Oh no Mr. Impsbert...

Usually, an experience which summons much elation and joy in my life, turned out this morning to be one which was emotionally antonymious (derived from the word antonym, i.e. opposite). To cut a long story short...Mr. Colm Impbert (hereinafter called "Impsbert") tell the doubles man (hereinafter called "the victim") that he has to move because he (the victim) causing too much traffic and bad driving.

Now for those of you who don't know, Mr. Impsbert is the MP for our area and also the Minister of Works and Transport. And like most politicians, he has "secondary cause as a primary effect syndrome". So it's not that most Trinidadians drive like jackasses and Maraval already has bad traffic because of poor planning by his said ministry. No, it's the doublesman's fault, oops, sorry the victim's fault.

Let me expatiate on the "Secondary Cause as a Primary Effect Syndrome" from which all Politicians suffer. The source of this psychosis is yet to identified, verified, validified, or made-up-ified by me. But it can be defined as a state of being or always of the idiotic opinion that the real cause of a problem is not in fact the real cause of the problem, but some other unrelated and disjointed thing is blamed or identified as the "real" cause. This is why I was happy when I heard the slogan, "guns don't kill people, people kill people". I always said, don't blame the guns, they don't shoot on their own, even though some are automatic weapons.

But seriously, politicians never deal with the real reasons or causes of problems, but always seek to address other unrelated issues and then wonder why, while looking quite stupid on TV, the problem still exists. Then they just blame the previous administration. Ah lie?

I will now try to be very unpolitical like or maybe I could just say sane, sensible and logical. I will now try to deal with the real problem, the real cause, which will then affect the real effect, which is what we want to deal with in the first place.

I move to remove Mr. Impsbert from Office as I think this will be a good move, one which I am moved to reccommend. My recommendations are based on the fact that Mr. Impsbert and his ministry have been doing road improvements works in Maraval that were supposed to finish by February of this year. To date, the works are not even 50% completed. In fact, calling it works is a contradiction, it should be called stops or slows. This has been responsible for more traffic than that blamed on our victim.

Mr. Impsbert, leave the doublesman alone and go and do something proper fuh de nation.

Nuff said!
