Trevor Loudon, Whale Oil, Silent Running should all take note: There’s a rumour going around the 8th floor of Bowen House that the Greens have established a new election campaign coordination committee called the CCCP (verbally shortened to ‘the Soviet’). It’s secret though and no one knows what it does.
Gagarin is launched into space. Before leaving from home, he leaves a note to his wife: “Dear Natasha! I’m going to outer space, I’ll be up in the sky, will be back on Monday.”
Gagarin comes back and he’s shocked to find a note from his wife: “Dear Yuri! I’m at the shop, waiting in the bread line. I have no idea when I will come home.”

Do you greens think your busy hard working moderate supporters know what an arrogant condesending pack of idiots your are (judging by your last several posts) or do you think they wouldn’t care if they did know and that you are bullet proof?

Your comment was removed phil u, because it was abusive of another commenter (as per the comment moderation policy). Not sanitising, just common courtesy.

whaleoil, this is frog’s post, not Russel’s.
And while it didn’t have me rolling around on the floor in fits of laughter, it did get a wee snigger from me. Guess humour is a very personal thing.
BTW, you need to update your profile on frogblog whaleoil - it still links to your old site (not that I bother to go there very often).

The Greens launched the anti-smacking bill into orbit with Comrade Bradford at the controls. Things are still falling back to earth: the last issue of the Listener had a front page about the Otago Interdisciplinary Health and Development Study (so much for 10 minute interviews and the Childrens Commiisioners “Meta Analysis that showed”….) It’s not smacking but how it is done and the context (IMHO) but the real issue is the process by which the decision was made.
Frog, is it true that the Greens intend to present a bill making “Waihopia Spy Base Protest Day” a public holiday?

Jh, the bill wasn’t even about smacking, it wasn’t intended to have any broad effect on smacking, and thus far it hasn’t. The bill was about child abuse.
The bill is doing its job if it doesn’t effect smacking. Its job is to take away a defence for child abuse that saw people excused for beating their kids with weapons.

The only part of this “joke” that isn’t accurate is a member of the soviet elite waiting in line for anything.
That was my boss Yuri’s response to this post.

but beside promoting the bill we were told that smacking was always a “no no” and we should watch “Nanny”. The Childrens commissioner clearly stated that (___) meta analysis of (relevant) studies showed that it was never ok to smack.
Sue B called men who smack “perverts”…
