					<description><![CDATA[I just admire your patience in reading and answering the idiots who migrate to this website, after the party that is Facebook.

It seems that they have migrated en masse. They smell blood, and are currently salivating.

Lino Spiteri&#039;s article today was a piece of crap. He is not detached from the current crisis, and seems to doing his best to help his Qormi buddy, who is currently suffering in Brussels. 

Does he form part of the Xibka?

He has been on the anti-Gonzi bandwagon for quite some time now. His emotional anti-Gonzi state of mind seems to have blurred his judgement, so much that he had the audicity to claim that Franco Debono has no personal interest. 

Whatever happens, I just hope that Gonzi does not appease Debono one more time. 

That would be truly a desperate act of weakness. In a few weeks&#039; time, there would be new demands.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m of the opinion that Franco Debono will vote in favour of the government. His options are the following:

1. Resign
2. Abstain
3. Vote Against
4. Vote in Favour

It is only the last option that will give him the attention and importance that he craves, in that HE could have forced and election but HE did not. Obviously there will be a number of reasons why HE voted as such and these will include:

A. The good for the country
B. The good for HIS Nationalist supporters
C. And that he found it hard to assist Labour by his actions
D. That the government has drawn up a list of actions that will be implemented as HE suggested

I might be wrong - it&#039;s 1 out of 4 options - yet I have a strong feeling that HE is heading that way. If it&#039;s the case, just see the amount of time he will be allocated during the no-confidence debate. 

Anything extra beyond a standard MP&#039;s allocation is a clear indication of this.]]></description>
