He is wasting his time. The current flock of PPP voters are not as intelligent as in the old days of our parents. They rather get beat up, robbed, and shot dead by criminals, including those funded by the PPP, than see a different government in power. And many of them love BJ. He has his backs turned to them, and his lovers, most of the time. So the adoring crowds sees that as a sign that they can do what they want...

I don't know why this bugass fellow still posting on GNI. The same idiot threatened 6 months back when Mud Curass open his site to leave GNI. Now I see he crawl back like a dwag.
On to more serious matter, the PPP is a democratically elected government via the will of the majority. This "dictatorship" reference is a joke. |

PPP parliamentarian condemns Moseley ban
By Gary Eleazar A senior member of the People’s Progressive Party (PPP) and Member of Parliament, Moses Nagamootoo, yesterday publicly condemned the ban against Capitol News reporter and Vice President of the Guyana Press Association (GPA), Gordon Moseley. Moseley has been banned from Office of President and from State House. Nagamootoo made the announcement yesterday to media operatives as he was about to enter the National Assembly for its scheduled session. According to Nagamootoo, being disrespectful was no violation of any law and he did not. “If a journalist violates the law then he/she must be penalised under the law.†Nagamootoo added that he believes that the ban was an administrative glitch that has to be corrected. The Member of Parliament added that most persons were not appreciative of the job that journalists do and that journalists need solidarity, not repudiation and condemnation. “I believe that sanction of this sort is not an answer to issues of fairness and balance in the media or the relationship between state and journalists.†He added, “We have to be fair to journalists…I am very saddened and I empathise with the victim of the transgression against journalists… Administrative measures should best be left to journalists for self regulation.†Nagamootoo added that he believes strongly in the right of journalists to earn a living and practise their profession. AFC support Alliance for Change Leader, Raphael Trotman, said that to ban Moseley from “what is technically the public’s place is wrong.†Trotman added that the move was also symptomatic of the President’s attitude of being petty. “This is a frightening development…any action that the GPA takes the AFC will be in solidarity with.†He noted that the fourth estate (media) was obviously under threat in Guyana and he was very worried over the move given that it means that the media cannot criticize. “What is your (media) function then if it is not to expose and to let people what is going on? Well then, we are heading towards a dictatorship.†The AFC leader said that the move by the State to show that it is in charge is undermining its own legitimacy. “People will lose respect for the state and are not going to accord the state and its institutions the respect that it deserves.†Trotman added that he expects President Bharrat Jagdeo to say to hell with everyone “because he has already said that he is controversial and he does not care any longer…he has to remember that he is a President of a country and his actions will have an impact not only on those he thinks he is directly affecting but all of us and internationally…the view of Guyana is that we are no longer a place where views can be heard and entertained…One shudders to think of what is coming next; it’s frightening.†Moseley was officially informed on Monday last that he has been banned from entering the Office of the President, in New Garden Street, and State House, on Main Street. Moseley has since retaliated that the move was a means of ‘dictating the way Capitol News should cover stories and who should cover those stories.’ On Monday, Moseley arrived at Office of the President following an invitation for the coverage of an event but was told that a directive was issued barring him from entering the premises. He added that when he enquired why he was not allowed in, the security were apparently clueless. The private media within the country has since taken up a position of selective coverage of state-sponsored events. On Wednesday, the GPA issued an advisory to all media houses on the strategy that would be adopted as a means of protesting the ban. |

Jagdeo is the President. You can.t show disrespect for him or his office at any time. I say again, Jagdeo is right in banning the jackass. You are not free to libel the president, it's tantamount to treason..

Rama, Unfortunately, Jagdeo has provided NO evidence of "the disrepect", NONE. He is just pissed that Guyanese seems to be happy in a foreign country rather than being in Guyana where he is claiming is a wonderful place to live.

Rama,if libel or slander is alleged to have taken place,the president like any other citizen has the right to legal recourse. However, as a public official that burden is somewhat higher. |

By going publicly against the President, Moses Nagamootoo is demonstrating to the country that he was not and is not associated with the corrupt and inept cabal running OP and the country.
I also believe that Moses is of the view that he is being vindicated in the eyes of many PPP grassroots supporters as the man who should have been President, and not this freaking boy-toy who is compounding the 28-year mess of the PNC. I won't be surprised if the August Congress of the PPP reveals a huge split at the upper echelons, with some definitely openly opposed to the way in which Jagdeo is running the country. This opposition could well set the stage for an emerging representative candidate for 2011. The question is: Who will be that candidate? Moses is defining himself as the one who is the exact opposite of Jagdeo, but who are Donald Ramotar, Ralph Ramkarran, or Robert Persaud? 1. Ramotar has proven, as General Secretary of the PPP, he is prepared to cover up the misdeeds of a corrupt and inept Jagdeo. Therefore he is given to ineptitude and corruption; hallmarks of communists. A straightforward communist, he should not be allowed to preside over Guyana at this time. 2. Ramkarran has proven, as the son of Boysie and a former resident in the Jagans' home, that he is a child of 'political privilege', having been the one first chosen by Mrs. Jagan to be her husband's successor, before Moses disagreed thus forcing Mrs. Jagan to go for Jagdeo as the compromise candidate. Ramkarran recently spoke at a Queens business meeting, but no one knows his position on public issues. A trained lawyer, he may be inclined to clean up corruption and fight crime using a reformed police and judiciary. But he needs an economic planning team since he is no economist or business type. 3. Persaud, originally a reporter with Mirror, then offered a scholarship to study in Moscow, he decided to remain in Guyana where he worked with the information sector, then OP and GINA and now AgriMin. He has proven that he knows the effect of manipulating the media and information to one's advantage. Like Jagdeo, he lacks the political maturity for this job that requires the ability to deal with both domestic and foreign issues within a broadbased vision. An MBA via the Internet does not qualify him as a serious academic, but it shows he is willing to play smart and cut corners to achieve his goal. That boyish smile can be deceptive since it is not who he always is but a photogenic concoction to win people. Cement Rotee and Roger Lunchmeat are basically baggage boys whose job it is to make the others look good. A DARK HORSE: If there is a dark horse in this race, it has to be Jagdeo. He can try to pull off a coup at the next Congress by getting as many votes as possible to position him as a potential party leader. At a later stage, being only 44 years old, he can unify the party leader-president titles and become President again. OR He can pull a fast one on the country by teaming up with Robert Corbin, making Corbin PM, and by way of a parliamentary amendment, extend his time in office in a unity government. This, in effect, would be the worst dictatorship Guyana will ever have. It would be worse than rigged elections. |

As a Jagdeo sycophant you should worry what history will say about your King. |

Don't compare those intellectuals with a man who proved himself as the person who has the best tract record in the economic development of Guyana.. Those Economists can't even run variety store.. |
