It is not until March we go to the polls.
Yet the election is over.
OH a great campaign will be run, many who defame the ALP just by their presents will go, but the result is known.
Fattening the pig on election day, fine commitments and promises, even I will be impressed, maybe even hopeful.
Party leaders will highlight, with some truth , a biased print media.
Fear of conservative job cuts will be thrown ,and that fear is already there.
Yet no chance not any exists, that the ALP can win.
30% that figure is the high end of the scale, but thats is about how much less other states can pay for their power.
Remember the great NSW state conference that overruled the party's rank and file on power sell off?
It will be sold now, but understand my readers, I do, this awful mob increased electricity prices without need to make public pay for private Enterprise to want to buy it.
Here and now you see a party recruiting votes for another by its actions ALP gathers voters for greens

Belly...it's simple really.

In contrast to the sentiments of the US declaration of independance which says:

//And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.//

They have instead.... festooned themselves with greed, indulged themselves with abominable immorality, surrounded themselves with cronies, turned their noses up against the Almighty, ignored the right and celebrated the wrong, they have called 'evil' good and 'good' evil.

as such..they will be consigned to the political graveyard brought about by that divine providence, and as Thomas Jefferson said:

"God who gave us life gave us liberty. And can the liberties of a nation be thought secure when we have removed their only firm basis, a conviction in the minds of the people that these liberties are of the Gift of God? That they are not to be violated but with His wrath? Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just; that His justice cannot sleep forever; That a revolution of the wheel of fortune, a change of situation, is among possible events; that it may become probable by Supernatural influence! The Almighty has no attribute which can take side with us in that event."

Therein lies the heart of the Labour Party and it's problems.
I assure you, the same will apply to the Liberals if they act in the same manner.

It is not about America Boazy but welcome back.
It is not about Christ or any God but again welcome back.
579 I had hoped we, some of us, could contribute to a talk on politics.
Within Labors impending wreck we can, if we look see some truths about every political party.
Labor more than most rides on the efforts and donations of its followers.
Those who get the hand in to Parliament often forget instantly why they got that hand.
No party, not one,can offer its supporters every thing they wish for.
No party stays in power if it governs only for those who voted for it.
Labor has failed to open its branches ,so have conservatives, Labors branches are owned and controlled by the few, uninviting to those who think other than the ownership.
People from every walk of life get in to the house on ALP tickets, few have ever been broke or hungry even less know our party's history.
If you come in to conflict with NSW public servants who run and ruin government departments, you need not go to the minister.
His/Her very best effort is to hand the concerns,,,,, back to the department you complain about,,,they in turn hand it to? the very person you are complaining about!
5 years to get PPE 3 of those after a very close call that could have blinded some one, private Enterprise would fix it in an hour,, then say thanks for bringing it to our attention.
Far too many, not all, not most but not far from it ALP NSW leaders and faction leaders forgot long ago the rank and file are the back bone not the floor rug of our party.

As I said no one can please every one, but Neville Wrann, a man I found faults with, gave NSW Darling Harbor.
How many remember the rubbish heaped on him for that.
And how many now stand in aware at its conversion, and life as a great part of that City.
Bob Carr, meany will loath him for what I want to praise him for, this states national parks.
Maybe this good intelligent leader wearied of trying to control his dysfunctional team but Labor died on his leaving.
A former minister for roads was rolled, the Italian stallion got the job.
Was so out of his depth it is a wounder he did not drown.
Along came that left wing dream leader who gave it a red hot go and got totally burnt.
Nice Lady our leader nice and liked but even I am unsure if its her words or Obed's she speaks, or maybe its the other bloke, gee leave soon fellas please soon?
Can we for a short time look at a pensioners life in this state? if you use power to stay cool or warm you just do not eat well.
That is an achievement for a LABOR party not to be proud of isn't it?

Let's see, over the time this mob have been running NSW;

-They have flogged off- or attempted to flog off- virtually every public asset to a dodgy private company (including Macquarie Bank), with members mysteriously joining these same groups after politics.
This has included demolishing schools and mental hospitals to sell the real-estate- despite every sale strangely ending up in the asset becoming far less serviceable, more expensive, or dissolving entirely.

-Personally intervened to ensure private property developers would be able to streamline their projects without having to comply to council, public or court obligations (barrangaroo).

-Butchered infrastructure in many places to force the use of private tollways (Lane Cove Road)

-Been the mob responsible for the APEC and WYD police powers

My question is how could such a clearly HARD-RIGHT-wing, neocon party possibly keep getting re-elected?
My guess is too many NSW voters still think NSW Labor is a 'center-left' party that gives a toss about 'workers'- and have not paid one single bit of attention to what the NSW party actually DOES.

I ask, how could ANY party- Liberals, Greens, Democrats, possibly be any worse than this?
