Rostrum!

Gillard is leading the ALP away from where ever Rudd was taking them. It seems to be working a treat.

Gillard can’t win the election, their only hope is that Abbott is found in the cot with Pell.

Notice that Rolf has has finally be named in the MSM a month after The Daily Trash got the scoop.

Congrats to the ed.

The NSW Opposition leader also gives his support for gay marriage, so its almost a certainty to get the nod.

‘Mr Robertson has commended Mr O’Farrell for declaring his support for a change to the Marriage Act for the first time, following the New Zealand parliament’s vote to legalise same-sex marriage.

‘Mr Robertson, who has a gay son, says it is now important for federal Opposition Leader Tony Abbott to follow Mr O’Farrell’s lead.’

I’m taking a big dose of medicinal red this evening.

“Street marching in protest was for a generation who didn’t have mobile phones and a me, me , outlook … social networking my arse … anti-social, more like …”

I agree.

The age of social networking has, in large part, circumvented face-to-face interactions. I’m starting to think that that is quite a profound eventuality, with negative implications.

unholy fuck, I’m sounding like a conservative 😯

I must admit…I was thinking this was homegrown? White American Nationalists not “foreign” born but that is what reports are implying…

It’s only speculatory on my part, Sparta, but if it was Islamic Extremists it seemed strange from the outset that responsibility hadn’t been claimed.

The usual m.o. of those types is to rub the US’s nose in the blood.

Noone, except rabid ideologues, likes to see innocent parties targetted.

The motivations of the perps will be interesting to hear.

Are they likely to ride the lightning? what do the state laws have in store for them?

Yeah, the US has had a bad week, with Waco & the rest.

Nasty stuff.

So called progressives and so called left wingers who don’t give a crap about asylum seekers or basic human rights.

So called independent.

As long as they’re not Sagittarians.

FBI PHOTO of Boston bombing suspect alongside photo of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev from his VKontakte page

‘This image provided by the Boston Regional Intelligence Center shows Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, one of the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombings. Authorities say Tsarnaev is still at large after he and another suspect — both identified to The Associated Press as coming from the Russian region near Chechnya — killed an MIT police officer, injured a transit officer in a firefight and threw explosive devices at police during their getaway attempt in a long night of violence into the early hours of Friday, April 19, 2013. The second suspect, who has not yet been identified, was killed in a shootout with police. (AP Photo/Boston Regional Intelligence Center)’

We will never hear the end of it if they are left wing but being Chechnyan it’s not looking good.

Yes Fox News

Their newsroom seemed to fall silent.

Surely not a Right Wing Nutter ?

LOL

Ah, I get it now.

Ta, splatter.

Is it known if they were acting in isolation?

Fox News seems to be out of new news

Back to CNBC for a dose of Squawk Box bad news for me

LMAO OFF! So the “bombers” were given ASYLUM and allowed under TED KENNEDY’S championed immigration act of 1965, to bring ALL FAMILY OVER…Again, it is a bit moronic to suggest citizens do not have the right to determine who comes to this country…Feel good policies once again bite us in the “ass”….Both had free rides, well educated etc…I am sure their “asylum” story had nothing to do with that either…This whole story is so bloody pathetic on so many levels and very tragic…Two American Citizens killed, one Chinese national and countless others gravely wounded….

Yes, I know…We can’t paint them all with a broad brush..blah, blah, blah….Fact is, had legitimate sensible policies been in place based on need, rule of law etc chances are this wouldn’t have happened so is it worth the risk that so many don’t go down such a path? I don’t think so…Especially in the name of “political correct” dogma…Utter garbage….

I’m being swayed by Sparta’s logic.

Yep …

Sparta we can’t blame all refugees because of a few law breakers, most are good citizens and their children happily settled.

I do know that many Lebanese children coming from that war zone were out of control in schools here, but they generally settle down when they have children of their own.

We should keep things in perspective, lets not forget the Oklahoma Bomber.

Miglo has posted the following – ”I see that someone on reb’s blog has suggested that people here should be killed.
Interesting.”

What’s that about?

I realise that they’re entirely brain dead when it comes to any reasonable analysis of the government or Gillard or the corrupt structure of the ALP, but I haven’t seen anything that justifies this statement.

‘What’s that about?’

I did say I hope he burns in hell, but that’s only a manner of speaking. The sort of thing that CU comes up with.

So Miglo is making it up, yet again. It’s his typical habit of fact free blogging combined with heavy handed censorship and nil standards.

Meanwhile, Adrian of Nowra says he doesn’t read sites like this where Sparta comments.

In that case he won’t object to being called a bullsh!t artist.

What’s the bet Abbott will put the boot into this rort?

Well, it is funny the way that mob self select out, they aren’t quite bright enough to keep up.

It’s easier for them to argue with their intellectual equals.

…such as Scaper.

I wouldn’t worry about it El Gordo.

Here’s Miglo’s standards-

• If you say his new site is good quality – he bans you
• If you make a point that he doesn’t agree with – he bans you
• If you point out that the government’s policy on asylum seekers is inhumane – he bans you
• If you object to non stop insults – he bans you
• If he has one of his regular moments of irrationality – he bans you

Miglo lives in groundhog day.

TB, the exchanges with Miglo had been entirely respectful, orderly and reasonable until he decided to have his tantrum at his new site and ban several people that contribute here.

He had no reason, no explanation, no excuse. His has resulted in some feedback, that’s hardly surprising.

True, but hypocritical c**ts deserve to be acknowledged as such!

I should add, the smarter ones just ignore his self obsessed ranting & anecdotes about his rich, influential lifestyle (as a garden builder).

IPA, I read somewhere today that the bombers, after ‘fleeing’ Chechnya, spent some time in Central Asia.
I presume that they may have been ‘groomed’ at that time (?).

Still pretty hard to sort fact from fiction regarding the attacks though; too much speculative clutter (like mine just now).

What seems clear is that they were muslims.

HuffPo: Boston Suspect’s Russian Facebook Venerates Islam, Chechen Independence

Yeah, I saw that.

I’m not under any illusions about why they appear to have done wht they did. But another anti-religion tirade from me at this point would be labouring it.

I also agree that there’s plenty of material on the internet for brainwashing, confirmation bias & self justification. It can be a fantastic source of information, if you don’t only spend time on sites which reinforce your own worldview & condemn those of everyone else; a trap too many fall into.
Horrid, when that leads to such hatred & bloodshed as a result.

I’ll tell you one thing that’ll happen after Sept 15th. A huge resurgance in left-wing blogs. They thrived under Howard but once Labor won they lost their reason foe existing. Look for a reversal.

‘BTW, Hitler’s birthday today’

Hitler’s birthday is something Teh Right celebrates, apparently …

Y’all got flogged by Collingwood. 😦

Oh and it was also a dig at Miglos habit of posting actual names of bloggers.

He is such a lowlife cunt for doing that.

Whilst visiting TPS the other day I was called a troll…. this appears to be standard practice in left wing chat rooms.

Editor: Queen is my favorite all time band, so this hed was an obvious thing for me

‘The Most Trusted Name In News’

Glad you used inverted commas.

That is a slogan. Not a statement of credibility.

Most watched, I could accept. (so many dumbasses)

‘Friday morning’s naming of the suspects in the Boston Marathon bombing disappointed a wide variety of observers who had staked sociological claims around the attack … Shortly after Monday’s attack, before any suspects were named, Salon writer David Sirota published a widely ridiculed piece expressing the hope that the bomber would be a “white American.” Sirota based his logic on an academic discipline known as Critical Race Theory.’

‘The Most Trusted name In News’ is CNN’s marketing slogan, hence the inverted commas when applying it ironically to Fox.

‘actually if you did some research on polls, you would find on a seat by seat basis, that they get it wrong 50-percent of the time or more. ‘

You’d have a reference for that, then?

Fox News is the Kaf of US cable news. They cater unashamedly to their base, around half of the US population – a demographic that had no TV ‘home’. Another example of Rupert’s undeniable business nous.

“Fox News is the Kaf of US cable news. They cater unashamedly to their base, around half of the US population – a demographic that had no TV ‘home’. Another example of Rupert’s undeniable business nous.”

Seems like a pretty good appraisal to me. 😉

I think Fox used to say “we report you decide” or something like that.

And that’s not to say there isn’t one but its very obvious their “hunt”

Much credit to the blogmasta for loads of tolerance and wit, if only he was running AIMN I’d be over the moon.

Meanwhile…..

‘In a dramatic escalation of pre-poll tensions, the Opposition leader plans to directly raise his concerns over Australia’s head of state with Ms Gillard, amid fears Labor wants to lock-in a raft of “jobs for the boys”- style appointments.

‘An investigation by News Limited can reveal an unprecedented number of one-time Labor MPs and union officials have been appointed to key Commonwealth agencies and statutory bodies, often on lucrative salaries.’

The Daily Terror

Female presenter on Meet The Press when referring to Boston bombing suspects refers to them as “these two young boys”. WTF? Young boys!? She’s implying they are somehow victims because of their “young” ages. Reality check: They are/were 19 and 26 years old! These were fully grown adult men who are completely and solely responsible for their own actions.

Yesterday TB said – ” Don’t know why you are so bothered …”

CW is full of dumb delusional, control freaks and hypocritical political cowards who I used to exchange orderly views with on Tim Dunlop’s site. The chief one is in charge. He bans reasonable contributors on a whim, without reason or rationale.

Then he’ll complain about media bias and standards.

I think it’s reasonable to point this out from time to time.

Andrew Bolt made Greg Hunt look like a fkn idiot this morning. If they go to the people with their direction action I say a pox on both their houses.

Greg Hunt is delusional and should be removed from his post.

What Yankee Blogs should we annoy

😯

‘What Yankee Blogs should we annoy’

Good idea, we could go as a flash mob and cause a momentary riot.

TB, I don’t think the Liberal’s NBN policy is too flash either.

“Most Australians prefer Labor’s faster yet pricier NBN plan to Opposition’s policy ”

And if you asked whether Australians would like a Ferrari they would also say yes. Would say yes also to a Very fast Train from Cairns to Perth. Since a VFT from Sydney to Melbourne would cost $114B a VFT from Cairns to Perth wold cost $2 Trillion dollars.

I want broadband that doesn’t destroy my budget.

It is also reasonable to say that the current Liberal policy looks quite a lot like the one the ALP promised in 2007.

The 2007 commitment was to have it finished by about now.

“It is also reasonable to say that the current Liberal policy looks quite a lot like the one the ALP promised in 2007.”

I wonder what the Coalition would have done if the situation was different. i understand that contracts have been signed and it is almost impossible not to go ahead with the NBN.

The NBN does appear to be a Labor party policy and that is my big worry. There is always some unforeseen stuff-up that occurs with Labor programs.

What is the point of speeds like this???

http://www.news.com.au/technology/biztech/nbn-promises-1gbps-speeds-for-christmas/story-fn5lic6c-1226625678468

“THE NBN will deliver speeds of 1GB per second by the end of the year.”

The most popular Bigpond Internet plans give a download limit of 5, 50 or 200GB. If you have a 5GB plan you could download your monthly allowance in 5 seconds. What do you do then?? A lot of people do not want to pay extra money for a 200GB plan.

“So according to reports Julia Gillard will be sending asylum seeker children to one of our worst detention centres – Curtin IDC.”

And of course there are lots of children in detention right now. If Howard was in power there would be mass demonstrations. There are 1,000 children in detention.

http://www.chilout.org/

I always believed that most if not all the Greens/ALP criticisms of John Howard were always politically motivated.

Where are all the protesters now with 1,000 children locked up and a total of 6,000 asylum seekers in detention??

“(*I don’t think Howard cared about people either)”

Maybe so, but it was the ALP in Opposition proclaiming how immoral Howard was and now they have more kids in detention than Howard ever did. In fact after much criticism Howard did something about kids in detention

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandatory_detention_in_Australia#National_Inquiry_into_Children_in_Immigration_Detention

“The key recommendations of the Inquiry were that children with their parents be released immediately into the community and that detention laws should be amended to comply with the Convention on the Rights of the Child. The Howard government released the children and introduced limited changes to Migration Act 1958 as a result of the report.”

After releasing children into community detention Howard also stopped the flow of boats so we only had 6 asylum seekers in detention in 2007. We did however still take our quota of 14,000 asylum seekers.

Apparently 4 percent of Americans believe ‘lizard people’ control politics…. that’s over 12 million people.

” in fact the Liberal Party by “offering” thier alternative have negated any other criticisms of the ALP version … ”

We do not know what the Libs alternatives are. I think they are locked in to the NBN because contracts have been signed. You would have to bankrupt the country to break them.

They did have a signed contract back in 2007 to bring broadband to regional Australia but Labor did break the contract. So i guess it is possible to break contracts.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OPEL_Networks

“OPEL Networks Pty Limited was a telecommunications provider that was to establish wholesale broadband services in regional areas of Australia in the form of WiMAX and ADSL2+ via a network of DSLAMs…………..The funding agreement was signed on 2007-09-09, which was dependent upon further planning by OPEL and confirmation that it would reach the agreed levels of coverage.[6][7] The then federal opposition Communications spokesman stated that they would honour the agreement, a stance maintained after winning government two months later, despite their own competing National Broadband Network proposal.[8]”

However Conroy broke the contract. The regional areas of Australia would have had broadband by now

“Now if John Howard hadn’t taken us to war in Iraq and Afghanistan … we’d probably have $30-40 billion spare change”

We would have more spare change if Swan was not Treasurer. How much did he waste on the stimulus package?? And perhaps you are telling porkies about how much we spent in Iraq.

We have spent $6B more housing asylum seekers in the last 5 years than we should have.

Neighbours-

• Kevin has a lot to say, he’s very intelligent, but sometimes I’ve heard him yelling at the TV. Therese is rich, made her money out of some Howard sell off. I really don’t know why Kevin bothers to work these days, apparently no one there likes him.

” smelly rightward contributors”

Possibly, though I think it’s due to drinking very good red, garlic with the main course and wearing Paco Rabanne, rather than my political opinions.

I meant the likes of (some now occasional) contributors such as snacty, Neil, ipaosy, iatw, yomm etc.

* I concede that rightward is a misnomer & generalisation for them

“* I concede that rightward is a misnomer & generalisation for them”

I am not sure what I am but I am definitely anti-Labor and anti-ALP supporters.

I spent some time at the Cafe some time ago and someone for the one millionth time tried to convince me that the Howard govt altered the way the unemployment rate was measured.

This time however it was slightly different. Tony Abbott apparently introduced the rule that you only have to work one hour/week to be considered employed and how evil was Abbott to alter the way unemployment was measured. Howard usually gets the blame for that.

I had to inform the poster that working one hour/week is the international standard for being classified as employed. However the poster did not believe me.

I see hundreds of falsehoods on left wing blogs. I assume ALP supporters are telling lies until proven otherwise.

‘Hang on … when the ALP did that … you lot bagged ‘em?’

I know, can’t believe a word any of them say, anyway a promise to consider something is unlikely to attract the Green vote, unless he also seriously considers a VFT at the same time.

I assume ALP supporters are telling lies until proven otherwise.

Neil plays it safe with that standard. It’s a little like saying – “I’ll presume the member of Collingwood Cheer Club are irrational, unless proven otherwise”

I prefer “correctward”.

I think I work for the law firm equivalent of Cafe Whispers/AIMN.

Wrong James, the people at your firm have “jobs”

What did I tell you folks? The new mantra of the left…

‘What did I tell you folks? The new mantra of the left…’

All illegals could be hunted down and rounded up, too easy, what then?

Now the ALP barrackers are making semantics the new differentiator in asylum seeker policy.

Their new moral high ground comes from the word ‘illegal’.

Forget locking up children, sending them to an offshore hell hole. Don’t worry about detaining enough people to fill decent sized towns.

Semantics – the new ALP differentiator.

‘But no-one comes up with a workable solution,’

Sir..sir (hand goes up)

TB, I’m not sure it’s (asylum seekers) a problem of the magnitude politicians would have us believe.

The Liberals have been consistently mean spirited, certainly since the ‘another boat, another policy failure’ statement.

The ALP chose to make political capital out of the issue. They then chose to compete in the race to the bottom, and beyond anything reasonable people would contemplate.

I think there are a range of less punitive options, but no silver bullet. I’ve outlined a few of them in the past-
*A different form of family TPVs
*On the ground education for young fishermen (in Java etc)
*Electronic tracking (if tracking is needed)

But the ALP’s only policy is increasing the punishment of the innocent. It wants ‘tough’ rather than ‘reasonable, effective and humanitarian’

Thinking back over Sparta’s WP link there is a tendency to forget what made the US great, cheap labour through waves of immigration.

Most notable was the Irish after the potato blight and then the freed African slaves after the civil war, who undercut them.

The migration problems they have in the US is unrelated to Australia’s circumstance in the 21st century.

Yep, that makes sense SB and its the argument Sparta has been making.

‘Don’t tell me Gordo’s a Crapperville advocate…?’

It was before my time here, could someone enlighten me on this Crapperville?

Scaper has always fancied himself as a projectionist and I would be curious to see how its panned out. I would ask him myself, but being banned….

He probably had in mind a city with all modern conveniences.

It may have worked if they had got their VFT from Townsville to Port Hedland, with state of the art satellite towns dotted along the way.

When I spoke to him last (in that den) Scaper told me the VFT is off, so obviously there will be no Crapperville anytime soon.

The notion of Crapperville with Scaper as Mayor for Life is hilarious.

He wanted a hub, a city in the desert, a vibrant busy metropolis!

Great, but anyone would have to presume that he’s never been past Dubbo. The outback is ugly, dusty, hot and has blow flies the size of sparrows.

There’s a reason that there are few people inland- it’s pretty well uninhabitable. Mining towns aren’t developed because people don’t like staying in those places any longer than they have to.

The Mayor of Crapperville is hilarious and delusional.

His company is appreciated by some sites.

The desert is also pristine and beautiful, its a matter of perspective.

Air conditioned satellite towns, with solar and wind farms generating energy, should be viable if they had a commercial reason to exist.

Of course if southerners don’t want the jobs we always have 457.

Scaper makes a typical error, projecting in linear fashion instead of cyclic. What he envisages is someway off.

Then South Yarra must have measured 9.8 on the Richter scale on Saturday night.

Nice strawman you built there.

Politicians know they have to deal with all types. They have to put up with calls from grumpy elderly people, politicised public servants and even delusional gardeners.

It’s about time Abbott started talking about his plans for a new government, otherwise how can he claim any kind of mandate?

He’ s far too shrewd for that, PIA.

In his defence. They all do it.

The other lot have gifted him a walk up start. He is under no compulsion (aside from a moral one) to actually be honest with the electorate.

If you let me know what you want me to ask him, I’ll write it on a brick and throw it at him put it to him as he peddles pedals through town next week. 😉

Even with something like the NBN, they go for a monopoly and something which in theory could be totally controlled by the govt in power. They cannot help themselves.

I heard the ACL blathering on ABC24 this am about how terrible it would be for christians to be forced to pay taxes which would fund RU486 on the PBS. This rank hypocrisy astounded me for a minute. What about non-believers and secular taxpayers being forced to fund private religion since the beginning of government in australia?

Yes ACL, lets have an open debate about public attitudes toward taxpayer funding of organised religion, bring it on!

Tony Abbott’s shaky campaign – beginning of the end?

‘Who defines what it means to be australian?’

Good question, worth a post, meanwhile…..

‘Fair Work Australia has ‘withdrawn’ from its pursuit of Craig Thomson and its 154 civil charges against him. It is not the end, but it means that should the 154 identical criminal charges fail, and they will, he is a free man and free to sue Abbott, Pyne, Brandis, McClymont, Lewis, Oakes and Murdoch for a quarter of a million each if they do not apologize to him and his wife and make some reparation for the suicidal misery they have put him in.’

Bob Ellis

Another who might sue abbott & co? They’ll be so busy in the courts they won’t have time to run the country. What was that he said about others standing down while being investigated etc. Could it be anything to do with abbott/libs politics criminal conspiracies of misrepresentation, unlawful collusion between media/police/politicians/public servants, fabrication and outright lies?

Don’t give up on an Ashby either, despite the failure of the media to pursue the biggest scandal in australian politics since the dismissal.

“Coalition chickens coming home to roost?”

It was not the Coalition attacking Craig Thompson at the beginning. It has been established that thousands of dollars have been spent on things that were not Union things. You do not seem to care about the waste of Union members money.

People who are not paid much have had their Union contributions used for immoral things.

And as usual you do not care.

Nothing immoral about fabricated and unlawful conspiracies to overthrow an elected government? and fabricated, defamatory, slanderous claims of criminal activity or private, scandalous behaviour to slander your targets and topple an elected government?

Nice to see you back Kittylitter…

Why thank you reb, and hello to you too!

What has this got to do with your comments about Craig Thompson??

talk about dense…or failure to think outside of the liberal party propaganda machinery.

called ‘rusted on’ for a reason!

Well, why don’t we wait for the court case[s] to determine on facts and evidence?
You are very fond of spouting that the Howard govt [abbott was a member of that govt remember?] was cleared of any AWB wrongdoing because their selective and limited inquiry ‘proved’ it to be so. Let’s see what a real court decides on evidence before we rush to declare overwhelming guilt or innocence.

Tony Abbott’s slush fund conspiracy for jailing hanson/getting rid of a political rival was very dodgy too – oh wait, that’s another court case isn’t it? Where are we at with the barbara ramjan one, does anyone know? Of course she is suing kroger, but abbott has lied and denied about that all over the place.

Here’s the upshot…

‘Federal MP Craig Thomson must still fight part of a civil case against him while he battles fraud-related criminal charges.

‘Federal Court Justice Christopher Jessup has ordered the Fair Work Commission’s civil case against Mr Thomson should proceed, except for sections that overlap with his criminal charges. Those sections, relating to the alleged purchase of escort services on Health Services Union credit cards and a cash withdrawal of more than $100,000, were postponed until his criminal charges are resolved.’

‘Who defines what it means to be australian?’

A century ago it was not unusual to see a group of men and women (predominantly of christian heritage) standing at different ends of a dance hall.

Half a century later christian nuns were still in the habit of wearing the equivalent of a burka.

A majority of Australians don’t take religion too seriously.

“Not sure what Abbott has to do with this”

Yep. What has Tony Abbott got to do with someone using Craig Thompsons credit card for prostitutes?? Thomson has confirmed that his card was used but it was not him who used it.

Please inform me??

‘What the hell has the Coalition got to do with the misuse of Craig Thompsons credit card??’

Apparently its a conspiracy.

Egg

And you wonder why i am such a strong Coalition. ALP/Greens supporters are insane so I have nowhere to go.

Anything that goes wrong, it Abbots fault.

I see the Greens are finally starting to condemn Gillards asylum seeker policy. And it is about time. But who also gets a blast?? Yep you got it.

http://www.news.com.au/national-news/tony-abbott-heckled-in-perth-about-illegal-arrivals/story-fncynjr2-1226625996801

“REFUGEE rights advocates have heckled Tony Abbott as he held a media conference in Perth denouncing the federal government’s track record with asylum seekers.

The opposition leader was admonished by a school teacher, Refugee Action Coalition spokesman Mark Goudkamp, over his use of the term ‘illegal” arrivals.”

It is not Abbott who has 6,000 asylum seekers locked up. But just wait. If Abbot wins in September out they will come and start chaining themselves to detention center fences after being quiet for the last 6 years.

The US msm refer to illegals as illegals, but in Australia we call illegals…. ‘asylum seekers’. Political correctness gone mad.

Call it what you will, we still put them behind barbed wire.

‘refugees and asylum seekers (most come by leaky boat) …’

According to Bob Carr most of them are economic refugees and we fly them home.

Kittylitter, I’d caution you against getting your info from Independant Australia or Peter Wicks.

It is not Abbott who has 6,000 asylum seekers locked up.

No, if he had his way, genuine asylum seekers will never arrive here at all, unless of course they are the right colour, religion and hold the same racist views eg Sth African/Zimbabwean farmers or christians from anywhere. Of course anyone coming by plane can overstay their visa forever and never worry about a thing.

Back to the glory days of the AFP over in Indonesia, paying people to sabotage boats – who will be the new coalition patsy now that keelty has retired in shame.

“bigots in marginal seats and coalition racists will decide who comes to this country and the circumstances in which they come”

our growing list of undesirable characteristics

3. People who repair their own kitchen appliances.
4. People who think pinot noir is a red wine

”snob …”

5. People who think wine comes in boxes or bags
6. People who drink their wine within a week of purchasing it

… musos don’t surf … they’re too busy entertainin’ the surfers …

Entertaining surfers is very community minded TB, but now that you’re retired – you need a longboard.

Abbott doesn’t have much time to write, he’ll be PM in September, so we’ll have to wait for his memoirs in 2020.

I used to go to the Bowl.

Sorry to hit & run but had to go to work. Back now and enjoying the first sips of a relaxing wine while I reflect on the blog. There was a great big, almost full moon out tonight, it made a bewitching drive home. BTW, am off interstate for a week this tues [in case you miss me & think it is more hit & run!].

The US msm refer to illegals as illegals, but in Australia we call illegals…. ‘asylum seekers’. Political correctness gone mad.

Some call asylum seekers, “illegals”, it is an irrational and xenophobic fear that has no basis in evidence or reality. Some politicians like to create fear and hatred rather than lend a compassionate hand to desperate people who have already seen terrible suffering in life.

Fair enough, KL. you want to consciously repeat falsehoods. Good luck. Ask Tom about Wicks.

Do tell, what falsehoods would they be?
I’ve seen tom’s ‘case’ against wicks in previous posts, I do note that they are very subjective and a lot of tom’s forensic and investigative examinations can be seen by an unbiased observer as biased entrapment seeking a ‘gotcha’ moment.

Notice an eery silence re Melbourne Uni subjugation of women.

From me? Could you point me to the post and discussion of that?
Is there some reason that I must make a comment on every subject or issue that you think I should? Is it a gender thing? It might make things easier if you made a list or something, I’m not a mind reader.
Ohhh…
Do YOU want to make a comment?? Feel free then, or is it more of the usual – you looking to pick a shitfight? I’m not really interested in playing your silly buggers.

BTW, what’s an eerie silence like, is it the same as what a normal silence would be when the subject hasn’t even been raised?

Oh and if I resource Bolt, I state it, and it’s not often.

Abbott declares (cultural) war: Andrew Bolt APRIL 27 2013 (5:39pm)

Is Tony Abbott now feeling confident enough to fight some cultural wars?

Yesterday he attacked Melbourne University for allowing gender segregation at halls hired out by Muslim groups.

yeah, sure.

You two must be identical twins, sharing the same thoughts, you even make the same misrepresentations, fabrications and distortions arguments/attacks about the same invented outrages and culture wars.

Correction – I’ve seen tom’s ‘case’ against wicks in previous posts, I do note that they are very subjective and a lot of tom’s forensic and investigative examinations can be seen by an unbiased observer as biased entrapment seeking a ‘gotcha’ moment the evidence of Wick’s hopeless analysis is compelling, and his so called evidence against Lawler is non existent

Also noticed an eery silence on these gender based abortions. Apparently it’s not sexist to kill unborn children just because they are female. But it IS sexist to question that. Go figure.

A lot of eeriness about it seems, must be that big full moon I saw on the way home.

Killing girls; by Andrew Bolt
http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/

If it’s a cultural practice from another country, it should be seen by all as completely unnecessary here, perhaps a public education campaign. What about the designer babies, where couples are

How did this very private concern between a doctor and his patients become public knowledge?

Their life, their choice. Why must people be forced to live by the beliefs of others? Drs have no more right than any other person to interfere with the lives of people. They ply a trade, a service, which they sell on the market.

If a doctor has a moral objection to any abortion he has to refer the pt to another doctor, one who will treat her without prejudice, judgement or pious, sanctimonious godbothering. No-one is forcing him to perform the abortion.

What about IVF? It is by it’s very nature, the designing of babies and genetic engineering.

…Victoria’s Abortion Law Reform Act 2008 specifies the obligations of registered health practitioners who have a “conscientious objection” to abortion.
Under the Act, if a woman requests a doctor to advise on a proposed abortion and the practitioner has a conscientious objection, he or she must refer the woman to a practitioner who does not conscientiously object…

‘Some call asylum seekers, “illegals”, it is an irrational and xenophobic fear that has no basis in evidence or reality.’

We, the Australian people, welcome legal immigrants from all over the world to come here. Your political bias is showing, you want to open our borders to all no matter what the consequences…. a majority of us don’t want that.

For the most part the people who come on fishing boats are illegal economic migrants and we send them home by plane.

NBN Gouging…..

‘MAJOR contractors handling the rollout of the National Broadband Network are charging the federal government up to 2 1/2 times the amount they are passing on to subcontractors who perform the work.

‘The failure of those major contractors – or “tier-one” contractors – to pass on the benefits of the scheme has meant many subcontractors are refusing to sign up to the NBN, while the ones that do are often far less experienced.’

No, the Bowl in Sydney, TB.

“No, the Bowl in Sydney, TB.”

Mmmmmmmm…………is that the old Sydney Stadium at Rushcutters Bay or something else Egg ?

The bowling alley that used to be there next to the stadium perhaps

The leftoid blogs have the ability to turn a blind eye when the going gets rough. Had a look around and ‘crickets’ is apt.

‘Can this be right?’

The under-employed, commonly known as the working poor, are everywhere. So yes, those numbers appear accurate.

Hi there, its pleasant piece of writing
regarding media print, we all understand media
is a impressive source of information.
