It must be dreadful living the life of a political outcast in constant fear of impending doom, sad really.

As I have to have at least an hour of R@R every afternoon I decided to watch Question time in Parliament today. Hey you wouldn' t believe it, the old grinning Baboon has been shifted beside the exit ( I presume she is on the way out) and another grinning Baboon that sits directly behind Robertson is the next Labour Group grinning Baboon .I think her name is Darien Fenton. Have a good look at her I think she is worse than the previous one, where the hell does this Labour Group get them from ,not all from the Wellington Zoo I hope. This one has a habit of playing with her scruffy looking hair I presume she is trying to draw our attention to her as she appears to think she is really something to look at.

I see whatever else has been happening to you, Benny, the surgeons didn't remove your Nasty bits while they had you at their mercy.

If they had done that, Arandar, I fear there wouldn't have been much left, and we would have had to learn to live without Benny's pithy comments! What a lovely thought.

It's the anti-woman thing going on that so offends me and, actually, saddens me. After all this time, there are men out there who hate women in high positions. There are some unattractive males across the political spectrum but only Opposition women are targeted in this horrible way - misogyny is alive and well still - and the ONLY ugliness is in Benny's mind.

The calling of people by animal names is reminiscence of my time in kindergarten....perhaps Benny has never progressed past that stagerolleyes

No, this isn't a preschooler having a tantrum.
This is an adult male doing what he constantly does... insulting women by calling them names and referring to their appearance.
It's ugly and it's nasty and it's hateful.

Arrander, Desi, Kai, Silverfern and all those Labour Groupies who are still in bed and probably not due up till lunchtime,

My apologies to you all for for the nasty horrible utterances I have made to your M.P.Heroines in your Labour group.I didn't realise that placing these heroines of yours in with the animal kingdom was such a dastardly thing to do, I remember when our children were young and had done something a bit naughty we used to say as did many other parents "You little Monkey" but I presume you Groupies would never ever say this to your children as it would be against Labour Groupies P.C.

I have been looking back over the past 9788 "John Key posts and I have notced some of the utterances that Labour Groupees have made about John Key such as "THE SMILING ASSASSIN" etc but I presume that this sort of double standard by your Groupies is par for the course as nobody has said it is "ugly nasty and hateful and very anti-male " as as has been shown by the Labour Groupies there are opposition Women out there who hate men (such as our great New Zealand Prime Minister John Key) in very high places. So if you look back as I have done and see how some of you have described our great N.Z. Prime Minister Mr. John Key you may wish to delete some of your Labour Groupies slanderous remarks about me or on the other hand you may not be up to admitting you are wrong which is "The Labour Way"

Benny, I for one have never called anyone on this forum names nor have I called any subject of our debates names. You, on the other hand, have continually referred to the appearance of this one group of politicians, namely Labour women, with this particularly nasty insult. It says much about you as does your pathetic reasoning above.

If any one were to refer to The Appearance of your wife, mother, sister, daughter or female friend in such a manner you would be well within your rights to take exception and I fully expect that you would.

Perhaps you are just easily led. I saw QT yesterday and watched as the Prime Minister called an Opposition member "...that monkey over there..." so I suppose we cannot expect any better of his followers and supporters.

I have wished Benny well in his recovery, expressed my disgust at his attitude to women, and will have nothing more to say to him.
