This assumes that this individual is prepared to come in and clean house and make the needed changes to get Jamaica on a sounder moral, social, and economic/financial footing. It is glaringly apparent that the present folks don’t possess the fortitude, attitude and aptitude to do this.

As for Ernest Smith’s rants about homosexuals, well he’s just one more in a line of fools and hypocrites that have come to prominence for all the wrong reasons. It also proves that ignorance and stupidity are not exclusive to the PNP but are alive, well and thriving in the governing JLP and we all wonder why Jamaica is where it is.

Jamaica is one sorry nation, focusing on this when there are so many other pressing matters.

It would appear that you suffer from a Jamaican resident form of “elitism” with your generalized comments. Simply living in another country does not mean you adopt, much less accept, their lifestyles. In fact, there have always been ample opportunities in Jamaica to adopt unhealthy, deeming, and abominable lifestyles; and, this is increasing as time rolls on especially with faster media and access to many questionable sources.

You should study Arab art and history as their societies were know for homosexuality and other depravities; it is Islam that claimed to be against such behaviors, but even in some Islamic States, male prisoners are buggered by guards as part of their interrogation while women are repeatedly raped. Your will also find that many Islamic States not only diminish women via illiteracy, but consider them the lowest form of humanity.

Bruce had no choice but to say that he would not appoint homosexuals to his cabinet. Had he said otherwise, he would have been advised, by dance hall vocalists, to find an English cork then run and jump over the Victoria Pier. He was being politically correct, but that does not mean that there is no closet, bi, or down-low activities going on… Anyway, Kadene’s article was not about private lifestyles but about political behavior.

I have always maintained that the JLP would not have returned to office anytime soon had the NEC not selected Portia via plurality, rather than via a run-off election – she did not have the support of the majority of party delegates. The PNP gave Bruce a victory that he never earned – he never won a parliamentary seat as NDM President. Therefore, although he may be a good man, I do not have high expectations for him at this time.

Politics is a strange animal, as the politicians strategize to gain power and influence, while the electorate may vote comprehensively, single issue, or a mix. However, Obama’s rise in the American system may well be the stimulus for true reform in Jamaica’s politics and governance. Mass media and the Internet connect us all, and give us lessons in POL/PAD101: Politics and Administration that we never had before.

We as a people need to be less gullible, and recognize and acknowledge our Creator given skills and abilities. We need to stop looking for a single person to change things and recognize that change is within us and not beyond us. “Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery, none but ourselves can free our minds”, “Open up your eyes and see, inside is your reality; Open up your eyes and see, what you see can be your reality.”

As long as you can be pushing your pelvis in some man’s face at Carnival, or dropping out of your clothes at a cocktail party, as long as it is a WHITE MAN perversion, you are happy to accept it. Thank GOD Golding has the courage of his convictions!

It is cute now for the usually GOD fearing Jamaican to support children born out of wedlock, boys prostituting themselves, whores selling themselves to tourists and others (sorry, they are commercial sex workers)

You have indeed become a nasty bunch when you can tolerate the thought of a man’s penis reaming another’s ass in the name of LOVE.

So sophisticated! So erudite! WOW! But certainly NOT Jamaican.

Mr Golding is dividing WHOM? The 300 gays in Jamaica from the other 3.5 million? I can assure you that others like us are about to rise and put a stop to the slackness. While you gay and straight run up and down, looking money, cheating on wives, husbands and “partners” and insulting God Almighty in the name of “tolerance” there is a core of us that knows that this too shall pass.
