Alternative Politician Mushrooms Have Arise?



The 12th elections are near. The EC Chief says so, the newspapers say so and the alternative parties appear to say so. Only that Oxfard, i mean Oxford grad thinks that it is his father-in-law who must say so.But then that guy is always so sleepy, so much so that only the other day, a group gave him a very symbolic gift, that of a pillow and bolster! As it turns out the Oxf.guy was wrong. One only has to read this article in Malaysiakini to know who are those really involved in deciding the date of the 12th elections.

Well, back to our alternative Politician Mushrooms. They are Mushrooms too, they have for the past 5 decades or so been messing around and not really getting their act together. At times they appear only to be fighting amongst themselves to forever remain as the nation's Loyal Opposition! Hopefully this time around they will get themselves better organised and provide the BN mammoth a good fight. But they will have to get their act together and allow the voters to get to know what they have on offer. What has happened in Penang can be considered to be a good first step. Malaysiakini reports that
Opposition plans one-on-ones for Penang.


Multi-cornered fights have always resulted in wins by the BN. The alternative Politician Mushrooms must have already been aware of this. But why they allowed for it in the 2004 election is anybody's guess. Ego? Plain crazy?

Time is obviously not on their side. The BN mammoth has already got a head start on them. Their banners and flags and election paraphernalia have been readied and even some have boldly brought them out on display, take a look at a recent issue of the Star.

Of course, fighting the BN election has never been easy and never will be easy and this time around won't be any different. But one can feel it in one's bones, the wind of change is blowing and hopefully the Voter Mushrooms will use their votes well and wisely this 12th elections and blow away some of those racist, sexist, bird-brained, keris-wielding BN buffoons away and prevent them from gaining entry into the august house.

Say NO, TAK NAK, PORDAH, SAYONARA .... to BN when the time comes.

Check here the next time to find out who are those who should not be in.
