The Senatorial race is now on.

[Miestrâ Schivâ, UrN]

I did have this set speech prepared saying how the incumbent was a great guy and I was finding it difficult to find negative things to say about it, but unfortunately the results of the latest Clark have just blown that away.

Can the Senator from Fiôvâ, a former Republican President who presided over the "if you exist, you exist" foreign policy of that state for two years, and before that was a staunch oppositionist of KR1's xenophobia and Berlin Wall antics...

... please tell his province what in the name of Almighty Atheismo possessed him to become the deciding vote in ash-canning "Live and Let Live", the bill which would have dismantled KR1's xenophobic edifice once and for all?

When did Ián Beneditschfiglheu become a convert to the idea of shutting out other Talossa-like entities?

No, I can't vote Për to a bill that will strip Talossans of their citizenship based on which non-Talossan organizations they are members of, let alone for something as vague and fuzzy as organizations that engage in hate speech. In my eyes, that would include several organisations that Talossan citizens are members of currently, like the GOP, for example. And what contitutes hate speech? Where is that legal definition? Activity that does not relate to Talossa should not be considered at all, full stop.

I have to admit, though, that I did not realise that mine would be the crucial vote.

(Isn't this the bill that the King would have vetoed, by the way?)

That does make sense, Senator - but I'm afraid you have let the best become the enemy of the good here. A bill such as the ZRT would have proposed - such as to ash-can all the anti-micronational laws - will never pass in a Ziu dominated by the reactionary RUMP and also by those scarred by the antics of one Tony Weckstrom. This may have been the ONLY chance we'll get in a while to tear down the legacy of the "Bug Nation Scare" of 1997, and I think you have made a grievous tactical error.

As to Royal vetos, let them come. The more they come against popular bills, the more the cause of Republicanism advances.

The "Hate speech clause" was out of the ashes into the fire, actually. That bill wasn't even good, it was bad. What should be done is to take out that part. The rest I can live with, the King wouldn't veto it, and I'm sure the RUMP wouldn't object any more. They claim to value free speech.
