| Message | Yea, we need a national government cabinet at times of war, else we risk problems on the home front |
| Date | 00:51:32, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | First of all, the constitution says that the Secretary General decides what parties get into the national government. Second, a party coalition of parties that cannot even work together in the Senate will NOT result in an effective cabinet during wartime. Third, since it's my call I say no. Fourth, If you have a problem with my call then you have the ability to amend the constitution. Good luck getting the 2/3 vote. |

| Message | Then, good luck in your war, this will be ineffective, and you will be an ineffective war leader |

| Message | The SDP URGES every sensible party to pass my motion to end this war! If we are not willing to become united, if the Head of State is not willing to temporary let in almost every party into his cabinet, for the sake of national unity and for the sake of Darnussia winning the war, then I say we must now end this conflict, before Darnussia is defeated and before we end up in a terrible state of affairs, thanks to a terrible war leader, who failed to united the country, to have a voice of everyone in his wartime cabinet and not the voices of a select few, and failed to do what is needed to ensure that we might win this terrible war. We therefore need to sign a peace treaty or, at least a non-aggression treaty with the Axis powers and remain a nuteral force in this conflict, or end up becoming a defeated nation, if we go on. |

| Message | While I do believe in inclusive government, the powers of the Secretary General are defined in the constitution. I abstain. |
| Date | 03:57:15, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | See? Right there. How can we trust you in a cabinet during war if your going to say that we'll be an ineffective leader during war? We cannot possibly allow you to endanger the nation. And besides, the Minister of Defense is decided for a very good reason, not to be replaced by other parties just because they want a chance at the cabinet and they cannot find any other excuse. |
| Date | 03:57:30, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | And since this bill itself is unconstitutional, we also abstain. |
| Date | 04:00:00, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | And because apparently you just don't get it if you vote in favor of this bill, THIS BILL IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL, DOES NOTHING, AND DOES NOT SWAY MY OPINION. My opinion is to be firm and in place with the Darnussian people in mind. How can I allow parties such as the SDP running the country when they can barely get the nation to vote for themHmm? |
| Date | 10:58:20, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Vuloch Ca Korzia | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | This is not an attempt to alter the constitution, nor is it 'politiking'. SDP has no desire to fight this war, and indeed is attempting to legislate against it. Therefore I can see no reason for including him a war cabinet. This is a call, a petition if you will, to whomever suceedes in the forthcoming election to follow an established precedent and unite the Senate at the time that it needs unity above everything else. This Bill does not seek to carry any weight in law, merely a call for all the parties who wish to unite behind a common noble goal of freedom. |

| Message | So basically you're saying that the second you can kick me out of the HoS office, this is the type of cabinet you want to implement. Start praying. |
| Date | 20:14:40, December 24, 2005 CET | From | Vuloch Ca Korzia | To | Debating the A Call for National Unity |
| Message | I'm sorry if I said anything that gave you this impression. If it helps you to understand what I am proposing, if I was to win the next election then I would include you in my cabinet for the duration of the war. That is all. |

| Message | Ah, well, okay then. |
