PTO Attempt

Hopefully by now you have been made aware of the PTO attempt happening in our country. We first became aware of the issue during the PP elections. They entered through the Labour Party and took it over. Then they put candidates in other parties to try to win seats in Congress.

We are still tracking the origins of this PTO. Once we are certain, we will let you know, but not before then. That is not what we need right now.

We are at war and our weapon is your vote. I don't have to tell you how devestating a PTO would be. It is time to set aside our differences of opinion and to do what we must to ensure the security of our country.

Many of you have been critical of my lack of transparency this term. As you can see it was not without cause. Timing is critical in situations such as this one. Information given out too soon would have jeapordized our efforts today.

Transparency sounds good in theory, but when it comes to national security it makes no sense at all. I shouldn't have to remind people of that. When you are in a fight do you tell your opponent what punches you are going to throw? No, you don't.

IRC Rat

Manni decided to pretend to be me in the IRC yesterday. It was to pump people for information. His motives are simple. It's not that he doesn't like Ireland. He doesn't like me. The feeling is mutual. 😉 I keep killing his multis and ruining his fun.

Please use caution when talking on the IRC. Make sure you know who you are talking to. Use codewords or security questions before jumping into a conversation. Unless you know it's Manni, then play along and give him false information. That's always fun to do. 😉

But in all seriousness, use caution when talking to people. We like to give people the benefit of the doubt because that's the kind of people we are. Unfortunately there are those who could care less about that and like to do things for the lulz.

Impeachment Attempt

Speaking of lulz. Teutorix Aleria thought it would be funny to put me up for an impeachment vote. Let's just say the results were intresting. So if you see TD's and former TD's go missing, that's me impeaching them. For the lulz, you understand. 😉 You know I'm kidding, right? I know who they are, and I'm not surprised.

Well, I must be doing something right. Now I'm a REAL Irish politician joining the ranks of people such as Patton and Nithraldur. I feel honored. lol

For those of you who missed it.

Ministry of Community

Now for the fun part.

I encourage you to read up on the MoC's latest articles. The lottery is still going, so be sure to purchase your tickets. AND the Community Awards are coming up once again. Please, take the time to recognise your fellow citizens, young and old. I want to see some new faces in those categories. There are many I can think of who are deserving of such recognition.
