Is it propaganda or the truth Cuzzie? Anyway, you haven't had a chance to read it yet. Post back afterwards.

Just for a bit of light relief, I see the Green Taliban are up in arms that N Smith is passing a bit of legislation to enable a fraction of the wind-throw native trees on the west coast to be lumbered for fine furniture, jobs for the coast, and about $100m of revenue, instead of letting them rot on the ground. Nick Smith said on the telly that there will still be 95% of the wind throw left to rot and feed all the wormies....
The comment by the Green spokeswoman (I think behind the beard was a woman) was tourists would be upset seeing chainsaws being flung about in our native forests.
FFS - get a life jerks
While the arguments here concern which party is more at fault over the Chinese businessman and his donations to either party, for me the fact that politicians on both sides appear to be happy to welcome wealthy Asian and other people into the country purely on the size of their bank balance and against the advice of immigration officials is the major concern.It is hard enough to make a miilion in NZ but in Asia it must be a lot more difficult. The fact that the busnessman in focus appears to be buying favours from politicians by donating large sums of money to either party and the parties are happy to accept them is not something I can be comfortable with NZ was once considered corruption free compared with the rest of the world. It appears to no longer be so.

It still is compared to a the rest of the world Westerly. This is an asian way of doing business in any country. Not just here.
Belg. Have a whisky or wine or whatever your poison is.You'll let small mined NZ politics (from both sides) kill you. Shouting down at the opposition has not worked for Labour to change peoples opinions and it wont work on here I'm guessing.
""What is most frustrating iceman, and a sad indictment of the NZ voting public, yourself included, is that you all lap up the media reports and planted spin as if it were fact and question nothing. You simply take it all as fact ... much like a teenage, schoolyard gossips. A shame.""
instead of pontificating on a website that deals in trading shares which is generally the realm of nat voters.......
why not get in your PAV (ponsonby assault vehicle) even though your a north shore boy...... and educate some of the tens of thousands of labour voters living in south auckland
they might actually listen to you and believe the words you say on top of your soapbox.
when i hear minto gasbagging in media ...... and reading your pontification on this forum...... I wonder who is more smarter?
at least minto gets his word out to those who agree with him,...... as a majority of folks who frequent this site wont be swayed by your 1000s of left wing comments.
10 plus years you have been spouting left wing anti right, anti america, anti god, and anti many other things........ yet live in the middle of gods owns richest suburbs,
with a supposed top 5% salary and investment strategy..........
im just a simple guy......... but you would be better off spending your time not on this site.......... 1000s of posts....... but going to the south auckland suburbs and educating the folks there about how bad the current government is.
that way..... you would earn respect as you put your foot where your mouth is......(or whatever that saying is...... positive saying)
having said all the above......
I respect you a hell of alot!!...... I know you can out talk me, out think me, and out speculate me......
you a richer than me, and probably have a better life than me........
but you seem to be lost somehow........
and some of the stuff you write....... or write about is truly worrying.
maybe you need to get in car and spend a week driving around to places that you normally wouldnt go to and see what
is happening in this land of ours.
My missus has...... over the 7 years that i have know her and fallen in love with..... ""encouraged" me to take drives around NZ and see NZ from a different point of view.
Which is why I dont vote from my pocket anymore...... (from a different post)
ps....
she earns $15 an hour and has a car in her own name...... thats it
yet she is rich way beyond me in so many way........
and I have a great career and a good size farm in south aucks.
yet it seems you have even more than that and still you come across to many readers as a lost....... or troubled soul.
I respect you belg...... but feel you need a reality check.
I hope you dont take offence...... yet it is a pointed statement at you.
The funny/ wierd/ strange ....... maybe good...... thing..... you have also helped me LOOK at things differently.
cheers
An extract from Team America World Police that could be termed apt:
"We are dicks, were reckless arrogant stupid dicks, and the liberal left are pussys. And the greens are just arseholes. Pussys don’t like dicks because pussys get fcuked by dicks but dicks also fcuk arseholes. Arseholes who just want to siht on everything. Pussys may think they can deal with arseholes their way but the only thing that can fcuk an arsehole is a dick with some balls. The problem with dicks is sometimes they fcuk too much or fcuk when it isn’t appropriate. And it takes a pussy to show him that. But sometimes pussys get so full of ****e they become arseholes themselves because pussys are only an inch and a half away from arseholes. I don’t know much in this crazy crazy world but I do know that if you don’t let us fcuk these arseholes we are going to have our dicks and pussys all covered in ****e."
**** = the word beginning with s that mean poo.
Through your rose tinted glasses EZ, Labour is 100% the truth and National is 100% propaganda. Why then is Labour polling so low and National so high. Are you saying Kiwis are mostly thick, because that's what you are implying. Kiwis are smart and that is the Key, those who are not so sharp at the pointy end ponder their next attack commonly known as propaganda. Who is D.Cs puppet master? The propaganda king himself - Matt McCarten FFS.:eek2:
Remember this: A secret memo on secret trusts I've posted it three times now and no response from any loonies. That's a propaganda king in action EZ, no need for that crap from National, they just stick to the proven - you know - results. Results, that's something Labour only dream about. Keep dreaming - keep dreaming.
