Totally agree. They were BOTH wrong and BOTH had their motives and agendas. And I’m sure Lisa Raye had her motives for staying with such a man and not leaving the minute she found out about his outside kids, having babies with every other woman, constant and open womanizing, rampant corruption, and doesn’t the list go on and on and to cap it off a rape case. He didn’t seem to be worried or concerned she would ditch him. I still wonder why he felt so free to really act the fool and be such an embarassment? And why got to where he dumped her and even then she seemed to want to get back in there. She really didn’t seem eager to leave this piece of work..was it him or the life she was fighting to stay attached to? It was a grand lifestyle the two of them where living up in there thanks to his corruption and shady dealings. Better than she had even in Hollywood at her medium level of fame. Guess she really was willing to put up with whatever to be in that Head of State residence with that life. And yes he did use her to promote himself and his agendas. But I think she was okay with it just along as it was contributing to increasing and affording her the grand lifestyle she was getting out of it. He seems to have let power go right to his head and he thought he could quite literally do and get away with anything under the sun. Lisa Raye even though she only lived on the island for what? two years? and only ever moved there to be his wife was saying she planned on staying there as it is her home. Didn’t she live in the States for the whole of her 40 years of life prior to that? She was still referring to herself as first lady after they were split and she was off the island. Sounds like she had some difficulty letting it go so easy. The importance and status. She clearly has advantages of being a big fish in a small pond over there and being treated much better than she could dream of being treated back in Hollywood where she had several times drifted into obscurity and had only ever peaked at C or D-list level. Her career had picked up a bit but she wasn’t Halle Berry at the time she left to get married let’s face it. She wasn’t anywhere near A-list and wasn’t ever going to get there. But on that island I’m sure she was treated as near royalty.

However I don’t care if she burst into the former residence to confront him. She would probably do that if she felt wronged, which clearly she seemed to. No man should hit a woman. Walk away. But they both sound like such tremendously tacky individuals. Getting in marital brawls in front of cabinet ministers. Is that how y’all do it out in the Carribean? The people you call your Premier and First Lady acting like an episode of the Jerry Springer show in public. Ridiculous. It’s like a joke. But there it was HIM who is definately in the wrong. Hitting a woman? No man regardless of who he is should ever be doing that. Very immature. And just wrong plain and simple.

Is it just me or does the fact he is not above getting violent, physically assaulting a woman and beating her lend to his regard towards women? Would he be above sexually assaulting a woman if that basic lack of respect for women seems to be in place? Is it impossible?

When it comes to keeping it real, it is so nice to know ur not alone!

We as humans, have to understand that no one is perfect, and or job is to try
to be as right as possible in the mist of balanceing all, (mental, emotion,
physical, social, spiritual, and yes, financial.)

Princess Lisa, I’m proud of you for I know that you can hang in there, only if you
are one to keep it real, and you do! I look forward to watching you dust off your
shoulders, and continue to be a true strong woman! People like that are what
our elders call simple minded. God put us here for
he whom has an ear to hear and an eye to see what is true.
Most are blinded by thier hearts and own guiltiness.
Why judge in the first place? Who are we? Quit PLayin! Life is full of shizzle!
We surprise ourselves and yes for sure other do too!
The real problem in this world is its great lack of respect for each other and
more so women! Only the weak prey on what they consider the weak!
Keep your head up and represent you for us! who needs haters?
F -orget HATERS AND PERPETRATERS! DO YOU GIRL! GOD BLESS!

Men are supposed to be reasoning beings not as emotionally driven as females and the ones driven solely by emotion are the ones we call bitches just like you! No reasoning!

Just BITCHY BITCHY BITCHY BITCH YOU ARE!
