Actually, the face has to have been elongated. In reality, its much more squat and Slav like.

RB, I thought the same thing. It’s somewhat more horsey than she looks most of the time and they are someone else’s teeth..

In light of last Monday’s PREFU I suggest:
This one’s about being bust
Vote:October 13th, 2008 at 12:50 pm
WTF ever makes you feel good!
The beauty about meaningless statements like in that poster, is that anyone can make a John Key one with exactly the same punchline, and it’s no more or less effective…
Petty stuff like this does however have the effect of making you look less like a serious political analysis site, and more like just a little b*tch – please yourself

If someone can stand photoshopping huge fake breasts onto Helen, I think we might have ‘It’s all about bust’.

Murray, funnily enough, I was asking myself the same question? I think it is the leading soap opera actress in the sisterhood liarbour fraudulent election show. Nice boy John verse the Mad Witch! Why vote?

It does suprise me that with all the photoshopping going on, no one has actually put her real face on their ‘shopped’ pics.
I know….they can’t stand looking at the real image while they ‘shop’ it….but really, a good dose of reality would say more than any play on words.
It’s all about TRUST………yet I don’t trust my face enough to put it on my posters?
That is how shallow Clark thinks her supporters are!

Like Saddam, Klarkzilla has a small army of supermegafugglys who stand in for her when there’s a chance that Cam Slater might come running up with a video camera or that D4J might try and assassinate her. The real Klark hasn’t been to Christchurch since 1999.

To whit – more incisive political commentary in a similar vein, complete with DIY illustrations:

Nope no authorisation statement at all…..
The website is an abomination.
Their ad agency should be fired. Terrible, simply terrible.

Cops took away me guns so all I can hope for is a direct hit in the head with a purple flower bomb? Tony Blair loved being hit.

oh no actually it was just that the shit site takes 5 minutes to load – and the authorisation loads last.
Geez gotta love Helen’s hair do on ‘Labour TV’ cringable.

Would you mind not posting these adverts that include this ugly face. It makes me want to vomit; and thats even with the air-brushed version.

I bet it does. I’m just not sure it has the same effect as the wrinkled and bearded face nestling between her thighs.

Speaking of authorisation statements, I have noticed that Labour in Dunedin are handing out red balloons at their events.
The balloons are simply plain red, with no logo, no authorisation statement, nothing.
BUT – are they not still election advertisements? They are after all “encouraging or persuading voters to vote, or not to vote, for 1 or more specified parties”.
In and of themselves they would be meaningless, but the very fact that they are organised and distributed by the Labour Party at electioneering events and are branded in Labour Party red must make them intended to be advertisements. Otherwise, why don’t they simply hand out a selection of colours?

mike12 – i suspect a gulag trip for you if you do that. i’d suggest yelling out ‘hey helen’. the fake ones never turn around until you’ve yelled it more than once and they’ve been prodded by the DPS

this is the first time i have been to this site and to be quite honest im a little shocked,ive gone though about 50 posts and not one was informative,i can tell that all of the opinions have come directly from mainstream media left or right
Vote:im not saying your stupid or i am smarter, in fact in most cases i will not be smarter one,and i dont want to come off as some know it all.i too a few years ago read the paper and watched the news thinking they were just telling it like it is
i know that there will be many of you that will be sitting there saying “great another nutter”but i will tell you this if any of you want to truly know whats going on you will have to stop reading the paper and turn off the telly and head to a few alternative sites on the net while you still can,internet censorship is coming and you can bet your ass the government will shut them down as soon as they have changed the law to suit.these sites really hurt the governments propaganda agenda and are getting massif as people wake up to this,something that will shock you as it did me when you step away and see it for what it is,what i have learned about this election,there is no left wing right wing both parties are owned by the same people its only there to fool the public in to thinking there in control,i believe john keys has been picked to destroy NZ,lets not forget that john has already worked for the very same people that own the mainstream media and are responsible for the worlds credit crisis so they can steal or wealth by bailing them out with our tax dollars,the world is in debt to its self its a joke, mainstream keeps the real facts far away from the public,john key is guilty of insider trading and a formal complaint has been laid to the serious fraud office this happened on the 3rd oct 2008,big news dont you think and he is guilty http://uncensoredmagazine.co.nz/news/
ill give you a couple more sites that tell it like it really is http://dotconnectoruk.blogspot.com/ http://whatreallyhappened.com/
im am not asking you to believe me just please check it out for your self what you have been lead to believe is bullshit
i have no agendas but the truth and to pass it on to others so they can see what i see
another good site is infowars.com only one of these sites is from NZ but this is happening world wide so there are many lesson to be learnt WARNING the truth will change the way you see the world,

Dear me it must be Monday morning. That’s got me shirking work (don’t worry, I’m self-employed) and musing on where the party leaders would go to get their doubles. I have no idea where Clark would go. A rest home reserved for the particularly demented? Someone who thinks they’re Napoleon wouldn’t find it much of a stretch to act as though they believed they were Ruler for Life. As for the others:
- John Key: a waxwork museum, obviously. Though the fact it didn’t look like a deer in the headlights every time a journalist asked a simple question might give it away, and the tendency to actually melt under the TV lights as opposed to just giving the impression of doing so would also count against it.
- Winston Peters: the Council Dog Pound (“Rabid Rottweilers with Distemper” section).
- Jim Anderton: poached from a casting call for “Night of the Living Dead XXIII”.
- Russel Norman: Pinch Zebedee from “The Magic Roundabout”. Okay he’d need to lose the moustache (Zebedee, not Norman) but the silly grin and slightly unhinged look works.
Alternatives? Additions?…

Yes, they are an encouragement to vote Labour. This is why Labour plans (after the election) to ban the colour blue.

that photo’s not air-brushed. It’s photoshopped, poorly.
Zoom in on it and you can see all the nasty digital artefacts.
That’s not her mouth at all, let alone her teeth. Most of her chin is also reconstructed, as are her cheekbones, and under her eyes. And her nose.
In fact, there’s not much that’s actually her in there.

The billboard is correct in that Labour will do absolutely anything to stay in power. Including a coalition agreement with ACT.
I’m sure Rodney and Roger would drive a hard bargain.
