Dear Editor,
IT IS well known that the lust for power begets the worst kind of human, one who becomes void of any semblance of logical thought, as only the acquisition of this ultimate goal pervades the mind. In fact, it is always a case where reason is readily abandoned, and all rational thinking is forgotten, since the latter process often should serve as a check to headlong madness. Without these mental stop signs, the intemperate is often displayed, with recklessness becoming the only guide.

It is obvious, that with the ruling of the CCJ, the above scenario will re-commence its expected appearances in our political milieu. But since our election environment is often branded “the silly season”, whatever that is, it is tradition to listen to some outrageous statements; statments that range from the unthinkable to the downright bizarre.

Exactly one of these statements, clearly absurd, for its undoubted asinine impracticality has already been issued by a certain professional with an undisguised political affiliation.
Asked about his view on the CCJ’S ruling, he opined that elections could be held within 28 days! This drew a response from another well-known and learned professional who said that it was impractical, given the number of things that have to be done. I do believe that he may have been referring to GECOM’s preparatory measures that must be completed before an election date can be announced. I make no apology when I state that such a statement that falls outside of the mainstream of human reasonableness can only be derived from an irrational type of human; one of the many that aided the frenetic attempt to remove the government, indulges in the realm of deepest unrealism, and both reckless and dangerous fantasy.

One wonders on which side of daily reality this professional resides.
Regards,
Earl Hamilton
