    Who does that dude in the dark suit think he is? :) All joking aside, I think you could argue this country won’t go anywhere good until the cabinet members wear dark suits, even in the summer. White suits are not for serious people.

    Even the goose-stepping yellow-clad Hizbos with stiff-armed salutes look less clownish than these buffoons. What’s the point of wearing white? Freaking silly stooges. Whatever happened to the Lebanese adage about “sitting askant but talking straight”???

    Other thing I was thinking is, why is the cabinet so large? You can run this tiny country with half a dozen good guys. It’s a joke. That table is very long, I don’t think anything gets accomplished, except stroking each other with pleasantries until the next street fight. No point ranting. This is a country that will always seduce you and will always disappoint you, if you let it. I don’t let it any more, I just rant.

    “banana republic” comes to mind? all that is missing is the famous “panama hats”. It is always funny when you see monkeys wearing suits!

    30 ministers to govern a village! And no expectation of good governance, what a shame!

    There is many things that could be said about this governement…unity or not? quality of the chosen ministers ect.. but noone did…The comment I probably read the most about this governement all over the blogopsphere is “why 30 ministers for such a tiny country?”, and am sure all who wrote that sentence fell proud of themselves thinking they were creative, “think out of the box”, people…

    I never knew before that the ministers number had to be proportional to the number of people(their might a point ofr the MP’s not the minsters)…especially given the fact that the lebanese are not the most united and uniform people I have ever seen being for their religious, political or cultural allegiance….
