IF!

If we make it a must that leaders should resign and take responsibility for talking nonsense, we would be left with no more cabinet ministers. The whole of last week was full of nonsensical stuff uttered by our esteemed YBs. I mean we are all used to their rubbish but last week was unprecedented. I mean they were inconsistent, incoherent, inappropriate, insensitive, illogical and well the most apt description Irrelevant and idiotic. With the exception of a certain BN leader in Kelantan who spoke on the need to restore power to the judiciary, all the others should have just kept their thoughts to themselves. I still believe that you can't tell if one is a fool if he keeps his mouth shut. Sadly many of these chose to blurt out all the rubbish otherwise hidden in their skull.

We hear of plans to develop Malaysia but going by the latest trends since LANDSLIDE victory, most of our leaders are bent on bringing us back to the dark ages, I mean literally. We keep everyone in the dark when they should know, we stop people from debating issues, we hinder others from questioning policies, we suppress alternative views, we oppress those who wish to speak their minds, anything different from the official line is inferred as unpatriotic, rebellious and anti-establishment. Our officials are hypersensitive, intolerant, xenophobic, unable to talk sense, articulate facts to back their standpoints, they choose to hide behind walls. sigh!!! Malaysia is a long way off from BOLEH! if we are led by people such as these.

The sad part is that we have a media totally subservient to the political masters. They practice an amazing amount of self-censorship on the wrongs in the system but when it comes to news where they should ease back and practice wisdom and sensitivity, they go all the way to sensationalize the sex, the crime just to sell their miserable and pathetic papers. To the editors and all those responsible for putting us on the downhill plunge, mark my words. You shall surely be judged for your handiworks one day!
