Sage Kinney defend congressman Powell

In front of the media, Sage Kinney, the presidential candidate of the Baltusian Communist association (party), defended the right to speak of congressman Powell, who was recently cutted of his right to speak and described by his party as an idiot, for his comments towards the people Indrala, who in his eyes seem to worthy Satanails, because of their cultural association with dragon.

that's censorship. Yes, we think that Powell views on satanail are totally wrong, that he does not any idea of what he is already. His comments are offensive. but Surely there is a way out of this religious debate without ressorting to censorship of a congressman. That's major, the congressman is an elected member of the congress, he represent citizen of Baltusia. When you censor 1 congressman, you also censor a lot of Baltusia citizen. Might we recommand that Poweel and the indralans discuss about religion in private. Actually, I think the Indrala should be proud of worshipping Satanail, as you worship the one and only true defender of humanity, the being who gave us freedom, who gave us fire. Without Satanail, it would be the almighty who decided what is right and what is wrong, what you speak, what you are allowed to think, who you are allowed to love and etc. Be Proud Indralans.

The three time Presidential candidate of the UDP and one time President of Baltusia, Oliver Farnsworth, has largely been secluded from politics after the 4476 election. Pictured is the "Farnsworth Compound", the former President's residence in Castle Rock, Westbrook, where he spends most of his days.

Former President Farnsworth breaks the silence after two unsuccessful bids for the Presidency
Castle Rock, November 17th, 4477

CASTLE ROCK - After seemingly falling into the shadows after the 4476 elections, which saw for the first time a divided leftist presence in the country, Oliver Farnsworth, the former President and subject of constant controversy from within his cabinet, has broken the silence on his seclusion from current politics in an exclusive interview with The New Valois Gazette.

How have you felt since your somewhat spontaneous departure from the political scene?

Farnsworth: Oh, frankly, I've been wonderful. I've had time to reflect, spend time with my wife and three sons, and take a good needed vacation. Although my political career, while I'd say is long from being over, has been put on "Mandatory vacation."

You spoke about the continuation of your political career. Does that mean you'll run as President for a fourth time under the UDP?

Farnsworth: I think after three consecutive attempts, with one being successful, at least in my opinion, a fourth time would be pushing it. I feel I may have a greater chance of success at running for Senate, the House, or a Governorship.

What are your current thoughts on the religious controversy befalling the Republican Party?

Farnsworth: Of course it's the right of every Baltusian to express themselves, especially religious persons, but producing half-baked theories about Indrala's flag depicting Satanail, is just offensive to their people. It's wrong, repulsive, and I'm glad that both the UDP and fellow Republicans have banded together against their comments. The Indralans have a rich history, culture, and have been good friends to Baltusia, both diplomatically and economically for years. I think Vice President Sweetwater did an excellent job in handling the situation.

How have you felt on the expulsion of far-left factions from the UDP?

Farnsworth: Now that I'm no longer in public office, I can safely say that I cannot thank Chairperson Hanson for his decision. It was a mistake for our party to have ever accepted the PLCA and a monumental weight has been lifted from my chest. Of course this means a split leftist vote, but if our party is more stable in the aftermath, that's all that matters.

You have children that are nearing the age to enter political office. Has any one of them expressed interest in such?

Funny that you asked that. My eldest, Robert, he's just three years shy of being able to run for Senate, but it seems that politicking runs in the family. He's chomping at the bits. While my first Presidency was one of being stonewalled by communists, it did however give me an excellent learning experience to pass to my children. And Robert definitely took that to heart.

Do you have any plans for retirement in the coming years, or the pursuing of another career?

Of course I'll retire. When that will be, I'm unsure of. So long as I'm spry and a well articulated speaker, I figure I'd last quite a bit, maybe even past the typical retirement age. As for another career, that's a mystery to me. Politics is all I've ever known. From being a member of the debate team during my years in college, to time interning for some political offices in Westbrook, I'd say I was just made to be a politician. So long story short, I don't think there's another career out there for me.

When asked about the possibility of running for Governor of his home state of Westbrook, the former President expressed interest at the idea, but was unsure of the success of such a notion, due to the recent split in leftist politics in the country.

Sage Kinney Say the UDP leaders are unnacceptables.

I'm so tired to heard criticism for a party who has committted no wrong. We had two minister in the first government, and Sarah-Rafael did a great job, but no one in the medias or in the UDP ever mention the work of Sarah-Rafael, as Secretary of Food and Agriculture, She had to do heavy work, in order to increase the quality of our soil, also mandatory biological agriculture mean someone had to find alternative to help the farmer keep their production. Of course, doing this was Sarah-Rafael. She even told me, she suffered from lack of sleep during those years because of her job, yet the Social liberals would never look at her.

Maya Darklight is the great injustice we are still suffering, She was raped, she was forced to commit crimes, she lost her daughter, she wrong got convicted of murder, and the UDP took profit of this occasion to ban us. The former president never even spoke to Maya Darklight, before or after her conviction. This just tell us how much the liberals hate us for having the words communist in our name. By Saskia, I ask the president to show us our wrong move the communists wrong willingly. What we gave taxes cut to cooperatives ? We tried to legalize consensual-incest ? We have an escort services ? Some of us are in polygamic marriage defined by solid contracts ? I'm tend to believe that the social liberals are just working for the republican right now. Keep the left divided and allow the republican to cut healthcare fundings, because the army is obviously the most important priority, even we are not at war with anyone.

Sage Kinney

Asked by the journalist if Sage Kinney or a PLCA would support a UDP government without being given any seats, the PLCA speaker said that was a stupid question.

Republican will like this, because our members, by a vast majority will vote no. And at PLCA, democracy is an important value. We do not censor our members. All decisions are voted and adopted by majority before being signed by the chef. There is no way they will accept a UDP government that give nothing to the left. We have two choice, etheir we find a way to negociate, etheir the republican will have power for a long moment.

Also, I will had that if the moderates where treated the same way the communists where, it would not be accepted.

Sage Kinney comment on the declaration of the world congress president.

In Baltusia, nothing justify thievery, not even your children lives.

Sage Kinney

Sage Kinney, While close to give birth to her 2nd child, said that Baltusia justice is far too strick. Rape Victims get convicted of the crimes that their aggressor forced them to do. A month ago, the president of the world congress said too many things where ignored in the trials against Maya Darklight. That the Authorities did not take into account everything the women suffered before being accused.

She was raped constantly, She was forced to commit crimes because she was afraid for the security of her daughter, She was forced to give birth without any medical assistance, She fell into a deep and dark depression, she lost her daughter. Patrick was not even questioned by the agents. It seem she was just a prize, not an human to the Baltusia Authorities. I am not certain that if the accuse was a member of the social liberals, the moderates or a conservative, she would have received the same treatment. right now, it seem that in Baltusia, nothing can forgive a crime, not even your children being threatened, not even a gun being pointed at your head. Make no mistake, the others parties are not more pure then us, they just keep their secrets in the dark. And we believe that no secret must kept from the population.

I Think the president of the World Congress just recognize that we have a judicial problem in Baltusia.

Secretary of States: Voter Fraud Could Have Been Committed in Favor of Communist
Image
Fredrick Jones (R-SA) and Joe Murray (D-WB) reveal their findings of possible voter fraud committed in favor of communist candidates.

The Secretary of State for Westbrook, New Egelion, and Santiago held a joint press conference today to announce findings that were found upon the review of the Election of 4476. Joe Murray (D-WB), Jennifer Paulson (R-NE) and Fredrick Jones (R-SA) all found evidence of possible voter fraud committed in favor of Communist Presidential candidate Sage Kinney during the 4476 Presidential Election and could have also been committed in favor of Communist Senators and Representatives. It has been speculated that Sage Kinney had received illegal votes on Election Night after voters failed to turn out for her party but she managed to make it into the second round of the Presidential Race.

Joe Murray on Voter Fraud in Election of 4476
"Upon review of the voting records from the 4476 election in the State of Westbrook I found several irregularities that point to voter fraud having been committed. In almost every case those votes were cast for communist candidates. Upon finding these irregularities I wanted to know if this was a issue solely in Westbrook or if it had been a nation wide problem. As it turns out my colleagues Secretary Paulson and Secretary Jones found similar irregularities for votes that had been cast for communist candidates. All of the facts are not out as of right now, but what we do know is that in most cases the single common factor on all ballots is that they were cast for Communist Sage Kinney on the Presidental Ballot.

I want to be perfectly clear here, we are not accusing the Baltusian Communist Association of voter fraud but we are saying that voter fraud may have, and there is a sufficent enough evidence to support that it was, committed and the common factor in almost every case was the ballots favored communist.


Spokespersons from the BCA were not immediately available for comment.

Maxim Freemoon, say communists must be whiter then white

The communists must be whiter then white, we can't afford to fraud, beside you would know if we did it.


Maxim Freemoon, a speaker of the PLCA and formerly the fifth wife of Aloy-sophie Darklight, said it was impossible that her party committed voted fraud during the election. She said the communist can't afford to make the same moves the other parties are allowed.

The more left-wing you are, the more white you must be. There is not way we committed voter fraud. We don't have this luxury. Beside, if we ever decided to commit that, you would know that with my skills in computers programs and hacking, there would not way we would have a majority republican government, I'm just too good.


The PLCA speaker was asked if she would have children, like the other wives of Aloy had.

I can't have child and I don't want to have child. I hate kids. And no, Sabrina does not have child and she don't want any child etheir. I know Ophelia and Riley both have 1 kid, but I don't think they want more, right now, its just Sage who seem to want children like she do. Aloy has no problem with this. As he said before he Married anyone of us, we do what we want with our bodies.

Right now, I can confirm you, we are requesting the permission to bury Caia Darklight, like she deserve to be, so that her spirit find peace.

Howell: Baltusia Has an Unwavering Commitment to Justice

Image

President Wallace Howell called a press conference today to address recent comments by World Congress President Ibrahim El Salefi on the Maya Darklight case. This marks the first time that President Howell has publicly referenced the case during his presidency.

Our administration has been made aware of President El Salefi's concerns about how our justice system has handled a certain high-profile case. While I will refrain from commenting on the specifics of this case, I do wish to assuage any concerns our new World Congress president has about Baltusia's justice system. One of the priorities of Baltusian governments, both United Democratic and Republican, over the last 15 years, has been strengthening the esteem and fairness of our justice system. Everyone has the right to a fair trial by a jury of their peers. Baltusia has an unwavering commitment to justice and an unwavering commitment to the rule of law. Sometimes legal cases are difficult and emotionally harrowing for those involved and the country alike, but the rule of law, especially when it comes to the safety and security of Baltusians, is paramount.


These comments come after pressure from some of the younger members of Howell's caucus over the last 24 hours.

One such representative, Bobby Webster, had this to say:

"The president did the right thing today. I know he wants to be Mr. Peacemaker in D.D. and he's always wanted to stay far away from the Darklight case, but we can't let Baltusia's reputation be besmirched like this on the public stage."

More longstanding allies of President Howell, however, expressed some reservations.

"The president shouldn't be so worried about his PR with the World Congress," said Ronald Wilson. "He has a job to do right here in Baltusia. So far, remaining above the fray has produced stability in this country. We don't need another partisan."

Howell's comments have also prompted rumors among his caucus that he does not intend to run for a third term in 4480.

"He's always been very measured in his approach, careful to think about the long-term. He's been more vocal on political matters lately, which makes me think something has drastically changed."

When asked about this, Howell's office could not be reached for comment.

Aloy-Sophie Darklight say he is ready for the prosecution of Polygamie

They can show us their fake morality all they want, we are ready.


Aloy-Sophie Darklight was commenting the introduction of the Aloy-Sophie Darklight Act, which seem to command the state to prosecute polygamists, men who are married to multiple like him, and in the case of the PLCA, Woman who are married with men. The leader of the PLCA was especially annoyed by the introduction of the bill.

That's a bill targetting me, and trying to tell who I have the right to sleep with. Blaxe Lexington has no place in my bedroom. Its annoying, but we are ready. my Marriage with Sage with just solid. Ophelia and Riley have a legal marriage together. And its going to be hard to accuse Sabrina or Maxim of Polygamy, I don't have any children with them. I Sage has two and wants more, I got 1 with Ophelia and Riley, but that is all. Now the only thing that will remain to not have a polygamous lifestyle is for us to lives in seperate houses, and I think this is not much of a problem. I'm not the only affected by this bill, I know that Madison Haley has relations with 2 or 3 mens, but what is she going to do ? Seem that Blaxe Lexington is going to tell her, Marry one, dumb the others. I feel this is betreyal of the electors who voted moderates because think the moderates where progressive, and now the moderates are trying to tell what's a good relation.

Sage Kinney Present her 2nd child

Today, Sage Kinney, decided to Present her 2nd Child to the media, a girl she decided to name Melody Kinney Darklight, 1 years ago present, she had present her boy, Leon Kinney-Darklight. She also announce that she may consider a 2nd run as a presidential candidate, but she is not certain.

It will depend on my healthcare and if life does not decided to burden me with even more pregnancies. I am expecting a third pregnancy very soon. I just know it. No, I am not pregnant, but let's just say I am certain it will come soon enough. I'll make a decision next years, on if I should run a 2nd time as a presidential candidate, or if I should give the chance to a younger blood who is not wrapped in any political scandal at all. Its not like the Darklight case is going to go away by itself. Its still dividing the left, and the elections show us that if we ever want to government, we'll need to reunite all the left-wing parties. This is Vital, right now the republican have been to impose heavy cut on the healthcare system in order to fund some taxes cut, we don't believe that is fair. Sooner or Later, the UDP will face a choice, one is to reunite the left and repair the old wounds, the other is not reunite and leave the republican administration in place.
Sage Kinney

Questioned on her sexual life, Sage Kinney refused to answer and just told the journalist to go away.

my sex life is my sex life. Go away
Sage Kinney

UPDATE : Rumor of libertarian shift, Maxim Freemoon say the government is useless in morality anyway.

Maxim freemoon made a comment that started the rumors, that the PLCA would take a libertarian stance. She apparently said that the government was pretty much useless in morals field.

You know, I think you party got it wrong, the government is just useless when it come to morality, So what if hosian think Adultery is immoral, that's their position, we are fine with adultery and we tend to view it as legal. so what is the point of having the government telling us that Adultery is Legal, none at all. there is no point to this stance.

April 4479

Renowned novelist proposes "United States of Bakalilo"

Image

One of Baltusia's most famous daughters, the 89 year old best-selling, prize-winning historical novelist Phoebe Rivers, has published a pamphlet entitled Making the Case for a United States of Bakalilio, calling for the north Seleyan nations of Baltusia, Kalistan, Likatonia and Lodamun to unite together to form a single federation.

The name "Bakalilo" is an acronym of the first two letters of the names of each country (ie. BAltusia, KAlistan,LIkatonia, LOdamun).

In her pamphlet, Rivers argues the "Four Nations" (as she calls them) share a unique cultural, political and historical heritage, particularly with their shared use of the Luthori (OOC: English) language and their geographical location in northern Seleya. She also argues that with the emergence of the Canrille Federation in northern Seleya, it is important for the north Seleyan Luthori-speaking nations to band together in order to project greater collective influence and ensure they do not fall behind.
