I have had this on my sidebar for already a fortnight. This was to remind me to reject any racist comments from my comment box. However, I want to take this a step further. I will publish as and when it happens, racist comments that come into my postings. Most of them will be those "brave" anonymous, but I will archive their IPs.
This evening, being a follower of Wenger J Khairy, a self-proclaimed UMNO ronin, I read his posting and have decided that you too must read his offerings.
Aminah Abdullah was the first to send in her nominations, last to campaign, but first to give a taste of the punches she has in store for PKR candidate Mansor Othman. She has sneered aside the Siames kitten and the born-again Bukit Gantang loser. This Amazon seems to have her sights only on her former party-member.
As I see it from outside the ring, she is applying Mohamad Ali aka Cassius Clay's "rope-a-dope-dope" in the first few rounds. Is she going to "float like a butterfly" and "sting like a bee" in the final round? Mansor's corner VP Sivarasa and Strategist Tian Chuah must now counter with some double-quick shuffles......if you dig what I mean????
Malaysiakini has the full story HERE and according to Susan Loone (HERE) Aminah is quite a lady!
But dang-our-ding-dongs, dangling two "either or" posts just for her to capitulate smells like an UMNO-breed machination (not forgetting that PKR are mostly former old boys of university UMNO..... and I will continue to remind them to "clorox" away that inherent stink some still cling to in PKR!). And who is PKR to make such offers when Guan Eng is the CM?
And even if Aminah is touted as a hard worker that does not qualify her for those posts. We dont need hard working people, we need SMART people. Finally, Aminah must keep true to her name, that is:
EITHER, Wakil is stalking me or he is staking me out. Same difference, no? I received this in the mail....."Uncle Zorro, I went to your hotel but the front desk told us you guys checked out at 1:00pm. Why lah? I brought some fans of the Special Bunch from the island."
OK Wakil, I am sorry about the fans....here is why.
I for once (oooppps before Pete HERE gives me a voodoo prick from Brisbane for bad grammar!!!!) I for one wanted to stay for the whole duration like I always do during by-elections but the financial market is so bad despite Performance Now PM claim that he is staying out of the Penanti by-elections to address our economy, This has not worked in our favor so the four of us decided to head for home.
However our head groundsman Viveg will work the circuit. Hantu too, in effort to get back into my good books has said that his first-cousins (two of them) is on Spring-break and have volunteered to help out. Thanks gang and I am sorry that I have to restrict you guys to just one beer a day.
Jibby's assertion that UMNO won't even send any observers is class 1, division 1 popycock. The police presence is still heavy, the heli is buring up our money and making some side money, it was rumored, giving joyrides to some VIPs and their families. That could be the reason those helis dont fly low.
Before coming to Penanti for nomination day we were of the consensus that PR machinery was well-oiled and raring to go, and probably they can manage comfortably since nemisis UMNO was a no-show. That of course is another popycock perception. The Independents are well-funded and my cock-eyed perception is that they want PR to be conmplacent. Don't be sjurprised UMNO will spring some surprises, sources close to UMNO whispered to the Duke.
Anyway, if I had my way I will string up that independent lady by her teats, and those two guys by their pricks. One of the guys lost his deposit in Bukit gantang and this siamese cat wants to be in the same cage with the another one with bigger paws. The EC should hike up their fees to at least 20k so that these violaters of mothers don't play play with by elections.
Do I sound angry. No lah....actually got up on the wrong side of bed, literally.....but more so I am getting a bit dry in the gullet vicinity. Yep, hope to meet up with Shanghai Fish and Hawkeye to watch the total annihilation of Hull, a curtain-raiser to Wednesday duel with Boom's Barcelona.
Catherine Masters is a nice old lady from Oxfordshire, England. Age 109, she is a grand old dame. Like all British centenarians, she receives a royal birthday card from the Queen. She got a card when she turned 100 and another when she turned 105, and every year thereafter.
But like most elderly ladies, Miss Masters can be a little picky. She wasn’t too happy about the birthday card. It has the identical picture year in year out – with the same image of Queen Elizabeth II, in the exact pose, and in the same yellow dress.
Perhaps Miss Masters was bored receiving the same type of card every year. Perhaps she felt it was impersonal. Perhaps she didn’t like the yellow dress. Whatever it was, she was inspired to write to the Queen to express her displeasure – which she did.
The letter reached Queen E. Did the Queen feel slighted? Did she feel upset, offended?
Hardly, in fact the Queen send her grandson, Prince William to apologise personally to Catherine Masters. Prince William visited Miss Masters at her nursing home and they both had afternoon tea. Not only did the Prince apologised, he assured Miss Masters that he will see to it that the image in the congratulatory card will be changed in time for Catherine Masters’ 110th birthday.
Following that, Catherine Masters have also been invited to a garden party with the Queen at BuckinghamPalace in July.
Now, isn’t that something!
What do we Malaysians get from our monarchs?
For the people in Perak – they don’t need any birthday cards. They don’t need any congratulatory notes. And I don’t think they yearn for Raja Nazrin to have afternoon tea with them.
They just want their right to choose their own government. Is that too much to ask?

I DREAMED A DREAM
By Douglas Wight,
SUSAN Boyle turned down the chance of a dream dinner date with President Barack Obama in Washington . . . to stay at home and wash her hair, we can reveal.
Britain's Got Talent's Hairy Angel confessed to being TOO NERVOUS to meet the American president - her most famous fan - at a glittering star-studded bash.
A source told us: "She was shocked and thrilled by the invite - but it was all too much too soon for her so she said No."
"She has been told President Obama has seen clips of her on TV and loved her singing. And she is delighted.
"But instead she'll have no doubt stayed in with her cat Pebbles, washed her hair and watched Britain's Got Talent on telly."
American TV networks all fell over themselves to give her a special invitation to the prestigious annual Correspondents Dinner which took place in WashingtonDC last night. President Obama was guest of honour and invitations are like gold dust.
Dowdy spinster Susan - who captured hearts around the world when she sang I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables - would have rubbed shoulders with the rich and famous including Hollywood A-listers at the five-star Hilton Hotel . . . and the President.
But the 48-year-old favourite to win the TV show - who lives in a council house in the tiny Scots village of Blackburn, West Lothian - turned them all down.
Susan's invitation shows what a huge star she has become in the States. And her refusal shows that worldwide fame has certainly not changed her.
"She knows she would have been incredibly nervous if she'd gone," said the source. "But her dream is to sing for President Obama one day.
"She loves him and thinks he is already a terrific
Seems so, no? Penanti has a 70+% of Malay voters. It was BN before 2008. Has UMNO given up so easily or it is employing someone to fight their battle. This would be a first-time in electoral history - outsourcing.
Or has UMNO/BN thrown in the towel. I do not hear a squek from any BN coalition partners. They too dare not contest in Penanti. It would be futile and suicidal for MCA or Gerakan or MIC to contest. They rather fade with the sunset than go out in a blaze of digrace.
Or is it because UMNO is weighed down and hunched under too many encumberances of their own making. Perak is like the proverbial millstone around UMNO's neck. The whole world is laughing over the fact that whoever okayed the takeover from the kitchen, closed his eyes over the fact that two were "diseased" frogs. Normally we throw out the bad apples, in case........and the MACC is still dragging its feet over these two felons.
Instead of taking the bull by the horns, UMNO has come out with some puerile platitudes - "we don't want to play PR;s game"......."waste of money"........."more important to save the economy".....After 50 years, BN has not realised what an (by) election is all about?
I read this somewhere:
“The purpose of electoral politics is to gauge public support and harness that support to make a success of governmental policies. In short, elections are not mere rituals of democracy but a way for the government of the day to find legitimacy.”
Key word is LEGITIMACY!
Waste of money.......????? cut out the instant noodles, the free nasi bungkus, the girlie shows, the canopies for the police, no freebies like umbrellas for machiks, cut out the billboards, all the election apparachicks. Just hold ceremahs to talk to the electorate. That way you save money to save the economy.
Or, in simple language: surrender, hoist the white flag?
Whatever, the Special Bunch is ready to rock and roll......and this time for Pete and Marina.
