So who the f**k am I supposed to vote for then?

1. Libertarians don't provide "rational critique"

Well it's becoming obvious that you wouldn't know rational if it secretly taped you and played it on TV3.

We are even blessed enough in little Ol' Kiwibiker to have a (small) clique of rabid fascists pushing the cause.

The word ‘Fascism’ is almost entirely meaningless. In conversation, of course, it is used even more wildly than in print. I have heard it applied to farmers, shopkeepers, Social Credit, corporal punishment, fox-hunting, bull-fighting, the 1922 Committee, the 1941 Committee, Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuality, Priestley's broadcasts, Youth Hostels, astrology, women, dogs and I do not know what else... almost any English person would accept ‘bully’ as a synonym for ‘Fascist’.

By that standard, the biggest fascists in NZ politics are the union movement.

Weak response to points 1, 2 and 3 - Try again.

P.S Orwell was a fascist...and like you he was defensive about it.

Me? proud Socialist

Good for you. It is however really sad that you've given up on mankind.

[Manxman]

so next week there is going to be countless boring threads about who should have won? and maybe a poll on why?

I don't care, so long as you keep posting - esp. using avatars like that.

[Manxman]

Guys, it's a done deal. National will form a new Government so lets stop all the quibbling okay? Sorry lefties, but it's time to get off your fat lazy arses and get a real job.
Thank you.

Amen to that.

Sorry? Since when did right-wingers care about people?

Speak for yourself - your own political views reflect your own cynicism and the distain you obviously have for your fellow man.

Why do you even try to engage in discussion with me? You are scum - in your previous posts you've revealed youself as such.

PS, what about flip-flops? Domain of the National Party?? I don't think so. Not many people noticed that, two weeks ago, Helen Clark stated that the Maori seats were not to be entrenched (ie actually agreeing with National).

Suddenly, with one week of the campaign left, and obviously slow to realise the politically suicidal gaff she had made (but fortunately few media had picked up on, cos they were focussing on Key saying exactly the same) she changes her mind completely. U turn. 180 degrees...and states that they should be.

Yes, but at least she flip-flopped before the election. It's the parties that said they'd flip before the election but flopped afterwards that have done the damage in this country.

I seem to remember the blue team was well ahead in the polls on the day before the elections last time round... National have plenty of time to fuck it up

That'll be pretty much all of them then, eh?

I can tell you're upset. Must be difficult living off welfare for all these years and now you're going to have to get a job.

It's really not that bad once you get into it. Sure, at first you won't like getting out of bed before lunchtime but your body will adjust. Just give it some time. But be warned, once your 3 month trial is up, your boss will be able to fire you for being useless and you won't be able to hide being the Union.

Now run along and be a good boy.

I'm trying to pitch things at your level, and it seems I'm succeeding. How many syllables can you cope with in a word?

1984 isn't an instruction manual you idiot.

Yeah but this time around Clark has shown her true colours. People want (and need) change.

Hang on a minute. Even we can't be both fascists and communists at the same time.

Two faces of the same coin, so you are.
