The Greens and Democrats - the untold story : Comments

By Malcolm King, published 16/8/2007

It is time for the media to ask The Greens some hard questions - the type you’d put to a party that may hold the balance of power in the Senate.

Democrats and Greens together?

Bit like funny maths.

(0 + 0) = -1

Not logical or desireable.

GREENS and DEMOCRATS support TERRORISM ?

yes..its just a question. Unfortunately, when the rest of us cry out against 'radicalism' and when the police arrest people on charges of terrorism... what happens ?

Greg Barns starts defending them in court.
Greg Barns begins writing articles in OLO etc about 'Avoiding racism and discrimination against Muslims'

I imagine that even if the perpetrators of THESE outrages were arrested, Barns, Starry and gang would be defending them on the slightest 'technicality' and accusing all the rest of us of being 'racists' etc.

If Fellow Human was ever confronted by anyone like those threateners reported in this video, and told he is an 'apostate' or.. 'bad muslim' or to 'shutup'...the first person to stand between him and they, would be me! and if push came to shove, I would unleash everything that I have at my disposal on such people in his defense.

So.. BEWARE of Greens and Democrats, beware of where they really stand, 'watch'.. who they defend, 'see' who's interests they promote.

Greens and Democrats are DANGEROUS for the very reasons found in that little vid.. they simply don't "get" where 'tolerance' of radical views will lead.
....and it will lead.. to INTIMIDATION of moderates by RADICALS.

Which radicals ?

THESE ones.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKUoxbR9mwA&mode=related&search=

Note the direct association between the following events in the mind/mouth of this radical moron

1/ Jews of Khaiber (over 1400 yrs ago)
2/ Theo Van Gogh (recently in our time)
3/ Invade Denmark, kill the danes take their wives.

Notice how he echo's surah 9:29 "May Allah destroy them" and then he relates this sentiment to "We will invade Denmark and take your wives as war booty"

Honestly, if this kind of thing happened on the streets of Melbourne, I would hope the riot squad jumped into them with battons blazing with absolutely no mercy whatsover.

Yet..if they were arrested, you KNOW who would be defending them....right ? "Greens and Democrats" Well..that's my educated and experienced opinion anyway.

C'mon BOAZ_David, we all know the real supporters of terrorism are the retired Liberal/National Party hacks at the Autralian Wheat Board: $290million paid to Saddam Hussein, right up to the start of the latest invasion of Iraq.

How many Liberal Party hacks went to jail for this treasonous support for our supposed enemy?

Zero.

At least when Prescott Bush (GWBs grandfather) funded Hitler he lost his bank for doing so http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prescott_Bush, but the Plutocracy is much more powerful these days.

The problem is the system that produces such a ridiculous "balance of power" situation. If each major party were to control 49% of the vote, and the Monster Raving Loony Party controlled 2%, laws would be passed only at the whim of the Monster Raving Loony Party. How dumb is that?

And Boaz... yet another of your "it is on YouTube, therefore it must be significant" contributions.

Did you notice anything else about the video while you were listening to the semi-moronic narrative - the intellectual content of which was on a par with those university students camped outside the US Embassy in London all those years ago chanting "Ho! Ho! Ho Chi Minh!"

Did you notice the tight camera angles? How many people do you think were actually involved in this demonstration?

Did you notice the way the police politely ignored the minor commotion behind them? The way the buses were still running?

All this, with the video entitled "England - Islam Victory in Europe". If that is "victory" - a few disaffected religious fruitloops shouting slogans - then we have absolutely nothing to be concerned about, do we?

Such a fuss over so little.

Pericles misses a vital reality of our parliament which is that even when the Democrats held the balance of power, most legislation passed through the Senate, either through reasonable negotiation, resulting in better laws, or because the Coalition and Labor voted together.

This happened far more often than most people thought, and it is a common misconception that opposition parties necessarily vote against the government in the Senate. It was only when either of these parties decided to oppose the legislation that the Democrats (sometimes with other independents) had any influence.
