Ridiculous Untruths?

Bloggers are referred to as lunatics belonging to a "Lunatic Fringe" [Link]. Now we've been promoted to be in a "Cowboy Town" [Link] by PM Lee. According to Ng E-Jay, Singapore is Cowboy Town belonging to PAP. If so, maybe we bloggers are Red Indians :) PAP and their posse have big Gatling guns like CNA, SPH and others to blast their self-serving truths while we are still shaving wood to make arrows to hit the truths that they try so hard to ridicule and suppress.

Before I "lead more people astray" with my ranting I wonder if they speak with fork tongue when they accuse bloggers of spreading "Ridiculous Untruths"? As far as I'm concerned, I write to get it off my chest [see About Me on the right;)] to release my mental tension so that I remain sane and ease my bodily tension to prevent another heart attack. Talking cock or sing song, I just enjoy cocking a snook at the elites especially those who think that they are so fookingly pristine just because they wear white. People trust you when you do what you say and say what you do. No need to wear White!

Maybe the Truth is: 'Truths of the commoners are "ridiculous untruths" of the PAP - Party Against People'!

Pray tell if the following is another"ridiculous untruth" that "leads people astray"?

The first role of the President is to be the Head of State. At home, the President stands for

all Singaporeans. He has to be independent and above politics. He must be fair,

knowledgeable and balanced, especially when called on to resolve disputes between

different organs of the state. Abroad, the President is Singapore’s face to the world. He has

to carry our flag with confidence and dignity. He must have the stature to stand with world

leaders and represent our country.

The second important role of the president is to protect our nation’s financial reserves —

which is our country’s savings. This responsibility is what makes our Presidency special and

is why we are having an election.With the present economic uncertainties, it is very likely that the next President will be involved in decisions about Singapore’s financial health. These decisions will affect the future of all Singaporeans.

Today, I ask you to put your trust in my years of experience. I ask for your vote. I will

represent our nation with confidence, dignity and a steady hand to protect our reserves.

Red Indian 'Broken Heart' asks:

1. How can you "be fair, knowledgeable and balanced, especially when called on to resolve disputes between different organs of the state" when you can't even answer to why your simqua 'precious organ' son Patrick was given a NS disruption for 12 years while you were the Defense Minister. Why did he do only 3 months BMT plus 3 months OCS and ended up a 3rd Sergeant playing with test tubes in an aircon room while other mothers' 'expendable' sons are risking their lives doing the real thing, national service? Where is the "fair"ness?
   
   
2. How can I put my trust in your experience after what you did to Tang Liang Hong? What did Tang Liang Hong do to you and your Demolition Team that he ended up as a refugee and had to pay you and your Defamation Team $8,000,000? Just because he made a police report to deny that he's an anti-Christian and chinese chauvinist? Hell, he didn't even ask his Indian neighbour to stop cooking curry! Ok ok, it's the judge's decision that TLH was guilty of defamation. Can you please tell me what exactly did Tang Liang Hong say or do that got you so riled up that you had to gang sue him? [Link] and [Link]
   
   
3. It is difficult to accept you as a President when you were caught in Cheng San GRC Polling Centre [Link]
   
   
4. "With the present economic uncertainties, it is very likely that the next President will be involved in decisions about Singapore’s financial health."
   Until you decided to run for President, you were the Vice Chairman and Executive Director of GIC. While in GIC, only you and your Demolition Team (and other kah kee nung) know about the financial health of our sovereign wealth. As it is getting more and more difficult for Singaporeans to retrieve their CPF (what with the ever-increasing Medisave, Minimum Sum and delayed withdrawal from 55 to 62 to until you die?), daft Singaporeans are thinking that losses incurred by GIC may be the reason why we can't touch our CPF savings. Some cleverer daft Singaporeans even think that CPF is just another form of tax! Ridiculous? It may be the Truth!
   
   

We are sick and tired of being played by those in white. With you as president, it will be the same auld lang syne - same old, same old again. With facts (ridiculous truths?) I see above, we need someone who can really provide the real check and balance.

We have had enough of wayang, enough of sandiwara. George Yeo had to go because Singaporeans want 1st World Parliament. I hope you will go too because we want a 1st World President! Not another, 'you scratch my back, I scratch your back; you take care of mine, I take care of yours while we let the daft people suffer' kind of President!

Honestly, if you wanted to do a job that you say you are good at, you should have stayed in GIC. Then you would not have brought unto yourself and your family such vile revelations! Or as some cleverer daft Singaporeans suggest, "He's asked to hold on to the shit hole cover. Someone has to prevent the skeletons from falling out of the sovereign wealth fund cabinets. With an independent President, the truth about the SWF including GIC and Temasek may stink to high heaven." Touche?

While you lament that you are 'deeply disappointed' with the booing , heckling and the revelation of Patrick, please understand that commoners are 'deeply disappointed' with you too. Even though you are rich and powerful and well connected while they are barely getting by, disappointment works both ways!

People trust you when you do what you say and say what you do. No need to ask!

What we need is a President with a heart!
