The Editor, Sir:

Imagine censuring Karl Samuda when all the man did was to expose the rotten underbelly of the PNP! But then, what should we expect? This is Jamaica where there is no justice. K.D. Knight, the PNP's new jester, went to the backbench but just can't stand being out of the limelight, so he's managed to find a way to keep the camera on himself in the Public Accounts Committee. What a foolishness he went on with over a mere seat! And to have the nerve to plop himself beside the chairman as if he just doesn't get it that he no longer runs things.

Anyway, my real beef is with this latest scandal. What is wrong with the PNP? Why, after 17 long years at the helm (just look at health, education, roads in communities, crime, joblessness, etc., etc.) do they continue to act as if they just can't get enough?

TAKES CASH TO CARE, BUT

Prime Minister Simpson Miller says she has no money to run elections and has to tax poor people. Then we hear that's not true. Yes we all know it takes cash to care, but care for whom? Not poor people whose babies die due to the lack of facilities at hospitals. How much would one autoclave have cost? Like Mr. Samuda, they are trying to censure the doctor who exposed Jubilee for what it is: a fly-infested, vermin-overridden, potential death trap.

Prime Minister Simpson Miller needs to be very careful. There is a very thin line between love and hate. Right now she is on that line. People, especially poor people, are beginning to see through her pretence that she hears no evil, sees no evil and speaks no lie. Only the proverbial monkeys can do that and get away with it. Our Prime Minister is too well dressed and charming to act like a monkey, so she had better know that we are not being fooled by her act.

I am, etc.,
