Description[?]:
| Were you aware that Tacos have been banned by greedy capitalist pigs trying to deny the people their right to eat the symbol of freedom, the taco? For thousands of years, the taco has been a source of joy for the ethnic population in the province of Morbanack. It is with a loud cry of indignation at the nation's suppression of this regional delicacy, and humble rage at the banning of a delicious food, that the brave members of the Leftist People's Party hereby declare their adament desire to legalize the taco. It is the duty of all of Rildanor's parties to stand behind this noble quest for justice. The banning of the taco is a left-over from the radical abuses of the totalitarian theocracy that once darkened the doors of New Rildanor. No party should abide the dangerous outlawing of a natural and inherent right, the right to eat a taco. It is your obligation, fellow members of the Rotunda Assembly, to free the taco from its chains. Let the people eat tacos. May this day be remembered as Taco Liberation Day, a national holiday to commemorate the symbolic liberation of tacos, and all their delicious toppings. |

| Message | We can not let you keep the one thing you have left, if that one thing is the hallmark of an oppressive regime long since overthrown. Free the taco, for no man should be the judge over the another man's dinner! DEP: A taco is a delicious mix of beef, beans, and various organic (and thus pro-environment) vegetables, wrapped in a well cooked shell made from a grain, which can either be soft or hard depending on the consumer's choice. Tacos are an excellent choice for any meal, and herald from Mexico. Furthermore, the taco remains a symbol of freedom to oppressed people everywhere so long as it is held fast in the chains of bondage. |

| Message | whatever. |
| Date | 20:11:06, January 23, 2006 CET | From | Front Canrillaise | To | Debating the Freedom to Eat Tacos Act |
| Message | When this bill passes our party will send a taco to every member of the Rotunda Assembly, as a reward to those who supported the bill and as an insult to those who rejected it. |
