Reasons why right thinking Australians should be sorry ("sorry" messages below):
Quotable quote Brisbane Lord Mayor Jim Soorley, 7th February 1998,
"It is right that people should say sorry when someone suffers pain (at the
hands of others)"
Pauline Hanson, the independent Federal Minister for Oxley in Queensland, has continued to challenge the entrenched, corrupt establishment in Australia head-on. This was her platform when she was elected by the voters in that seat in 1996 with the biggest swing in the country.
Because of her resilience in fighting for the mainstream Australian population:
News Limited and Packer media, with the full backing of the major political parties, have gone out of their way to publicly discredit Pauline Hanson.
The media have blamed Pauline Hanson for just about everything that goes wrong in Australia - logic being no basis to get in the way of a misleading story damning her.
the major political parties, both Australian Labor Party and Liberal Party, have jeered Pauline Hanson when she rises to speak on behalf of Australians in Parliament.
The Australian Labor Party have unleashed their thugs on her meetings in an attempt to close down her party.
Government officials have sanctioned doctored pornographic images of Pauline Hanson on web sites managed by their associates.
Channel 9's 60 Minutes broke their written word to secure a damning interview with Pauline Hanson.
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation's Triple J youth radio station typecast her in a song (Pauline Pantsdown) as supporting paedophilia - using her voice edited to match their theme.
The Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission tried her publicly on a "racist comment" when they knew, from the start, that she had been misquoted by the media.
The above are just some of the issues that have been thrown at Pauline Hanson. That they are largely media inspired attacks is no accident. They are deliberate and calculated. They were initially aimed at bringing Ms Hanson to her knees, when this did not work the media attacked her key staff. When they stood resolutely by her side the media then went out of their way to sow discord in Australia's fastest growing political movement - Pauline Hanson's One Nation.
Here are some well known personalities who should, but probably won't, say sorry to Pauline Hanson:
| Rupert Murdoch | Kerry Packer | Richard Alston | John Howard | Kim Beazley |
| Tim Fischer | John Laws | Alexander Downer | Cheryl Kernot | Richard Carlton |
| Phillip Adams | Kerry O'Brian | Maxine McKeogh | Patricia Thompson | Terry Sweetman |
| Mike Gibson | Stott Despoja | Jim Soorley | Amanda Vanstone | Jeff Kennett |
Now it is time for good Australians to say "I'm sorry" to Australia's beacon of hope in a corrupt political system gone wrong:

8th February 1998
Dear Pauline,
I am so sorry for the pain that you have had to bear on my and millions of other Australians behalf. I admire your guts, your fortitude and your resilience in the face of immense odds as well as media distortions funded by those who would keep their influential but undemocratic role in Australia.
You are a beacon of hope for Australians - the mother of our nation. Shaping our future based on equality for all.
An admirer and supporter,

Dear Pauline
I am so sorry for the pain that you have faced while trying to make Australia a better place for Australians
I am sorry that my early opinions of you were formed with the 45c I spent each morning on the Sydney Morning Herald
I admire you for your strength, to stand and take a battering when so many others would fall and be forgotten.. Don't EVER give up the fight to retake Australia
Peter Cook, Bangor
Dear Pauline,
I am sorry that you have been subjected to the degrading and humiliating acts of those that are obviously not "True Australians".
I am sorry that we have allowed our country to be infiltrated by agents of evil that are dedicated to the destruction of our Nation.
I am sorry that the job has been left to you to awaken Australians out of their carefully orchestrated apathy.
I am sorry that it is always you at the front line to bear the brunt of the treachery that is rife in our Parliaments.
You have my greatest admiration and support. When I met you in Festival Hall in Brisbane, I asked to shake your hand so that I could draw some of your courage to myself and then go out and pass it on to others. Some would see that as being purely symbolic gesture on my part and perhaps at the time it may have been. Symbolic or not, it has worked for me as I carry out my work for One Nation, I do it with a strength that I never new I had. Perhaps now I can offer some strength back.
In the sixties we used to use a catch phrase which was a bit of corrupted Latin which said :
"Non-illegitimo Carborundum" (roughly translates to "Don't let the Bastards Grind you Down)
I believe it is appropriate to our cause and as such I will sign off with......
Non-illegitimo Carborundum
Allan W. Doak
Dear Pauline,
I am so sorry that the "race debate" has become so emotionally packed with senseless subjective comments.
I am sorry that Australian's are largely subjected to a biased "black arm band" view of Australian History by the mainstream media.
I am sorry that the extreme left wing degrade their behaviour to such low acts of violence, with little or no condemnation from the mainstream media, or politicians.
I am sorry that some of those people who oppose you, are not able to express any intellectual argument without throwing in the overly used "racist" stereotype. I support peoples right to argue against you, and indeed some of their arguments have validity. However, I am sorry that many of these people brush aside anything you say on principle without further thought.
I am sorry that billions of dollars in Australian taxes aimed at funding the Aboriginal people have had little impact in improving the standard of living of Aboriginal Australians.
I am sorry that there are Australian citizens who unashamedly squash the right for freedom of speech.
I am sorry that our taxes are funding obscene forms of "artistic expression" aimed at maligning you which the media largely ignores.
I am sorry that some Australians believe it is racist to treat people on a bases of need rather than race. Affirmative action of this nature (including feminist affirmative action for women) is divisive rather than reconciliatory.
I am sorry that much of the media and the "politically correct" have blamed you for any racist attack when you have on many occasions called your supporters to be non violent and express their feelings peacefully on voting day.
I am sorry that most of your press releases receive little media coverage except when it is perceived that you have made a ³racist comment². There is little doubt that few Australians would be aware that you advocated for food aid to help the starving North Korean¹s, or your sympathy for the sufferings of the East Timorese.
I am sorry that many Australians have been misled to believe that all of your policies are based on race, leaving many people unaware of your views on such topics as the MAI, education and law enforcement.
I am sorry that many Aborigines are locked into the system of ³welfare² that discourages them to self advancement. I do not envy their position that has been created by governments in the past decades. Having being unemployed once for three months, I know that fulfilling employment and having a purpose in life is far more rewarding than having to survive on other peoples taxes.
May your freedom of speech continue in the endeavour to make Australia a country we all can be proud of.

As an Australian I feel compelled to say I'm sorry that you have to put up with the crap that has come from a minority of this country.
Be prepared though, this site and the "sorry Pauline" book has been advertised on TV in Sydney and probably other cities as well. This means that you can be assured of getting the ratbag fringe sending the usual disgusting emails to you.
Put up with it and keep the good fight going. You can be sure that if Howard or Beasley started getting the sort of emails you can expect they would have the Federal Police doing arrests all over the country.
Good luck.

Dear Mrs Pauline Hanson,
Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
I am sorry to see such a courageous and loyal woman, and one of the very few loyal Australians in our Parliament/Senate, is submitted to such slander as the dupes of the foreign "elites" can dish out.
Yours sincerely in the love and service of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I am sorry that Pauline Hanson, whose statements echo the thoughts of so many Australians, should be so attacked, so vilified, so demonised that her words are now routinely twisted out of recognition.
By attacking Pauline Hanson, her political opponents are attacking those millions of Australians whose thoughts and beliefs she articulates.
I am sorry that a person so courageous, so outspoken and so representative of the ordinary people of Australia should be attacked at every turn.
I admire your courage in sticking to your guns, Pauline, and may you continue to stick it to the political elites who think that they may dictate to the people of Australia,

Pauline,
Please accept my sincere apologies for the way some "Australians" have mistreated you.
The Packer and Murdoch news media have blatantly misrepresented you at every opportunity with complete immunity from criticism.
Hired thugs have turned up at your meetings and physically assaulted your supporters with complete immunity from prosecution.
Please have the courage to carry on in the face of this relentless bullying. We need you.
Best regards,

Both my wife and I are sorry that we have such bigotted, greedy, untruthful, misleading, selfish, blind, politicians and others in the community who denigrate someone who although not a "mouthpiece" like many of them, mouth off like a dog with rabies at the mention of Pauline Hanson every time she says something true.

Subject: I'm Not Sorry
Dear Pauline,
I'm not sorry about the Norman invasion of England or any other invasion for that matter.
Not sorry about WW1 or WW2 or any other wars.
Not sorry about the deportation from their homeland, for life, of the convict settlers. (even though most of their crimes today, would attract at most a bond)
Not sorry about the way Australia was settled or the way the respective governments have treated this countries inhabitants during it's short history.
Not sorry about the treatment meted out to yourself and other people for exercising their right of free speech.
I am just NOT SORRY!
I believe that to be sorry would imply some feeling of blameworthiness and hence guilt and I feel none of these. I had little if any knowledge and certainly no part in any of these events so how can I feel sorry? Amazed, disgusted, incredulous, astounded, disbelieving, even angry, that these things happened and are happening still but not sorry. Being sorry for people only encourages them to become victims and the world surely has a surplus of them." It's not what happens to you, in this life, that counts- it's how you react to it" Please don't look back with sorrow, rather, look forward with strength and conviction. We are counting on you.

Thank you for having the courage to take on the destroyers of our once great nation. I hope that more and more people can wake up to the thieves and do gooders who have and are wrecking our country Australia.
We have the natural resources and the talent for everyone in Australia to have an incredible lifestyle, but with unbearable taxation and no incentive to produce, thanks to a bloated and out of control government spending, we are facing ruin. We are already ruined we just don't know about it yet because the government certainly won't tell us.
Get rid of all the government social programs and give them to free enterprise, encourage people to made a profit and spending would increase thereby improving the economy. Peru can do it why can't we! Forget income tax, institute a means so that everbody paid a reasonable share of running the country. Perhaps we should look at replacing Hong Kong as a truely free enterprise nation in our region (it worked for them before the communists took over).
Thank you Pauline, i'm sorry that you have to suffer the creeps who don't know how to be human and love all other humans,
God bless YOU,

I'm sorry that the Government is trying to get rid of you by redistributing your seat of Oxley right out from under your feet. You make the political establishment in this country uncomfortable because you say what most people actually think. I admire you for deciding to stand for the new seat of Blair rather than running for the Senate. Any dill can get into the Senate; you have only to look at 90% of the incumbents to see that. A Federal election is coming, probably sooner rather than later so I wish you the very best in your campaign.

Dear Pauline,
I was just reading some of the I'm sorry letters & one of them said Aust. was on the brink! Well, I have just been watching the "Backside brigade" on TV. I think it is absolutely dispicable and shameful to our country to have such a parade on our airwaves. They should all be sent to Iraq so that the moslems could deal with them.....they are certainly no good to us! What do I tell my small children when they ask-"What do homosexuals do & how are they different to us"? I AM SORRY Pauline it's reaching the stage where I'm ashamed to call myself an Aussie.....you get more recognition if you call yourself a fairy!.................Please do something before it's too late. Don't give up! Only listen to the real men & women of this country....I'm sure they are still in majority.

Yes I am sorry but at the same time I am VERY PROUD of Pauline Hanson while the politicians of the other parties are scared in their boots of losing their own "gravy train", hence their cowardly attacks, with the media, on the ONLY politician who can save Australia.
You only attack someone if you are frightened of someone who represents the TRUTH, as the next election will demonstrate when voters can vote in strict privacy without the intimidation of unemployed , but paid, thugs and faceless cowards.
Stick to you guns Pauline.

I'm sorry that we are governed by weak, scared men who cow-tow to terrorist like minority groups hell bent on on their own agenda no matter what the cost.
I'm sorry that the silent majority supports your political views but they are generally employed and cannot be on call to cause mayhem to the delight of the corrupt media.
I'm sorry that the situation will only get worse unless drastic changes are made, soon.

No need to say sorry Pauline,anyone who can get the liberal party(little l) the labour party (little l) the media and all those poofters and dunces that are listed in your home page to agree, then you certainly have something going for you. I thought Mike Gibson had a bit more sense of fair play,but no doubt had to bow his head to the boss. Good luck Pauline I do say sorry to all those misguided !@#$%^&*'s that won't listen to the spoken word,but rather change the text then quote you.

Dear Pauline,
The only thing I feel sorry about is the way this country is being led and the vocal minority who seem to have all the say in the biased tabloids. I feel sad and let down by those who have not given you a fair go and listened to you repeat what most of us have been saying for the last twenty years. You were our voice and they stoned you for it - it is they who should be sorry. One day they will grow up and realise the stupidity of their actions for they are the sorry ones - ignorant of our love for this country and our need to stem the tide that is deviding this country. I know how hard it must be for you to have to go in to bat for them at all. I was one of the first ones to encourage you, but I also warned you that they would try to break your heart. You showed them otherwise and that is truely one thing that I am not sorry for.

Dear Pauline,
I attended your meeting last friday and with the hundreds of people there felt your courage and conviction and was(amazed) that you are not the two headed monster some of the media make you out to be.
I would like to say sorry for the hurt inflicted on you by these media barrons and there cronies who sell there souls for a few dollars a week.

I'm so sorry Pauline
Dear Pauline,
We are so very sorry for the crap that you have put the Australian Nation through as a whole.
As God fearing souls, the attitude that is relfected by you and your party members is one of bias and does not epitomise the Australian spirit as you would like us to believe, nor does it seem the way of the Lord.
Your One Nation Party would like to claim that the media has portrayed them in a negative light, but the media cannot portray an image that doesn't exist,therefore meaning you must have some negative issues to begin with,which is what you and your party members state do not exist.
Is there not a law concerning discrimination based upon race in Australia? We seem to recall that there is one, not just in theory, but in practice also.
Most Australians couldn't really care about the issues you have decided to take on, so it was a bit of a waste of time and the average taxpayers dollars.
Yours sincerely,
Jessica Lee
