Celebrating MPs who degrade women, because YOU put THEM there!
Only in chauvinistic Bodohland.
This must be a sign of the times. Women are fair game for all kinds of jokes, especially those that go below the belt.
There is clear and present evidence that BN parliamentarians have lost their sense of decency in the august house. Dirty jokes are no longer a dirty word, and women in BN don't count, do they?
With nary a whimper of protest from any female BN representatives in attendance (see, they even silently agree that their opinions don't matter in the chauvinistic world of Barisan Nasional) ... well, I just don't know anymore. Do you?
Have a look at the following piece of news.
On Wednesday morning, the debate turned into a ruckus when the Parliament House roof sprang leaks in several parts during a downpour.
In the heat of the debate and shouts over the "leaky" Parliament House, which had undergone an RM80 million renovation about two years ago, one phrase went unnoticed.
Fong Po Kuan (DAP-Batu Gajah) then reviewed the video recording of the proceedings and felt humiliated. She then filed a motion this morning to refer the two BN MPs (one for making the sexist remarks and the other for supporting the remarks) - Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin (BN-Kinabatangan) and Datuk Mohd Said Yusof (BN-Jasin) - to the committee.
The recording exposed Bung as saying: "Mana bocor, Batu Gajah pun tiap-tiap bulan pun bocor juga." ("Where is the leak? Batu Gajah MP also leaks every month.")
Do you think Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin is witty and funny?
What about his friend "close one eye" MP Datuk Mohd Said Yusof from Jasin, who echoed his support? Are these wonderful examples of our Yang Berhormats from Barisan Nasional?
And look. There's more!
When a motion to refer the 2 MPs to the Parliamentary Rights and Privileges Committee was rejected by the Dewan Rakyat Speaker, Tan Sri Ramli Ngah Talib, BN MPs see it fit to celebrate with a round of table-thumping and cheers.
Unbelievable, you say? You better believe it! This is the new era of Wawasan 2020 under the leadership of Pak Lah.
Expect more to come your way, after the next general election, going by the kind of people Barisan Nasional sees fit to represent your interests.
These BN wakil rakyats will continue to SHOCK and AWE you with amazing stuff coming from their uncouth tongues and minds.
That's right. Do like the female BN representatives do in such situations.
Take whatever is dished out to you by the chauvinistic guys lying down because you people VOTED them in, didn't you?
Hahaha - NOT!

Once upon a time I felt it was amusing seeing grown men arguing like little kids in the parliament.
Now it seems, it is just full of chauvinistic, lame and unintelligent chatter.
Why are our politicians like that?
Do we need so many of them in a room so that they can waste the people's time and money by making silly quotations?
Haihhh...
Real classy jerks we got. This I believe is the major difference between electing turds from the street and a civilized gentlemen.
Actual civilized gentlemen would maintain some class in the proceedings by dragging the ruffians outside dip them in tar. We need some damn standards!
hmmm... this fiasco is really making waves in the blogosphere...
how come such ppl can just say whatever they want and walk free? by the way, have you heard of a student in UiTM that may be kicked out from his uni becos of his blog?
Their constituency voters should be ashamed for putting them in parliament. But if the PM is not ashamed, who cares. NST quoted Minister in the PM's Dept Nazri Aziz having said "did not find the choice of words used by both to be offensive." (unquote). What is the point for launching a publication on integrity when the so-called "August House" don't even practise it.
Double-standards. The responses from top BN leaders are telling. You think they care for ethics, morals, decency and integrity? These are the type of leaders you will be casting votes for again the next round. Think again. Especially women voters.
AM,
Would you consider coming for the Blogger's gathering? I believe you didn't have any paranoia or phobias. I thought it would be good place and timing for a group of cyberpals to gather and chat. I am going and I hope you would reconsider.
Nazli: You're right. Our ruling party seems obsessed with quantity rather than quality in this aspect.
Norman: We can have all kinds of standards but ultimately, what good will it do to a bunch of idiots who don't understand the meaning of "decency"?
Zewt: No. I have no clue because I guess I was too busy to surf the Net lately. What about it?
Mave: I'm not able to attend the Bloggers' meeting because I'm not able to get away to KL from where I am now. Certainly, it would be wonderful if I can meet you in person one day. I'm also your fan leh! :-)
NO, AM: I checked with my friends and NONE voted these monkeys in 2004GE.
Maybe the Commies and phantoms did?
AM2: Your resp[onse to mave refers -- if only 3 outa four attend, how can that be? PERSUADE lust: I give you 1/2signed kopi and unsigned tehtarik afterword!:):)
Just dropping by to wish you Happy Mother's Day :)
Dear Desi, bet you got plenty of free "tariks" today, huh? Did your legs hurt?? heheh ;-)
Twisted heels: Thank you, thank you!! I'm smiling now because you're so sweet! :-) :-)
AM,
