Office of Chairman TNF: Red Army takes NM, UT, ID, AZ

[Sol]

Well, I differ from my esteemed colleague in that I'm certainly in your favor.

And I'll be sure to use that lovely ashtray!

Backstabbing=me voluntarily choosing to run in a free and fair election?

Backstabbing=me voluntarily choosing to run in a free and fair election?

I mean, it's your right to be in the race, but it wasn't exactly voluntarily because after I left IRC last night, I found out you asked oakvale and TNF if you should run for Althing (most likely to spite me for my comments last night) and when they were open to it, you declared your candidacy very, very shortly after. It seems you're more concerned about reviving your own political career with the success of your lawsuit than actually giving a damn about the issues. In fact, you've never said a peep in any of the Althing threads.

If you choose to stay in this race, I am going to play rough though because our Midwest establishment is popular among regional voters and this region deserves an active, bipartisan legislature away from one-sided, extreme leftism.

16:39   AdamCFitzGerald   I've heard rumors you were actually behind why Snowstalker is running for Althing....
16:39   AdamCFitzGerald   That's not true, is it?
16:40   SnowstaIker   lol no
16:40      *** SnowstaIker is now known as oakvale
16:40   oakvale   He did say in here "should I run"?
16:40   oakvale   and me and TNF said "if you want"
16:40   oakvale   that's about it though
16:40   oakvale   he wants to rehabilitate his horrible reputation I think
16:40      *** TNF joined #atlasforum
16:40   oakvale   comrade!
16:40   oakvale   guess who I was talking about when I said "oakvale   he wants to rehabilitate his horrible reputation I think"
16:41   TNF   yo oakvale
16:41   TNF   hmmm
16:41   TNF   snowstalker?
16:41   oakvale   ding ding ding

There was talk in the IRC about Snowstalker running before you made those comments

My opponent is opposed to democracy and believes it is homophobic to run against gay people in an election. Keep this in mind as you go to vote in a few weeks.

Adam seems to have a... flexible definition of the word "homophobic"

It obviously means someone who wants gay teenagers to kill themselves

lol @ adam fitzgerald talking about bipartisanship (the Labor Party controls all but 1 seat in the Midwest Legislature)

The legislature is smaller than most of Atlasia's regional legislatures though and even with just one Federalist, we're still more than willing to work with Spamage. In his short time in the legislature, the two of us worked together to stop the construction of any new nuclear power plants to avoid the creation of any new nuclear waste and find alternative forms of energy (though it narrowly failed). Same goes for Cris and despite party affiliation, we elected him Pres. Pro Tempore and we had several laws passed that were unanimous votes.

If the Midwest Labor Party was seeking to end all forms of bipartisanship, don't you think when Cris announced he was stepping down that we would have attempted to win that 3rd seat? We agree as a legislature that there does need to be a good balance among parties and ideologies, but given the MW is Labor-heavy, the legislature does represent the citizens.

There were also rumors that he was going to reenter the Presidential race, to.

This notion that I oppose democracy is ridiculous. I support the constitutional right to free speech and you can even have the right to be as loud and offensive as you want, but not when you use that free speech to provoke somebody, especially if they're a bullied minority like the LGBT. Also, you're taking my words out of context. I referred to you specifically as "anti-gay" and that's because you're the main guy responsible for why LGBT kids will continue to commit suicide and homophobes continue to get away with robbing and beating up LGBT people without proper reprimand. I don't consider it "homophobic" that you're running against me or Sol. That's absurd.

Those 'rumors' were based on posts made by oakvake when he was parodying Snowstalker

[Adam Griffin]

Is it just me, or does anyone else remember that Snowstalker abandoned the Labor Party while being an elected officer of the Politburo, lambasted us as being the "establishment party", tried to recruit our members and then re-carpetbagged to the Midwest?

If everyone in the Midwest has as good of a memory as I, then he stands about as much of a chance of getting elected as I do Mideast Senator - rebellious IRC plotting be damned. When you walk away from us, then you're not rewarded with our votes.

[TNF]

I invite all those in my office to join me in song:

Arise, the workers of all nations!
Arise, oppressed of the earth!
For justice thunders condemnation:
A better world's in birth!
No more tradition's chains shall bind us,
Arise, you slaves, no more in thrall!
The earth will rise on new foundations:
We, who were nothing, shall be all!
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!

We see through their disinformation:
Designs to turn us into war.
But soon, the soldiers in formation
Will break ranks and fight no more.
And if those cowards think it's their right
To sacrifice us to their dream,
They'll see the power of our own might;
It's time to end the old regime.
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!

Just we, the workers of the world-wide,
The mighty army of labor,
To own the planet have a true right -
But the parasites — never!
For too long we've endured exploitation,
Too long we've been the vulture's prey.
Farewell to days of condemnation!
The red dawn brings a bright new day!
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!
  Forward, brothers and sisters,
  And the last fight let us face;
  The Internationale
  Unites the human race!

[Snowstalker Mk. II]

Congratulations comrade.

Congratulations comrade.

Thank you for your support, comrade. Here's hoping that you win election to the Althing!

Hopefully you enjoy your last term, before you get crushed in October.
