SCHETYNA = HITLER?
The Nazis claiemed that Jews spread lice and various diseases, therefore it was in the interest of public health and hygiene to eliminate them.
Now Schetyna is using the same tactic by prcolaiming and untruth -- that PiS want to take Poland out of the EU, so they must march in May in protest. First you accuse your foe of some total rubbish to justify your counteraction.

Re rule of law, we know how Schetyna & Co. defines it. He wants to disband the CBA. Here is one of the reasons why: CBA are now investigating Tusk-era treasury min. Aleksander Grad who gave his 25-percent stake in the MGGP company to his wife Małgorzata. Under PO, the company, which according to its website deals in engineering and geo-information services, won several lucrative contracts. One deal was signed for some PLN 24.8 million. MGGP can be considered a family business because Małgorzata Grad is on the company's board and the couple's son Paweł is the deputy chairman of the company.

Schetyna also wnats to dissolve IPN. Again it's no wonder -- no other party now in parliament has so many MPs with politically suspect PRL-era episodes.

Sorry about that. As you know I am the world's No. 1 computer/web dunce and consummate anti-gadgetarian. I was answering another poster and my reply got tacked on to my longish post (the one whose duplicate you were anrgy about). I thought I had failed to hit the POST button for the long post (I was doing many other things in the menatime and thought I had failed to send it) so I did and it turned out to have already been posted.

Now that we're done with that,do you truly believe the story-book verison of "the new democratic Poland" -- the way GW has traditonally presented it?

It was shadowy in the sense that it's post-truth "narration" pulled the wool over most people's eyes. The story-book version was that "for the first time workers and the intelligentsia joined forces to peacefully overthrow a Soviet-imposed regime." That version was eagerly parroted by mainstream Western pundits, media and politicians because it served those foreign interest groups as well as the EU, a hub of the great corporate mafia. They therefore did not bother to show that the roundtable deal was struck by largely KPP/PZPR-linked or influenced "dissidents", the PZPR ex-ruling establishment and those Solidarity activists willing to play ball with the new "system". They were supported by legions of SB snitches in the media, academia and entertainment industry. Totally ignored until recently was the widespread injustice of victimiser progress and prosperity as opposed to victim poverty and misery as well as the growth of economically depressed areas where Balcereite "privatisation" detsroyed local employers. There was no thought to building an indigenous entrepreneurial class but rather the economy was placed at the service of foreign interest groups. Naturally the minority benefactors were full of praise for "the new democratic Poland". "Be grateful to us," they seeemed to be saying. "The shops are now bursting at the seams with once hard-to-find goods." They failed to explain how the unemployed, wofeully underpaid and pensioners could afforfd them. "You now have the freedom to travel and to keep your passport at home," the propagandists of what was passed off as III RP trumpeted. They failed to add: "To travel to a street-sweeping job in Glasgow or a nanny post in Berlin." No wonder the clique, the elite, the system, the haves, the victors of transformation, whatever are shaking in their boots and clamoring for a return of their beloved comfy and cushy status quo. Contrary to the lessons of history since time immemorial, these supposedly educated elites somehow actually believe they and they alone are predestined to eternally be the "nachapani", whilst the majority of the nation should know its place and resign itself to "wyjebani" status. No wonder they seeth with hatred and impotent rage when they see the good-change government gradually introducing a more eqjuitable state of affairs which also benefits "the salt of the earth".

So tragic that a parliamentary system worked to entrench the dominance of a post-commie clique that milked the naiton for what it was worth and ensured the good life for no more than one-fourth of the counttry, keeping the rest in want and poverty.The majority faced unemployment, dead-end jobs or the prospect of washing dishes in a British pub or German restaurnat. No wonder the losers' camp want to restore the status quo. But time never stands still. The good.change government marches on leaving the nitpickers and grumblers to stew in their own frustation.

Was Piłsudski a patriot or traitor? Yes, he betrayed the troublemakers destroying the republic -- the parliamentary bribe-takers and brawlers (yes, police had to be called in to restore order!), German fifth column, red Jewish fifth column (KPP), Ukrainian terrorists, Soviet spies) -- it was a real mess! Incessant squabbling led to the rise and fall of 13 cabinets between 1918 and 1926! On rare occasions when the façade of democracy is being used to cover up corruption and other public misdeeds, radical measures may be justified!

Because you have only read about all this, I was there. There was electricity in the air and most everybody was sure that the parliamentary putsch would turn into an armed one. Olszewski in fact did step down, but who knows if that was the right thing to do. Was Piłsudski supposed to watch run-away Sejmocracy destroy Poland in the 1920s? He had to stage what in terms of fatalities turned out to be a farily mild coup, but he saved the country. Perhaps enforcing Olszewski's open-files campaign would have saved Poland from the misrule, misapprorpriation and downright theft of the neo-commies and the roundtable clique in general.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Sure -- several months into his term a brand-new consitution!? Miller's and Kwaśniewski's neo-commies took their sweet old time to introduce a new constitution, didn't they.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Olszewski fell mainly becuase the SB snitchers' club were shaking in their boots that their dirty deeds would get exposed. Wałęsa & Co, weren't worried about the economy or the nation but only about the prospect of losing the perks, prestige and privileges of power and maybe even getting penalised in some way. All the other considerations were marginal -- that was the crux and moving force of the whole parliamentary PUTSCH (and you can deny it all you want, but under the cirucmstances it was a true coup or putsch)!

Realpolitik taken to the extreme -- sign a pact with the devil himself if only to stay in POWER!

But that was precisely the key difference between him and the Balcerowicz whose claim to fame was the unbridled destruction/sell-off of Polish assets. The victims of large-scale unemployment were not his problem. By contrast, Olszewski's concern was to find alternative employment for those dislodged from their previous livelihood.

You probably don't know what a folkloric wydmuszka is? It is an egg from which the contents are blown out through pin-holes at top and bottom. Then the egg is painted and hung up on pussywillows as an Easter decoration or on an evergreen for Chrsitmas.

That name was given to much of Balcer-style "privatisation". Under the cover of night a factory was stripped of its contents (machinery, stock, etc.) and the worthless shell was slated for demolition or simply abandoned. Incidentally, the removed equiment was not sold to enrich the state budget but kind of evaporated or vanished to the benefit of clique members.

WRONG! What colour is something in Polish is Jakiego koloru jest... (literally: of what colour is....). Secondly , jakiś chleb = some kind of bread, jaki chleb? = what kind of bread?

Who knows what Soviet-tainted generals are really after in NATO. Their background would make them quite likely Putinesque agents of influence. If they carried out warfare against their own nation during martial law for 30 pieces of siłlver, who knows who is now lining their pockets. National security is too sensitive a field to let such stooges anywhere near command posts in NATO.

News / Poland's post-election political scene [4080]


Not when they joieed, but whom they served and what they did, i.a. during martial law. The III RP smokescreen was so cleverly consrtucted by the post-commie clique that even Lech Kacyzński could have been fooled and may have rewarded some ex-PZPR stooge who slipped under the wire. In fact, until quite recently, many Poles did not realise that III RP was a façade to provide safe haven and a career bandwagon for every manner of collaborator, traitor and Soviet agent of inlfuence. That only proves that Poland has paid and will continiue to suffer for Wałęsa's 1992 folly that put paid to any honest attempt at de-communisation.

Experiecned Soviet-trained generals that served the thankfully now defunct Soviet-imposed regime may be experienced, but it's the wrong type of experience for a free country. They took their cues from the Soviet-imposed PZPR, won their stripes persecuting Solidarity durign martial law and were actually rewarded for their crimes with promotions and disitnctions by the snitcher-presidents you admire so much -- Kwaśniewski (TW Olek) and Komorowski (TW Litwin).

Too bad you are using outdated or fallacious data. The latest CBOS poll in April showed support for the following as:
Duda 63%
Szydło 52%
Kukiz 50%
Ziobro 43%
Morawiecki 40%.
Macierewicz has fared far worse with 25%. That is even less support than the highly unpopular opposition figures Schetyna and Petru, backed by a mere 30% and 26% respectively.

A close runner-up was Jan Olszewski. Had Wałęsa and fellow-snitches not carried out their 1992 parliamentary putsch, all the police-file nonsense would have long since been taken care of. The way the more intelligent ex-Soviet satellites did!

Slurs, shmurs! Do you PC types really go in for all that 1984-style free-speech muzzling and lack a sense of humour the way the femi-fascists do?

Dunno about Brits, but Americans say "we yanks", and blacks call each other "you dumb N-word" (and it rhymes with chigger). PolAms soemtimes say "we Pollacks" or "don't be such a dumb Pollack". Do Brits ever say "we pommies" or "you dumb limey" or are they too uptight for that? Jews are very clannish and rarely let their hair down in front of goyim so dunno if they ever call one another "you dumb kike". Anyway, chill out, loossen up and f---- PC!

I hope you watched the circus-like buffoonery of Tusk's farcical homecoming on the telly or maybe actually went out to greet him in person.
