job of that. Why would Yanks escalate it to a confrontational stage Haruna. That was what I was referring to as a green boys mentality. Yanks does not have to received Mr. Drammeh's queries from a personal angle. Lawyer Darbo is a public figure and actively seeking the presidency and by that he exposed himself to the stringent scrutiny and criticism of citizens like Mr Drammeh. By the way do you know the green boys are behind some of the atrocities committed against the independent Gambian media because they do not want Jammeh to be scrutinized or criticized neither fairly nor unfairly.
I know we Gambians with the exception of the misguided green boys, have the intellegence to conduct our political debate in an intellectual fashion without
resorting to blackmailing, browbeating or insulting our oppenents. And you my dear brother Masoud, I don't know whether it is your refusal to go have a good sleep that is throwing you off the cliff of intellectual political debate down to browbeatng Mr. Drammeh. I am dissapointed in you too Masoud. But I still like you. Sincerely, Lamin Jatta

SO we recap Paripanna:
When you said "And I think you (Yanks) are doing more damage at
Mr. Darboe's chances of becoming president than what you
perceived Mr. Drammeh is doing" you meant that by confronting and
educating Dramane on Ousainou's honour, that Yanks is doing more damage at Mr.
Darboe's chances of becoming President of Gambia than how much Dramane is
affecting Ousainou's chances of becoming President of Gambia, and that Dramane
may be part of the gang of Green boy idiots????
I will assure you that the best antidote to Green boys is RED Boys.
Haruna.

Paripanna???) Haruna.
You don't know what a
green boys' mentality is? OK, Here is what I will recommend that you add
to your itinerary for your site seeing tour to Basse with uncle Suntou:
While in the Kombos, before you leave for Basse, I suggest that
you go to Baba Jobe's compound where you can see and interact with
actual green boys. I know you guys would love to meet the witch hunters
too because both of you are brave men. This experience will definitely
put both of you in a comparable advantage on your on going debate
against the PDOISards. Because you would have met the actual witch
hunters and the green boys eyeball to eyeball as opposed to Halifa's
method of running after their shadows. Probably they may be
gracious to allow you spent the night at Baba Jobe's Hotel too. Von
voyage!

Paripanna,
I had shared with JDAM Wandifaa that I am awake even when I'm
asleep. Like Yahya. So I wouldn't worry about Haruna being sleepy if I
were you. C'est la meme chose. I will share some ideas with you
here:

Bah oui!
[Reading from the last couple of mails you
sent in you sound like somebody sleepy. I do like your contributions
here but not when you sound tired, sleepy or fixated on Mr.
Drammeh.FYI Mr. Mballow had effectively address the question of Mr.
Drammeh.] Jatta Njie.
Addressed. I think Mballow addresses Dramane's
pannafore on his own behalf. That does not have much to do with
Haruna.
[And you missed my point. My point was not
whether lawyer Darboe becoming president or not; my point was, there
is a sizable segment of the Gambian population that is
tired of this green boys mentality.] Jatta Njie.
And what is the Green Boys' mentality
Paripanna???
[You get it?] Jatta Njie.
I'm sorry I didn't get it my good
friend.
[Now you too go to sleep. Will ya?]
Jatta Njie.
And what'd I tell you about my sleep business????
dankuto leh beng tayma. Nka Malu-ilaleh.
[And before you go to sleep note that UDP
needs to win this segment too.] Jatta Njie.
I imagine that would be UDP's purview. Wouldn't
you say???
[And I am sorry if this mail come with no
subject. It is not deliberate.] Jatta Njie.
Don't fret my good lad. Its not
important.
[I am using a blackberry as opposed to a pc.]
Jatta Njie.
I hope you get electrocuted with these
blackberries. Laye is another one who is permanently tethered to these
gadgets. You better be careful. I think President Obama is unduly
burdening himself now that he is President of the US. If he should ask
me, I'll advise he jettison his blackberry, spruced-up and
all.
[Thanks!] Jatta Njie.
Yeah I love you too gaddamit. Haruna. I am not
pleased with you at this time. Maybe later.
