At 2 out of 5 that means ACT has a higher percentage of libertarians..!

Bro - you know and I know that you are displacing your disgust with your own heroes, Douglas and Hide et al, onto the Greens when Act and National and the lobbiests that control them are the perpertrators of the very acts you say you despise. Easy (and dull) for you to rant at the Greens lack of influence, knowing how difficult it is to change the greedy types that make up the parties you support. To make your claims even more bizzare and hypocritical is the glaring fact that the man you adore and adulate, Roger Douglas, is one of the arch-criminals in the cruel and nasty world of factory pig farming. How you can berate the Greens and keep your face straight at the same time just amazes me Bro - are you blanking the facts about Roger Douglas out each time you blame the Greens for animal cruelty? You <i> never </i> address the issue of Douglas the Pig Torturer and I suspect you are to cowardly to talk about it now - we'll see.

All I want you guys to do is be honest, next time around tell the people, let's have Russ stand up and say "it is not Green party policy to do anything about animal welfare, river water quality or legalising dope'. The shame is all your Fly, ten years of telling lies, ten years of being Labour's lap dog and ten years of chronic underachievement.

Who are the purveyors of animal cruelty here bro? The Government - and who might they be? National and Act and Maori. Your heroes. Shame bro, shame!

Ten years Fly and you have achieved NOTHING. At least be honest with the voters, just tell that you do not care.

Lets see what you guys have achieved in those ten years, well, first we have.....actually, what HAVE you achieved? Ten years and nothing on animal welfare issues. Ten years and nothing on legalising drugs (thank god) Ten years and our rivers are dirtier than ever. Nothing you have achieved has been on 'Green issues',perhaps it would be more honest of your MP's (and those you rort to get into the house pre election) stopped asking for votes based on the lies you tell re animal welfare.

Smokin'! Where is it now btw? If Nandor's not using it, it'd look well on the wall at the BackBencher or where ever relics of the past are displayed (no, not the Act Party caucus, or the Progressive's AGM.) Can anyone point me at information on growing de-natured, THC-lite hemp commercially, for fibre, carbon etc?
