    When are we ever going to dismantle this patronage system that patronage system that gives enormous power to the president and not to the people. I knew EJS was going to do something foolish after that for show firings.

    This why our system of selecting majors of cities is wrong. The Major of each city should be elected by the residence of the City and not be subject to the approval of the senate nor appointed by the president.

    Oh Hail Liberia. Mary kept the city clean. The Senators who deny her have problem keeping their own arse's clean, I swear.

    Nonsense! what do you actually mean about the phrase" non government material" You hypocrites, first take the logs out of your own eyes and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother's eye. The present war against our progress now is ignorant, disease and poverty. Monrovia the capital city of Mama Liberia is very filthy; We need proper sanitations to crush the disease in our environment. Corruption is very rampant in the three braches of government and at the market places, these are some of the ills that the plenary of the senate and house should deliberating on, instead of telling one that they are not governmental material. In fact, what makes one governmental material.
