    Thanks for the offer Trane, but I think the Partai Sekular is a non-starter. :)

    PD..

    What an exposition of childish democracy….

    I think it’s an absolute disgrace, it makes Indonesian the laughing stock of the world, putting up stupid childish posters like these.

    “Thanks for the offer Trane, but I think the Partai Sekular is a non-starter. :)

    Right, but how’s Partai Pluralisme Populer for starters? (PPP, oh shoot!)
    Partai Amanat Harapan? (PARAH!, dammit!)
    Partai Keadilan Pelawak? (hm..)

    This needs some work before the next election.
