What we have is certainly not what the Ancient Greeks envisaged. I have some hope for Rudd but probably power will corrupt him too.<BR/><BR/>Lang mack, thanks for calling by.

Now all we have as an option is a two party vote. That in itself is unrepresentative of the population and highly unfare.<BR/>This year, for the first time in my voting history I will be barracking(diredctly or by prefference) for neither labor or liberal.<BR/>A once strong labor voter and parliamentary representative, with strong ties and personal affiliations with Mr Garratt I see that there is no longer a thin line. Politics changes people. It silenly takes the balance,harmony and diplomacy from ppls live and replaces it with competition both within and out off the ranks. Direction is slowly eaten away by desire for power and paychecks.<BR/>I toyed with the idea of voting in my friend(environment minister mr Garret) however it was up against my sixth sence, the sickening feeling I get when I watch Mr Rudd speak.<BR/>I never voted for Howard when I thought his body language and eyes told a story other than that of his mouth so how can I do that with "my" party whan I know the same to be true?<BR/>This time around, we will not be spared by either party.<BR/>We should vote radical or not vote at all.....things are amiss I know it.<BR/>Democracy died long ago.Morganahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09501882761517369436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29100128.post-47261697910267400682007-11-21T07:42:00.000+11:002007-11-21T07:42:00.000+11:00I fear that our snake has already swallowed democr...I fear that our snake has already swallowed democracy - and all our freedoms as well.Worried Americanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15025693881754554346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29100128.post-38063716582712157342007-11-21T06:58:00.000+11:002007-11-21T06:58:00.000+11:00And keep in mind, Granny, that the snake is much l...And keep in mind, Granny, that the snake is much less mean-looking than John Howard too!Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798600572745255535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29100128.post-85846145031093941662007-11-21T01:38:00.000+11:002007-11-21T01:38:00.000+11:00I can't do much with your crisis from here but I d...I can't do much with your crisis from here but I do admire that snake.<BR/><BR/>I may link to it - it will fit well underneath that monstrosity WA posted the other day.<BR/><BR/>Good luck - I know how you feel.Grannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17283823157675990935noreply@blogger.com
