My Morning Paper –August 1, 2017 – Brave Speaks – On the Brink of Destruction

In a national address to the national last night, Philip ‘Brave’ Davis, Leader of the Opposition proves that we are no longer dealing with persons that are sane and slip into insanity from time to time but rather a group of persons that are truly mad and occasionally slip into sanity, not to stay for any substantive period of time, last night was not a time of sanity.

They, the Progressive Liberal Party (PLP) now seek to convince the people of The Bahamas that suddenly they have the answers, again, to the move the country forward, as Mr. Davis suggests to Prime Minister Dr. Hubert Minnis and the Free National Movement (FNM) that “much of the groundwork has been laid out already” by the PLP to make the country successful.  I say ‘suddenly’ because during their entire tenure they continued to display a lack of vision for the country and the nation continued to fail, but only now do they claim to have a plan; utter madness.

Philip Brave Davis

“Davis owns up to PLP failures – ‘Serious errors lost trust’ – but he still lashes out at PM” – The Tribune

Excerpt from this article; “PROGRESSIVE Liberal Party interim Leader Philip “Brave’ Davis admitted yesterday the former government made ‘serious’ mistakes and lost the ‘trust’ of Bahamians, but offered no outright apology for the missteps of the previous Christie administration.

Instead he south to justify the former governing party’s actions saying that during its last term in office the Christie administration was always thinking of the people affected by its polices.

Despite conceding mistakes, Mr. Davis also castigated Prime Minister Dr. Hubert Minnis saying his national address least week left the Official Opposition ‘perplexed’ and offered no vision, concrete policies or credible plans for taking the country forward.”

As one sat and listened to Mr. Davis three months into a new Free National Movement administration/government which he set out to criticize for not fixing what Mr. Davis admitted that he and his Progressive Liberal Party administration ‘messed’ up in the first place, as he admitted to making “serious errors”; one would never fathom that he was actually a part of the government that brought the country to its tipping point. It was as if he were preserving a corner of his fantasy world, in which he and his party was never wrong but if indisputable reality disagreed with their delusion, then indisputable reality must be wrong.

For Opposition Leader Davis to now condemn the present administration for not moving the country forward significantly in the past three months, when he and his administration struggled to keep their heads above water, taking us down with them over a five year period and expecting for the Bahamian people to trust a word that he says after his tenure in office as Deputy Prime Minister, is as natural as him going to the top of the water tower and jumping off in beliefs that as leader of the Progressive Liberal Party now he is invincible and can fly and has accomplished something as Deputy Prime Minister, you have not and you did not, as you console yourself in the thought of [the] “PLP is still a powerful force for good.”

Yes, Mr. Davis, your party have made some “serious errors’ when it was the government, one of which was to believe that the average Bahamian was foolish enough to still follow you blindly; they are not.
