Hello there to you too.

(Clearly, none were found; well one-and-forty were found, then forty-and-one was found unfound and unfound found, and any irresponsible claims to the contrary are therefore unfounded…

But Mr Newhouse argues there are serious concerns for the safety of the asylum seekers if they are handed over, and is worried they will also be charged and potentially jailed.

‘‘In Sri Lankan jails, detainees are often subjected to torture and sometimes they never reappear,’’ he said. ‘‘We’re talking about a boat load of women and children, and I would have thought that the minister needs to think very clearly before he sends them into Sri Lankan jail.’’

The group already handed over will face court in the port of Galle at an unspecified date, charged under the Immigrants and Emigrants Act, a Sri Lankan police spokesman reportedly said. The asylum seekers were transferred in mild sea conditions off the coast of Sri Lanka after the boat was stopped west of the Cocos Islands in late June.

“The sentence for those who are proved to have left illegally is two years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine,” the spokesman said, according to Reuters.

The Australian government says none of the Tamils, who were screened via video link, are in danger of persecution. ‘‘All were screened in terms of any potential protection obligation and none were found to be owed that protection,’’ Immigration Minister Scott Morrison said on Monday.

Refugee lawyer David Manne said it was difficult to track the fate of returned asylum seekers. “This is part of the problem that we’ve seen in Sri Lanka, with people being essentially summarily expelled there without proper due process,” he told ABC TV.

Further comment has been sought from Mr Morrison’s office.

‘Former Army Commander Sarath Fonseka, who was granted a Presidential Pardon was released from the Welikda prison a short while ago. His words as he came out of the prison were, “I will sacrifice my life for you who stood by me and supported at all times. I will always be there for you.”

Colombo Times

Correction

Abbott and Morrison had nothing to do with Fonseka’s release, it happened a couple of years ago. (Scribe failed to check his facts and made shit up)

“Fonseka can vote, but cannot contest, if he is without civic rights.”

I was listening to ABC yesterday afternoon.

The debate was about “mandate”. Many suggested that Abbott didn’t have a mandate to repeal the carbon tax as the Greens and the ALP were elected on the basis of not dismantling it.

Ignoring that Rudd/ALP was committed to “terminating” it, the main point they seemed to miss was that on the basis of this logic, the only HoR MP that was elected on the basis of a carbon tax in 2010 was Adam Bandt, 1 out of 147, some “mandate” Gillard had for introducing it in the first place.

Actually yomm, Labors position was to move from the fixed price ets (what the media and libs called Gillard’s Carbon Tax, even though it differed remarkably from the Carbon Tax Gillard promised not to implement) to a full floating ets (which is the same as the previous except the price was not set), which was supposed to be coming in …about now instead of another year from now from memory.

But, our parly is about to get rid of the ets, on the proviso, according to pup, that we have an ets ❓ 😯

No wonder the monkeys confused.

I want to see hockeys crocodile tears now

Australia accused of breaking law after returning asylum seekers to Sri Lanka
UN refugee agency says it is ‘deeply concerned’ about transfer of Tamils, who fear torture or death at hands of Sri Lanka police

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/07/australia-accused-breaking-law-returning-asylum-seekers-sri-lanka

Mind you, Labor also return Sri Lankans before under similar arrangements, so are as much to blame for this almighty mess. No wonder they are too afraid to stick their heads over the turrets on this issue.

Yes

I had assumed it would be more 😉

‘… but I do reckon an ETS would help global pollution far more than direct action … polluters need incentives to find alternative/alternative solutions to production, rather than taxpayers “rewarding” them for improvements in pollution control …’

Clearly you are not a practicing agnostic.

No, he’s not a member of the Denialati.

WTF does that mean …

I think it means that you can think for yourself, without the likes of bolt spinning the wheels 😉

Take your persistent denial of reality out the back dopey

To call EGG a harmless trace gas a brainless pollutant is politically and scientifically in correct.

Yes quite sure we all agree on that 🙂

What you seek teabagz is total adherence to the mantra, no wishy washy agnostics.

The mopping up will take a little while, but at least the science is finally settled.

”Climate change has been affecting this planet for millions of years”

True. People have been dying for thousands of years. But does this mean we can shoot them?

”Climate change has been affecting this planet for millions of years”

Climate change probably began when the planet formed an atmosphere.

And you are?

”””””””””’It is clear however that Australia has been taken over by a coterie of climate denialists, decision-makers who either don’t believe in climate change at all, or don’t accept the dangers.

Would `you` really counter my idiotic claim with yet, another idiotic claim like,

””””His view is simply not supported by public polling figures.”””’

#unfortunately, this author chose to bury this,

”””””””””’anonymous billionaires have spent more than $120 million funding more than 100 climate denial groups in an effort to discredit climate science.”””””””’

#an actual fact buried amongst JohnW`s pack of lies speech, and fcuking `polls`

WTF does that mean

It means that, like the climate changing, people have been dying for years for a variety of reasons but, like the recent climate change, the killing would be a result of mans direct involvement.

Just because it has happened before without our involvement, doesn’t mean that we are not responsible for it now.

EVERY study has revealed either no discernible reason, or mans hand in it. There has not been any other possible reason discovered. The past ones have always had an outside influence, described by scientific studies. In this most recent change, the only influence to have left their trail of culpability is mankind’s activities.

Let’s talk about the hiatus?

Talk about denialist talking points out the back

What is it that makes my agnostic stand bother you lot …

I personally don’t have an issue with you “agnostic” stand, you don’t argue one way or another.

It is denialist like grodo that shit me, lying and repeating false assertions time after time. They are the well paid and the ones making the money, but they accuse the scientists of being in it for the cash.

And, they are preventing (they think) any real advance in prevention.

‘It is denialist like grodo that shit me, lying and repeating false assertions time after time.’

Noice to know you have been attending my lectures.

Can we talk about the science?

Guffaw @ the Abbott government getting shafted…

And, for the record, this atheist has never set out to convert anyone.

Bolt’s sustained histrionics regarding Palmer, some legitimate…plenty just partisan screeeeeech, doesn’t seem to have helped AbbottCorp very much, thus far.

Incoming pantywetting at the Herald Sun, to be sure.

so they’d better be good or you lot are going to cop it.

What’r ya gonna do?

Post another thread!!

😆 😆 😆 😆

“I’ve just come back from my first shopping experience at Aldi.”

I bought an easel there last year. Quite good quality and only $30. I bolted past the baked bean section.

‘I bought an easel there last year.’

Their stretched canvas is good value.

“Their stretched canvas is good value.”

So are Officeworks’ (the 2- and 3-packs).

Gillard’s negotiating skills [and the legislation passed by her party] make these ‘adults in charge’ appear as the grubsters that they are.

When will the unhinging begin with our media, instead of them attempting to paint the lipstick on?

The uncomfortable truth about the unrivalled verity of election 2013 is that the promise to scrap the carbon tax is more costly than was ever explained.

And that is quite apart from whether its abolition is sound policy – which it clearly is not.

http://www.theage.com.au/federal-politics/political-opinion/upper-house-unpredictability-leaves-coalition-stalled-20140709-3bncm.html

What ” unrivalled verity “?

more costly than was ever explained.

Except by the Labor Government of the day. Oh, that’s right, they were just a “chaotic” shambles, why listen to them?

I didn’t read the rest, but I’ll assume that not once does this muppet ever check the rear view mirror to see if perhaps, just perhaps, him and his brethren are the ones who actually let the voters down?

which it clearly is not

I would love to see the link to article he wrote PRIOR to the election pointing all of this out.

Double D feels inevitable..

You forget he is a political animal, better to die on your feet than spend the next couple of years on your knees.

Be afraid of a cornered rat.

At least the non murdoch media aren’t mincing

But the whole chaotic day would have been less embarrassing if:

Now, like any government that does not command a majority in both houses, Abbott and his team have to do deals and make concessions. Apparently that isn’t “dodgy” any more, but – like deals with minor parties always are – just a reality of the political system.

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/10/now-its-tony-abbotts-turn-to-do-dodgy-deals-with-minor-parties

Although lenore, I would love to see your column pre-election loudly declaring that doing deals amongst political parties is actually how our system works, rather than just going along with the meme of the time about “dodgy deals”.

Too little, too late.

””’I steered past the wine section””’

l don`t drink wine (very rarely spirits) so l can`t advise on`em, other than other folks seem to reckon they`re good (but ya`have to decide for ya`self) the only booze l tried was a beer at a friends house, when they first started selling booze, it was good, a similar to a standard toohey-new or carlton,

l`ve been trying their stuff since they opened, haven`t come across anything terrible, sure, if ya don`t like `red-wine`, then won`t like theirs either, but don`t confuse yourself with the `price` element, aldi stuff isn`t the `total-crap` the woolies/coles duopoly have tried to peddle in the past, good luck with your shopping 🙂

This may come as a shock to you bagz, you have nothing upstairs worth salvaging.

I cannot say, there is an embargo on this discussion, although what he had to say sounds reasonable. Abbott is naturally reluctant to go to the people now, but after the G20 meeting he would be more willing.

‘Like I said, a gutless bully. All dick, no balls.’

Abbott is pragmatic and needs to get the Coalition in winning mode, which won’t be possible before the G20 meeting.

On the other hand if the carbon tax repeal bill is rejected a third time its possible a DD will come on straight away.

favourable treatment from leftist media

Why is the Saturday Paper “leftist”?

I thought they were kind “centrist”

Is there a study that says inner city people lean to the left, or are you relying on an internet meme?

Because a lot of conservative workers I know have their apartments there, to be “close to the action” (whatever that may be).

Just sayin’ 😉

“because a lot of conservative workers I know have their apartments there”

#TomR’sMates

“well, those AEC stats were quick to hand, anything you want to tell us re party political employment or affiliation”

Erm, no. Try googling “election results, melbourne” (or sydney, or canberra) and see what you get.

“I couldn’t be bothered!”

I know, googling is hard. Making stuff up is much easier.

When you deny Labor is a party of the left, you’ve run out of arguments.

(Here’s another random/trivial question: why is the human retina capable of distinguishing more shades of green on the visible wavelength spectrum than any other colour if it’s all just the same-same grue-bleen in aggregate?

————————

Of course, el g, if Queenslanders don’t or don’t want to re-elect Premier Newman and/or want a new best friend’s Roads of the 21st Century, then they will have burnt a new best friend, the bestest new friend they (n)ever had, a new best friend who says he can’t or won’t work with a non-Coalition government to deliver a better future for Queensland and Australia; and that would be a distinct pity for now-and-then friended and/or friendless Queenslanders; and so it goes: be friended, very friended is the obvious and only real choice. Perhaps.)

Now, ALP rusted-ons deny their party’s leftism – in order to disassociate themselves from the left’s shameful past. Once, however, they would have been proudly part of the (come-the) revolution.

Pathetic.

It’s interesting, though.

Leftoid/progressive/social-democrat/socialist/collectivist/commo/pinkos no longer wish to be known as leftists.Nobody on this blog will admit to being a lefty any more.

Score a point in the culture wars to the teabag/tory/right-wing nutjob/death-beasts.

Nobody wants to be a lefty any more?

So.

In the contest of ideas we have only one side: the boltoid/teabagger/tory/RWDB/wingnuts.

There is no other side. Just a mythical neutral sensible centre.

Guffaw!

‘a new best friend who says he can’t or won’t work with a non-Coalition government to deliver a better future for Queensland and Australia’

Political gamesmanship, Abbott has his infrastructure hat on and is trying it out for size. Of course he will work with a leftoid state guvmint, after all, Qld is still part of Oz.

‘you can award yourself some kind of victory over meaningless point scoring if you like, but you’ve actually said nothing worthwhile’

I strongly disagree, Tony clearly elucidated what the left think. The left is in denial about their origins, but are happy to slander the Abbott government as fascists.

Yes. The Federal Election.

ROFL. Apart from Melbourne (at the last election at least, who got a whopping jump away from Labor) it looks to be a pretty even spread 😯

Does that mean that not of the right means Left ❓

When you deny Labor is a party of the left, you’ve run out of arguments.

Wow, just recently, the argument was you couldn’t see between Labor and the Libs. Labor haven’t been “Left” for decades. As AO said, centrist, which, as I pointed out, to some, automatically means “teh Left” 😉

In reality Labor is centre left and the Coalition is centre right, while the Greens are watermelons, the new communists.

The argument could be made centre left or centre right, depending on the particular policy area. You cannot describe their asylum seeker “policy” as left? And their economic one is fairly well split down the middle.

It is an argument da right play, as they move further to the right, then what was called “centrist” years ago has now become, to them at least, “left”

Sorry, but, even going on those results, inner city seems to be pretty centrist, unless you adhere to the rule of “not right = left”

It is the same way they label theirabc. If it isn’t to the right of murdoch, it is, by their definition, lefty.

And then allows anything written therein to be labelled “a lefty rag”, and dismissed out of hand.

Well, sorry, I reject that, it is newpaper, aimed at people with a very wide spread of views, so is centrist.

Rags like “The Socialist Alternative” etc are “teh left”. Don’t try and lump every paper that is not murdoch as leftist. The middle ground covers a lot of area. Cope with it.

Another “lefty rag” on muir

Ricky Muir is moving out of the shadow of Clive Palmer, describing his agreement with the Palmer United Party as nothing more than a ”loose alliance” and warning the government not to assume he will vote with PUP.

The Australian Motoring Enthusiast Party senator’s claim to independence provides another headache for the Coalition, which will attempt for a third time on Monday or Tuesday to corral a chaotic crossbench into voting to abolish the carbon tax.

http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/after-a-week-of-clive-muir-ready-to-rev-up-20140712-3btrs.html

I do like the way that even “lefty rags” describe ANYBODY who is not noalition as “chaotic”

It seems to be one thing left and right can agree on 😉

Rusted-on barrackers are desperate to claim the term “centrist”, in direct denial of Labor’s history and founding principles.

“The Australian Labor Party is a democratic socialist party and has the objective of the democratic socialisation of industry, production, distribution and exchange, to the extent necessary to eliminate exploitation and other anti-social features in these fields … commitment to and participation in the international democratic socialist movement as represented by the Socialist International”

The greatest uncertainty is with the rejection of DAP by the pups, leaving Australian free and clear of any further folly. What I’m suggesting is that Abbott won’t fight for DAP because its only a sop.

Perhaps you should measure them in what they are today

he greens are still 2/3 radical left …,/i>

Hard to disagree with that, except the percentage might even be higher.

I’d rather take the clarification of what they call a democratic socialist party

Objectives 2. The Australian Labor Party is a democratic socialist party and has the objective of the democratic socialisation of industry, production, distribution and exchange, to the extent necessary to eliminate exploitation and other anti-social features in these fields.

context I think they call it

‘Are we are gonna read in the paper that you are Monktons Gay lover?’

You have overstepped the mark, on this issue I cannot confirm or deny.

Guffaw @ the Hitlerwasaleftist movement, now seeking to impose absolutes in Australian contemporary politics…

“seeking to impose absolutes”

If presenting facts supported by documentary evidence is “imposing absolutes”, then yes.

“North Korea claims to be ‘democratic’ too.”

That’s nice. Labor claims to be – and is – a democratic socialist party. Is democratic socialism a leftist ideology, or not?

Hmmm, I’d prefer to judge them on what they do, rather than some intangible mission statement.
IMO, not too much of what the ALP does is radically socialist at all.

I can see why the Greens, comparative to the Big Two, are deemed ‘leftist’.

But Labor supports a myriad of positions which occupy centre right fetish. Asylum seekers, faux-free trade agreements etc.

It’s almost as if you can’t conceive that cynical political Partys could claim one thing while enacting another?

It’s not surprising that US conservative politics enthusiasts would see something like universal healthcare as ‘socialism’, but in our context it’d still be just ‘universal healthcare’.

(Sigh. So many alleged socialists, so little time to criticize them all.)

“ROFL. Apart from Melbourne (at the last election at least, who got a whopping jump away from Labor) it looks to be a pretty even spread :shock:”

Melbourne: Labor/Greens 69.22% of the electorate
Sydney: Labor/Greens 63.36%
Camberra: Labor Greens 53.73%

This is the readership Schwartz is targeting. Left-leaning, I’d say.

“no government I lead will do any dodgy deals with minor parties and independents””

Man you people are dishonest. Have you no shame??

Abbott said he would do no deals with minor parties to form govt. And he didn’t. Of course he will have to make deals with minor parties to get legislation through.

One thing i have noticed with Labor/Greens supporters is that you tell falsehoods that is why i do not believe anything a Green/ALP supporter says.

Wow just another nasty comment adding nothing to the debate.

It i also another reason why i do not believe anything a ALP/Greens supporter says.

People full of hate and nastiness only tell falsehoods. After all these years i cannot understand the hate that comes from the left of politics.

Importantly the frustration and anger the left feel with this democracy thingy is palpable.

AO

Abbott said he would do no deals with minor parties and independents to FORM govt. I guess he saw what happened with Gillard having to give Oakshot and Windsor all sorts of things to form govt.

He never said he would never deal with minor parties if he won govt.

Clearly, bolt’s rearguard hairsplitting has germinated in impressionable vacant minds.

‘Ignorant, emotive stupidity isn’t the exclusive domain of any single side’

This is probably the biggest flaw with democracy, it breeds mediocracy.

May I suggest a benevolent dictatorship of the Chinese variety, retaining the democratic vote for the second and third tiers. Its a revolutionary concept.

Presently serving in the parliament.

So are religious conservatives.

If there is a DD it will be colourful.

“Mean spirited, cruel, selfish, self centred, nasty, lacking empathy? Absolutely! ”

Maybe so.

But i don’t believe we should be borrowing money if we cannot afford it. Worse is that 70% of our debt has to be funded from overseas. So of our $1B/month interest payments on our debt means that $700M/month of that money goes overseas to foreigners who lent us the money.

‘You are suffering confirmation bias.’

Maybe, won’t know for a couple of weeks.

But i don’t believe we should be borrowing money if we cannot afford it.

Neither did the previous Government

The Government is still on track to return to surplus at the end of the forward estimates. Since the Budget, the Government has made $17.4 billion of responsible savings decisions, which have made a significant contribution to offsetting the impact of revenue write‑downs in 2015‑16 and 2016‑17 (Table 5). This return to surplus is achieved with lower terms of trade, which means that, compared to the Budget, the structural position of the budget has been improved at the end of the forward estimates.

http://www.budget.gov.au/2013-14/content/economic_statement/html/04_fiscal_outlook.htm

‘No maybe about it.’

If Clive plays ball on the repeal of the tax on a harmless trace gas, all should go well, giving Abbott breathing space.

Later on there will be other hurdles, like the Renewable abolition, lots of triggers just laying about.

At its best the ALP can be reformist, but it hasn’t been at its best for about 2 decades.

Mind you, I’d argue that one. The last Government got quite a bit of progressive legislation through and many reforms started.

NDIS, Gonski, NBN, Carbon Pricing, all in the shadow of the worlds largest economic downturn since the Great Depression, and mostly with a belligerent opposition and media in a hung parliament.

And I could imagine much more reform without all of these obstacles, including the internal one.

But that’s lefties for ya 😉

You’re not getting away with that shite

It would be better for all if he just took those repeated and reputed lies out the back to peddle to the already insane.

Ah, yes, Graeme….we acknowledge Graeme’s recent indication that he feels that now is a good time for him to move on from his former position at the HRC, thank him again for his extensive public service, and wish him all the very best in his future endeavours.

In particular, we would like to wish him well in any future robust debates with freed freespeakers and in not re-visiting any migration or general detention locations to ensure that social contract changes necessitating facility closures, facility openings and facility upgrades under an enhanced basic human rights framework are performing to the world-class standards for which we are renowned and of which we are rightly proud.

And, of course, as a prominent member of the disability community and longtime enablement advocate, we know he will welcome a renewed whole-of-government emphasis on treating the disabled with extra care, no matter their personal circumstance. Ideally, for Graeme, that might mean being neither seen nor heard, for instance.)

If I’ve told you once I’ve told you a thousand times, do that shit out the back.

In Eggs defense i think someone else brought up the topic. He of course was eager to reply but i don’t think he started it.

But since you lefties believe in AGW, it therefore has to be wrong.

I also see the opinion polls are saying that most Australians want more punishment by bringing back the ALP who can only funds things by going into debt.

‘In Eggs defense i think someone else brought up the topic.’

Bit of a low blow there Tom.

Do you really believe the ALP would reduce debt? How many times did Swan promise a surplus budget? How many ALP govts since 1980 either Sate or Federal have reduced debt??

The ALP makes the Coalition look nasty because they always have a mess to clean up.

(retorting with ad-hom`s and claims of not understanding, should not be attempted by those not bright enough to click the lone link Tinfoil`osy)

(Reading down the thread, it wasn’t the “deniers” who started discussing this taboo topic, although it did start out as talk of mandate or otherwise for an ETS.)

Just because you asked some barely literate and hardly comprehensible “question” doesn’t mean It deserves a response. However, as it happens, I am all for jihadists talking about their true agenda in public forums.

“retorting with ad-hom`s”

Says the king of ad homs. You might have noticed, or probably not, that I reserve any name calling for you alone. It’s not usually my style, but you won’t be civil, so I won’t be civil back.

“And that certainly applies to Costello … the Treasurer who lost $10 billion … ”

TB- nasty as always.

Costello produced $110B in surplus budgets and sold $70B of assets so he saved $110+$70= $180B in 11 years taking govt debt from 18% of GDP to zero and starting a $80B Future Fund.

Hawke/Keating took govt debt from 6% of GDP to 18% of GDP and lost $80B. And that is not taking into account the assets Keating flogged off like Qantas, Comm Bank, CSL etc.

Hawke/Keating did not save a cent and who knows how much money Rudd/Swan lost. Rudd/Swan also did not save a cent. Notice the similarity?? ALP govts always produce debt.

Like all ALP supporters you have no shame and do not care for the truth.

“did Costello predict the GFC, BTW”

Dunno. But we know Swan/Treasury didn’t. Swans first budget in May 2008 was designed to fight inflation.. Four months later in September 2008 the GFC hit.

The Liberals look meanspirited, because they are.

So think those suckers who voted for ’em also

Christopher Pyne – architect of the higher education cuts that will make a degree cost more like a mortgage – may be perennially unpopular as the Minister for Education, but it turns out he’s also unpopular as the Member for Sturt.

At the most recent election, Pyne held a margin of 10 percent, making Sturt a relatively safe seat. But if an election were held at the end of June, Pyne would have lost his seat with just 45 per cent of the vote. That’s a swing of 15 per cent to Labor.

https://newmatilda.com/2014/07/14/higher-ed-poll-predicts-pyne-gone-coalition-wiped-out

And that’s blue collar heaven (same area as a recent lib went over to Labor)

…and the ALP look like blundering incompetents for the same reason.

Funny, Parliament was actually running smoothly except for the whirling dervish flogging all the limelight. Legislation getting passed like Labor had a clear majority. Now, with a clear majority, the gubamint looks like a minority. Now it really IS KAOS

“but you have told me to “get fucked” … sometime this year …”

Not sure about that, but I did call you a control freak not so long ago.

“But then, we are both ‘extremists’, after a fashion…”

I know. It’s lonely out here on the fringes. but I wouldn’t have it any other way. 🙂

I’m not having a feud with TB. He may think otherwise, but I’ve grown quite fond of the cantankerous old fool him over the last seven years or so.

While you’re here, Tom R, thread-copping doesn’t become you.

I’ll take the tip, it’s on the shopping list.

“You’re like an economic version of a climate change denialist. Is it time for your own thread?”

Get stuffed Tom R. Why should i believe anything published by Swan/treasury?

http://www.budget.gov.au/2012-13/content/speech/html/speech.htm

“The four years of surpluses I announce tonight are a powerful endorsement of the strength of our economy, resilience of our people, and success of our policies………..This Budget delivers a surplus this coming year, on time, as promised, and surpluses each year after that, strengthening over time.”

(only good for a laff)

At the risk of giving away personal details, like my age, I saw the Bon Scott version of AC/DC live at the Korumburra Mother Rock festival.*

*Disclaimer: I was very underaged at the time.

Never got to see them with Bon Scott (although I’ve talked to a few who were at that concert I linked to at the Apollo)

He was a one of kind, which says a lot I think about the band to be able to come back bigger ( and better?) and with another very distinct front man.

Sorry i don’t believe anything published by Swan/Treasury or any of your opinions on anything.

So 😯

it really doesn’t change the facts just because you want to spend your life with eyes wide shut.

Back in ’76 (when I was just a babe in arms 😉 ) AC/DC were different enough to be interesting. They were an antidote to pop.

” Had you seen the series?”

Yes, loved it. As did a few others here, I suspect.

it really doesn’t change the facts just because you want to spend your life with eyes wide shut.

I posted “the facts” from Swans second last budget which were shown to be wrong but you expect me to believe the predictions from Swans last budget.

Your the man who believes what you want to believe. The evidence/fact is that Swan got ALL his predictions wrong. But you expect me to believe his last prediction before he lost office.

You are totally deluded. No wonder you believe in AGW.

“Bill: AC/DC, Hush, Ariel, Little River Band, Billy Thorpe, Ted Mulry Gang, Ayers Rock, Jim Key’s Southern Cross, Morning Glory.”

Wish I’d been old enough to appreciate it. 😉

Wish I’d been old enough to appreciate it.

But ya still young enuff to brag I note 😆

Yeah, I was underage at the Palais back then…

“But ya still young enuff to brag I note”

Okay, here’s the truth. In 1976 I was 16. You work it out. 😯

Oh the ignominy

‘You make the assumption, (within the question) that the solution is linear,’

That is incorrect, there is no solution.

More lies, but will the msm in general hold him to it?

Towards the end of question time on Monday, shadow treasurer Chris Bowen asked a question that was never going to get an answer but which went to the heart of a disquiet reverberating through business ever since last Thursday’s carbon tax Palmer melodrama.

But on whether the PM would make any guarantees that voters would now reap a boom of falling prices, you will be astonished to know the Prime Minister was a little more cautious. “Every single Australian should [our italics] be better off when the carbon tax is gone,” he said.

http://www.afr.com/p/national/bowen_asks_hard_questions_about_ErifNCSrLlfVjTJLpHXG4I

And I’m now convinced JJ was Lotharsson not Lambert.

You are also convinced that 97% of scientists are lying to us all. It obviously doesn’t take a lot to convince you of any conspiracy theory does it?

A comment

There is no doubt our earth is warming and our seas rising – or that humankind is the cause. There is no evidence to refute this – or any genuine scientific counterargument in the climate change debate. This is not “absolute crap”. It is the inescapable truth.

If we do not act, the consequences will be severe. It is predicted we will endure more droughts, more bushfires, more floods, more storms – more extremes. The damage to our coasts, our farmland, our forests and our animal life will be irretrievable – and irreversible. And today, we must decide whether Australia will step up and play our part.

http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jul/14/australia-has-a-choice-join-others-to-combat-climate-change-or-stand-alone

I’m not sure that simply passing legislation is the hallmark of good government.

Gillard and Swan will be remembered for the blunders
• Continually missing budget forecasts
• Continually missing the NBN rollout targets
• Going to an election promising one policy of carbon, and doing the opposite in government
• Acting dishonestly about poker machine reform
• Cattle exports
• How many policies on asylum seekers?

Passing lots and lots of legislation may not indicate orderly, disciplined government.

it’s their ABC

For those of you who watched Ruddock on Q&A last night being all moderate and pretending like he was a nice caring guy two words define him..”Children Overboard”…

See I have a long memory unlike the current generation oblivious to the propaganda of these criminally heinous liars.. Lets take a trip down memory lane and negate all Phillip’s high moral ground peppered with pseudo heartfelt explanations in one clip for what they are… Blatant political opportunism at the expense of extreme suffering from the weak, persecuted and oppressed masquerading as caring; a tactic that this government has taken to another level.

The Fiberals are good at turning propaganda into a big moral high horse are riding it around claiming its community standards,. good for us we should thank them all the while claiming it’s what “the people” want our “mandate”. This is how they sell their brand of divisive social engineering..T

CUT THE AUSTRALIAN BRAINWASHING CORP

(It’s okay, Tom R et al; now that good, strong Aussie dollars have almost been saved from Nigerian ETS scam artists and other dubious foreigners in Eastern Europe and the Subcontinent, journalists can go back to interrogating Lord Deb’s strawman safe in the knowledge that bringing the floating exchange price on carbon emissions forward by 12-months won’t be happening; because the tax has been axed and the axe has been taxed, the Clean Energy Package has been terminated and germinated, Australia finally will be pulling its weight on a negligible trace gas measured in gigatons with a zeroed-out big-new-ETS in the offing, and institutional memory is a centrefold which has been sold on page 3 of the pamphlet.)

Strange coincidence.

And we currently have a far right ratbag gubamint intent on unwinding a range of initiatives, that benefited a wide range of Australians, implemented by the party “of nothing”

They obviously stand for something, for the far right to be so upset about it all.

Funny how ‘teh left’ complain about Labor apparently standing for “nothing” so often (comically picked up and amplified by ‘hte right’). Is it just because they don’t fight hard enough for their specific cause?

Sorry they couldn’t fill ALL of your little basket, but, that doesn’t mean they don’t stand for anything, just that they don’t stand for everything you want.

But, as for your first three, they are just listening to the experts in the field. Convince the experts, and I’m pretty sure you’ll have Labor on side. They tend to side with them

Although, I’m pretty sure it is currently possible to have medical marijuana legally, I don’t know much about iboga, and voluntary euthanasia I am currently not a fan of, although, I’m really still on the fence with it. So, in that case, I’ll definitely side with the medical profession.

Hey Egg without prattling on about the stuff you are banned from deluding yourself about .

I’m interested to understand why you hate the ABC so much? because as an amateur scientist you seem to be an amateur media analyst…

or is it because they have to report actual factual science and not share your delusional stupidity..

Name me one instance in the past 5 years where the ABC have been successfully cited from ACMA for being factually incorrect in reporting?

Cough up the facts please…. or is it just a “Vibe”?

The Chaser went to court and was settled.. where are all these infringements of bias? Please provide examples…

you do realize tom-R that,

”””and a Labor party which apparently stands for nothing.”””

is dentons statement from his matilda post, not mine,

to the majority, uninterested, unrusted voters, an understandable, fair and `different` basket of `options` need to be offered by `all` teams/candidates,

(while no matter what others baskets offer, the red or blue team-followers always see their team as `saints` and see the other `team` as evil),

when it came to the kyoto action, there was a failure to recognize that the window was closing on world-to-act consensus, squandered by the JohnW and GeorgeW regimes. To some of us, the Copenhagen failure was predicted/foreseeable.

‘I’m interested to understand why you hate the ABC so much? because as an amateur scientist you seem to be an amateur media analyst…’

I have a Masters in Comm, which has equipped me well over the years. Aunty is generally unbiased and balanced on most things. Primarily its the elephant in the room that I cannot abide.

(Pssst, admitting to having a Masters in Communicationism is only likely to draw attention to the Kandy Konsortium.)

On the question of ABC bias, Victoria Rollison sees it from a different viewpoint.

‘….an intelligent producer and interviewer would aim to find balance in the very questions they ask, so to provide an insight into the two sides of an argument within the one segment of news that they’ve given over to a particular topic for a limited amount of time.’

‘I don’t accept your premise’

That’s fine, but the ABC is publicly funded and should adopt Rollison’s suggestion.

Victoria Rollinson? I put the same question to her and melted like an icecream.. she has a marketing degree…big fucking deal..she like you are not experts on media strategy or procedural delivery, nor (judging by her article) a good journalist. I don’t see that she has worked as a journalist, producer or in any other media organisation other than writing a fucking Blog.

She So the difference between you and me Egg, is I work in the industry across multi disciplines (TV Radio, Digital and Print and have two masters degrees in Media.. I can smell ballance and bullshit a mile away…

I have asked the same question of maybe 20 people and nobody can give me a reasonably substantiated answer. Do you know why that is? The ABC have a very strict chain of command and code that has procedural imperatives..if you break it you are fucked.

So I will take that as a no contest then…

No we disagree about you being a scientist.. The elephant in the room has been addressed at length and in detail on The ABC you just don’t like the answer. What would you have them do slot your beliefs into the childrens programming under fairytales.

The detractors have had their forum..its newsworthy so the ABC like all the other news and science content providers are gunning for newsworthy stuff..its just the counter culture’s have not cut the mustard…That lying delusional fruitcake Monkton addressed the Press club on the ABC paid for by the IPA ffs…:roll: that is the reality from which you are deluded..there is no elephant, just piles of shit masquerading as some type of counter argument that is demanding the same attention as the overwhelming reality like a crying spoilt child

I don’t agree to disagree about ABC bias.. because you cannot provide me with any examples of such…Nobody can that is my point..So you are fucking bold faced stone cold wrong. Devoid of factual proof and irrefutably incorrect.

I’ll put something up out the back if time permits.

It’s fascinating when people use such intelligent analogies as football to explain politics.

‘I’m no longer a virgin. In fact I’ve now done it twice this year. I’ve been a panellist on the ABC’s Q&A television show.

‘I know that a lot of people on the right side of politics think that all the top ABC current affairs TV shows have been captured by the broad church that is comprised of renewable energy rent-seekers, human rights lawyers and crusaders, big spending Keynesians, university feminists, corporatists, despisers of Murdoch, and inner-city lefties generally. And given that not a single, solitary person with a right of centre background can be found hosting any of these ABC shows, or producing any of them, you can be forgiven for thinking that too. You see in law, where I work, we deal in the appearance of bias, not in bias itself. None of us can see into the heart of another and know for sure his or her motivations. So it’s the “look of the thing” that matters.’

Seeing as you are posting ridiculous bullshit.. I think Scott is a bit closer to the truth that that fucking Tory Space Cadet..

Who knows, Bagz might watch this and absorb some of it by osmosis. Then again, probably not.

I have vivid memories of Kandy’s Tooth Fairy, beating drums and heavy incense, very impressive. They also have a spare tooth in Singapore, apparently.

‘The Buddha Tooth Relic Temple & Museum is a Tang-Styled Chinese Buddhist Temple in the heart of Chinatown. The temple features many facets of Buddhist arts and culture of Singapore. It also houses what the Buddhists regard as the Sacred Buddha Tooth Relic in a stupa weighing 3.5 tonnes and composed of 320 kg of gold donated by devotees.’

BEIJING – ‘China’s home prices continued a downward trend in more cities in June, pointing to a sluggish property market that is complicating the broader economy as growth falters, official data showed on Friday.’
