					<description><![CDATA[I am a follower of your blog and although not always in agreement with your comments, many a time I find it an eye-opener and quite revealing. 

However, I feel that comparing the PL with Catholic Prayer Groups is stretching it too far. I have personal experience of these local prayer groups and can confirm that my spiritual experience has been enriched and my life has turned for the better thanks to these prayer groups. So please Daphne I suggest you stick to the political situation in Malta where you so bravely expose values alien to our culture.

&lt;strong&gt;[Daphne - Your explanation illustrates the point, Mrs Vella. It is the recruitment and retaining methods I am talking about. The nature of the actual religion is irrelevant. You will notice that I also mentioned Bible leaders in America. The methods are the same right across the spectrum. It is not the actual religion that makes you feel good, but the sense of belonging and the support of others who are welcoming and forgiving. You find that in Catholic prayer groups. Others have clearly found that in Labour&#039;s &#039;prayer meetings&#039;.]&lt;/strong&gt;]]></description>

Joseph Muscat&#039;s worst enemy is time.

Time reveals all.  Time catches up.  Time exposes each scam for what it is.

Joseph Muscat will be seeking to manipulate time and pre-empt it.

Time around issues would need to be made to stand still for long enough to collect the detail and work on it meticulously.

The scam merchant&#039;s success is when he can hover on from scam to scam unhindered and uncontested.

The flurry, chaos, distraction and confusion is planted to help him along.

Terminology planted by him used by all ascertains that the playing field is his.

Refuse to adopt his terminology. Refuse to use his idiotic expressions.

Recognise that jibes of negativity are a deflection.
The false positivity high they are on can last a decade before the facades crumble enough. 

Constantly bring up the scams of the past.

Retain the links between scams and expose them: - Joseph Muscat will try and keep them separate so that the failure of one will not domino the others.  But there will always be a link - kept hidden - and incognito so that no one can trace this &quot;mastermind scam designer.&quot;  

And so that Joseph Muscat can always lay the blame at someone else&#039;s feet.

In that way, until time manages to catch up with him, he will always be chopping the heads off others without compunction.  

Use and lose.

His bluff needs to be called time and time again.

Until that moment where time stands still for him and all the blame is at his feet.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The level of ignorance on these islands is unbelievable.

Aren&#039;t these people able to think for themselves?  Don&#039;t they have any principles?  

And does Cyrus Engerer have absolutely no shame?  On the day he was found guilty and sentenced for such a vengeful and spiteful criminal act, he goes and addresses a political activity.  I would have expected the people there to stand up and leave and not listen and worse, applaud to his words.

And that buffoon Joseph Muscat baptises him a soldier of steel.  I cannot believe how low these people can stoop.  At this rate the centre of the earth will soon be within reach.

As the saying goes, hope is the last to die, and I sincerely hope that those with a little grey matter are able to see this for what it is.]]></description>
