| Message | Disgraceful. Utterly insensible. RAPE should be denounced as a far-right political action movement. No doubt their extremism will be punished in the upcoming election. |
| Date | 05:08:35, October 31, 2007 CET | From | Les Pirates Ninja Napoléoniens | To | Debating the Let's Get Reformin' Up In This Biotch |
| Message | Doubtful. Libertarianism, and thus, proper logic, are on the way back to the top. People have finally cast aside the shackles of socialism and accepted liberty! |

| Message | Unfortunately, the voting deadline falls after the April elections, so this bill will be sent back to the debate phase. We will resubmit it then to the new congress. In regard to the SDPT, we think it is laughable that you would call us extremist when the people have consistently voiced their approval by making us the largest party in this great nation. Perhaps the upcoming election will change the dynamics of congress, but we have always listened to the will of the people rather than tell them what to do. You would be wise to open your ears to the people rather than push your agenda upon them. |

| Message | Clearly RAPE must be terribly disappointed in the most recent elections, which saw gains for EVERY socialist and nationalist party, and losses for BOTH of the libertarian parties. |
