God has spoken Jim

by Whaleoil on September 5, 2010

If there was ever a reason needed why a triple dipper shouldn’t be the Mayor of Christchurch it is the earthquake. Imagine if this had happened when Jim Anderton was wearing his MP for Wigram hat on a tuesday in Wellington. With the airport closed and all access shut down his citizens would have been without a leader.

Cities need mayors to concentrate on being mayor not trying to fill their pockets with additional taxpayer or ratepayer loot.

Contrary to many a wag suggesting that the earthquake was caused by $1.7 billion of taxpayers cash landing in South Canterbury, it was in fact God, speaking to Jim Anderton to tell him to quit. He said it would take an earthquake for him to lose, and so god spoke and delivered as a clear a message as possible for a 70 year old dodderer to understand.

Time to quit Jim, God has spoken.

    Yes but the Socialist Republic of Christchurch is, nominally at least, a democracy (until Jim gets there, anyway). That means that although He has made His political preference well known, His is still only one vote.

    I’m sure there’s something funny in there about an earthquake being covered by the EFA, but looking at the pics on Stuff I’m all out of funny lines.

    His sense off entitlement would expect a helicopter to be provided by someone else, of course.

    Hey Cameron

    Check the standard, someone doctored the tape.

    Did you check your source? If you look at the video and at Dimpost then you will see that Anderton was talking about leaving the Labour party because of Douglas, not about the Mayoral campaign. Someone has done a cut and paste job on it and taken his comment totally out of context.

    Either you have been suckered or you knew.

    Either way you should apologise.

    Are you going to?

      Apologise for what?

      Here is the time line. Anderton goes on CTV. Makes all sorts of comments. Earthquake hits Saturday. Newstalkzb asks him on Sunday about EQ comments, he makes a joke about it, doesn’t correct perception of newstalkZB, NZHerald publishes from NewstalkZB report, Farrar publishes from Herald, i go looking for video, find it, see what he was talking about, re-check Zb and see Jim played it up, figure I’ll make the video fit jim’s story….Fuck him and you and those cunts at the The Standard.

      no conspiracy, no lines, no feeds just chaos and mayhem at work.

      I doctored the tape idiot, and I did it crap on purpose…If I wanted to it could have been seamless.

  • blackpaul

    So you did the edit Cameron?

  • blackpaul

    Sorry, I see you already answered that :)

  • pwebb

    Well then Cameron you have lied. You said:

    He said it would take an earth quake for him to lose

    when it appears that you knew he did not say that. So we the blogging public of New Zealand cannot believe anything you say?

    • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

      those aren’t my words you dumb-ass, they are the herald’s. (and they have now deleted them)

      You really are fucking stupid aren’t you.

      I also don’t care what you or anyone else thinks.

      • blackpaul

        Do you think they might have deleted it because they realised that he never said it?

  • pwebb

    But they are your words. You posted a link to them. Check out above.

    You said he said “it would take an earthquake for him to lose”. The Herald article that you linked to does not have this text in it.

    So you could apologise for getting it wrong or insist that you are right and watch many bloggers tear this insistence to shreds.

    What do you choose Cameron?

    • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

      The herald has edited their page.

      the original Herald article said;

      Christchurch mayoral aspirant Jim Anderton told CTV on Friday that it would take an earthquake for him to lose the election race against incumbent mayor Bob Parker

      I won’t apologise, I simply made a video to fit the story. I choose chaos and mayhem.

      The timeline shows that the video was released AFTER everyone else reported it. Go pick on the real ones at fault for using bewildered Jim’s words against him. I simply satirised it. The fact that bewildered Jim didn’t correct newstalk….I mean wtf….he made a joke of it….shows that he thought he would capitalise on it. Well it bit him on the arse.

      .

      • pwebb

        Good try Cameron.

        So it is not you, all that you did was make a video that matched a Herald headline, a headline that you knew was wrong.

        Did you actually look at the whole video? Did you see that Anderton was talking about his experience in the 4th Labour Government and how he rebelled against Douglas. Did you then cut it and splice it amongst other tape that made it look like he was talking about the current Mayoral campaign even though you knew he was talking about something else?

        So you knew the story was wrong but then made a video to fit the wrong story that you knew of?

        And you say that you did not report it? All that you did was … I am not sure.

        If you were a catholic I would suggest that you go to confession as soon as possible …

          Ever heard of satire you humourless fuck?

        • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

          I’m not media, I’m a satirist, a commentator, what ever i like….I answer to no-one, if Bewildered Jim has a complaint then let him sort it out…personally I couldn’t care a toss about him, his politics or his campaign.

          You pinkos seems ever so slow to work out how social media works.

          • pwebb

            So do you say things even though you know they are not true?

          • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

            It’s politics….true is just a version, harden up, you got pwnd

          • blackpaul

            So using your own words from this page,:

            Cameron Slater says “Farrar has no cunts, so I fuck him in his arse”

            Excuse the mental imagery, but is that just a version of your words? You wrote them all.

          • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

            All true if you believe the leftwing paid lap-bloggers

          • blackpaul

            Haha, indeed. But is it just another version of what you wrote or is it bullshit? I’d say it’s bullshit.

  • gaskranken

    Semantics people, It would have taken far less than an earthquake for the senile old fucker to lose to Bob but now that nature has stepped in and given us a wee taste of what is possible it doesn’t matter how it’s cut Jim the red trougher’s electoral chances are well and truly pasted.

    The NZICA president, Dinu Harry, repeated the story about Jim Anderton saying it’d take an earthquake to stop him winning – to several hundred guests at the NZICA New Members & Executive Insight Awards Ceremony tonight.

    Does Mr Harry owe Mr Anderton an apology too, then?

    • blackpaul

      If he knew it wasn’t true, yes of course.

        This is now what you call an urban legend…bless

        Get over yourselves and your faux outrage

        • blackpaul

          What’s the difference between an urban legend and a rumour?

          I’d say this is just a rumour.

          Not outraged btw Cam, just interested. I like seeing how these things develop. Makes it more interesting when you know who said what and when.

          I’m mostly interested in what YOU think happened here really.

  • pwebb

    This isn’t an urban legend. It is a lie.

    From now on I will not believe anything that Cameron says unless I have three sources of verification.

    • http://whaleoil.gotcha.co.nz Whaleoil

      Oh dry your eyes, as if you ever believed anything from me anyway. I’m not a news source.

      the lie was started by NewstalkZb, then perpetrated by NZ Herald and confirmed by Bewildered Jim himself….I just made a video of it. Now fuck off.

  • sideshowbob

    Paul Henry just referred to you as “that space cadet Cameron Slater” on the Breakfast show, with respect to the doctored video clip. I guess any publicity is good publicity…? If you’re a space cadet what does that make him, the Admiral of the Fleet?
