Tell a lie often enough and you can believe it

Feb 23, 2011 Letters

Dear Editor:
Every so often, there are moments that define a generation. For Guyana, the YEAR 1953 was one such moment with Jagan and Burnham winning 18 of the 24 seats in the National Assembly.
What I have seen of Ramjattan and Trotman both in Georgetown and New York, the year 2011 is setting itself up as the generation defining moment for Guyana again – FINALLY.
I observed a letter in the Independent Press by one Navindra Persaud. My initial instinct was to ignore this empty letter. But I was subsequently sent an article in the Guyana Chronicle captioned “fledging AFC come under the microscope” (I do not read the rag sheet called the Chronicle) and realized that there is a coordinate effort by the oppressors to lie not only on me but my party the AFC. They cross the line in the sand.
You can call me whatever name you want, I am tough enough; but do not mess with the policies of the AFC. They are designed to free Guyana from the mental, economic and social oppression that the PPP has unleashed on its people.
If we fail to support the AFC now in 2011, then we condemn our country to another 50 years of indecision, corruption and poor public policy; thus this reply to expose the untruths.
Let us clear Navindra out of the way first since he is the more insignificant of the two insignificants. I had cause in the past to educate him on the meaning of race baiting. I am now convinced that he is one of those the Minister of Education had to promote for failing his English Language exams.
I have re-read both of my letters and failed to find any instance of race-baiting; it is just not my style. I thus challenge him and any of his sycophants to find the details of race baiting in my two letters.
With respect to the Malcolm Haripaul issue, for his information, I was at lunch with Malcolm a few weeks ago with two other AFC colleagues and he made it clear that he fully supports Mr. Granger from the PNC. We in the AFC support his rights to support anyone politically, but as a friend of the AFC, he came to our fund raiser in New York and fraternalise with us.
We accept him as a Guyanese first and are grateful for his financial contribution and respect his honesty with respect to his political position.
With respect to the Raphael Trotman issue, did Navindra know that Raphael did some of his studies at Harvard University? I trust this will give him a greater insight to the capacity of Raphael Trotman the man. Toy boys are made at Patrice Lumumba University, not Harvard.
He needs to go and find out who was Janet Jagan’s “toy boy”.
With respect to the PPP phantom political observer who tried to get personal with me, let me educate this fool. I came from the belly of the PPP and I know the entire play book of the Marxist in the PPP.
In the PPP they teach you, if you cannot destroy a person and his policy with facts, then you invent the facts to achieve your ends. So I am happy to note in classic Marxist style they are aiming at me with figments of their imagination.
Their democratic centrism philosophy clearly instructs them to throw mud and hope that it sticks. Let me be clear, their mud can never stick on any of us in the AFC. We are patriots who love country before self and the Guyanese people are locking on to us in thousands, just wait for E-day and see.
As a result of the PPP mismanagement of Guyana, the days ahead would not be easy but we in the AFC are committed and preparing ourselves to the task of working to make our Guyana the Singapore of the Americas.
