| Message | I was going to approve, then i noticed you managed to sneek your name into the middle of the anthem. Im a fan of the flag though |

| Message | Thanks PRF. Looks like Matty stole my party flag from the takedown board. Of course offering up my flag as the national flag is a surefire way to get my vote. Well played Matty! As for the national anthem. We'll just pretend it's a DIFFERENT Matty. |
| Date | 16:00:40, October 19, 2007 CET | From | Christian Action | To | Debating the The Cildanian Socialism Act |
| Message | The Cantons are too large to be Soviets, the flag is a desecration and if an International Socialist State is enforced on Cildania it must be with the under standing that the CNP take militant action against it, and approach the Copitalist and Liberal parties as well as Foreign powers for support against the Red threat. The Marxists must remember that they are popular with the right and centre parties only due to the common struggle against the dictatorship of Finance, as soon as Cildania has been freed from the Money powers and Copitalism all ties between the communists and the Cildanian parties will be cut and International Socialism fought absolutely. -Lear |

| Message | Ehhh.... Now it's loaded up with that drivel. Bleh. As for CNP's comments. There is no Red threat. Communism brings happiness. Those who are unable to feel the joy will have their situation quickly remedied in psychiatric hospitals and re-education camps specifically engineered to stress the importance of unbridled felicitude. |
| Date | 03:20:17, October 20, 2007 CET | From | Christian Action | To | Debating the The Cildanian Socialism Act |
| Message | To control the conditioning and enforce views of unhappiness is to destroy the struggle. It is Struggle which defines man from animal and struggle which is the root of all that is good in civilisation. For Communism to succeed it must destroy Humanity in order to create the comrade, to re-educate is to destroy the humanity in a man in order to align him to party thinking and party happiness, Under Communism there can be no Art, no Poetry, no Faith and no Love, under communism a man is no more than a gear in great machine he is stripped of intelligence, free thought, faith and in the name of an equality which the communists claim he has been given by right of birth. We in the CNP demand the right to be unhappy, we demand the freedom to believe and the right to choose in what we believe, We retain and, yes Demand the right to be Miserable. Forced Happiness destroys the humanity of the people in order to secure stability, destroys the Struggle on which all civilisation and civilised virtues place their foundations, to deny Humanity the right for the Struggle for Equality is to deny deviation, deny intelligence, deny debate, progress and faith in short is it to deny all that makes mankind worth salt. Equality cannot be given, it Must be Earned. -Martin |
