Prime Minister Dotcom?

[oldrider]

actually out of a job, as Key is going to find out this year.

Are you not prepared for disappointment then? ... Still time to get some practice in!

[Laava]

I agree with Oldrider, for Key to be not voted in would suggest there is someone who can do a better job of running the country.
Devil you know and all that.

[Akzle]

oh dear.


another KB party thread.

I used to do the semi sarcastic "USA USA USA" chant. I fear the NZ circus is on the move..... The guy likes publicity anyway

Fuck the fat foreign fucking fucker, he can fuck right off back to fucking Germany...

[scumdog]

He could form his own island..

He'd better not go near Farewell Spit - the Greenpeace types will put him out to sea...

[scumdog]

HAHA! A KB party! That would be hilarious!
"Are you looking for a soup of indescision? Endless circular arguments based on anything but facts? Vote KB!"
Who would be our frontman, I am warming to the idea!

Would we have a special wave???

No; there are plenty that could do a better job. All it means is idiots liked his smile better than the Labour leaders, nothing more.

[mashman]

wow. they were laxx when you got through eh..

heh... given what's already here, they must have thought that I'd up the class of the joint.

Wasn't even that ... our elections are like a lucky dip or lotto!

We can't even identify the government at the conclusion of the elections!

The election result simply gives the politicians permission to sort out a government "among themselves" FFS ... that's incredible IMHO.

[ellipsis]

... that's incredible IMHO.

..thats the sum of it...not incredible...the stark truth...

A. Really? Name one.
B. you really think he got voted in for his smile?

[avgas]

Have to agree in principal but not too sure about the "innocent" word being appropriate ... where there's smoke ($$$$$) etc!

As you say if they (FBI) had a case he (KDC) would be gone by lunch time!

To balance this out. When was Mr Key arrested for insider trading?
Did he have KiwiRail stock? Was he involved in KiwiRail development? Did he sell his KiwiRail stock for a profit?

I won't even get into the debarcle that is polly's and government contracts. That shit gets me really angry.

While the Kraut is dodgy as fuck, I just think the rules were stronger there. Over here we wait until there is a Ponzi Scheme.........then charge when and ONLY charge when the "Old man accounting" excuse doesn't fly anymore (SCF, Bradley, Ross) . If your a polly - chances are you hire some pretty good accountants, whom know their tax havens well.
Perhaps KDC could learn that lesson when he joins the old boys club?

As you said - where there is smoke. KDC will just be another stoner in a beehive. That factory knows its carbon footprint. How can you build a Bridge(corp) and get over what goes on in NZ so easily saying that the house is clean and KDC is dirty?

No no no. Key is just a beneficiary, he has no oversight of his invested monies.
Similarly, his ridiculous pay packet is decided by an independent authority, he has no control over that...

Wrong - many people don't vote because they think someone else can do the job better ..

But yes, I do not believe that the election will change the Government. Teflon John would have to be caught screwing Len Brown to lose ...

[Laava]

Wrong - many people don't vote because they think someone else can do the job better .. ...

So you would have to say they got what they asked for.
If you genuinely thought someone else could do a better job then you would vote for the someone else right? Or were you only talking about retarded people?

Don,t get me wrong, I am not saying Key is the best leader we could have.
But the alternatives are not better IMO.
