Some jokers have given new lyrics to the Dr. Dre and Eminem classic. Hilarious.
My favourite part is Hide’s cameo.

A mate just sent me this, classic:
As a kid at a decile two high school in under National in the nineties, the one thing I did get a good education in was heavy metal. So, I appreciate 08wire setting their final video to the great Metallica ballad ‘Nothing Else Matters’.
You’ve done fantastic work, see you in 2011, if not before.
Want a say in who will run the country - let’s get the vote out.
Just as long as they know it’s Saturday 8th November!
Yesterday morning on Sunrise, John Key was moaning that there is no context to the latest secret agenda tape, where Bill English praises the war in Iraq and criticises Bill English’s ‘moralistic’ approach to international relations. Key is right, context helps us undestand information better. Luckily, Scoop’s library keeps every media release, so we can see what English was saying as leader of the Nats as the time of the invasion:
“The National Party strongly supports New Zealand’s traditional friends and allies, and like them it’s committed to regime change in Baghdad”
Luckily too, Labour08 has audio of Key speaking on Iraq in the House, from which Greeenwoman has produced a youtube video that put Key’s rant into its proper context:
For a final piece of context, here is Phil Goff, an experienced minister of foreign, defence, and trade, presenting a more, um, measured view of international relations
Ahead of the final leaders’ debate tonight, 08wire has produced a video on John Key’s lies in the second debate.
What strikes me about these lies is how they are, for the most part, of the ‘New Zealand sucks’ ilk and that they are quite petty. I guess telling lots of smaller lies lessens the likelihood that the media will call Key to account, as they might with larger lies, but it also means he makes himself a liar over small beer. Not something most people would sacrifice their integrity for.
Expect him to repeat the same lies tonight. As with the previous two debates, there will be live fact checking on The Standard.
More from 3News tonight on the secret recordings taken at the Naitonal Party conference in August. This time it’s Bill English expressing concern over Barack Obama’s “moralistic” stance to international relations:
I’m a bit worried about this whole Obama and Europe thing, just because there’s a limited effectiveness in being moralistic about international relations… and the US you can argue over do it - Bush should have put a different window dressing on it but there still needs to be someone willing to pull the trigger.
Rather than address the substance of his own deputy’s comments Key is outrageously spinning this as “another dirty trick from Labour”. English won’t front either, using the same line as Key.
Part 3 in the CTU’s series of election vids. The best yet
You can see the other two here
We’ve just received these. The first is from Hollowman productions, who brought us the famous Porirua markets video.
The second is a video a reader took when he was stopped by a plain-clothes cop after asking a leftwing question to John Key at a campaign event.
The question he asked is here
I found it weird that National’s attack ad is a series of newspaper headlines. Everyone knows newspaper headlines are sensationalist and everyone knows that things were much worse under National in the 1990s, as this new youtube vid illustrates:
Meanwhile, the upbeat jokers at 08wire have a positive reponse to the Nat attack ad:
The CTU has released a second great youtube vid. Well worth a watch and emailing around.
Warning - this song will stick in your head!
If you missed Ali Ikram’s view of the day (from yesterday)
A different ’story of two National party guys’ from 08wire:
UPDATE: The Pink Batts original is youtubed here.
Yep, that’s a pusy Roger Douglas zombie eye staring at you. Ew.
Observations of the campaign trails from TV3’s Ali Ikram….
Not sure what I think of those “bleeps” on the John Key excerpt…
National policy on Maori seats (2007): “The Caucus today confirmed that the Maori seats will be abolished, which we anticipate will take place around the time of settlement of historic Treaty claims,” says National Party Leader John Key.
National policy on Maori seats (Sept 2008); “National wants to scrap the Maori seats in Parliament once all historical Treaty settlements are sorted.”
National policy now: Key told the Maori Party he was prepared to drop a policy to abolish the Maori seats in Parliament. “They’ve raised it with us on numerous occasions and I’ve made it quite clear to them it’s not a bottom line for us,” he told reporters on the campaign trail in Dunedin.
And then I spotted this video on some of those other issues he has flip flopped over….
