Ultimately he has a high school diploma. He might be smart but educated is a stretch. Not finishing even one of his courses says something if not about his intelligence than about his character.


That ultimately takes him out of the race then...A candidate with such tiny support has no chance without making a big presence.


Would matter if I followed it. I don't. So that is not the factor. The thing is all the other candidates are reported to do stuff (scandals, signatures etc.) Bosak nothing since the wedding. If it carries on people won't even know he's running let alone vote for him.

News / Why is Poland so hostile against Germany? Do they realize how their reparations rubbish damages relations? [510]

And let's be honest- they cooperate now because they have no real power and have mutual enemy. Once that is gone and different national interests come into play I doubt they will be so cooperative

We will see. He does have potential but it doesn't mean he's there yet

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]

I'm a leftie but it's hard to support the candidate when he starts brown nosing miners with how badly they were treated and how he would put embargo on Russian coal...

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]

Ok Torq- time for first celebration !!!
Kosiniak-Kamysz is the first candidate to give the voting commission the required support signatures.
It took them only 10 days and they managed to get 250 thousands signatures. Of course some will be invalid but they have plenty to spare. I must say I am pretty impressed. And they didn't even need the help of faithful taking signatures after mass :)

You have a point here. If they overdo it it will work against them. As usual. People won't dig into what is the matter, they will side with whomever they perceive as victim.

But it does seem that PiS is loosing it and have some internal problems. We will see.

Btw Spike- what are you making of Bosak's non existence at the moment?

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]

It seems the government realised that miners on the streets would be a nightmare right now. They will get 6% pay increase.

Why I think my opinions are more accurate.

There, fixed it for you. And as mentioned, you were wrong in your description.

Btw, do you think that one has to be a Catholic to be a Pole is a recent development? Considering you put a lot of emphasis on emigration (understandable when talking about recent events but not much more)

History / Saint Virgin Mary Queen of Poland crushes the Red Army [66]

You are clearly mixing both mine and Ziemowit's dosier with different posters. And based on that you dismiss our opinions. Your right but silly

History / Saint Virgin Mary Queen of Poland crushes the Red Army [66]


Both me and Ziemowit are native Poles and we seem to share that observation.


By that you introduce gradation and split. If someone is more Polish that suggests he is a better Pole.


Oh yes, they are really devoted. Most that I met are a really nice group. That is the kind of faith that really helps go through life I guess. Funny thing is I never met a hateful person among them and they were never preaching to anybody.

@Atch- I find your description as inaccurate as Torq's

History / Saint Virgin Mary Queen of Poland crushes the Red Army [66]


To me too. A little bit like a feel good distinction 'i'm the better/real Pole because... '
In reality it's projecting one's own feelings on general public IMO.
Quite awful towards those who do not match that criteria but who cares, right?

Law / Emigrating with child out of Poland [3]

The father is still a father (if named in the birth certificate). All cutody issues are dealt with by family court.
It is possible to stop someone LEGALLY taking kid out of the country.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]

Possible but there is no certanity they wouldn't get it with other candidates either. So it will be empty speculation anyway

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]


I'm not talking about extremism but having some (ANY) vision and values worth fighting for. PSL was alwasy mostly 'flaki z olejem'. That's why it's possible PSL will get the president, whose role it is to be that kind of balance between political power but I don't think they will ever become a major player.

While I'm no fan of Kidawa-Blońska I think you are letting your emotions get in the way. For now clearly Bosak is the weakest and Biedroń may have problems. Kidawa-Błońska clearly has less going against her than those two. Different thing is what she will do with that potential during campaign.

The big plus for Duda is his daughter- clearly smart and ambitious. But I don't think she wants to/ can get too involved.

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]


Yes but PSL was always too mild with no vision always the best coalition partner because they never really stood for anything.

Now I'm reading miners are planning a strike in Warsaw. Huge one apparently. They want 12% pay increase and want the government to stop companies from buying Russian coal AND to confiscate the one they already have...While quite interesting in itself I wonder what impact it will have on the campaign. As many commentators said- putting so much emphasis on Duda being PiS candidate will work against him during every scandal and argument involving PiS

News / Is the Polish-Polish war ending? Is the PiS-PiS war beginning? [14]

I was even wondering if it wasn't on purpose- now this will be main topic and takes attention from all the other things. Plus they can claim higher ground- look, we go after our people too...

He has a point there Torq.


So what is communist in him?

I wonder, because that accusation appeared few times, what is communist in Kosiniak-Kamysz?

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]


Possible. I'm surprised as they had the momentum going recently and it may turn out it will be all gone. As the saying goes 'Tak dobrze żarło i zdechło'

Law / Parental Child Abduction (Indian man married to Polish wife) [32]

Exactly. I think our new guest that is not really so new got a bit confused by the 'Belgian police' and 'Belgian court'... Didn't cross his mind one doesn't have to be a citizen to live somewhere

Law / Parental Child Abduction (Indian man married to Polish wife) [32]

And where does it say the father was Belgian?

Either parent can abduct a child and I already said I wouldn't be surprised if the mother did it first.

Try to get your bearings together, for now you just show yourself for a fool

Law / Parental Child Abduction (Indian man married to Polish wife) [32]


No, he is not. And even if he was that makes him a foreigner in Poland


Hmmm, and here all the legal world heard about parental abduction...They must all be wrong...

Get lost troll

Sie postać that yesterday. And if peiple will believe it's an opposition nasty play it will backfire


Again- dangerous play. Would have to be done veeeeery carefully

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]

I hope they won't overdo it. It can backfire.

It's a bit like that story with Duda's stalker- she posted again that they have an affair and called on the president to admit it. A lot of comments saying that it's the opposition stunt.... If that women won't shut up it may harm the other candidates (mostly Kidawa-Błońska I guess)

Maybe she's just week from starvation?
Besides it's not some good will-if that is the system they both chosen then it's his duty.
But you forget that there are women that work after getting married. As**s with attitude like yours are the reason why I would never become stay at home wife

News / Presidential elections 2020 - your opinions about campaign, candidates [2222]


The party might be huge but their electorate isn't. Simple as that. You treat your guy like some holy grail of a candidate and he simply isn't. He is good but not to that extend.

As to Kidawa-Błońska. One, she has PO electorate but even outside her party her negative electorate will be fighting with Duda's one. And hos one is not small either.

What really shocked me is that when Kaczynski started talking about Duda during convention he started with Smolensk. It's so many years, he already serves as a president and yet his description starts with that?

To add to it some commentators are worried that choosing two people to run the campain is a mistake that may cost them dearly. Especially since both of them are MEP's and because of that not in Warsaw so much.

BTW- it seems PiS takes Lichocka scandal a bit more seriously than Iron. The rumour is she was supposed to be the campaign spokesperson but now they will hide her till election

Law / Parental Child Abduction (Indian man married to Polish wife) [32]

Try Onet for example. They run the story up to date

Law / Parental Child Abduction (Indian man married to Polish wife) [32]

The police said they took the action but the child alert is 12 hour thing that is supposed to quickly reach the biggest number of people- that's why they started it in the morning when people start the day.

Quite frankly I find it all a bit dodgy... I wouldn't be surprised if the mother really took the child first. I feel sorry for the kid, that is all. No matter what really happened he will be the victim.

Always surprises me how quickly people can forget it's not about them.

Life / Would getting a Polish eagle tattoo be frowned upon?? [39]


BS. But even if true- there are mirrors. Although if we are talking ONLY about the tattoos at the small of the back (is that how it's called?) Then there is quite a large group that finds it attractive and as such I assume most girls that do it perceive it as adding to their attractiveness.

Let's be honest- while you guys moan about how you don't find it attractive do you really think those girls would look twice your way? Especially the one with the eagle?


You do realise one can say yes to the drink and no to the sex? Or did that concept didn't register in your generation? Plus a little update-if you think that women should exchange sex only for upkeep than you make them into wh**s . Including your wife.
