Election: Quotes of the day - The Orange Room

sarhay

The intention of this thread is to archive the most humorous, to put it mildly, quote of the day for any politician or candidate related to the coming parliamentary election. To start, the best quote I found for yesterday goes for MP Mousba7h Al-ahdab saying the following:

"أنا حكما أعتبر نفسي وسطيا،
ولكن أنا في 14 شباط وما زلت،

For today , SG tops my list when he complained about Saado's tactics in winning the election, and I quote: فالبعض يعتبر أن علينا في هذه المرحلة أن نقوم بتوزيع السمن والزيت والعدس والزفت على الناس لكي نربح في الانتخابات النيابية، فهذا منطق غير صحيح،
فنحن نقوم بأي شيء يلزم لنفوز بالانتخابات النيابية ولكن نحن نعلم أن هذا ليس جوهر عملنا

in other words, he is saying "we know it sucks but we have no choice but to swallow"!!!

Michel el Murr: If I hadn't allied with Aoun in 2005, I would have had a bloc of at least 5 MPs!

Also, Michel El Murr said: I sacrificed my 2000 alliances to align with C&R in 2005

Correction: the winners in 2000 were
Michel Murr
Emile Emile Lahoud (pro Lahoud)
Antione Haddad (pro Lahoud)
Ghassan Achkar (Qawmi)
Sebouh Hovnanian (Tachnak)
Albert Mkhaiber (then Ghassan Mkhaiber) - pro-FPM
Pierre Gemayel (14 March)
Nassib Lahoud (14 March)

Sorry Abou El Mich, the above shows that everyone is fitting somewhere
Based on that, the number of allies that you sacrificied is ZERO

Antoine Haddad might be pro-Murr or Pro-Kataeb.. so i guess he might have sacrificed 1 person!

but we on the other hand, sacrificed A LOT by having him on our list. it tainted our image for the rest of eternity.

While I agree that the MM quote is the quote of the day (hilarious!

), I don't think we can forget this one:

جعجع: باسيل من اكثر الورزاء الذين يتحركون في وزاراتهم واقولها بكل موضوعية

Here is Michel Al Murr qoutes of yesterday in plain arabic from annahar:
"لن اقدم هدية بعد الآن لا بأصوات ولا بنواب بعدما اوهمونا عام 2005 انهم عباقرة، وتبين ان بعضهم جلابيط".

It is truly a global recession time and even Murr is hit by it; yalla no more free votes, get your owns!!! y3ani shou 7hakeh-jewels!
Come to think about it, i edited this post to include what May Chidiac said on tuesday:
ربما نحن في العام 2005 ساهمنا بوصولهم ودفعنا الثمن غاليا
Are they talking about the same subject and how coincidental it is to use very similar terms? it a small world after all!

اكد النائب السابق صلاح حنين لـ"النشرة" ان اللائحة الوسطية الذي سيترشح ضمنها الى جانب ادمون غاريوس "لن تضم اقطاب معروفين من "14 آذار" ولكنهم سيتمثلون لاننا سنؤلف لائحتنا بالشراكة مع جنبلاط".
