It is important that he is proud of everyone and that he is the youngest. It was tiring to listen to Bečić's exit speech in the assembly. It seemed that his heart was breaking, but that he was determined to hold on heroically. With the ease of a nursery rhyme, Bečić moves from big words to the smallest pranks. No trace of discomfort.
As a flushed youth, with cheerful faces and clean smiles, the recent first man of the parliament held a letter in his honor. It's all normal here. I remember the writer who asserted seventeen times in the text on two newspaper pages that he who writes it is an honorable man. So how can you not believe him? Scammers posing as a whip of scammers? It's a con man squared.
When I heard that "youngest", something stung my ears, an old memory came up. The youngest brought us here, one could say. Because the fact that someone is the youngest in something can only be a bizarre fact, and is not an a priori value.
Recall, Milos apologists once insisted on this and were proud that Đukanović, at the very beginning of his career, was the youngest prime minister in Europe. And it's still there... Sometimes, as we've seen, we have to suffer the youngest until old age. Theirs and ours.
In the era of the DPS, it was hard to watch the "debutants" on the Montenegrin side, people were ready to do anything just to legitimize some kind of biographical fraud, some kind of afterloading. Well, you remember that they also explained to us about Milo, that he was a Montenegrin from the beginning, "but then it was not possible". And everyone calm, everyone satisfied. Well, those who wait when they can, they are the fundamental problem of Montenegro and the reason we still don't have a society. They are good for everything - both Europe and freedom and standards - but, when possible. Read - never.
Now it is equally hard to "fight for the first time" on an anti-Depees basis. Well, you can hear anything.
One MP claims that she has been fighting against the DPS for thirty years. Kudos to you, but the cursed memory immediately begins to roam the consciousness: didn't that MP come on the scene with the division of the DPS in 1997. Then why does it say - thirty years. First of all - twenty-five years is not a little, but why fail the truth test because of the psychological effect of those added five years. It doesn't matter that it's not correct, but does the round “thirty” sound better? Or do today's Montenegrin politicians believe that the citizens have become fools without a gram of memory? First it will be…
Ok, there is a mental passion for exaggeration, it is believed that the Balkans are the absolute kings of hyperbole. It describes Pekić u Letters from abroad how a countryman, "our man", stopped by the London newsroom where he worked. He looked out the window and was amazed by the sight of the square over which the pigeons were flying, he said excitedly - Look, a thousand pigeons... An English friend who happened to be there got up to see the scene and stood by the window. When the Yugoslav left, he asked Pekić - Why did he say a thousand when there were twenty-three? Of course, it is unlikely that there was any way for the great writer, no matter how masterful he was with words, to explain to him the local passion for exaggeration.
However, inaccuracies from politicians' mouths are not a naive thing. At least in public statements. Because we have to believe in one of two possibilities. First, that the politician does not know what he is talking about. No wonder, a long stay in the labyrinths of Montenegrin politics can turn a man into a wreck, destroy him, on several grounds. Or, another possibility: knowingly misleading. So - he thinks it's okay to deceive. Whatever it is, it's not good.
And one recommendation: listen to Bečić's exit speech with the sounds of any song for the youngest choir Kolibri. You don't even have to imagine his party colleagues as happy children in a choir, but that would be fun too. With those sounds, "the proudest and the youngest" seems irresistible, like Dragan Lakovic on the best of days.
