Labour over-playing their hand

Labour are showing what a bunch of heart-less c**ts they really are.

The left pretends to be compassionate but they aren’t. I should know, of all the abusive and disgusting comments about my own mental health, they have all come from leftists. The offers of help, assistance, support and prayers have almost all come from the right, with a couple of exceptions.

Now as the heat comes on and Labour’s caucus comes under pressure they are resorting to type. Nasty, vindicitive and spiteful.

Helen Clark showed what a powerful leader of Labour she was by keeping a lid on all of this for 15 years. Phil Goff shows his inept-ness by now overplaying his hand.

Labour leader Phil Goff says he thinks errant MP Chris Carter is “unwell” and should have taken former prime minister Helen Clark’s advice to move on if his heart wasn’t in his job.

This is of course right up there with the constant taunts to Nick Smith about his mental health and needling at Chris Finlayson about his homo-sexuality. It reveals the previously hidden dark side of Labour.

They are trying to discount what Chris Carter has to say about Phil Goff’s incompetence by smearing him with mental health issues. let’s get something straight here and now, they are all politicians and therefore by definition prone to narcissistic tendencies anyhow. Heap on top of that big dollops of little man syndrome, and fawning, felching staffers and it is little wonder they aren’t all mad.

All Labour is risking now is making a martyr of Chris Carter. All that is revealed now is how impotent Labour and Goff really are.

Quite simply it doesn’t matter if Chris Carter is mad as a march hare, he is the duly elected MP of Te Atatu and can sit there on his tod till the next election and there isn’t a damn thing they can do about it. In fact the longer he sits there thumbing his nose at Phil Goff the better as far as National are concerned. It just proves the point that Phil Goff is a light-weight and incapable of winning raffle let alone an election.

The single biggest problem that Labour faces is that their talent pool is as shallow as a bird-bath. In order for Clark to keep a lid on Labour, she had to recruit tossers, limp-wristed poofs and losers. They were no threat to her and now they are no threat to National. Labour’s next leader isn’t even remotely in sight, either in Caucus or on the horizon as a candidate.

Desperately though, they cling to the latest meme, that they can win in 2011 (just look at Kevin Rudd), this of course ignores the bleeding obvious no matter how much they get their lap-bloggers to write anonymous smears about John Key. Labour misses the point that like David Cun(t)liffe, Kevin Rudd was deeply despised by everyone but himself. John Key on the other hand cold step into the street and shoot an old lady in the back of the head in full view of TV cameras, have it screened on nationwide news at 6pm and still go up in the polls as the most popular post-war Prime Minister ever, including Helen Clark. Their meme is a colander, and hold as much water.

They are dreaming if they think they can win in 2011. They can’t win with Phil Goff and they can’t win with anyone else, and they know it. At least they have moved on from the old meme that the electorate was all horribly mistaken and they would wake up to their error just in time to return them to their rightful offices in the beehive. That was deluded, but the new theme of a miraculous Kevin Rudd style fall from grace for John Key is actually more deluded.

Labour are rooted for the foreseeable future.
