| Message | NLA, don't pass this. |
| Date | 15:28:56, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of June 2156 |
| Message | Before I vote either way on this, why is NLA on this cabinet? |
| Date | 16:39:11, December 15, 2005 CET | From | Darnussian Strength Initiative | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of June 2156 |
| Message | There was an entirely reasonable request for outside representation within this cabinet. I considered it and decided to give the left control over two posts that I felt that they would perform admirably at. I expect NLA to appoint excellent ministers to both positions. |

| Message | As for the SDP, it appears to me that they will not support any progress made by the parties on the left unless they are made solely by the SDP. They calls upon the NLA to oppose a proposal that gives the NLA and the left a much greater role in government than they have at present. Will the NLA allow the SDP's selfishness and distain for the CA to impede bipartisanship within the cabinet? |

| Message | But a strong cabinet isn't a cabinet with many many many parties. I want more reasons why NLA should be in our cabinet. Really, you do realize how quickly the left themselves will boot you out of any cabinet position right CA? |
| Date | 01:36:31, December 16, 2005 CET | From | Progressive Democratic Alliance | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of June 2156 |
| Message | I am not part of the left. I don't have any position on the left-right spectrum as I am in the centre. I look to what is in the best interests of the people, the economy and the world as a whole. |
| Date | 01:36:57, December 16, 2005 CET | From | Darnussian Strength Initiative | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of June 2156 |
| Message | It was requested that I place some leftist representation in the cabinet, so I obliged. I am unconcerned with how they will run the cabinet. This is how I will run mine. |
| Date | 01:40:03, December 16, 2005 CET | From | Darnussian Strength Initiative | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of June 2156 |
| Message | Well then I guess the left is still unrepresented. |

| Random quote: "The European Union and environmental advocacy groups use global warming hysteria to advance their own special agendas. The European Union recognizes any significant reduction in CO2 emissions by the United States will significantly reduce its economic output, thereby bringing it closer to the inferior output of European nations. Environmental advocacy groups work to stifle economic and industrial progress wherever they find it to inhibit the successful advancement of peoples in developing nations, inevitably making mankind a second class citizen of planet Earth." - Dr. Jay Lehr |
