Yes we all do it, maybe a little and maybe a lot but somehow only a few of us can blow it out of proportion. There are those who can’t put a brake on it and then keep on going like a car out of control, well a car that might plunge down from the top of a mountain. It’s not easy for anybody to look away from a car wreck. There’s this bit to see, and the next and that part.
Oh yes. Simply to be put lets take a look at most uncontrollable freak show of our President. We all have come to understand and witness the pile of lies that keeps growing with the spree of elections. We’ve all seen the show before and yet why are we being fed the stinky crap all over again? Let me give you a small briefing on how we (Some Maldivians) swallowed the shit.
It all began once upon a time, by creating a party system. Mind you, we were advised that such a system can destroy the social harmony of such a small nation as ours. However, most saw it as a ploy by the old man who ruled the country for 30 years. Yes, by that time we had come to believe that every single word out of the old man’s mouth was for the safeguard of his very own position and we will have none of it. After a roar of voices and convincing speeches, a stamp of heavenly approval of the party system was blossoming in the very narrow minds of our people. There were visions of bridges, high speed highways, low rent, spacious homes and for some, the thought of free electricity and water! True.
Few years ago, we had “respect” for elders and neighbors, strangers and friends. A few will be found yelling filth down the road and people will shake their heads and shrug. The society grew up with the message, never to become a nuisance and a menace to society. However, some didn’t have the level of decent education and for them joining a political party was an opportunity to get noticed. When they tried to convey constructive criticism, it came out as verbal harassment and suddenly they got the attention they had never before got in their life time. Thus, social harmony was flushed down the toilet with the demonstrations, riots and every noisy act of theirs giving the young generation a wrong message.
We all wanted to experience a change, but not the way we are now. It’s only been a few months after Mohamed Nasheed (Anni) took office but already we have heard the song too many times and enough is enough! Now that the Parliament elections are approaching, he’s shooting off his mouth. They think they have to tell us what we want to hear to get elected, they do what they can, to make big money from the lobbies and help out the corporations, not us. We pay them well and they get to give themselves raises, the best health plans and pension plans that money can buy. They also get good pension schemes when they retire.
The truth about the way this nation is run is so awful and geared to serve a few selfish agendas that if the truth kept being let out then people would eventually completely reject the system. So the system does what ever it can to survive, one way is give liars careers and honest, educated people, the sack.
For uncontrollable freaks there’s always a bitter end. We have witnessed how it began, we are witnessing how it’s really going on, and we will hopefully see it to the end. In the meantime, every time his foot touches the soil of the islands, we know deep inside, it’s going to be the same old story: flats, flats, flats. He can really preach, like Rasputin, don’t you think?

Yes, politicians are liars.
