my manifesto^{5}

ok today’s the day, it’s voting day and i’ve just spent a nice hour or so watching my foxtel iq recorded programs, gruen nation, qi and the chasers’s yes we canberra. I’ve sat down after mowing the grass in the backyard. this disturbingly infrequent exerise routine often gives time to think, as it takes so freak’n long, not the height of the grass but the time.

well my dear reader, after so much thinking, i’m going to provide you with my manifesto, i’m going to nominate myself as a candidate for the house of representatives in the next federal election. the television i enjoy watching has a certain smugness, intellectual integrity, and i kind of fancy ( and kidding myself into believing ), i can offer the same smug cleverness, sensible, ( in tbaoo ? ) proud statesman, world view like principles that will help me to gently steer ( or drag ) this great nation into the future, whilst frantically persecuting my humble yet completely ignorant opponents mercilessly into the ground.

that sounds like the thinking of a certain redundant kevin 07 don’t it ? he’s where now ?

ok – big heading and exclamation marks required here, off we go ..

tbaoo manifesto ! !

• i’m humbly asking that you do
• my mother would be so proud
• my bride would be able to retire
• i need the money, perks and great superannuation
• i would ensure, but not engage in, the right for people to participate in any type of sex that’s between consenting adults. there are some restrictive parameters, but they are common rights of law i.e. no violence, or harm. of course same sex marriage will be allowed, it maybe called something else, but it will have the same legal rights
• participate correctly in the un world charters that we are signatories
• not to confuse or over dramatise complex issues which result in the public becoming very scarred of anyone or anything that’s not the stereotypical heterosexual christian, of white anglo saxon origin. ignorant views expressed by people such as pauline hanson and sarah palin (and most of the fox news presenters ) would not have the weight they seem to have at the moment. people deserve to know the facts, be allowed and encouraged to become educated and thus realise that the standard response in the dumb arsed media to these issues is ridiculous. they are far more complicated than stupid rhetoric like “stop the boats”  may result in
• re-jig the australian taxation system, a major overhaul to create a smoother, more flexible and thus more cost effective process. this will be very unpopular with some, but hey it has to be done.
• quadruple speeding fines and make the penalties a real deterrent – 6 months notice then boooosh bring them in. if your caught your fucked !! the police won’t be hiding in bushes looking for people rolling down a hill either, they’ll be driving about in marked “well obvious cars”. the police numbers will be doubled and their pay increased to meet current society standards
• a re-jig of nurses and teachers wage, the idea that such work is lowly paid is a tragedy
• create safe injecting rooms, professional counselling and a doctor prescription system for drugs that are presently outlawed. the idea that people who require such drugs can go to a doctor and the prescription is given with the agreement that a counselling session is booked and a great deal of support is provided to the people who are registered. chemists will sell the drugs and of course the sales will attract gst. this sudden legalisation of the sale of drugs, will remove the ability for organised crime to flourish. the huge number of people fighting drugs and organised crime, can be redirected to other areas. it will also ensure that the drugs sold through chemists, will not contain foreign and thus unknown ingredients
• make having a laugh – law. not just a choice, but make it mandatory
• get rid of the state government system and kick the local government system in the guts to make it more efficient
• conduct an australian science olympics type every two years, promote education rather than meat head sports
• help meat head sports at a local level, i.e. children playing sport and learning that sport shouldn’t be business
• create an active arts support authority
• create an active environmental support authority
• research the population growth, sensibly, without tabloid ( or millionaire’s ) screaming
• make sure that every australian is able to access the worlds best health care at all times
• make sure that every australian is able to access the worlds best legal representation at all times

well that’s about it, of course as soon as i finish this – i’ll think of something else. if you have something you’d like to add, please leave a comment. this video below was broadcast on the greun nation last week, bloody great and suits my thinking .. i hope if you’re in australia, you voted today and made it count, if you voted for labor then i joined you, if not, no problem, i’ll be around your house later if that angry ant abbott becomes pm, and i’ll be blaming you.

no worries though – it’s the democratic system at work, ain’t it grand. it’s the truth.
