bmrusila inspiration is not repeating slogans on behalf of somebody else - seriously, I wouldnt be seen dead repeating somebody elses slogan propoganda.

No, you are the healthy one, the one marketing firms like. They know the majority of people have this tendency to fall for slogans / political idols. Me, I'm a freak :)

Correct me if I'm wrong that you support of Kostunica (excluding Kosovo) is based on a sense, rather than practical policy? I mean you support him in every other policy area, like what?

Mr noname speaking on behalf of other posters, he doesnt know. You vote for Kostunica, you get Nikolic. Its simple as that. I never wanted it that way either so don't blame me.

Yes people in Serbia being able to have jobs, being able to afford to eat is important to me. If thats not 'dignified' enough for you and your intellectual friends then too bad.

Hi bganon,

Why am I not surprised that you responded on my post? :)))) Well, since you have your on opinion please let me have my own as well. I appreciate and really do respect your opinion on the matter and that is why I never (at lest when it comes to political life in Serbia) reply to another poster trying to prove that poster wrong. We are all individuals with different point of views, we all differently perceive the things, the lives and the issues that affect our lives whether directly or indirectly.

You see, I am the one who wants and appreciate changes. When it comes to changes within the country, for better or for the worse, I am not the one who sticks to one political option. That fear of changing political options cost us many years of Milosevic rule. I believe in changes and if necessary frequent changes should and must be made. By far I was not satisfied with the work of ruling coalition, more precisely I got disappointed in DS members and their way of leading the country, especially their way of defending our sovereignty. Let’s be clear, I do appreciate all the effort that DS made before Kosovo UDI, I admire Vuk Jeremic and his enthusiasm, skills, intellectuality. Somehow, just before the UDI, during presidential elections I noticed changes in Tadic’s attitudes, changes in his rhetoric and most importantly I noticed changes in regard to Kosovo. He gave up on Kosovo already before the UDI. That is how I saw him then and as the days go by the disappointment became unbearable.

Yes, to be clear again, I see Mr Kostunica as the only politician with some principles left for the country. He is the one at the moment that I can trust the most in regard to every important issue that affect our country. I see him as the one who can keep the balance between our country interests and relations with the EU. The DS is not able to keep that balance since they easily succumb to pressure coming from outside and very often against country’s interests.

As for the slogans you asked if I was paid to make them. You made me smile, really. Paid by whom? Do you have any suggestions? Of course I ma not paid by anyone, slogans were just a moment of inspiration. Then again, you said that If I was not paid to make the slogans then it is not healthy. Maybe in your opinion is not healthy but I think that inspiration is very healthy. However, I appreciate your opinion and since you think is not healthy I ask you what specialist do you actually recommend me to check my health status?



For who- FOR INTACT SERBIA

For who- FOR KOSOVO AS A INSEPARABLE PART OF SERBIA

For who-FOR UNITED SERBIA

For who- FOR THE ONE WHO WILL DO HIS BEST TO DELIEVER ALL THESE

For who- FOR DR VOJISLAV KOSTUNICA :)

bganon, one thing I will make perfectly very clear to you is that I and several other posters here (such as bmrusila,marko,Princip etc.) are first and foremost DSS supporters not SRS.

The fact that NO party in Serbia has a clear majority to form a government on their own is regrettable to say the least which is why every party is forced to form some coalition with another. SRS might not be the best choice but it certainly beats the likes of LDP and LSV.

All you seem to care about is economy and nothing else. How shameful and disrespectful. Its sad to see some people have put materials before their own pride. Go ahead and vote for DS/G17 or whoever, their all the same little puppy begging for scraps unable to go out and find food for itself, I and the intellectuals of Serbia will vote for DSS because they have shown great results, sadly people are kept unaware of these. If they happen to enter in a coalition with SRS so be it as long as we are able to get the job done! And don't worry about the economy.

RE Marko "He has gone from the DOS to this in 9 short years."

Exactly the same can be said about DSS. They have come to a coalition with SRS...

I do not see any difference, any difference at all...

bganon

pre 16 godina

There was a time when commentators and members of DSS boasted of DSS having the greatest election potential. Now it has become a matter of 'principle' of being allied to one (oops that should be two) parties :)

bmrusila I disagree that saying that the economy will deteriorate is not going to lead anywhere. People that are thinking with their heads will know this to be true. Of course, as we have already spoken about, if we are disregarding this fact ready to sacrifice ourselves to regain Kosovo thats another question.

First it will have to be established that Radical party policy can win back Kosovo and how? Second of all it will take some new thinking for the radicals on the economy. I don't even know what SRS economic policy is, do you?

If SRS can do neither of these things, and I don't think they can, it is up to those of us who fear for the future to state this loud and clear. Nobody can say afterward that they were not informed that this could happen.

In any case you answered your own question. If some western investors withdraw from Serbia, or potentially decide to invest in neigbouring countries such as Croatia or Macedonia the effect is completely the same as if the Radicals cut ties themselves. We will economically stagnate. That isn't our 'friends' punishing us. That is the legacy of SRS and their formerly war like party, with their same old leader who is on trial at the Hague. If they had made more effort to reform a radical win might not have such a negative effect, but I see the same old faces.

I hope you are being paid to list those slogans because if you are doing it voluntarily, well I don't think its so healthy...

As far as DS collaborating with SPS is concerned. Who was surprised about that? Not me. Shows the quality of DS, or perhaps shows the quality of SPS who never did have any principles. The SPS that used to talk constantly about national issues in much the same way that SRS does today.
Imagine all those fools that voted for SPS thinking that they were principled during the 1990's.

The coalition between SPS and DS, if it happens, and I think it will happen at the end, will be one of the funniest moments in Serbian history...

Interesting things happening. Parties that were always coalition partner and had the same political views as DSS and DS and on the other side, SPS and SRS, are now making coalitions with their biggest enemies and rivals in the past...

Very interesting to follow...

bmrusila,

I have to agree with you. DS are leaving their options open - not a sign of confidence or principle. I also have huge respect for Vojislav Kostunica. He is not the most colourful person in the world but he respects the rule of law. I used to have some respect for Tadic but as time goes by he seems to be a man without principles or conviction. A DSS /SRS government might just be what Serbia needs.

Every single lie that the DS has invented about Kostunica has fallen back on their reputation.

Tadic will make a deal with the LDP or Milosevic's socialists, or anyone at all in order to form a weak banana republic parliamentary coalition. He has gone from the DOS to this in 9 short years. This is the government that the west will respect?

DS and DSS cannot make any coalition any longer, not after DS already made a pre-election coalition with Nendad Canak. I believe that the DS will also make post-election coalition with LDP which is logical since those two parties have the same aims at large.

Making such malicious remarks and insinuations that economy is going to deteriorate if DSS and radicals take the power, is not going to lead you anywhere. You use scaremongering strategy trying to turn electorate in your favour. Guess what DS ladies and gentlemen, you are not any better, except that you are better EU obedient. On what grounds DS make its opinion that DSS and SRS are going to discontinue economical relationship with the EU or economically powerful countries. That is absurd, perhaps the EU “democrats” and our true “friends” will discontinue ties on their own initiative, but certainly not DSS or radicals. But if that happens than there is nothing to regret because I don’t want to depend on someone’s mercy and blackmails. I want my country to be independent from Brussels and certainly want my people to feel free to cast votes for who ever they feel would be the right to lead the country without fearing of being punished for selecting “wrong” one.

For who- for SERBIA,
For who- for KOSOVO
For who- FOR THE ONE WHO CAN ALWAYS LOOK YOU IN THE EYES
For who- for DR VOJISLAV KOSTUNICA
