Maybe our dear leader is smarter than we give him credit for. Just imagine an Australia with only the people that we like?!!! Wouldn't that be the nearest we would get to "heaven on Earth"?!! Our dear leader has let out another one of his "fart bubbles" (yes, a bit crude may be, but they do have a nasty stench to them and they clearly don't come from a thinking mind!!). Strip people of their citizenships for being freedom fighters, ooops. . . I mean terrorists!!! Many aspects of this fart bubble are problematic let alone the very basic one of the definition of Terrorism. I'm sure I need not repeat the saying that goes "one mans terrorist is . . . . ". Does that mean that every person who carries out an act of terror on other people will be stripped of their citizenship? Maybe half the teachers in schools, the policemen and undoubtedly the clergy will be on some bright orange boat soon, to some place that will have 'em! Why even my ...

Well done to the Aussie cricketers, they’ve won the world cup at home! An ACB strategy has come to fruition – we should all be glad. But the question is, was the world cup a great spectacle, like it usually is? Certainly the new rules made the batting spectacular with heaps of runs and sixes being scored and then there were the tense moments and games such as the noble Black caps win over the crass (let’s have another drink) Aussies and the 20 minutes of torcher dished out by the Pakistani fast bowlers at Watson (if only they could field and catch the sitters!). The magical four centuries in a row by Sanga and the brilliant scores by AB, Gale and Guptil. It certainly had it’s fair share of cricketing excellence on the field. But apart from the TV watchers, did anyone realise that the world cup was going on in Australia. There’s never been such a boring place to have a world cup than Australia. If not for the Sri Lankans and to some extent the Indians, it would have been such a flop. ...

Read article here Aly is smart to avoid offending the delicate sensibilities of the Aussie public - a strategy that ensures he remains in the mainstream public debate. But it does prevent him from addressing the real emotions and root causes that drive brilliant young men and women to leave the materialistic comforts enjoyed in the so called "developed" world and seek liberation in what must be the most hostile part of the world. It may be brain washing, but not of the type that occurs in dark, dingy smoke filled backrooms, as presented by our politicians. It is a childhood and adolescence of bullying and discrimination on every front and a complete denial of it's existence that drives this and is somewhat conveniently avoided by Aly. Hilter may have had only one and Geobbels none, but the Gung-ho-Saxon-white-supremacy-Crusader mob's Balls-up (solves the mystery of the missing testicles) in the Middle East, based on a fictitious book from the dark ages has resulted ...

Soon after the election in 2013, the Fiberals had a chain of boo boos. OK, it was new government maybe they were just learning a few things about being in government and with a Rhodes scholar at the helm, one could be excused for thinking that, they surely would turn things around. But the stuff-ups just kept on coming to the extent that the electorate became somewhat blasé  and the polls improved (see, there are many ways to improve the polls). Then came the almighty stuff-up – the budget. Finally, a couple of backbenchers gathered enough courage to question Mein Fuhrer and so we had the spill with no contender !!! The backbenchers haven’t, as yet, to my knowledge, been given special tablets and asked to do the honourable thing. But there clearly have been some casualties. So, on Monday, Mein Fuhrer remained as Mein Fuhrer. Loved the “March of support” in Fiberal uniform, of course!! The Fuhrer looked glorious surrounded by his bevy, most of whom no-one had seen before, includin...

Did anyone notice Scotty brushing up his image ( see here )?! When the article was first published there was an even more awkward pic with him in full attire standing on a beach with sand and water flowing between his toes!!! So, Scotty stopped the boats supposedly without lining the refugees up and shooting ‘em! All in secrecy, of course, for operational matters! I used to see his mug shot and think how similar he looked to some of Dubya’s secretive faceless neo con bunch – not doubt Scotty, with his line of thinking, would have fitted in perfectly. Almost as a joke on the Aussie public, Abbott has unleashed Scotty’s fascism on the next most needy group, the unemployed! It won’t be long before we have bright orange paddy wagons zooming the streets rounding up the new unemployed and dumping ‘em in ghettoes where they can’t be a scourge on the Aussie society (particularly the born-to-rule rich)! It will all be in secrecy, controlled by the SS enthusiastically calling out “Heil Scott...

  Rupert Murdoch Verified account ‏ @ rupertmurdoch Abbott again. Tough to write, but if he won't replace top aide Peta Credlin she must do her patriotic duty and resign. More 11:42 AM - 28 Jan 2015 So uncle Rupert says “Ditch the Witch”!!! This is quite an amusing action by uncle Rupes on many a front. As hard as one may try, it’s pretty hard to pin this particular stuff-up (the “knightmare”) on the “Witch”! I guess it’s all very simple from Uncle Rupes perspective. There are really only two palatable options and a third that isn’t – i.e. “Ditch the Witch” (Common Aussie parlance for sack the Chic), Boot the Lunie (Phoney) or jump ship (not too palatable). Not surprisingly Uncle Rupes goes for the “Ditch the Witch” – a conservative approach that is much aligned with the party die-hards and the ol’e dinosaur himself and an approach that is an everyday occurrence in the western corporate world. When the ship is sinking, first look for scapegoat options then nail the chic (ooo...

Aren’t we all glad that the silly-season is over and the clowns are gathering back at the great circus tent for the even-more-silly-season! Phony could barely wait till his vacation was over to start clowning around. So, the question is “what drives someone to give their boss a demotion?!!” Is it simply the fact that they can, is it plain ignorance and stupidity or is it a far more deep rooted urge? There has been much written about how stupid the knighthood thing is and that it has little significance to . . . ummmm. . .anyone, really!!! OK, the Duke may have to carry a bigger burden on his chest, which is already over-laden and of course, he might feel a tad offended by the cheek of the “spear throwing natives from the colony”. I can imaging the bureaucrats in London scrambling to the rules books to figure out if this joke was in fact legal and proper(!!) and if so can the colonies really demote a Prince(?) and will it be the Queen next? May be this business of having colonies tha...
