| Message | I really wouldn't complain if I were you. And as for my vote, I abstain. I appreciate my position in the cabinet but I refuse to vote away my hold on Prime Ministership. Though I don't think this cabinet needs my vote to go through. I'm not against it, but I'm not totally in favor of it. Hence, I abstain. |

| Message | I truly appreciate what you have offered here and thank you, but I cannot, in good conscience vote for a cabinet that includes the SDP. They are power hungry and have already shown that they are willing to sabotage the democratic process to get power. I would like to point out that neither CED nor SDP approval is needed, LBSC will support if he keeps his Prime Ministership, and I will support if I get defence, justice, internal affairs. |
| Date | 05:29:12, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Socialist Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | I would prefer a cabinet which includes my party. My party holds views that are similar to yours and has more seats than the Social Democrats or the Chinkopodian Economic Democrats, not to mention the New Liberal Alliance. Please propose a cabinet with representation for my party. |

| Message | You read my mind...yeah I would support if I keep Prime Ministership. |
| Date | 12:22:30, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Social Democratic Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | VCK, why dont you just leave CA and LBSC out of it? Surely their comments here prove they are nothing but slef obessed and power hungery themselves and unwilling to co-operate to create a good government |
| Date | 12:41:53, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Vuloch Ca Korzia | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | I made a promise to make a cabinet of all the talents and all of the political spectrum. I urge the LBSC and CA to vote for this, for if you abstain then the proposal cannot pass. I ask SPD and the other parties to resolve their differences, or some extremely painful decisions will have to be made. |
| Date | 13:44:24, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Darnussian Strength Initiative | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | So sabotaging government is all forgivable once you back someone for HoG? |
| Date | 18:25:02, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Vuloch Ca Korzia | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | I'm sorry? I've nominated YOU for HoG... |
| Date | 22:50:17, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Social Democratic Party of Darnussia | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | CA is not willing to work with any party, it is not willing to have any position, Just put NLA and Pop front in |
| Date | 23:49:27, January 05, 2006 CET | From | Darnussian Strength Initiative | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of March 2166 |
| Message | to VCK: I meant SPD's support of you for HoS, I get the two mixed up. And to the SDP, this party is willing to work with any party that is loyal to this nation and not hellbent on merely improving their own power. You have quickly forgotten that I have offered cabinet posts to the LBSC, CED, VCK, NLA, and CPD. Meanwhile, you have been forming opposition groups and alienating all parties with poison bills. |
