For the glory of God and Joseph Muscat
I’m catching up on the day’s events. This is my favourite quote so far, from a report on Franco Debono’s epistle to parliament, on timesofmalta.com:
Dr Debono said his decision had matured over days and weeks. He was acting according to what he felt was right for the glory of God.
On conclusion, Dr Debono was applauded by the members of the Opposition.
SPLENDID.
And here’s my second favourite, a close runner-up, also from a report on timesofmalta.com:
European Commissioner John Dalli has called on the Broadcasting Authority to take action against broadcaster Lou Bondi.
“I expect you to take the necessary action so that this incorrigible person who believes he is above everyone else, will stop using public broadcasting for his own interests in flagrant breach of the law,” Mr Dalli said in a letter he sent the BA.
He may have come a long way from Qormi baker’s oven to EU commissioner’s office, but he took his mentality with him. Well, what can I say? At least he’s not behind bars like his green-soap-trafficking brother, he of the Jolly Roger and the Great Escape. Or has he run off to Libya again? I’ve lost track. Just as well, really.

Listen to his speech on the link above. YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE IT. You would think he had a eurozone crisis on his hands.
Il-vera tar-rahal. Petty-minded u mohh maghluq ta’ barra minn hawn.
A leader does not deserve the name unless he is willing occasionally to stand alone.
Great news, everybody. Papandreou survives to fight another day and he’ll be accepting the euro debt deal.
Part of the deal shifts 50% of bank-owned debt from the Greek taxpayer to the EU taxpayer. This will be done through the permanent bailout fund of which we guarantee close to a billion euros.
So I thought I’d congratulate all you Europhiles for being so right about EU membership: we’ve become so rich we can afford to pour money into bottomless pits… leading to a complete EU fiscal takeover… before the cards come down and we’re all set for the brand new world currency…
Meanwhile, let’s all sing in praise of Papandreou (with mainstream BS lyrics, of course):

Kev, you might not remember but a long time ago i suggested to you that we would have avoided all eurozone problems had the EU chosen the seashell as its currency. Or possibly, beads.
Why didn’t you Eurosceptics take up the suggestion? I’ve been hoarding all the mussel and clam shells I can find, in anticipation.
Bring on the renminbi, Kevvy. Got your slanty eyes yet? You’ll love it. Should fit right with your ‘thinking’.
Kev should be a villain in Dr Who.
I think you mean he’s a desperate housewife.
Vera qeghdin sew.
Antoine regales us with witty jokes exposing his economic genius, Purdie tries very hard to tickle but hasn’t a thought to deliver, little Baxxter remains Little Baxxter, while Grezz is still obsessively after what I do in the European Parliament.
Here’s something to widen your dismally narrow perspective – a rather mainstream article at level-one critical thinking (he does not get it all right, but who does?):
Europe’s future is coming into focus: hyperinflation –

The thing is, Kev, you need this particular show to remain on the road, or you’ll be out of a job. So in between the lines of your supercilious comment there’s the smug satisfaction in knowing you’re wrong, but what the hell.
What will you do when your well runs dry?

Did you notice his Bank of Valletta visa card?
That’s exactly why I put the link.
The main video on the right.

Body politics at the G20 Summit
“He was acting according to what he felt was right for the glory of God.”
What is it with our politicians and God? Do they have direct access or a priority pass?
The eurozone is floundering, strong governments/leaders are required and our backbenchers are playing Lilliput politics! Incredible but true.
They like invoking their imaginary friends to appease the populace.
Elections will soon be with us and he will harvest the result of his actions.
I thought Franco Debono was doing another one of those “Use me as you think fit” flirts with Joseph Muscat, in Parliament, yesterday.
Sad little git. I wonder if he is following Mummy’s instructions.
