Galvanic twitches…

…from the coalition
Even when a frog is dead, it’ll twitch when hit with a current. Doesn’t meant it has come back to life…it’s just that the old circuits (nerves) are still in place, and reflexive movements are induced. It’s called “galvanic twitching”.
This is what we’re seeing with the coalition right now. All the press statements and mouthing off are merely induced by the unrelenting blows they’re taking from without and within, and they’re flailing about like the monster after Frankenstein zapped him with all those lightning bolts!!
OK…OK…your Eyewitness knows the analogy is strained, but how else can you explain what’s going on in the APNU/AFC camp? Just doesn’t make any sense! Imagine, Amna Ally saying that even if they’re able to show a SINGLE dead person “voted”, the election would then be invalidated!! What the heck is this?? Karl Popper’s test of “falsifiability”, where the existence of one black swan will invalidate the claim that “all swans are white”?? What is this?? A thought experiment??
This isn’t how elections are evaluated – even the electronic ones. So, she wants a manually executed election involving over 30,000 GECOM employees and 440,000 persons not to have a single flaw?? This is just galvanic twitching!! Has she ever heard about permitted variance in elections and other such mass exercises? Or maybe it’s those Russian spies who may be capable of not only hacking paper and pencil voting, but can also raise the dead!!
Yet, after the recount has shown that there have been dozens of instances wherein Mingo and his Minions (a girl band from the sixties?) inflates APNU/AFC’s numbers by over 1500 while reducing the PPP’s by over a hundred, Amna Ally and her PNC crowd aren’t willing to dump Mingo’s numbers?? Guess the electrodes only give them a jolt when they have to spout inanities. Fact of the matter is that with their strategy of throwing mud every day at the ACCC and hoping something will stick (another galvanic twitch, if there ever was one!!) has already worn thin, and no one’s taking them seriously.
Then there’s the Washington lobbyists Harmon had hired on behalf of the coalition Government – with funds collected by passing around a hat from “supporters”!! After Granger did his Shaggy bit and insisted “Wasn’t me!!” in a shrill falsetto, you’d think that was the end of that! But here comes news that Harmon has now hitched up with Patterson from the AFC and extended the contract. Gotta be a galvanic twitch!
Surely, they don’t think that anyone in Washington would take any lobbyist seriously when the head of the government they’re supposed to be pushing has denied them thrice??
Dead men walking!!

…and the US Ambassador
Two of the APNU/AFC top media hacks (no, not the DPI…he’s outta here, along with his Rabbi, Nagamootoo!) Woolford and Moseley, stepped up to the plate to “interview” US Ambassador Sara-Ann Lynch. They clearly though they’d bushwhack her with all the talking points they’d been spewing to rile up their supporters into an anti-American rage. This had to be the galvanic twitch of the century!!
Lynch is no Republican party donor who was rewarded with a posh (!) posting, but a career State Department senior who’d run a US$5 billion budget at USAID on behalf of Democratic and Republican administrations. So, when the two flat-footed hacks asked her about “interference” in Guyana’s elections, she asked them how different was the US Embassy and Washington’s rhetoric in 2015, when APNU/AFC were in the Opposition?? She’d FUNDED that program!!
It wasn’t only a matter of what’s sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander…but that the sauce of democracy has always been the US gift that keeps on giving!!
“No mas! No mas,” the media wankers whimpered!!

…at GuySuCo
The last of the fired workers of Wales finally collected their severance pay – four years after it was due.
The galvanic twitch from the dead GuySuCo was a timely reminder of why the coalition lost the elections.
