501288 2006-11-23 06:52:00 National radio has just announced Brash resigns as of MondayBravo, good reason to vote for National next time :D Myth (110)
501289 2006-11-23 07:46:00 Good, lets hope National has a lot more years of disarray with yet another incompetent leader. Key looks like a real nazi, right wing a...hole they have no chance with him at the helm.

Cool, Brash nearly won the last election, the National Party makes another strategic mistake, another one of many, makes one wonder how they manage to run their businesses and profit when they seem so incompetent in general.

Many very competent business owners have made incompetent politicians. Everyone makes mistakes, but in politics, even the slightest mistake usually turns into a complete nightmare.

501291 2006-11-23 09:26:00 I see that idiot English is gunning for the No.1 job in National again. If they re-employ him they may as well just send an email to The Herald and declare Helen the Prime Minister for another term at least (until they decide they made a mistake re-employing him and overthrow him again) Myth (110)
501292 2006-11-23 09:45:00 So what is new? How many National leaders have gone since Helen Clarke first came to power? Around six or seven I think.

Some get pushed or stabbed in the back and others just go.

Just once I voted National and that was when Rob Muldoon was around and he promised Law and order. We still have not got that anyway.

Last election I had two votes and I put NZ First on both of them.

Unfortunately I live in an Electorate which is very strongly Labour. I don't think I can make a radical change with my vote but I will go vote anyway.

I did not think that Don Brash was the right leader for the National Party but I would give him his due. I think Don Brash was naiive and honest. His debating skills in Parliament were sadly lacking. Mind you I must admit that debating these days just seem to be people actually asleep or hurling abuse at one or another.

501293 2006-11-23 10:57:00 Don was was a tricky dicky from the naive school and he slipped on the banana skins he dropped himself. I always thougt he was good news for labour who I reckon are the best of an undesribale bunch. What a classic liar he was. "No I have nothing to do with the exclusive b," "Yes well I did hear from them". :"Well Ok I was in contact way back then." Struth Don you know politics is tricky and people will be sniffing your armpits and you BOOBED.

National stands for the money grubbers and let everyone else clean up the mess.

501294 2006-11-23 11:24:00 Hubris: An arrogance due to excessive pride and an insolence toward others. A classic character flaw of a trader or investor.

Also, a superior attitude to those who do not have the same power or influence, ie workers, an attribute I have seen displayed by most politicians and most bosses I have ever had.

Considered to be a serious flaw amounting to a sin in Ancient Greece, the reason being that, even if the underlings are stupid they are not so stupid as to not know when they are being condescended to, the net result being that there will be instability and unrest in the society, hence the disapproval of this undesirable characteristic in leaders and people in positions of power.

I think this is a very common flaw in people these days, to assume that someone who seems to them to be ignorant is not capable of knowing when they are being talked down to. Politicians need to learn this lesson.

GW Bush is a very good/bad example of this flaw, and the worst of it is he is actually a very foolish man himself with no humility even though he is supposed to be an Xtian. Jesus would spit on him.

Brash was just a sad little character who followed the words of the right wing zealots, (you know who) and had no original thoughts and absolutely no charisma, long may the Nats keep supplying characters like him.

This is what happens when you have idiots running modern countries:

501296 2006-11-23 11:41:00 does the PM actually bear any power? sure the governing party does, but seeing as it is a democracy the PM is only really to represent power isn't he/she? motorbyclist (188)
501297 2006-11-23 19:44:00 Once Key gets into power,I am going to ask him to ban commo types who post in forums such as this.
So make the most of it Z.!
