   One thing I’m really enjoying from this whole affair is that the smugness has totally evaporated from the RWNJ trolls :p

   ps. Are there any links to the Labour ads for those who are sansTV

   Has National put up any policy yet? Pretty minor stuff – microscopic.

     In “shock” from Dirty Politics probably. Perhaps he’s possibly even wise enough to stop trolling as he knows he’ll get metaphorically whacked in the head with a clue-by-4 composed of stuff from the book…

     Srylands and Puckish Rogue are strangely silent and unwilling to defend their mate whale, turncoats..

     Kean to know if Srylands thinks his financial support of whale-fail has been money well spent..

       Maybe they have been too busy taking on Campbell Live.

       Campbell reported tonight that, when CL covers WO/Slater etc, they get a whole big bunch of attacking emails from WO commenters – many using the exact same phrases. Campbell highlighted a post by comment by one WO-ee saying he’d just sent CL an email. Campbell talked to the guy on the phone – didn’t have so much to say on the end of the phone.

         Only the seriously sick could defend WO, unless they’ve been blackmailed into it..

   O H !

   “At the end of the day ..”

   At 3:00 “Is there anyone here who can swear before God, she has nothing to fear, she has nothing to hide?”

   At 4:45: “She’s been laughing at you, while she’s having her men, she’ll be nothing but trouble again and again. You must sack her today. Sack the girl today!”

   LES MISERABLES

   At The End Of The Day

   Workers:
   At the end of the day you’re another day older
   And that’s all you can say for the life of the poor
   It’s a struggle, it’s a war
   And there’s nothing that anyone’s giving
   One more day, standing about, what is it for?
   One day less to be living.
   At the end of the day you’re another day colder
   And the shirt on your back doesn’t keep out the chill
   And the righteous hurry past
   They don’t hear the little ones crying
   And the plague is coming on fast, ready to kill
   One day nearer to dying!
   At the end of the day there’s another day dawning
   And the sun in the morning is waiting to rise
   Like the waves crash on the sand
   Like a storm that’ll break any second
   There’s a hunger in the land
   There’s a reckoning still to be reckoned
   And there’s gonna be hell to pay
   At the end of the day!

   Foreman:
   At the end of the day you get nothing for nothing
   Sitting flat on your bum doesn’t buy any bread

   Workers:
   There are children back at home
   And the children have got to be fed
   And you’re lucky to be in a job
   And in a bed!
   And we’re counting our blessings!

   Women:
   Have you seen how the foreman is fuming today?
   With his terrible breath and his wandering hands?
   It’s because little Fantine won’t give him his way
   Take a look at his trousers, you’ll see where he stands!

   And the boss he never knows
   That the foreman is always on heat
   If Fantine doesn’t look out
   Watch how she goes
   She’ll be out on the street
   Workers:
   At the end of the day it’s another day over
   With enough in your pocket to last for a week
   Pay the landlord pay the shop
   Keep on working as long as you’re able
   Keep on working till you drop
   Or it’s back to the crumbs on the table
   You’ve got to pay your way
   At the end of the day!

   Girl:
   And what have we here, little innocent sister?
   Come on Fantine, let’s have all the news!
   [She grabs the letter from Fantine.]

   “Dear Fantine you must send us more money…
   Your child needs a doctor…
   There’s no time to lose!”

   Fantine:
   Give that letter to me
   It is none of your business
   With a husband at home
   And a bit on the side
   Is there anyone here
   Who can swear before God

   She has nothing to fear?
   She has nothing to hide?

   [They fight over the letter. Valjean rushes over to
   break up the squabble.]

   Valjean: (as M. Madeleine)
   What is this fighting all about?
   Will someone tear these two apart?
   This is a factory, not a circus!
   Now come on ladies, settle down
   I am the Mayor of this town
   I run a business of repute

   [To the foreman…]

   I look to you to sort this out
   And be as patient as you can—
   [He goes back into the factory.]

   Foreman:
   Now someone say how this began!

   Girl:
   At the end of the day she’s the one who began it
   There’s a kid that she’s hiding in some little town
   There’s a man she has to pay
   You can guess how she picks up the extra
   You can bet she’s earning her keep sleeping around
   And the boss wouldn’t like it!

   Fantine:
   Yes it’s true there’s a child
   And the child is my daughter
   And her father abandoned us leaving us flat
   Now she lives with an innkeeper man and his wife
   And I pay for the child
   What’s the matter with that??

   Women:
   At the end of the day she’ll be nothing but trouble
   And there’s trouble for all when there’s trouble for one
   While we’re earning our daily bread
   She’s the one with her hands in the butter
   You must send the slut away
   Or we’re all gonna end in the gutter
   And it’s us who’ll have to pay
   At the end of the day!

   Foreman:
   I might have known the bitch could bite
   I might have known the cat had claws
   I might have guessed your little secret
   Ah, yes, the virtuous Fantine
   Who keeps herself so pure and clean
   You’d be the cause I had no doubt
   Of any trouble hereabout
   You play a virgin in the light
   But need no urgin’ in the night.

   Girl:
   She’s been laughing at you
   While she’s having her men

   Women:
   She’ll be nothing but trouble again and again

   Workers:
   You must sack her today
   Sack the girl today!

   Foreman [spoken]:
   Right my girl!
   On your way

   “that’s all you can say in the life of the poor.”

   But ‘they just made bad choices’, oh dear Mr Key looks like those words are now coming back to haunt you.

   Yesterday, maybe, not sure…but it was on Nat Rad morning report…i heard John Key defending his staffer’s involvement in snooping around Labours computers by saying the left would have done the same thing….and then an interesting boast….he claimed to know that the All Blacks had done the same sort of snooping on the Wallabys lineup.

   True? Lie?

   If its true…how would he know?

   Is he so close to the Rugby Union that they would let him in on a secret/cyber crime like that?

   Or did he help them out as head of the SIS or GCSB?

   In the blizzard of bullshit, here and there, is Truth….

   John Key’s government has hidden its policy agenda at every election so far. It’s policy in 2008 was “time for a change”.

    What I learnt today is Bhatnager’s dad had a knighthood for services to business and the community nominated by Richard Prebble, yet Cameron Whale has basically ensured his Dad will get nothing ever, and brought shame on his family.

    Karma….

    If I were an All Black, I would feel deeply insulted by Key’s insinuation that at the end of the day, you do what you need to do to win the match. Including cheating.

    I bet they’re boiling mad at the NZRFU to have been thrown under the bus in a throwaway line.

      And don’t forget that shitty picture, that showed Key as the Leader of the AB’s on that rugby mag. Bugger I have had to mention that boring bloody Game

    Been browsing Hager’s redacted version of the latest Whaledump (I prefer to read that rather than the raw data)

    And I just love the exchanges between Slater and Aaron Bhatnagar, starting about line 840.

    Discussing how they are going to publish the stolen Labour Party data to best effect, strategies, how to torture Labour by drip-feed leaks and turn them into liars…

    It takes on a certain dramatic irony, reading it now.

      lol:

      Cameron Slater, 6/11, 10:48pm

      they will attack me

      that strategy is what national would do

      well, he was right – national did that, hasn’t really worked though 🙂
