“it relies on the presupposition that all of the things you listed are lies”

Idiotic assertion. Go away. You’re a moron. BTW I never speed. I merely rely on the logic that if everything is under control, then I’m driving too slow.

No it’s not the question at all and don’t call me a twerp. What are you? 85 years old?

For your statement “Government agencies be free to lie” to be sound it relies on the presupposition that all of the things you listed are lies, which I elaborated on.

“So just to clarify here RedBaiter, you believe:”

Believe? What do you think this is? A matter of religion?

Should government agencies be free to lie if they claim that the ideas they are promoting are in the public good?

?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

That is the fucken question you twerp. What’s your answer??

RB: “Government agencies quite often lie or misrepresent stats in pursuit of what they perceive as “public good” ideals. Global warming is only the tip of the iceberg. (to coin a phrase) Passive smoking. Exhaust gas. Drink driving. Speeding. OSH. Air pollution. All liars and lies. They even admit it. The end justifies the means they say.”

So just to clarify here RedBaiter, you believe:
a) passive smoking isn’t bad for you
b) exhaust gases dont’ pollute the atmosphere
c) drinking alcohol doesn’t impair your driving ability;
d) neither does speeding
e) (I’m unclear what the lies are around OSH…its existence?)
f) the air isn’t polluted…at all?

Poor Gore !!. I know DPF has spent one night in Gore, that terrible election night of 2002.Don’t punish us for that. See the National voting figures for Gore- 4-1 for National.
Gore has had its oddball, like one idiot lady as mayor. There are a few individuals who live on raw swede but probably we are behind the eightball when it comes to p labs, drugs and violence.
I like to think that we in Gore are free of some of the idiocy of Wellington and Auckland, where the biggest desire seems to be one of the “pretty” people sitting around the cafes and wine bars naval gazing about their adventures on waters of the Waitemata or struggling to stay alive in some of their ethnic ghettoes..
I am a district councillor in Gore, lived here all my life but have been to 50 different countries. I love my town, I love learning about the rest of the world but equally I am looking forward to go home to Gore.
I am not a Goron,in bred or a total nana.
Just a reminder, so much of the nations wealth comes within one hundred kms of Gore.
Come to Gore- we have one of the largest Rita Angus and Ralph Hotere collections in New Zealand,a lively arts scene and we don’t all sing songs about a dog with a sore stomach.

Gore’s my home town so back off
Fact is there is little to do now that the council removed the centre parks – ahh the endless fun of playing “watcha gunna do when they come for you” on the car stereo every time the feds show up, over and over….

“Took me a while Ryan, but I get it now”

Applause..!!!

Actually funny thing is, ol redneck Ryan’s quite right without even knowing it. Government agencies quite often lie or misrepresent stats in pursuit of what they perceive as “public good” ideals. Global warming is only the tip of the iceberg. (to coin a phrase) Passive smoking. Exhaust gas. Drink driving. Speeding. OSH. Air pollution. All liars and lies. They even admit it. The end justifies the means they say.

Should have started off with a couple of drinks Llew, it improves blooging.

We have scientific evidence from a panel of science talking guys.

Can you clarify what that means Ryan?

Driving accidents are caused by a great number of complex factors, but it's become trendy among leftists and their mainstream-media sheep to claim that alcohol consumption is directly related to driving accidents. But those claims are based on BAD SCIENCE. Leftists will happily parrot the claims of biased scientists in order to demonise alcohol, which serves their secret agenda of undermining business - like the alcohol industry. Hell, 20 years ago, "scientists" were all worried about alcohol improving driving!

There’s no evidence of manmade drink-driving accidents.

They couldn’t have, for if they had, they’d all have been killed. I know this, because Labour Party ‘public good’ advertising tells me so.

It cracks me up how people just believe whatever the Labour Party tells them about drinking and driving. There’s no evidence of manmade drink-driving accidents. But that little truth is a bit “inconvenient” for lefties and MSM drones.
