  Anyone watched V for Vendetta yet? Or is it banned in Singapore?
  
  I predict that Singapore is going down the slippery slope to end up like London in the movie.

  It's not really possible to regulate political activities on the Internet. At best, the Internet can be seen as an opportunity for political parties to make themselves heard and connected to the people. On the other hand, it's a double-edged sword that can just as easily hurt you as it can help.

  Bluddy Hell!
  
  The government themselves, SHOULD influence the outcome of their own blinking elections.
  
  Not the Internet, not any bluddy blog, or whatever.
  
  I mean, crap! If you treat your pet dog well, will it run away??? If you keep it well fed and groomed, will it wander off to a better owner??? HUH!?!?!
  
  Damn Dumb!
  
  If you have done well, people will naturally stand by you!!!
  
  CRAP!
