Imissek rajtu il-bierah lil Silvio Parnis jipprezenta programme fuq xi Favourite TV ma’ professur u tabib laburist li bejnietna l-anqas jinteressani x’jismu, fuq l-after effects tax xorb u l-ikel waqt il-festi tar-rahal, fosthom pressjoni u gass.

Trid tara biex temmen kemm huma lura.

It means Joseph’s been foxed by the facts – again.

The only price people care about is the one they themselves pay.

Too right. “I have the luxury of choice,” Joseph recently told an interviewer.

Indeed.

No. That’s just snake-oil Joseph’s way of keeping everyone happy until he gets what he wants.

Do we smell fear?

It should be clear by now that JPO’s loyalty lies with the Labour Party.

Now his mission is to cause as much damage as possible to the PN. The situation has become really unsustainable.

What will the PN do when JPO takes up some other populist issue and threatens the goverment with it?

It will make Gonzi and the PN look even weaker than it looks already, something which should be avoided before the general election at all costs.

In the bizzaro world of PL-defined “reality,” the only “facts” allowed are those that express (the non-contextualized distortion) that PN “bad” and PL “good”, “better”, and “best”.

Reason and logic are irrelevant when the Fireworks (and Earthquake) Committee, run by Chairman Joseph, expect to celebrate the Electoral Festa in a default campaign against a demonized opponent. Its all word magic and the weapons of words (not as logical argument, but as one who attacks rationality and defines the desired reality).

Who needs logic, rational argument, or plans, when consensus will be imposed by those who hold the local power of the nation? Of course, eventually, after the damage will be done, Malta will discover (for those who do not yet understand) that in the political-economic reality of the globalized and EU-world “Malta is not an Island” nor a “Switzerland in the Mediterranean”.

For a political party that believes in “the will to power,” the PL will not be able to use irrational politics indefinitely in the real world.

But the short-term and long-term question will be whether or not voters can be more rational in the national interest, or whether they are simply greedy opportunists and identity-based “true believers” who want to “belong” to what they perceive will be the “winning side”.

Will PL as well as PN supporters be convinced by rationality and the arguments of reason? Who knows? The governments one gets are not always sane choices.

And the present state of existence is no absolute guarantee for an assured future–as if everything built over a generation may be taken for granted–as if all that is necessary is image and desire [such as was Greece, until the financial/political reality demolished an illusion for a painless recovery].

Morton’s fork.

Undecided voters need to do is think hard about to who they want to entrust their immediate future and that of their country.

There’s Joseph Muscat and there’s Lawrence Gonzi.

Who can best be relied upon to tackle the present and ongoing European economic crisis?

Who is the more likely to put the country’s interest before their own?

Who is the more likely to come up with innovative policies?

Who can best guaranty our liberty, without a shadow of doubt?

Who has always believed in us being capable to hold our own with larger nations as equals, without threats and shenanigans.

Anything else is petty and insignificant.

Don’t play games with all our futures. It’s not empty words and half-baked policies we need. It’s total commitment to duty away from the cameras and without pomp and ceremony.

Just take a good look at the two men. It really isn’t hard to choose between them.
