Now lets interview Saddam Hussein on George Bush
August 28th, 2004 at 10:17 am by David FarrarI am amazed that NZPA regards as news worthy the opinions of Winston Peters on Don Brash.
Are they now going to publish the views of Rodney Hide on how Helen Clark is going to be rolled by Phil Goff? Or the views of Saddam Hussein on how he wants Colin Powell instead of Geroge Bush to be nominated by the Republicans?
I mean hello they are political enemies. Brash has been so sucessful he has doubled National’s poll ratings, at the expense of NZ First which has halved. National now gets eight times as much support in polls as NZ First, and at the last election they only got twice as much.
In fact you know when a leader really is in trouble – when his opponents stop attacking him or her, as they no longer see you as a threat.
No tag for this post.

David, David, David. The late Mike King was asked by Kim Hill on her late nite show, was there any truth in Dons speech at Orewa, his reply: No, there was no truth, only innuendo, there was no substance to what he was talking about, it was for polls only. Now this is a high profile, highly respected pakeha (caucasion) speaking, not a radical maori.
The Gaurdian newspaper in the UK had an article on what is currently happening in New Zealand, when a political party is down low in the polls, to get higher it plays the race card. Now this is a British newspaper (not Mana Magazine)who have a huge following around the world, dont believe me ?, then go to http://www.gaurdian.co.uk/archives , type in Don Brash, there are a couple of articles, one called Beyond the Foreshore and Micheal King which would make interesting reading.
Now, all Don has done is play the race card, no policies, this is the man when he was treasurer said NZers should not own there own houses, this is the man who remarked about Helen Clark’s aversion to the sanctimony of marriage, which is hypocritical when he is on his second marriage after an adulterous affair, this is the man who allowed a National Party nation wide ad which told fibs, like, Ordinary NZers do not have access to the Maori Landcourt, this was shown to be an untruth, not an innuendo, when it was explained by a Maori Landcourt Judge who says that every NZer since 1876 have the right to judicial procedure in the Maori Landcourt which also has been used by many Caucasion (pakeha) since that time, court records will verify this information. This is also the man who penned the phrase whilst talking with the Americans “Gone before lunchtime”, thats our nuclear policy. He has now backtracked because a Government offical made that statement known. This is the man who will now not allow Government officials, at his meetings with foregin diplomats, this is qute scary considering all the untruths and the “Gone Before Lunchtime” Quip, what else of ours will be gone b4 lunchtime that we treasure. As I said previously where are their policies, where is there direction to take us into the future, do you vote him in because you dislike the colour of my skin, if you do, then you need to cut two holes in the white sheet you are wearing so you can see. We know he had an adulterous affair with a lady who was his secretary.let us hope he is not having an adulterous affair with our thoughts and votes.
With people of his ilk and their parties thinking, one could be forgiven for thinking that Aotearoa does not mean “Land of the Long White Cloud”, but more like “Land of the wrong white crowd” Lets hope not.
Our father whom art in Heaven………..

Robert – the Guardian story was a traversty of journalism. The author did not even have the courage to reply to my e-mail at http://www.kiwiblog.co.nz/archives/006121.html.
Also Brash was never Treasurer. Your inability to get basic facts right does not help credibility.
And frankly any credibility you may have had (which was low) disappears when you start comparing to the KKK.
In fact your entire post can best be summarised as “Waaaw Mummy I don’t like that nasty Don Brash”.

Robert -
1) I have Michael King’s interview on tape, and thank God he was capable of delivering a more nuanced and thoughtful response than your misleading paraphrase.
2) If you want to play the racist card, someone should tell Winston that the nasty yellow peril can read and work Google. If he wants to pontificate about talking this country down perhaps he can stop scaring off foreign investment and immigrants with his racist swill.
3) Oh, and let’s look at Winston’s idea of “doing the hard yards” in Parliament. Slander someone – always under parliamentary privilege, naturally. Blame nasty immigrants for everything wrong in this country. Conveniently forget own voting record. Kiss up to Clark with personal attacks on Opposition members that sound like a fifth rate Mike King routine.
4) And Winnie might spend so much time in the House because a) he’s a total media slut, and/or b) with the debatable exception of Ron Mark & Peter Brown, the rest of his caucus are so stupid they can’t draw breath without looking like turds. (Example: I’m not a supporter of the Civil Union Bill but Bill Gudgeon’s contribution had his colleagues visibly cringing.)

Mr Hughes has so much foam coming from his mouth and steam coming from his ears that he has forgotten the difference between sanctimony and sanctity, can’t tell the difference between a throwaway one liner and something written and BTW its Our Father “who” art in heaven. To call him an idiot is to insult imbeciles.

Craig, who yanked your chain? I don’t really know where your coming from objecting to Robert’s post with a full-out attack on NZ First. Just what exactly do you have against the party?
As for saying that most NZ First MP’s are stupid? What proof do you have of this?
I don’t think Jones and Donnelly are regarded as stupid by anyone (maybe Donnelly is an idiot savant but Jones is highly intelligent). Peter Brown and Ron Mark are excellent performers in the House. Doug Woolerton is a cagey character that is highly respected in farming circles. Some Maori MP’s in NZ First take a low profile and conservative stance but this is highly superior to the thuggish and destructive behaviour of the Tight Five that nearly ruined the party.
