This is beyond jaw dropping. The last time I checked this was a democracy which translates to me that I have freedom of not only speech but also movement. If you ask me for my opinion and I give it to you when did it become wrong to state how I feel? We as Bahamians were given an opportunity to exercise our rights. We went to the polls made a decision and the majority ruled. How did we ever become ungrateful for having a choice. I find this editorial not only biased but also extremely hurtful. Regardless of what the FNM PLP or DNA has or hasn't done for one or more of us it is completely out of line to say that the entire nation is ungrateful because the FNM was voted out of office. Hubert Ingraham refused his seat by way of choice. He resigned by his own "choice". No one will forget what Mr. Ingraham has done neither the legacy he has left behind, but we have to also embrace the present. Right now isn't the time to point fingers, it's time to come together as a nation and do our part the best way we can to assist in improving our economy. The power of the people is more powerful than the people in power.

I love this. Great piece of unbiased writing! Not only does it suck up but it also succeeds in insulting the entire Bahamas for exercising our right to vote.

who is the tasteless, biased writer of this article? Sir/Madam you are a disgrace and these are the things the Bahamian public are trying to rid this country of. You are obviously one sided. The Tribune is supposed to be a prestigious and respectable paper but you Sir/Madam have made it worst than the Punch. I am a Bahamian who had once voted FNM in 2007 but then voted PLP on May 7th. My reason for voting was not because of bribery, in fact I havent seen any signs of bribery at all. I voted because I Believe in the Bahamas. I got tired of Mr. One Man Band and his dictatorial style of governance. It seems when they hold power for too long they become arrogant and selfish. We are a blessed nation, and God is our co-pilot. You write as if Ingraham was Moses or better yet Christ Jesus. Ingraham was just a mortal man, one who should have humbled himself. He was ruthless and the entire FNM campaign was about Ingraham. But he has gone fishing now, and is now a public disgrace. I am for my people, the Bahamian public and if Christie thinks for one minute he can behave like Ingraham did he will be voted out next time too. My God doesnt sleep. And Ingraham deserved more major punishment than this!

People are insulted because it's an opinion expressed on behalf of the Tribune and in essence all of it's employees by extension. To call all Bahamians that didn't vote for HAI ungrateful and then to predict impending doom upon the country that we ALL call home is down right ridiculous,unnecessary and from a journalism stance irresponsible. They should just change the name to the FNM Tribune.
