In my defence, I'd like to state that I wasn't even here :p

Anyway, Sam thought it was an election for a new moderator, and Mezzir voted for me in "accident", so to speak, even though he'd rather vote for George. Therefore, I'm going to transfer Mezzir's vote (so he can support George) and I will be waiting for iammesol's decision.

Ya know, we should have had some kind of hustings or debates before the actual voting took place! Reckon there should have been a thread where each candidate wrote a paragraph about each other candidates policies and then that candidate got to give a one paragraph reply in defence!

Be kinda like the TV debates!

Great idea, something that almost alien to the American conscience... you know, reason, logic, and debate... :D. We could use a good old English fellow like yourself to raise the standard here ;).

Grammar shmammer, you're also the language Nazi (otherwise known as a linguist :p)! I'm on to you, you elitist banking crook!

Clue number one, from wikipedia:
quote:
Lira is the name of the monetary unit of a number of countries, as well as the former currency of Italy, Malta, San Marino and the Vatican City. The term originates from the value of a Troy pound (Latin libra) of high purity silver, and as such is a direct cognate of the British pound sterling; in some countries, such as Cyprus, the words lira and pound are used as equivalents. L, sometimes in a double-crossed script form (₤) or less often single-crossed (œ), is usually used as the symbol.

Dervish, I feel for you buddy! The rational sane voice in politics is being marginalized and Lira, along with the other crooked parties, are conspiring against you. Fight the power brotha! :p

Well, I'm a borderline anarcho-capitalist. The only thing that keeps me from being a complete anarchist, in that sense, is that I feel there's a need for one or two rules in order to protect the liberty of all from the delusions of some totalitarian individual.

So, yeah, I'm all about the money. I think capitalism has been able to move civilisation forward, and it's just a matter of time until the income gets better distributed. But, does that mean I would use that money in my own advantage?

Well, if you really want to know, there are too few Italian and Turkish TA's around, so all I got from them was a lousy Fiat Punto and a Camel.

But no votes :(

If the other candidates agree, I'd like to move this to the poll section, where I'm not a mod!
