Trouble with one nation, it was run by a bunch of ignorant hicks.. the fact that theyd been branded as racist is testament to that. They were never able to articulate exactly what they stood for without seeming and looking racist..I mean if it walks like a duck?...well u see my point.

And any credibility on the economic side of things ..well Bockstar did say it so well..'print more money'...

I still cant believe they actually said that.

One Nation tried to run a racist agenda and Im sorry but not everyone agrees with you T800.

I mean Pauline Hanson looked stupid..very weird looking eyes..it is about presentation like it or not.That 'deer in the headlights' stare did nothing to make her look more intelligent..and her lips were twisted and mean looking.She had a mean witchlike evil stepmother look..all that was missing was the wart on the nose.

Factually incorrect taurus, perhaps you should reread the topic before commenting. BTW Bockstar was factually wrong and I already pointed that out... miss it did you?

There were a few very clever and intelligent people in ON. people who used to belong in other parties. Their Blue Book which you probably never saw and the media never reported on explained quite a few things very well.

The propaganda was just that... only the naive and ignorant these days seem to believe it.

As usual I give you the chance to refute or argue the point on anything... however I feel repeating something already shown to be completely wrong is just living in denial and wasting everyone's time.

Dear Taurus, would you mind backing up your "ON tried to run a racist agenda" with at least one fact ?

Can you find in anything other than the Leftist media hype, anything resembling a 'fact' in terms of their policy ?

This I just HAVE to see :)

Tell you what I DID see.. the ABC edited the release of ON immigration policy, when it aired the story in evening prime time, and all the viewers saw was a 'head' (ON Immig spokeswoman) and a statement "THe ON immig rep has strong conflict with Ruddock" not a SKERIC of actual policy reported. Item one on their policy was 'Immig must be POPULATION based'... u find this racist ?

Do you find "All Australians should be treated equally" racist ?

my my.. how far they have deteriorated.

Bockstar was right about them wanting to solve the cash flow problems with..'we'll print more money'..i remember that myself..come on guys..they were ignorant and played into the hands of the lowest common denominator...racists and bigots..they were ONs main supporters.

Pauline Hanson was simply echoing what these ignorant bigots were saying around their morning cuppas...thats why she had their support..she was simplistic and ignorant and yes, racist.

Nothing wrong with racial debate, but it must be tempered with sensitivity and wisdom..otherwise a nation is divided and unrest soon prevails..noone ie best served by this scenario and thats what they were doing.

taurus you obviously don't know anything about One Nation. You obviously haven't read all the information I have provided for you. You obviously didn't even read the refutation of bokstar's rubbish. Why should ZI waste my time refuting stuff you post that has already been explained and refuted?

"Bockstar was right about them wanting to solve the cash flow problems with..'we'll print more money'.."

No he/she was wrong. as are you... i already explained it.

"they were ignorant and played into the hands of the lowest common denominator...racists and bigots..they were ONs main supporters."

I don't consider myself the lowest common denominator. In fact many members I know are patently more intelligent than you appear to be. They weren't racists a point I have already refuted nor were they bigots unlike those working dishonestly against them.

"Pauline Hanson was simply echoing what these ignorant bigots were saying around their morning cuppas...thats why she had their support..she was simplistic and ignorant and yes, racist."

I suppose she wasn't a very good racist them as she worked with and left an asian friend in charge of her fish and chip shop. As for Hanson... she wasn't the only member of One Nation. Many were better educated and used to belong to other parties. OMG... don't tell me other partyies had racist members... heaven forbid.

"Nothing wrong with racial debate, but it must be tempered with sensitivity and wisdom."

Things you so far have failed to present.

Gee i wonder what "One Nation" means? Would it have anything to do with Unity? Educate yourself taurus and go read the topic from the beginning instead of wasting my time replying to ignorant rubbbish based on propaganda and lies.

If you refuted Bockstars point and not Bockstar him/herself then it holds no water, still simply your veiw. Your dictorial tone doesnt serve you well T800..."i told you'..not polite language in anyones estimation.

I am able to recall as well as you can the very unfortunate debut of ON and all the crap surrounding it..kids being attacked in school yards where I lived at the time because of the villification ON was espousing then

The fact you say ON was a valid political party says more about you than maybe youd care to reveal if you were sitting in my seat.

You can surf the net and find all manner of rubbish to 'support ' your point re: these weirdos but then on the net we could find the exact same support for Hitler and his ethnic cleansing as well.
