I'm pretty sure I remember reading he was the libz 'spokesman' on something-or-rather. Despite various people pointing out that he was, well, somewhat unhinged. It seems neither ACT or the Libz display much judgement in choosing the people who are involved in their parties. It would be awesome if there was a party right of National that wasn't a joke.cheesefunnelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-63880667606899328902011-10-27T00:03:18.427+13:002011-10-27T00:03:18.427+13:00@ACT Youth: Elijah is not and has never been a can...@ACT Youth: Elijah is not and has never been a candidate for the Libz.Craignoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-57457533896604151502011-10-26T23:39:08.722+13:002011-10-26T23:39:08.722+13:00@ACT Youth: Elijah Lineberry is entitled to voice ...@ACT Youth: Elijah Lineberry is entitled to voice those opinions, but they have no relevance to Libz policy which is that government should be colour blind. <br /><br />As for "getting the house in order" you will find that Elijah will not be appearing as a Libz electorate candidate or on our party list.<br /><br />Unlike ACT, you will not find Libz pinning its hopes for survival on marketing an unsellable bigoted moron to the voters of Epsom.Richard McGrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15389391427613887331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-32168442470198616952011-10-26T23:21:21.170+13:002011-10-26T23:21:21.170+13:00PC if you say that Banksie is a bigoted moron, the...PC if you say that Banksie is a bigoted moron, then how about a Libz candidate I recalled from the last election named Eli Lineberry, who is a bigoted moron. He hates niggers. I remembered a few posts here on your blog by Elijah calling Obama a nigger. Again, I said yesterday, why don't you Libz try and get your house in order before you criticize candidates from other parties, huh?ACT Youthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-50988806834153706122011-10-26T18:30:56.696+13:002011-10-26T18:30:56.696+13:00Bullshit KP.
