OK, going to my first Greens local branch meeting tonight - Andrew Bolt suggests they are an evil cult and stuff, so if I come back seemingly deranged.. uh.. moreso, then let me know.
Were there earnest beady and glasses types with leather patches on their elbows?
I have freaky ex cross armed maoists at my labor meeting held in a place that allows the most smoking anywhere on the planet. At least you wouldn't have to worry about lung disease at a Greens meeting - unless you were passing around a doob or something.
It was good, everyone had dreadlocks, and no one had washed themselves this year.
Some of the issues raised:
Children, how can we give them more recreational drugs.
Nuclear power, how we can further generate false facts about Chernobyl, and the number of fatalities was decided by throwing a dart at the dart board and multiplying the score by 1,000
How to further brainwash teachers into brainwashing students to be like us.
Islamic extremism, and how it relates to the hugging of trees.
How to convince more Native Australians that they were stolen.
How to destroy all business in Australia with a cunning plan involving a fair rate of tax.
Oil, and reasons why it can't be magically created by wonderous urchins under the Earth.
....
Actually, earnest beady and glasses types with leather patches on their elbows.
Mostly committee stuff, fundraising issues, couple of local environmental issues, etc.
They creep me out, especially the way they swarm around union meetings.
They might be a tiny bit like the Greens..
...if you take away any actual environmental bits, anything to do with peace(esp. protesting), anything to do with thinking democracy is a good idea, and a great big wad of logic.

Poor old Bolty. I bet he would have much preferred some of the other stuff.
Especially if they were toking on the herb.
Someone from Socialist Alliance explained in detail to me why you shouldn't vote green. All seems a bit vague and waffling now...
*shudder*
Yes don't vote Greens, but buy GreenLeft Weekly.

Most Greens have smoked a doob before, but they didn't exhale.
