Minor nitpick: the word is “candicacy”, not “candidature”, unless you’re trying to make some kind of pun with “caricature”.

Mahmood, european democracies took long to reach what they are today no doubt, but there was hope but there is none here. besides, it is not right to start today where they started, coz we too have brains and the whole enchilada.

[...] With local elections slated for November 25, Mahmood is also unhappy that the former Speaker is running again – despite announcing earlier that he wouldn’t. The last minute entrance, although he would like to think is being dramatic, the fact of the matter Harry is much better at it. Nevertheless, his excuse is that he was in conference with God, as he does every Ramadhan in the last 10 days. Don’t know what they were talking about (I think it really was just a single-sided conversation if you ask me, and Dhahrani has the hammer) but I guess he interpreted the conversation that he has to do his public duty and place his posterior on an already reserved Speaker of the House leather seat.

im waiting the 25th of November 3la a7ar mn iljamr, just to see this time whether people will chose wisely or not since some opposition figures with a bright past and good ideas had decided to run. I hope really that candidates like Dr. Muneera Fakhro and Abdulaziz Abul win, i mean if Dr. Muneera won this would be a true honor for the Bahraini women, at least she has some accomplishments. بكل بساطة ما نبي مجلس نواب بصام ذبحته المعاش التقاعدي اللي اصلا هم ما يستاهلونه و مفشلينه كل يوم بهوشاتهم

Mahmood, CWTN,

hehe yeah. This got me thinking: Perhaps the swearing in ceremony for any high level government official should be getting his face shaved in public while televised. Only then is one “sworn” in, to leave religion out politics. hehe

I can see it now…the Razor Revolution!
