| Message | The FIP/SRNP Horse and Pony show is really disgusting. How can the FIP forgive the SRNP for their anti-humanity and ignore all the questions I pose to them? |

| Message | Voting yes for this cabinet is voting to give more power to the same people who brought slavery and war to our country. |

| Message | You need to ask the People Party the same thing, S.R.N.P. In the government reduction act the F.R.P. proposed he is also under the impression we're preparing for war or at war. At Senate Warden I'd hope you'd find it your duty to clarify that we are not pursuing such actions-especially with the pacifist F.I.P. The People Party is also sadly amiss in his impression that it was the F.R.P. that started the discussions on the Deltarian question. As anyone who can read and pay attention knows, this was presented to the Senate by the S.R.N.P. for discussions-not a declaration of involvement. And despite your treasonous and vile actions of late, we the F.R.P. commend you for acting on the question and presenting it to the Senate. The F.R.P. however would desire other parties pay closer attention to the language and proposals on the docket; much like the situation we see here. We've no further comments. Party Spokesman, Ron Seigler |

| Message | To further concur with Mr Seigler, I will state on behalf of my party and as Senate Warden, this government has no intention or agenda to put our nation on a course to war. The record attests to it. S.W. Harold Belisarius. |

| Message | Great job their Harold, ignore the first part and jump on the part you find offense with. Namely though I wasn't referring to your party but truly the PP who seem to be supporting this cabinet despite you not because of you. Also, before I continue talking about war, is the SRNA made of Solentian citizens? |
| Date | 22:37:57, April 19, 2008 CET | From | Solentian People Party | To | Debating the Supreme Presidential Cabinet 2563 - 2565 |
| Message | The only comments I would have to the FRP, is that I am supporting this cabinet because it will be a cabinet that deals with peoples concerns, improves and lowers unemployment and sorts out the foreign relations front- all the things your parties got so wrong whilst you were in the cabinet. As to the FRP's comments about my belief we were verging on war- who on earth can blame me when you told us on numerous occasions war was likely and then sparked off a range of random news report rumours citing war was around the corner and that no foreign office official would deny or confirm the rumours- you left us completely in the dark FRP and let us to believe that war was around the corner, you took transparency and democracy away from politics like you almost did with Proportional Representation and you made a shambles of the foreign affairs brief. How can anyone trust you with a ministry of anything again? You scared people into thinking war and inevitable, have we had a war yet? No. Then on top of this FRP, you also made a bill which requested the government makes no civil defence preparations, despite saying war was a possibility. So you got this country, totally panicked about a war and proceeded to take away civil defence??? Does this not sound bizarre to anyone else? Thank goodness the FRP are out of the President post and soon the cabinet. Martha Wheatdale, PP Leader and Whip |

| Message | The SRNA is entirely composed of Solentian citizens, yes. If your own party members want to break ranks and join, they're certainly welcome. |
| Date | 02:02:30, April 20, 2008 CET | From | Autonomist Party of Solentia | To | Debating the Supreme Presidential Cabinet 2563 - 2565 |
| Message | So then how does the SRNP seperate sending Solentians to war from not war? You are a member of our nation and our senate, acting independently and involving Solentian citizens in war is indeed bringing war to our country. There are portions of the world that support Communism and your actions will bring their attention to our home front, and now you are being given even more power and responsibilities despite the misuse of them inn recent years. |

| Message | We will speak no more on the non-issue your party is obsessed with. |

| Message | It isn't only the APS that is "obsessed" with this; members of the A.A.T. have continued with their discussions with the F.R.P. and they are more than alarmed at your radical nature. Furthermore, it is the People Parties apparent recent change of leadership to whom the task of leading the flippant party is incapable of reading or looking at legislative acts and who proposed them. They as well have an "obsession" with the S.R.N.P's warmongering, bigoted, racist and xenophobic ideology. Signed, Party Spokesman Ron Seigler |

| Message | Being called a warmonger from the FRP after they nearly led us to war, is rather like being called stupid, lazy and fat by Homer Simpson. Total and utter hypocrisy once again from the most war obsessed party here- FRP. Bob Harrison, PP Leader/Whip |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
