| 712263 | 2008-10-14 21:15:00 | Well with the election coming I've noticed that in any Fairfax publications (stuff.co.nz, the dom post, etc) they always have pictures of John Key smiling and Helen Clark looking grumpy or angry. One of New Zealand's main news source is purposely trying to make Helen Clark look bad and John Key look good. :annoyed: I just want to know what you think about this. |

| 712264 | 2008-10-14 21:17:00 | I'm not convinced. I saw a big smily picture of her Helen-ness the other day on stuff. JK is always smiling because he's a slimy little weasel, trying to convince people he's not. |

The amount of bad-mouthing they do of each other (More so from Helen @ John) is disgusting. At least John is smiling, I'd rather a leader who looks like they're happy about being in the position than an unhappy one who appears to be there out of obligation... Dunno if either of them deserve my vote thou :( |

Dunno if either of them deserve my vote thou :( It's politics, it's what they do. JK would bad mouth Helen if he could find anything that would stick. I agree though, her bad mouthing him is like shooting fish in a barrel. There's just no sport in it. |

It's not a coincidence that photos of Clark are taken (and published) of her looking grumpy - it's her most common visage. If you have a grumpy face 90% of the time, you can't expect journalists to wait for the 10% chance when you are smiling... Possibly worrying that her coveted UN position is slipping away.... |
