Act two:

...With sensitivity hewn to a fine edge by many past years of dumbing down experience of political disappointments to fall back on, I cast my vote for Pauline Hanson, as did many others it seems. But don’t think for one second that my vote was given with any expectation of reward of policies; I have long ago learned that there is but one policy applicable to both parties, the rich get richer and the poor get poorer; the common policy. No, I don’t give a “tinkers damn” about policies or lack of them from the damsel of fish and chip shop fame, she aspires to none other than the raw honesty of electability and a desire to serve the disenfranchised like myself. I just want the simplicity of raw justice metered out! I vote with the burning vindictiveness born from acts of treachery, double cross and lies, to see both “majors” of the mafia dictate bloodied and humiliated, then I rest.

Better an even second-rate Labor Government than a first rate pack of opportunists who look down on most of their constituents as factory fodder for their power base and use social division, racism and personal smear as a political tools.

Even if Hanson somehow crawled across the line, what could she possibly do about any of those things she rants about from the Upper House of a Government monopoly controlled Parliament, except foster even further division and racial hatred?

The academic, bureaucrat, leftist factions will never be able to understand pragmatic thinking. It's not in their scope. All the thinkers can do is to ignore them.
Paline Hanson is not just saying things. She is stating what most of the electorate feel. She is not the one making inflammatory statements. The wharped left is employing experts in the field of distorting facts. Just imagine the mentality of those who condemn someone who wants to save this country from being sent to oblivion by fanaticism & mindless morons. The decent's fight now is against stupidity from within.

If she gets in she'll be up there with the Shooters and Fred Nile controlling the Legislative Council.

That will make at least four honest politicians in the upper house in NSW.

Wobbles,

A second rate Labor government would be a breath of fresh air. Neither the Federal Labor under Juliar or State Labor can claim to be any where near competent.

The purpose of Pauline Hanson is to say things that are not politically correct, but that many people are thinking. Like the greens, One Nation can never be main stream as their ideas are fringe and would be disastrous if implemented.

Luckily Labor and the greens together cannot block legislation, so her vote would not be needed.

Adolf said what many people were thinking. He was VERY popular, and the middle classes and working classes flocked to his side.

When they looked around it was clear to all these prgamatic, clear-headed people, these God fearing Christians who loved their friend Jesus, that the solution was to 'throw the Jew down the well'.

Which they set about doing, very efficiently, as only a Germanic mob could do, and everything was fine ever after.

We should take a leaf out of their book, eh?

Led by our honest Christian leaders in the Upper House, backed up by the clear headed Shooters and Mrs Hanson?

As I recall my history memories of NSW, it was the state where the neo-Fascists very nearly got off the ground during the Depression.

Read the fictional story in Kangaroo, it's close enough to the truth.

Read the real story in the history of that state.

See it in action in the current political climate, in NSW, and gathering pace throughout Australia, contributed to by both sides of politics, as our miserable politicians fail in their self-imposed task of 'leading' us all.

You lot can speak well of Hanson and her ilk, I'll stick to my history lessons and be fearful of what happens when pig-iggerance is accepted as 'wisdom'.

Why not just ask Alan Jones and his spiteful nitwit radio colleagues to run the nation, and be done with it.

A wealth of wisdom pours out of his gob every day, after all.
