| Message | "I OBJECT to Ms. Koffenbaum's highly offensive statement towards women!! How dare she assume that women and mothers spend their time in kitchens!! Seeing as how letters have absolutely nothing to do with kitchens, her remark is pure sexism against her own gender!! We demand an apology!!" -Judy Gottlos, Head Archon of the ARM |

| Message | "And besides, what right do you have to privacy in your letters, which are so keen to insist are read by women only "in their kitchens?" Why should she need privacy over her letters unless she has something to fear?" -Judy Gottlos, Head Archon of the ARM |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
