Silence, is smart at times...

In a news article published in The Star on 08.09.2008, the UMNO Youth has questioned the "deafening silence" from the bar council, NGOs and bloggers over plans by Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim to woo Barisan Nasional MPs to crossover.

Its secretary, Datuk Abdul Rahman Dahlan, has come out to say that the people should tell DSAI that it is morally wrong to grab power.

Morals?!! Since when has there been any morals in politics let alone in UMNO or BN itself. The dumb dude has got no idea what he is talking about. Just saying things for the sake of talking then talking nonsence is not intelligent at all.

Under the BN ruled government led by UMNO, the people's rights to freedom of speech and expression, freedom of the press and media, rights to equally regardless of race or religion, has all been oppressed. Where is the moral in that???

DSAI and the people's desire to end such oppression is indeed the moral thing to do, you stupid brainless dim wit.

It is the un-moral thing to do what the BN party coalition members are doing, just staying put to gain personal wealth in DSAAB retarded, corrupted government as the Rakyat suffers and the country wilts away in mismanagement.

He then continued to say that if Sept 16 occurs, he won't be surprised to see if Barisan supporters took to the streets to challenge the legitamacy of the Pakatan Rakyat government formed through undemocratic means. Bloody double standard again isn't it. They can do this but others if even attempt to show dissatisfaction in the street will have to face the wrath of the ISA.

Undemocratic?? If Pakatan Rakyat secures enough numbers of defection, by means within the constitution and laws of Malaysia, then what is so undemocratic bout that??? There is a reason for such a clause in our democratic constitution and laws of our country. It is to safe guard the Rakyat and country against mismanaging governments.

But then it'll be all talk only as usual from the BN hypocrites cause if Sept 16 happens then they will not be the ruling party anymore in the government and they don't have the balls to do nuts. What these goons will do is take to the streets and walk over to the other side and join the Pakatan.

Remember...

A democratic country is where the government is a government "of laws and not of men"!!!

The Datukshit also commented that he was surprised at the silence of the United States who usually champions the importance of democracy to the world. Doesn't he remember that not too long ago it was his seniors that told the US to shut up. So now the US keeps quite and he mocks them for their silence???

There is also this comment by the Deputy Minister of Energy, Water and Telecommunications Datuk Joseph Salang saying that if Sept 16 occurs is likened to a 'political robbery'.

Eh...then what about the BN's robbery of our basic human rights, the rights to freedom of speech, the rights to equality opportunity for the Chinese and the Indians.....???

This DSAAB government along with all its existing component party MPs and ministers has just got to go. There are all nothing but a bunch of weak flip flop butt kissing jackasses.

There is an old saying....."If you ain't got anything smart to say then the intelligent thing to do is to just SHUT UP!!!"

The basics of Democracy...

The rule of law is a fundamental component of democratic society and is defined broadly as the principle that all members of society -- both citizens and rulers -- are bound by a set of clearly defined and universally accepted laws. In a democracy, the rule of law is manifested in an independent judiciary, a free press and a system of checks and balances on leaders through free elections and separation of powers among the branches of government.

• The government is bound by the law;

• All people are treated equally under the law; and

• The law recognizes that “in each person, there is a core of spirituality and dignity and humanity.”

A GOVERNMENT “OF LAWS AND NOT OF MEN”

Equal protection under the law is a fundamental component of the rule of law and ensures that all federal and state laws are applied to citizens equally, regardless of their race, religion, gender or minority status.

Civil liberty outlines the individual rights guaranteed to each citizen, including freedom of religion and freedom of speech. These rights have been a cornerstone of the rule of law because they protect citizens’ fundamental right to freedom and liberty.

One of the most widely recognized civil liberties is freedom of speech. It states that the government shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech and the freedom of the press.  This civil liberty plays an important role in the protection of the rule of law because the personal freedom to criticize one’s government openly and the freedom of the press to report on issues of public importance promote awareness of citizens’ rights and responsibilities and result in an informed and free society.

Democracy Thrives Around the World

Democracy is an ancient concept, dating back 2,500 years to the Athenian city-state.  But democratic ideals did not take root in the modern world until the late 18th century.  Since that time, this powerful system for social and political organization has spread around the globe and takes as many different forms as there are democratic countries.  One thing remains constant, however:

a respect for all citizens’ right to participate in decisions about how they are governed.
