					<description><![CDATA[Personal , Personal, Personal!  This is to address to all those silly people who can&#039;t come up with sound arguments thus resorting to useless ( trying to be funny sort of) remarks.

I have heard all sorts of hurting remarks both from nationalists and labourites but whilst rejoicing, I prefer to keep my  cool and not go down beloew level.  I am happy to have accomplished this.  It&#039;s a skill you know you have to learn.  Be happy and comfortable.  It pays in the end.  Die-hards or moderates: We all had a single vote each. Remember that!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hi Daphne,
It is true then that Dr JPO is not part of the new cabinet. What a shame! All those votes wasted. This is my first vote, and I voted PN but I am already having second doubts....
If even Dr Gonzi is not willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, then maybe, jut maybe, Sant was right after all, and there is corruption....]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[hopefully we will get back to normality as soon as possible, hopefully those laborites who chose fit to raise their menacing heads placing political agenda into our normal everyday life will go back into their caves. hopefully they will choose a leader who will teach them that hatred only foments hatred and now they have to dance to the tune for another 5yrs. but most of all hopefully and here my hopes are high we have a prime minister who has emerged as a truly determined,dynamic and respectable leader with a proper sense of direction that will continue to improve our political maturity]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Thank God this is all over and PN are still in power!!! I could have made history repeat itself last Thursday (the day of the last mass meeting) in Naxxar. A wild bunch of MLP supporters threw at me a beer bottle which luckily missed and then a lit &#039;suffarel&#039; aimed straight at my face.  Had I not seen the guy actually lighting it, I would have suffered severe burns.  This was all as a result of me doing the thumb-down after being provoked and offended with words I don&#039;t even know how to repeat..........]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I have always followed politics in Malta and it seems that in the Labour camp there has always been this negative thinking streak or scaremongering campaign when an election or a special event is to take place. Could be their DNA. Let&#039;s go back to th sixties when Gorg Borg Olivier ALONE was trying to bring Independence to our islands. The labour supporters in those days were spreading rumours around that Malta could not survive without &quot;Iz-zejza tar-Regina&quot; and that we had no resources of our own and they used to tell us that we have only &quot;Blat u gremxul&quot;

As usual the PN was courageous enough not to take heed of all this scaremongering and after bringing about Independence, it embarked on an economic upheaval of this country and Malta starting witnessing a prosperity never seen before.

But Labour as usual starting the 1971 election campaign scaring people away. The cost of living &quot;Mara Maltija trid tlahhaq mal-hajja? Ivvota Labour&quot; and also regarding government incompetence &quot;Malta Marida Medicina Mintoff&quot; was the slogan. But haven&#039;t we heard these two slogans again during THIS campaign. What&#039;s new with Labour anyway.

During the last Mass Meeting held at Saqqajja Rabat in 1971, Gorg Borg Olivier warned the Maltese electorate (Malta was really enjoying an economic boom never seen before) not to change horses whilst crossing the river. They did and I don&#039;t need reminding you what Malta went through between 1971 and 1987. How sour the Medicina Mintoff was !!!!

But they never learn. Came 1996 and the NEW Labour Leader in the run up for the elections managed to scare the wits out of the Maltese electorate regarding VAT, promising that he would do away with it immediately and that if the Nationalists were returned to power it would go up from 15% to 24%. Well we all know what happened, No need to remind anyone of the new formula, this new MEDICINE which we had to swallow again.

Now we move to 2003 and the European Community issue. Talking about scaremongering would be an understatement here. Don&#039;t need to remind anyone of you about the Sicilians running all over us and oh! Karmenu&#039;s nice one.....we would be pestered with HIV...do you remember this one eh?

And Charles Mangion had the cheek to tell us that there is something wrong with the Nats DNA!!!!!!!

I think i&#039;ve said enough !!!!!]]></description>
