Black-Out Day (or Changing Religions)

I never really knew him as well as I needed to…
He walked among us but he was different.
He was a man who only said what was necessary.
So many questions with so few answers.
Then the black day arrived, when he was banished from our media life.
Would I live to regret not knowing him better, when the day of judgement arrived?
…
But then I was overcome with righteous joy!
On the third day he would be resurrected in a different incarnation.
He would be the way, the truth and the light would shine brightly on all his words and deeds…
And we would all know who he really was…

And we will hold hands as one and he will preach peace and unity…
We will be in awe of his power…..
And he will gather his disciples close to him and he will cast out the unbelievers
His word will be “The Word” and we will  all walk in his shadow.
He will wash the blood from the seats of power and
He will welcome the money lenders,

For he will be nothing without them…

Part IV - Taxation Policy

So will you increase the GST?
I categorically deny we will increase the GST!
So how will you pay for your promises?
We will not increase the GST!
Where will the money come from?
By cutting the flab, reducing waste and being more efficient than them.
Isn't that what all previous governments have promised?
Yes, and we will always be more effective in reducing waste than they will be…
Does that mean you won’t increase taxes?
We are fiscally responsible and we will only spend what we can afford.
So, no tax increases?
Our policy is not to increase taxation but rather to cut flab and where appropriate, redistribute wealth….
Huh?

Vote Fiscal Responsibility

We are the more fiscally responsible party!
So you have costed all your proposals?
Oh yes, we have had high level Treasury appraisals.
The others say that too!
Oh, but they are liars. We tell the truth!
How do we know that?
Because we are honest people!
Evidence?
Are you calling me a liar?
No, I just want some evidence to support your assertion.
The evidence is that we are the more fiscally responsible party!

The Leader’s Vision


So where do you see Australia going?
Under my leadership, Australia will be better off than under his…
And where do you plan to take us?
To a place that is better than it would have been…
How do you plan to do this?
With strong leadership and by making the hard decisions.
So you have a vision of where we are going?
I can see we will be better off than we would have been if he was leader.
Will we like where you take us?
You know the answer….
Will I still need my drugs?
