I think it’s better to say I wish the Watermelons were lower than ACT.
All ACT needs to do to poll above Watermelons is to have Peter Tashkoff as leader and Kevin Campbell as deputy.
*ROTFLMAO*

With the Foreshore and Seabed legislation coming up ACT’s polling will improve. Just listen to David Garrett this morning.
David will be on with Leighton Smith on NewstalkZB at 9:30 today, Monday 13 Sept to discuss the Foreshore and Seabed legislation.
A little off topic but General Discussion is not up for today yet.

Sam – because quaint old relics are good, no point in modernising in the 21st century when we can keep reminiscing about the good old days and good old country.
Besides, it is a constant reminder to our local “celebrities” that their fame will always be inferior – some of them seem to place themselves on a level of importance equal to our ruling politicians, but like our continued political subservience the celebritiness will always be second class at best.

I heard Garrett on talkback today.
The treachery of Key and National is breathtaking.
BTW Did Key pay ANY tax in NZ up until he carpetbagged into parliament?

Kiwibloggers need a mirror blog site that is beyond the censorship of David Patsy Farrar.
Methinks the mischief we foment should be somewhat less happy.
[DPF: 20 demerits. I suggest not insulting the host in future. DIsagree with me on an issue, but keep the insults to your own blog]

Swiftman, instead of trying to do a cuckoo why don’t you try building your own nest? You could chirp as much as you like then, in cloud cuckoo land.

Swiftman, I didn’t hear it but my wife called me to tell me about what David Garrett had said. Looks like Chris Finlayson forgot to put the word FREE in the legislation. Well, after parliament dumped David Garrett’s repeal on the anti smacking law, looks like this parliament will make the Maori Elite much richer. All on the back of the taxpayer. You kiwi’s have to start standing up for yourselves because the politicians are ripping you the taxpayer completely off!
