i.e., you refuse to answer; I mean, to give *your* answer -not someone 
else's-. Don't you have one, or have you suddenly felt shy?

No, not at all, I'm not afraid of getting /right/ for the wrong reasons, 
first of all because it's not right (at least for PIRATA, it seems that 
it is for you) to make people feel confident and appeased with current 
state of thing, thus not aiming further changes (as long as you aim 
those changes); also, I'm sure that it would happen, that's why I say 
"/bread for today, hunger for tomorrow/". And it's a political stance, 
of course it is -nonetheless, it's included in the Statute of a 
political party registered in the Political Parties Registry of the 
Spanish Ministry of Interior, just to make you check how political it 
is-; you are not able to discredit me just because I don't agree with 
you, as statements without arguments, i.e., "/that is a position for 
activists, not for politicians/", are just pointless; it's not enough to 
state something, one has to prove it in order to make it acceptable.

You're not a political authority, thus you're not entitled to decide 
what is political and what is not; simply, any claim from a legally 
established political party is a political claim -not to be mistaken (as 
you do) with whether it is acceptable or not (about PIRATA claims, a 
matter of PIRATA's members and Spanish eligible voters) or whether it is 
a good idea or not (you can think it's not, I can think it is, if you 
don't agree with me ... what can I do?)-.

PIRATA's? Wait and see; you can anticipate how can it be from PIRATA 
members' mails and from our blog. Also, sooner or later you'll also see 
legislative proposals from Piratpartiet, Deutsches Piraten Partei, 
Piraattipuolue, etc.
