Labor Party Standing Committee thread: Endorsement voting

[Donerail]

The Snowstalker/Redalgo ticket will seek the endorsement of the Labor Party.

Also, I support 2, 3, 5, and 6, and oppose 1, 4, and 7.

Fan of empire, are we?

Yes, because it's totally imperialistic to have troops in Japan. Everyone knows we're busy making them into one of our hundreds of colonies, like Germany and its 50,000 US troops. Why aren't you motioning to pull our troops out of there? They've got more than South Korea and Japan combined, and they don't face a shadowy, threatening neighbor with which they are at war.

You're accusing us of being imperialistic? I'll accuse you of being less anti-imperialistic than possible! Seriously though, just these two is getting a gauge for people's desire to adopt measures like this. Germany, Italy, Kuwait, etc are still on the list. And who's the shadowy, threatening neighbor? South Korea and Japan aren't at war with China or Russia, just as an FYI.

So you don't consider North Korea a threat to South Korea? You don't consider an openly imperialist China to be a threat to Japan, though I admit it is not immediate.

Given North Korea's isolation, weakness, outdated military, and lack of things like food, the South Korean military could stomp them in a second. As for China, Japan is not presently at war with them. But that's missing the point. Defense of foreign nations is not our priority; the priorities of this nation should be helping the people of Atlasia.

The IDS would welcome a Labor convention

[Donerail]

There's around 20,000 people in Selma; don't think there'd be enough rooms for a whole convention.

You leave the logistics to us. Get over to the legislative thread and let's get this gumwad passed already. That is, unless, you'd like to join Labor?

As chairman of the Bloc and Imperial Legislator, I'm interpreting that it's in my job description to promote the IDS. Party conventions help.

[Donerail]

On behalf of the Imperial Dominion of the South I formally welcome y'all to the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex!

[Donerail]

All right, I'm joining the game.  I've been asked to register for the South, though I have a difficult time imagining myself as a Southerner.  I could register for a really progressive part of it like Atlanta or one of the big cities of Texas.  I'd prefer the North, but hey, if you guys need me there, my commitment to the party exceeds my commitment to my region.  Though I'm not sure if a gay socialist tree-hugger like me can do much good in a place like the South :/ Any advice?  I'll register once I've decided on where. 

We don't need more carpetbaggers.

Yes, you do. Labor Proud.

I'd suggest coming to either the Northeast, to boost Labor's growing power here, or the IDS, to boost Labor's growing power there. And don't worry, we're all gay socialist tree-huggers here.

What does IDS stand for?

By 'here' I meant Labor.

And we're not carpetbaggers from the Northeast. Seatown is from the Pacific and Xahar is from...somewhere.

Thus fixed.
