[Talleyrand]

What exactly have I done to be expelled? Has the Federalist Party abandoned its own ideals on civil liberties, conservatism, and capitalism, or has it just been taken over by these low IQ losers??? I hope they will come to their senses, but it seems like they're too far down the rabbit hole.

For the sake of the nation, I urge the party to unite around my campaign; only together can we stop the scourge of communism and make this country great again.

As much as I don't like Tallyrand's policies and trolling, we can't claim to be a democratic party if we expel people from the party.

Thank you for a courageous, principled stand! I am confused as to why you dislike my policies though; I intend to unveil them this Wednesday and I assure you I am in broad agreement with the conservative, free-market, game revivalist ideals of the Federalist Party. As for "trolling", I most assure I am dead serious; I would not be attracting broad support from across the ideological spectrum otherwise. United we can win and take back Atlasia!!!

[Talleyrand]

Why have the cowards voting to expel me failed to provide any reason at all??? Unsurprising, but I am deeply wounded. Unless we unite behind my banner, we will not secure a conservative working majority in the Senate.

I highly doubt Talleyrand that many Federalists will vote for you, and I'm currently won't.

Why? I am the most conservative candidate in this race, and the only one committed to restoring this nation. I have already announced I am releasing a comprehensive plan this week, which you have not even waited to see. I am OUTRAGED at this treatment!!! I have made multiple efforts at arbitration for the sake of this nation, but have been ignored by sweaty clowns who cower at the thought of confronting me directly and choose to vent their jealousy through other means!!!

[Talleyrand]

How ridiculous!!!

I am the true conservative in this race. Supporting a path to Northeast independence isn't mutually exclusive with that. The only LIBERAL in this race is Pikachu, and you are the only one ruining the party by endorsing him!!! Not to mention you are are a wrecker who has severely damaged the party's reputation through your series of lies and attempt to turn the Pacific into a theocratic backwater.

I am the only candidate who espouses Federalist values and has a strong plan to save this country.

I motion to suspend the vote until my plan is released this Wednesday!!! This is only fair!!!

[Talleyrand]

I have many allies in the Federalist movement. You are only tolerated out of pity!!!

I have not been given a fair hearing. No one has asked me any legitimate questions or waited for the release of my plan. This is outrageous!!!

[Talleyrand]

I have no idea why I am engaging with a certified diplodocus such as yourself!!!! I really do have too much patience.

That said, that PM score is outdated and several years old from my naive moderate stage; I have moved to the right since then. I am a conservative by Atlasian standards, and will prove that through the powerful plan I am releasing Wednesday.

Not sure if it's penetrated your thick head yet, but not all conservatives are outdated barnacles like you!!!

[Talleyrand]

 

I strongly urge a suspension of this vote, and ask that it be reopened on Wednesday.

[Talleyrand]

With all due respect Mr. Leinad,

I have settled my disputes with Mr. Conservative already. As for Mr. JoMCaR, he has had a pattern of highly disturbed, bizarre behavior dating back many years, as evidenced by his viper-like contradictory posts on my campaign thread and this one. He has made vicious attacks on me even when I took care to behave with political correctness!!!

I have no desire to fight with the Federalist Party and I have taken on stances at odds with the party's platform. That is a patently false statement!!!

In addition, you are making blatant lies about my views on dual officeholding; I have stated multiple times that the compromise initially proposed by Mr. Oakvale and later proposed by Mr. Kalwejt was an acceptable one. Of course, you lack the intellectual honesty or decency to acknowledge that!

And I have stated many times I no longer support dissolution, but creating a better game from the shambles we are currently in. Once again, you are totally making up facts here. And as for my statements on regional rights, I believe that Mr. Yankee now acknowledges the crisis we are in and is open to reform; I believe we have more in common than ever before.

And I have never accused you of being a sock since your first weeks here, which were several months ago.

Glad we cleared that up!

I have also reached out to multiple individuals in this party proposing to meet at a common ground and to sign a pledge on their terms, but have received no response. If anyone is the wronged party here, it is myself.

-Talleyrand

[Talleyrand]

I am busy until around 10 this evening. I will respond to all inquiries/slanders/questions at that time, as well as release my comprehensive restoration plan!!!

[Talleyrand]

I am gratified to announce all questions will be answered tomorrow. I am busy crafting the plan to #makeatlasiagreatagain and incorporating it with rich federalist values!!!

You left the Labor party because it split over the districts proposal, not because you had moved to right. Had districts gone through, would you still be a member of the Labor Party?

You claim to have moved to the right, after years of facilitating the worst excessess of Labor and openly pushing for the very partisan Senate administration we got a taste of last summer with TNF running the place. Ironically, this transitition sounds very similar to a certain someone who also likewise claimed to have moved to the right, but still continued to facilitate such excesses for months and even years until arguably a rather convient opportunity came around to parade as a paragon of Conservatism.  Undertanbly we would be weary as a result.

I support consolidation, I do not support regional abolition, nor the abolition of Regional Senate seats. Supporting reform does not equal being anti-region, and approaching it from that mindset, surely you can see will set off still more red flags.

1. I have never supported regional abolition!!! My current plan, in fact, calls for 3 seats to be allocated to each region in the Senate.

2. If districts had gone through, my departure from the Labor Party would have simply happened later. The party once stood for decent ideals, but at the time it was undergoing communist infiltration I was deeply concerned about!!!

3. I have moved significantly to the right, although I am a moderate conservative moreso than a hard-liner. In mock parliament, I am allied with a conservative party, and I have proposed to end the union-coddling, overspending communist laws in place in Atlasia.

THE TALLEYRAND PLAN; THE ONLY WAY WE CAN RESTORE OUR GREAT NATION

1. Slash the bloated bureacracy- We need competitive, strong elections, not pointless offices so every dummy can get a position to satisfy his ego! Here is my plan-

-3 regions (or 2 with Northeast Independence), each with 3 legislators, 1 governor and 1 judge.

-The three regional judges convened shall form the Supreme Court.

-A 9 member Senate with 3 regional senators and 6 district senators. Each region will have two districts. Class A will be elected with the president and consist of the regional senators, and Class B will consist of all the district senators and be elected in midterms. The Senate shall be presided over by a Prime Minister, so the senate shall be a partisan body.

-No more Vice President- this is a pointless, idiotic position. The cabinet will be cut down to an Interior Secretary to manage internal affairs and a State Secretary to manage external ones; they shall be tasked with updating the wiki or face dismissal. There shall be a Registrar General and a SoFE. No Attorney General- the President may appoint special prosecutors instead. A Game Moderator shall work with the South Americans to create rich, realistic, and interesting scenarios!

-This plan only has 30 total officials for the game, and if Senators pull double duty in Cabinet, even less!!!

2. Recognize South America and/or the Northeast

-We must inject a realistic notion of foreign policy into Atlasia, and recognize the self-determination of peoples. We must work constructively and creatively with our southern and possibly northern neighbors to replicate some semblance of trade and statehood!!!

3. Clean up the economy

-Eliminate the communist, union-boss policies and create a free-market Atlasia with a strong economy that we can be proud about on the world stage!!!

-We must have a legislative reset to alleviate this crisis.

4. Fix the Constitutional Convention and enforce our laws

-The current constitutional convention is bureaucratic, legalistic nightmare like Atlasia itself. We need to suspend rules and move along with the job instead of wasting time over trivialities such as who should open whatever thread. Let the delegates do their job!!! I will seek a delegate position when one inevitably opens up to promote this.

-Make sure illegal behavior isn't tolerated.



I now open the floor to questions!!! #restoreatlasia

[Talleyrand]

Are there any further inquiries???

[Talleyrand]

Senator,

My views have significantly changed since Spring 2014 as I have met the wondrous joys of capitalism face to face. Some of the bills I would repeal include the Contract Act; I would also eliminate the ludicrous 20 hour workweek!!! By 2015, the Labor Party was focused on some very aggressive movements to maintain a foothold in power and nationalize energy. It seems like the party has been moved back to sanity once more, but my views no longer fit the party's agenda!!!

Any other inquiries???
