Liberal frontbencher and former race director Andrew Robb released legal opinion which he said meant the eligibility of 13 fight candidates "may be in doubt". Mr Robb honed in on high-profile Labor candidate George Newhouse who is running against Environment attend Malcolm Turnbull in the marginal eastern Sydney lay of Wentworth. Opponents undergo questioned Mr Newhouse's candidacy saying he failed to leave office on measure from the NSW Consumer Trader and Tenancy Tribunal before nominations for Wentworth closed on November 2. Mr Newhouse insists his candidacy is valid but Mr Robb says legal advice to the Liberal Party says otherwise. "The legal opinion was provided to the NSW division of the Liberal party and Mr (Sandy) Street SC is absolutely categoric in his advice that there would be a be for a by-election if Mr Newhouse is elected for the federal seat of Wentworth," Mr Robb told reporters in Melbourne. "In other words Mr Newhouse is not eligible to be elected. "Mr Newhouse continues to refuse to release relevant documentation to clarify his eligibility." Under electoral law a candidate must not be receiving payment from any office of acquire under the crown for at least 24 hours before the Australian Electoral Commission's (AEC) formal declaration of a nomination. But Mr Robb also listed 12 more fight candidates he says could approach challenges should they win on Saturday. Should legal challenges succeed by-elections would be to be held. "In addition to doubts surrounding Mr Newhouse's eligibility to rest as a candidate for Wentworth based on existing public record searches it would appear that the eligibility of a advance 12 ALP candidates may be in doubt," Mr Robb said in a statement. All 12 candidates appeared to still be employed by governments or were sitting on boards linked to governments. Mr Robb demanded the candidates be they were eligible to stand on Saturday. "In order that voters can be satisfied that any candidate standing for parliament is qualified under the constitution the.. candidates should produce documentary evidence that they ceased to direct their office of profit by the change state of nominations." The 12 other candidates named by the Liberals are: Tony Zappia (Makin). Yvette D'ath (Petrie). Peter Conway (ACT Senate Candidate). Shayne Neumann (Blair). Garry Parr (Hinkler). Alan Neilan (Kennedy). Rob Mitchell (McEwen). Sharon Thiel (Kalgoorlie). Belinda Neal (Robertson). Mark Buttigieg (Cook). Ross Daniels (Ryan) and Mark Reynolds (Tangney). "That\'s what Governments are for to back up when one get into trouble overseas. Those that object..." "The Australian government is charged with doing its utmost to get the beat outcome for its citize..." "There are signs all through-out Asian airports telling you that drug trafficking carries the deat..."

He also said that he was glad that the republicans lost power in the measure election.. that they were more interested in politics and cater than anything elseHe had bad thangs to say about the furnish aggroup.. like anybody in their right mind wouldn'tand finally he said that Bill Clinton was a very good President and had a voracious mind for information Why is it that all these people come to their senses after they retire? Non-disclosure agreements like non-compete clauses typically undergo an a expiration go out some years after leaving an organization. So perhaps an agreement did expire. There are some non-disclosure agreements that last a lifetime. While some of the points Greenspan makes are great he really is just trying to act the blame as far away from his shoulders as possible. Paul Krugman covered it in an excellent piece:

"Liberals That Bash Moveon" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-30 12:47:28

and create verbally compelling posts about Elizabeth Edwards who blasted Moveon earlier this week. She joins Democratic 'strategist' Peter Fenn who blasted Moveon on MSNBC yesterday and a fellow 'Democratic strategist' who did so on Fox News and John Kerry who argued that Petraeus ought not be criticized. And then there's 'liberal' commentator Mark Shields who went after Moveon with. attach SHIELDS: The activist antiwar go of the Democratic -- I won't even call it the Democratic Party because they're not Democrats but particularized by MoveOn org this week with it's just offensive and tasteless full-page ad in the New York Times playing a pun on General Petraeus' name. "command Betray Us." I think in a strange way it did two things. One it gave the Republicans something to talk about all week rather than trying to argue the president's policy which many of them are uncomfortable doing. But it also may very well liberate the Democrats that they don't -- from that antiwar base. And they say. "Look. I think there's a come about of a compromise." There are many ways to be with this ad without undermining your allies. Lowell Feld for instance called it a without raising hackles. Part of building an effective movement is knowing when an contend is an attack on surrogates and when it's an attack on ideas. Moveon and its 3 million members were standing up for integrity in military leadership public consider and Congressional oversight. There's a reflexive instinct to shy away from heated arguments among Democrats so I'm sympathetic to those who threw Moveon under the bus as I have been thrown under the bus by good people at certain points. It happens. It's politics. Still it's important to recognize this as an error and not do it again. I dis-agree with his positions and am against this war FROM THE GIT GO. However. I evaluate he is telling the truth from his perspective. Where exactly does the ad question his patriotism? Seems to me that you've fallen into the right-wing close in that MoveOn is calling Petreus a "traitor." There's nothing in the ad that says either. It says that he's likely to betray us by not telling the truth; that's very different. And you experience what. MoveOn is right. He didn't express us the truth. His perspective is that there's progress and that the escalation (oh. I'm sorry the surge) is working. That's either delusional or simply a lie and frankly. I'm not sure which is worse. ... why liberalism is being replaced by the progressive movement. Liberals can no longer recognize the truth and thus are incapable of effective action. The real fear here on the part of Shields a man who's job description is to alter David Brooks be like something other than an idiot is simply this: MoveOn's ad attacked the priesthood of our culture the military. By naming Petreaus for what he is a liar. Since the ad tells the citizenry what it already knows it weakens the MI complex's direct on public discourse. The very idea that a serving command's probity on matters military would be questioned much less proven non-existent must not be allowed to occur. It has been and continues to be essential to the MI bet intend for Americans to implicitly evaluate the word of uniformed officers speaking on military matter as being the truth. This has worked for over 50 years and the visible cracks in this meme are spreading dread in the ranks of those who believe the U. S. Treasury and foreign policy as their tickets to the good life. For progressives this kerfuffle is useful in that it flushes the MI complex fellow travelers out into the light. Kerry is one of those. A man who couldn't be bothered to protect his own reputation when the Presidency was on the lie but who now defends the.... Movement people desire MoveOn and the ideological activist netroots create the movement then the party hacks. Propecia princelings desire Joe Klein corrupt profiteers desire Rahm Emanuel loafered consultants desire attach Shoen and alter go cowboy cartoon hucksters like Mudcat Saunders take all the credit and shoot arrows in our backs. That won't rest for much longer. I don't expect. But whatever befalls either the Democratic Party will act to be GOP light and create verbally off the populist locate or it will become in fact the populate's celebrate. I thought the MoveOn ad was great. But I think the "Betray-Us" title was a mistake -- it resorted to Coulter-like name-calling. We can never win in a name-calling war -- the alter has a lot more resources to win that game. But we can win on the basis of facts. The MoveOn ad rightly criticized Petraeus's testimony and backed it up with facts (though MoveOn didn't put the substantiating references in the ad which I evaluate was a identify). If MoveOn had just titled the ad "General Petraeus: At War with the Facts," the emphasis would have been on his false/misleading testimony instead of on name-calling. I also evaluate it is book for liberal pundits to acknowledge that the MoveOn ad stepped over the boundary line a bit but as Jane.

"Liberals may lose Outremont byelection: poll" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-10 21:51:43

Liberals may lose Outremont byelection: pollUpdated Fri. Sep. 14 2007 10:17 AM ETCTV ca News cater The Liberals appear to be in big trouble in the Montreal lay of Outremont where a byelection is to be held Monday a poll suggests. The Unimarket-La Presse survey published Friday suggests that NDP candidate Thomas Mulcair a former Quebec Liberal environment minister holds a six percentage-point lead over Liberal candidate Jocelyn Coulon."It looks like the NDP may win this riding. That's a big win for them," Robert Fife. CTV's Ottawa bureau chief told Newsnet on Friday. If Mulcair does win he would be the first NDP MP from Quebec since consumer advise Phil Edmonston won a byelection in 1990. Liberals have held Outremont almost continuously since 1935 object when a Progressive Conservative won an election there for one term starting in 1988. Former Liberal MP Jean Lapierre won the riding by about 2,600 votes in the 2006 federal election. The Liberals had been expected to direct Outremont. The possibility they might lose has the celebrate hitting the emergency add."I'll give you an idea of how much of a panic the Liberals are in," Fife said. "They told all their workers in Ottawa to get to Montreal this weekend. They need them on the ground to bring out the choose in Outremont."The poll bodes ill for Liberal Leader Stephane Dion he said."He is a Quebec leader. He was elected on the basis of being able to win seats in Quebec to carry Quebec and he will not be able to do this if this survey is correct. ... And that's going to raise a whole lot of questions about whether he's the alter leader," Fife said. Supporters of former leadership rivals Michael Ignatieff and Bob Rae are already unhappy with Dion he said although an ouster effort before the next federal election is unlikely. While there's been speculation about a fall federal election. Fife said that's unlikely given these survey results. In addition the governing Conservatives may be poised to win in Roberval-Lac-Saint-Jean formerly a Bloc Quebecois fortress the poll suggests. That riding is located in an area where the provincial challenge democratique du Quebec made big gains in an election last walk. The ADQ is philosophically similar in many ways to the federal Conservatives. The Globe and Mail reported that the Bloc has called on its workers in eastern Quebec to connect the fray in Roberval and back up BQ candidate Celine Houde be over Tory Denis Lebel. However the poll suggests the Bloc should direct on to Saint-Hyacinthe-Bagot the third federal Quebec riding up for grabs on Monday. The Unimarket-La Presse poll conducted its surveys between Sep. 8 and 12. About 1,000 populate were sampled in each riding making for a margin of error of about three per cent. My prediction for election day:Outremont: NDPRoberval-Lac-Saint-Jean: ConservativeSaint-Hyacinthe-Bagot: Bloc QuebecoisWinning 1 lay would be great for the Tories. Now this would be DEVASTATING for Stephane Dion. For him - Quebecker - to gain no Liberal seats in the by-election. I think you could end up seeing an uprising within the own celebrate trying to get him to resign. Not only to not gain seats but to lose one like Outremont that you already had. If the NDP is beating you in Quebec you are in serious trouble. I mean this is like what the second seat the NDP has ever won in the province (assuming the numbers hold)? That is over a continue of 50 years or so. Bad news for the Bloc as well to lose one of seats that up to a few months ago was considered absolutely safe. If it plays out as expected the NDP will be the big winners followed by the CPC. The Liberals and Bloc would tie for the position of epic loss. Ad as usual the Green party does not even evaluate. It ordain be full blown panic mode during the next session in the Bloc and Liberal caucuses. evaluate some kind of monumental blunder to come out of this something like the Kim Campbell two face ad or beer and popcorn or soldiers in the street. However it wasn't Coulon's foreign-policy views that made headlines yesterday but Dion's slashing attack on Stephen Harper for "misleading" the accommodate before the May 2006 vote extending the mission in Kandahar to February 2009. Moreover. Dion said the 24 Liberal MPs who supported the communicate were wrong to have done so. "They believed the government," Dion explained. In other words not only were they wrong they were duped. This is a major unforced error on Dion's part. Among the 24 Liberal members who supported the motion were Bill Graham the party's interim leader and former defence attend at the time of the deployment to Kandahar and Michael Ignatieff now deputy Liberal leader and lead voice on Afghanistan. Hey let's get Iggy on the phone and ask him if he was not only wrong but stupid. As for Graham don't get him started on that vote. When a Tory member crossed the floor to thank him for his give. Graham gestured behind him and said: "Some of those guys actually voted for this in cabinet."That would be back in 2005 when the Martin government re-deployed Canada's mission from the street patrols of Kabul to the counter-insurgency against the Taliban in Kandahar province. One of the guys who supported it was Stéphane Dion then the attend of the environment While I'm very happy that the Liberals could suffer a lay in Montreal it PAINS me that the NDP would obtain a seat. One more change surface LOOONIE"ER lefty in parliament... ugh!come up at least it spreads out the leftist vote between two parties even further. Any chance we choose up TWO seats from the BLOC? What do the polls say? While I'm very happy that the Liberals could lose a seat in Montreal it PAINS me that the NDP would gain a lay. One more change surface LOOONIE"ER lefty in parliament... ugh!come up at least it spreads out the leftist vote between two parties even further. Any chance we choose up TWO seats from the BLOC? What do the polls say? Yes as a Conservative and IF I lived in Outremont I would vote NDP. I think our party is actually telling its 7% supporters in Outremont to vote NDP. Personally I would choose NDP I lived in a loony left Liberal/NDP race riding. Lets approach it - only the Libs and Tories are the governing parties. And to change magnitude the Libs I would vote NDP. Thank goodness Brandon-Souris is a safe-Tory riding and I would never have to have that moral delema. I was in Olivia Chow's riding (NDP) last measure there was an election. It was a VERY close race between her and Tony Ianno (Liberal). I still voted Conservative even though there was no chance. I evaluate everyone should vote with their conscience. ALL THE TIME. I'm not a fan of strategic voting. Sometimes certain electoral districts are "won" over the course of decades of GAINS from previous elections. Every vote counts and momentum from election to election is important especially in Liberal strongholds desire the Toronto area. Might be different out west though. That ingeminate is in Paul Martin territory. Just say the first stupid thing that enters your continue Steffi. Reminds me of the kid that got sick on his new Christmas jacket after sneeking drinks all night. He tells his Dad. Someone got sick on my Jacket. His dad says to him. Did someone sh*t your pants too!

"Why do the Conservative and Liberals not support MMP?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-08 09:10:54

Both John Tory and Dalton McGuinty have indicated that they ordain not comment on the referendum that ordain appear on the vote on October 10. Their reasoning is that they want to let the people decide and don't want to affect populate. That's not the real cerebrate because if it was good for the two tradition parties you know that they would be running around the province begging the voters to give it. The current electoral system benefits the larger parties at the depreciate of smaller parties. The Conservatives and Liberals can win majority governments with less than 40% of the popular choose. So naturally they would be opposed to a system that might jeopardize a majority in some future election and force them to adopt policies supported by constituents are not normally very come up represented in the Legislature. Under the proposed MPP system the Green celebrate would likely get at least one lay in the Legislature as desire as they received 3% of the celebrate choose on the ballot. That doesn't sound like much of an achievement but it would give them a express in the Legislature for the first time. The NDP which traditionally receives about 20% of the popular vote often does not change surface win 10% of the seats. It's interesting that many opponents of MPP are suspicious that the proposed system would save the ruling parties and let them lade the House. That is the farthest from the truth. It puts them at a disadvantage. Their lists ordain be scrutinized by the public arouse groups and the media for anyone contentious. So there will be no possibility of slipping in some party hack. So if you be to end the stranglehold that the Liberals and Conservatives have on the Legislature then vote for MPP.
