		<description>A colleague has made me aware of a thread where certain facts are laid bare by a &quot;friend of the board&quot; while I realise that Kiwiblog is not well liked at The Standard is makes for rather depressing reading ....... I&#039;d also be prepared to wager that this type of fiasco is not isolated to ODHB.

&quot;You&#039;ve got a history of misrepresenting the subject you should be an expert on HS.&quot;

And you have got a history of being a mendacious simpering turd.

Lynn 

&quot;There is a point there somewhere - right?&quot;

It was in reply to the comment above.

&lt;strong&gt;[lprent: Yeah I saw that afterwards. Remember I read backwards in time and across threads. Sometimes results in notes that don&#039;t account for the context if they show a trait I&#039;m looking for. It helps with ending flame sequences.]&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Can I take a wild guess that the crooks are actually members of the National Party?

As for Ryall, he&#039;s utterly personally dishonest so when I hear him making comments about honesty I just want to throw up.</description>

		<description>FFS

The chair of the board (who are responsible for governance) has the largest fraud ever in the NZ health system occurring for several years under his watch and people are arguing that he shouldn&#039;t have been asked to step down as chair ??

Why weren&#039;t the entire board and the CEO thrown out on their respective ear ?

Sounds like the governance down South is as good as we have to put up with in Auckland where the solution to a shortage in medical staff is to reduce the number of positions...one wonders how these people manage to breath by themselves.

The sooner someone bites the bullet and culls the 27DHBs we have in NZ for four million people the better.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;BTW, in Atlanta USA, recession here is bad and Obama is already been seen as a full of shit fruit loop already here, even by Democratic voters who voted for him in hope.&lt;/i&gt;

I think people will realise, if they&#039;re not already they will soon, that Obama doesn&#039;t really represent change. We&#039;ve already have a couple of his nominesss for postiions drop out becuase they didn&#039;t pay their taxes. He played up the fact that he wasn&#039;t a Washington insider then he goes and fills all his cabinet postitions with Washington insiders. He banned the hiring of former lobbyists, camapigned on the fact that he wouldn&#039;t hire any, then grants exceptions so he can hire them. People loudly proclaimed his shutting down of Gitmo and other secret CIA prisons, but they forgot to read the fine print, &quot;Obama&#039;s executive orders actually give the CIA authority to carry out renditions, abductions and transfers of prisoners in secret without the threat of legal obstruction.&quot; &lt;a href=&quot;http://socialistworker.org/2009/02/09/politics-of-bollocks&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;see here.&lt;/a&gt; He&#039;s going to buy up the toxic debt just like the Bushites planned to do and failed. He said bank CEO&#039;s who receive money from the government will have to have a pay limit except they can get around that by declaring to their shareholders they&#039;re going to exceed it and it doesn&#039;t apply to those that already got their government handout. He&#039;s comes out with this big stimulus plan and then asks the repulcians (which he didn&#039;t even need to do) how he can make it even stupider - by cutting the money that goes to the poor of course. So Obama promptly cuts out money for things like foodstamps and education making extra sure the money for prison inititives and more police stays there. And then we&#039;ve had attack after attack on Pakistan since he&#039;s been in power.
So I think it will dawn on Americans sooner or later that they haven&#039;t voted for change. They&#039;ve been duped.
&lt;b&gt;Prosecute Bush. Impeach Obama.&lt;/b&gt;</description>

		<description>Dean, it&#039;s not actually about Lynn. Or at least, it may be for you, but that&#039;s kind of weird. You should stop obsessing. 

What do you think about the sacking?</description>

it&#039;s called accountability chaps, not that soft-coke socialists know the meaning of the word.&quot;

Accountability for someone else&#039;s actions? kind of like how your party of liars and thieves believe the tax payer should be held financially accountable for the bad decisions of the executives of large companies I guess.</description>
