Not a vanity party but an alternative one
On page A7 of yesterday’s (24/05/2011) Nassau Guardian is an article written by one Front Porch Simon under the caption “BRANVILLE McCARTNEY’S VANITY PARTY”. The writer comes across as one who is full of venom and extremely angry.
He commenced his article by castigating the news reporters of being incompetent or bad journalists. I find this description unfair and unwarrant...

Travis Robinson's unceasing vanity
Dear Editor, Hubris is characterized by the possession of a potent witches' brew of foolish pride, dangerous overconfidence, extreme arrogance and reckless ambition. At first sight it is hard to imagine one, much less all of these traits occupying the mind of the member of [...]

McCartney's Vanity Fair
McCartney's Vanity Fair
Halloween arrived early at the House of Assembly last week. It made a sneak preview during the debate on establishing a Straw Market Authority. In his debate wrap-up, Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham spooked Branville McCartney by lobbing a few political 'trick-or-treats' at the DNA leader.

Marking a time and season to exercise due diligence
As the 40 days of the Lenten season got underway on Ash Wednesday, Catholics were encouraged to faithfully be disciples of the Lord and to remain faithful to the Lenten discipline by Archbishop Patrick Pinder.

No more diplomatic gravy train for Fred Mitchell
No more diplomatic gravy train for Fred Mitchell
Dear Editor,
Fred Mitchell had the temerity to lecture the Senate on the merits of globetrotting diplomacy.
Over the past five years Fred became, perhaps, the most travelled foreign minister in the Caribbean, racking up well over a quarter million first class miles each year at the people's expense.
Fred now wants to whitewash his record. But he used a pretty specious argument to make his point t...

Branville McCartney's selfish and smug games
DNA chieftain Branville "Look How Amazing I Am" McCartney, will have his place in the political history of The Bahamas.
