Go Howard!

[??????????]

6 minutes, and no luck with a webcast; the ABC doesnt have one and I dont think channel nine has one either. If anyone finds one, tell the other blokes here.

I might be popping in through the night but I'll basically be off. My top 5 to look at with interest? Solomon, in the Northern Territory; Bass in Tasmania; Hinkler in Queensland; Dobell in New South Wales; and Adelaide in South Australia. And of course the three-way contest in Wentworth, and my home seat of Melbourne Ports

And statesrights-if you are so in favour of states rights, you'd be voting for Latham in this election; Howard is a huge federalist. Whilst I'm a federalist, he really has hurt states rights, and that one of the reasons every single state and territories lower house is controlled by the Labor Party.

I have no idea what Howards done on the local level. But I am grateful for his support of President Bush and the war in Iraq. Latham says he will immediately pull out. Therefor I have no choice but to support Howard.

Is M not a right-wing hawk? Does he not want war with Iran?

I think you're missing the different between "Jew" and "the rest of us". Can't blame their fanatical fascist bent though... after six million were wiped out... they learned you can only fight fascism with fascism! LOL.

Not only a troll but an Anti-Semite. Cute.

LOL, u have a map with Virginia & West Virginia as the same state and you accuse me of being an anti-semite? LOL!!

I could answer that if it made any sense...So Virginians hate Jews?

Come on, are you seriously going to tell me Jefferson Davis was NOT an anti-semite?

Judah P. Benjamen (A southern Jew) was one of top cabinet members of the Davis Administration. Plus, the south had a higher population of Jews then the north did in 1860. Mostly because bigoted ant-semites ran the Jews out of cities such as New York, Boston and other large northern cities.

And of course the all important :

Complete BS if you look at most confederate supporting groups today.

The KKK is not a confederate supporting group.

The KKK is not a confederate supporting group.

Then why was it founded from former confederates?

Their have been three official KKKs. The first one (which you are referring to) was a veterans organization established to provide monetary aid to confederate veterans and their families. They were banned after reconstruction and came back again in 1916. They were 'refounded' on stone mountain, georgia and their goal was to suppress the black vote throughout the south. Their organization was up to almost 20 million members during the 1920s. One of the top leaders of the Klan was accused and convicted of rape. The organization quickly lost credibility and disbanded. It was reformed again in the late 40s as a response to segregation.

Yes and all of them were/are directed at bigotry against blacks, Catholics and JEWS.

Obviously you can't/didn't read what I posted. The first KKK was not established for hateful reasons. Get a clue. Pick up a history book. Stop wasting my time and start a thread if you want to discuss this as this has nothing to do with Australia.
