- the LSAT (all paid and just waiting to be taken in October)
- DELE
- The BAR EXAM
- The ICSA (I figured a genius like me will be able to squeeze this one in)
- and a stupid English exam (TOEFL or IELTS..)
yes, your president, Adila-Mike Nasir just only now knew of the unitary executive theory.
*head desk*
i could have used any of these arguments as total valid reasons should i flunk out of law school. i have two crazy colleagues whom it would be downright offensive for them, for me not to call them my best friends. yet i managed to survive. and with not bad results.
o thank you, Lord Almighty.
the reason we need to stand in front of the US embassy to get action is because we don’t have direct diplomatic negotiations with regards to israel, yes?
This is the perfect time to be generous.
Get your parents to give you $12 000, and do the same.
i’ve come to realise that 2006-2008 is basically the years I spend plotting for 2009.
but come 2009, do I really know what I am about to do?
This is the original post which got me started on this blog.
Our Vision
Centrism is not defined by compromise or moderation, it is considerate of them. It’s about achieving common sense solutions that fit the current needs; support the public trust; serve the common good; and consideration of short and long term needs.
The Need for A Centrist Party
Let us be honest here. We are a struggling economy. We are not an isolated economy. Potential fall of the US economy will most likely mean death for ourselves too.
Well, have you ever heard that political gridlock is bad for struggling economies? At almost 50/50 government-opposition power distribution at the policy-making level, we are in danger of extreme political polarization.
Who wants to talk seriously of health care issues, long term budget and economic policies and weigh the total pros and cons when each party is forced to stand at one end of the political line and stick to it?
Both parties are preoccupied by political warfare. At this point, legislative leaders on both sides rarely even pretend to favor working together to solve important problems. In fact, I suspect they are determined not to solve problems, at least not to solve them until the next election comes along, and so they can win with the same issues. None of these parties will now benefit from solving problems.
Also, by keeping issues alive, the parties can differentiate their ideology, raise money, fire up their core constituencies, and conduct media battles. To our national shame, solving problems isn’t the real political goal.
Who is still neutrally debating on the basic issues of pro-oil hike vs subsidization?
The centrists. That’s who. While we might be seen as the lowest of the low, the nonchalant people who are obstinately refusing to take sides, we know that we are standing at the only position true to ourselves.
And that is to debate. We are born to be in the policy-making system. Centrists will continue to debate proven policies, and continue to experiment on weird weird weird policies, but we will ensure you, minimal tax will be used, and while we will be weird, we will surely be progressive.
Why you will make money out of us
Because Adila-Mike, your Prime Minister, is a minimalist. If you give me my dose of Muse CDs and allow me to marry my abang spain, I promise I will live in a hut and be happy forever and not use any of your tax money. This is genius policy at its best =p.
I also promise to spend 1% of your tax money on the weirdest investments. Silver, electric cars, basically weird weird things. Your tax will unfortunately have to increase by 1%, but in the off chance that one of our investments make it huge, I promise the money will still be channeled to you 100%, as long as I still have my abang spain and my hut.
I will question every single spending in the country. The wisdom of using soap for example. Do you know if nobody uses soap, nobody would smell like shit and we would save 9 billion Malaysian Ringgit?
No? That’s because I made the 9 billion up, but the former is completely true, I swear.
My Cabinet
I will enforce discrimination in the cabinet at its worst. Only centrists will be even considered. Which basically means nobody will have any idea on what the country’s policies will be about until we leave the room - because even us centrists would not know anything yet.
Like I said, we will be weird. Sometimes we will come to a deadlock. But we will be progressive. We will not waste fund finding the Big Foot, but we will create a private charity-organization trust fund to communicate with aliens. And I promise, not a cent from tax money.
Ah, priority for ministerial position will of course be given to INTPs and INTJs.
What about the oil issue?
Pfft, I can’t believe we never thought about this. Stop exporting the oils. 1% of your tax money I will invest on electric cars.
I will announce to the world that Malaysia, is out of oil, while making it obvious that we do, and that we are just hiding our oil. This will mean that our currency will not be affected, people will not think we are a struggling economy, and people will continue to invest in us.
While we of course, cleverly hide our oils.
Instead of RM 600 to support your oil expenses, I will buy a bicycle for each and every Malaysian. We will organize group bike-surfing every week.
At the end of 2010, we will still have oils which will have quadrupled in price (well maybe, if not, I’m still banking on the electric car investment). We will be the hottest, tonest, flattest-abs-having country in the world, not to mention richest!
Screw 2020, 2010 is the new date.
And it is at that point which I will pass a new law allowing every single Malaysian women in the country to have their very own abang Spain.
Yes, I am absolutely awesome ![]()
