| Message | We, the democrats agree to this proposal , but we also wish to remind the social-democrats that we will not make any compromise to pass bills if they are strongly against our beliefs . |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I would like to say that the Democrats are wiser when they engage in a Conservative cabinet than in a Socialistic/ Communistic one. Rep. Jerome Hunter, Leader LP |

| Message | Mr Speaker, ( I like this :)) ) It is our belief that the party with the most seats should have the opportunity to propose a cabinet . Also we believe that we can help the country more by choosing to be a part of this government taking into consideration that we would act and vote according to our opinions and also that we will have a very important voice when decisions will have to be made. Adolf Huffman , President of The Democratic Party |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Choosing to be part of this government can also be with another government than this. This government will destroy Rutania once again and will leave it as one of the poorest countries in this world. I urge everyone, Democrats and R!R to vote against this, to help our country forward not destroy it. We need to lift up a dependent, weak Rutania to a independent strong Rutania and it's a fact that this proposed cabinet is not ready to lead in that effort. We need to take action now, to keep the Government out of our lives and make Rutania free again. Rep. Jerome Hunter, Leader LP |

| Message | Mr. Speaker , As I said before , I agree with the fact that only the largest party can propose a cabinet , so whatever the proposal would be , social-democrats will make it this year . Our other variant would be to vote against , and after 3 times of unsuccesful proposals to call early elections , but we wish to give a chance to this cabinet . Adolf Huffman, President of the Democratic Party |

| Message | OOC: Libertarians, what you're doing is essentially godmodding. You can't just unilaterally decide what the effect of our policies has been in the past (the future speculation is fine, since it can be dismissed as such). I may think that your policies would cause recession, mass unemployment, and a breakdown of social order, but I've not stated this as fact. We should focus purely on the moral arguments, as we have in the past. |

| Random quote: "In Germany they first came for the Communists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew. Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
