Jamaica Gleaner Commentary
published: Sunday | November 12, 2006

EDITORIAL - Ill-informed NHT analysis
We expect that there will be ill-informed analysis and a fair bit of sanctimonious declarations over the fact that the National Housing Trust (NHT) reported a $1.85 billion deficit on its operations for its 2005/2006 financial year.

Revisit National Housing Trust policy

Emotional baggage carried ceaselessly by generation after generation, in time seems to become ingrained into one's sub-conscious. (Hewitt)


Portia is no pushover

I was very disappointed the other day when The Gleaner edited my column. I was talking about the Prime Minister and Desmond Richards and used the word 'Darkie', with a capital 'D', to describe them. (Ritch)


Isolated Bush in the garden

He may not believe it but I bet when he reads the newspapers and watches the newscasts, President George W. Bush will finally realise that his party has lost control of the House of Representatives and the Senate. (Taylor)


Keeping the 'dead' alive

Modern medicine has progressed to the point that it is able artificially to keep alive persons otherwise long considered dead. (Brown)
