I should hope not. The former PM seems to have given him Carte Blanche to travel the world with his entourage at the Bahamian taxpayers expense so "piling on" just wouldn't be right. Because one has to defend the party no matter how bad things really were. (Tongue planted firmly in cheek).
Mr. Mitchell then proceeds to defend all the trips he took by suggesting Mr. Darren Henfiled, the new FNM Minister of Foreign Affairs should not apologize for taking trips.
Mr. Mitchell says that a foreign minister travels. That’s what they do. They fly around because other governments want you to “help them with things.”
Well blow me down. In this world of modern technology meetings can be held over the Internet at a fraction of the cost, saving the country thousands, if not millions.
But of course they wanted his help so he couldn't give his advice over the phone.
How self righteous.
Albert Castiglia, the great South Florida bluesman has a song about a spurned lover titled “Have You No Shame” and I just can’t get the chorus out of my head.
It goes something like this:
“Have you no shame, have you no shame? Have you no shame, have you no shame?”
