Yes, apparently he's annoyed and angered but not exactly agitated or exasperated. Everyone knows that he is rather meek in his approaches but I believe he took the opportunity to register or put across his displeasure on gutter politics of ministers as well as ill and ugly mainstream prostitutes playing along as mouthpiece. Even at the victory press conference there are people still trying to pry further into the squirrel incident, a freudian slip and hell is going to break loose again.

Aggression (fire in the belly) must be focussed and channelled at your adversary. This was what LTK achieved at the press conference. The conference was the ideal forum, with the appropriate direct and indirect audience, to focus that aggression. Consider the beauty of it - he was attacking the very people interviewing him, and they could not go anywhere!

If he had not picked the moment correctly but had lashed out indiscriminately, the energy would have been diffused and wasted. And he might have come across as the character played by John Cleese in the following clip:

Just reading beyond between the lines. The hidden message is : "I have pang chance and you are still kanna sai. Stop using such lousy tactics or you will get nowhere."

Does not help to boycott the MSM. We need to know what they are putting whether we like it or not. The MSM preaches to the converted anyway. They don't serve their masters too well either. Even a fair report from them will now be treated with suspicion.

.. This is called strategy and even at times I dun like what he is doing, I have to give him the due respect that his strategy had beared fruit so far.[/QUOTE]
this is what meng seng can't swallow, he thinks he is a better strategist than low - both in reading situations and how to lead and grow a party.

I salute u for conceding u may not like but still give him the due respect - simply becos u, like Deng, derive truth from facts... i.e. low's way has produced concrete results..

So many others instead of giving due credit, harp on inconsequentials: low not humble enough, low belittle the other oppositionists, low could have done more, low should have smell yawgate a mile away, low poor judge, low should have appointed eric tan as ncmp ... Yada yada

I likewise remind myself constantly to derive truth from facts
