| Message | A National Action delegate in the National Congress: "Whether you call yourselves Libertarian Socialists or Revolutionary Orangemen, you cannot hide the fact that you are servants of the corperate oppressors. The people shall not stand for this, rest assured. They have toppled tyrants before, and shall do it again. Death to traitors!" |
| Date | 22:35:37, January 13, 2007 CET | From | Progressive Party | To | Debating the The Orange Reforms II |
| Message | A speech by Alfonso Gonzales: "Servants of the corporate oppressors? They are accusing us of being oppressors. When have we ever supported corporations in the first place? We propose bills that support equality and freedom and they claim we are trying to get tax cuts for the rich. We don't want tax cuts for the rich, what we want is for people to live in a society where the Militarist Party doesn't run the lives of the people. We think that a socialist economy can exist without a police state. The system the Militarist Party supports would take everyone's rights right from under their feet and the military and police would treat all citizens unfairly. The Militarist Party is evil and will do whatever it takes for their power-hungry leaders to have total control of Sekowo. Resist! Resist! Freedom and socialism forever!" |

| Message | In "The Socialist" (the journal of the RPP): "The Red Puma Party support "The Orange Reforms II" and congratulate the comrade Alfonso Gonzales for his speech in the National Congress. He reveals the demagogie of the Militarist Party who say the LSP and the RPP are not the parties of the people... But the people know the truth ! The working and popular class know that the RPP and the LSP defend his interest and not that of rich and oppressors ! The Red Puma Party think that it is time to construct a democratic socialist order in this countries ! La Lucha sigue ! El pueblo unido jamas sera vencido ! Antonio Marti for Central Committe of the Red Puma Party" |
| Date | 13:07:20, January 14, 2007 CET | From | Red Puma Party | To | Debating the The Orange Reforms II |
| Message | Short article in the "Union of Sekowo Daily": "A important part of members and leaders of the Red Puma Party don't agree with the third article of "The Orange Reforms II" because they think that internet must be regulated by the government for fight against illegal use (child abuse and racist, nazi or terrorist web sites)." |
