Vote gnams (or, in older spelling, gñhams), which are cougars, and the name by which members of the CÚG are called (get it?).

The MRPT is not the only serious party in Talossa. Vote CSPP, the only party serious about being serious and fun all at the same time. Wrong! A party can't be serious without objectives - and this' why Glüc founded the MRPT: to escape from an inconsistent party! To make an example, think about someone that said "I'll retire from any politic activity at the end of this Cosa" and then he proposed himself as Seneschàl, haven't he, Eovart? Vote MRPT. No more LIES for Talossa. Both the CSPP and MRPT have objectives. Have a look at our manifestos. Gluc didn't leave a party without objectives. He left the PPT because he wanted to appeal to a secondary audience of Progressives, namely more radical ones. I, then, left the PPT to distance myself from inner party events that I didn't understand. The name of my party should give that away. The CSP was a middle finger to show that everything that forced my leaving defied common sense! Gluc did not leave to escape an inconsistent party. Gluc's leaving added to the problems of inconsistency (yeah, ok , my leavings too but whatever). The only difference between Gluc and myself is that I have returned to my Progressive home after leaving. We are still awaiting our ModRad Progressive friend to do the same. Since then the CSPP have done very well, IMO, to rebuild themselves. We have a solid message, a clear manifesto and our current membership can boast a combined experience level of over ten years. We are still small, for now, however, we have every reason to believe that we will be in a much stronger position after this election, like we were before the last. The retirement thing was not a lie. Not a lot of Talossans tell lies. When I made whatever statements I have made, I made them in all honesty. I did, however, as I am able to do, change my mind. In fact, outside factors helped change my mind for me. VOTE PROGRESSIVE. |

Another Question for the RUMP: As the ZRT spokesman for culture, I notice and applaud the RUMP's desire to try and jumpstart Talossan activity within the GTA. This is, of course, laudable. But what are the RUMP's plans, if any, for connecting those diasporic (Cybercit) Talossans to our cultural homeland in and around Milwaukee? The best answer for this will be appear by way of example in about three days. :-) As amusing as our little debate on the relative merits of GWAR (I, for one have seen the inside of the slave pit... a friend of mine is part of the arts scene in Richmond) has been, I now reiterate my question since no example has been forthcoming. What is the RUMP's plan to connect diasporic Talossans to our homeland? Why has this never happened? And why does the RUMP hold out culture in such low esteem? |

I now reiterate my question since no example has been forthcoming. What is the RUMP's plan to connect diasporic Talossans to our homeland? I said to wait a few days, and those days are still passing. We didn't want to take anything away from what we knew would be a very special June 1, but what you will soon see is something that could not be announced until that day or later. In fact, now there are two things coming...very very soon.... The RUMP is proud of every cultural initiative it has been involved in since its foundation in 2005. From developing our nation's football rules to contributing to (well, creating) our nation's body of opera, to constant work on the language by RUMPers, we have nothing to be ashamed of. We also have consistently, since day 1, tried to involve those Talossans in the homeland in fostering a Cestour Renaissance. The RUMP created the Ministry of Home Affairs, and has constantly tried diligently to get it staffed with a citizen in the GTA who would act on the many initiatives the government planned for that agency. We have twice had Ministers paper the GTA with flyers. We have been the party that was able to hold a TalossaWest on Talossan soil, and we will hope to be able to do that every year. I hate to keep saying, "just wait," but I truly think that you will very soon see something big happen that will indeed show the RUMP's commitment to a flowering of our nation from within its borders. I won't dignify that question with an answer. (( Hool )) |

On the other hand, and perhaps the big reveal will change my mind on this, I feel that RUMP cultural policy doesn't really do much to connect diasporic Talossans to our homeland. And as it is a cornerstone of our cultural identity, such a lack is sad on the part of a longtime ruling party. |

Can't we all just gather around in a circle, hold hands, and sing Kumbaya? Or to satisfy the concerns of the MRPT, follow parlimentary procedure and make a motion to allow for us to sing Kumbaya?

Oh, wait, I forgot that most of us live considerably apart and communicate through the internet.

Not to worry; I have been relatively silent here on Witt because I am superbusy on exactly this. The scope expanded, but it's coming...it really is. Apologies for the delay, but I'm working very hard on it.... Hool |
