 Howard displaces Obama in Blair House
quill, Wednesday, Jan 7 2009, 7:58pm
Australia’s Obama-bashing, racist, conservative former PM, John ‘deputy sheriff’ Howard, is currently occupying the traditional premises of the President Elect prior to inauguration, the historic Blair House in Washington. Obama and family have been forced to play second fiddle to Howard who is in Washington to receive an award from Bush. Forcing the President Elect to defer to a former leader of an insignificant little, servile nation of cringing cowards and lackeys is a disgrace – skin colour continues to matter in America it seems! The displacement was clearly intentional; self-confessed racist, John Howard, is well-pleased at the 'honour' accorded him by his partner in crime, G W Bush. However, the shame associated with this despicable act is all America's! (story and 2 images)

Exposing God, the root of the Problem!
finch, Tuesday, Jan 6 2009, 11:22pm
Everything we know, including our knowledge of ‘God,’ NECESSARILY (must) refer back to the source of production of that knowledge, HUMANITY! That rather obvious fact should be self-evident, however, few are able to appreciate the clarity and simplicity of TRUTH – have you not yet noticed that everything we know of ‘God’ has been PRODUCED and encoded BY MAN? Furthermore, all man-made Gods are peculiar to and described by the idiosyncrasies of the cultures that created/produced them! (story and 2 images)

The nation’s First Family smiles while the blood of innocents flows
quin, Monday, Jan 5 2009, 7:26am
What an utterly tragic and perfect disgrace. The first family of the USA is all smiles while other ‘less human’ families and children are blown to bits or lay dying in hospitals deprived of medicines and supplies – the result of an Israeli blockade and murderous attack on Gaza! We are reminded of the Clinton embargo on Iraq which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of innocent Iraqi ‘sub-human’ children; a price considered “worth it” by former Democrat Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright -- a taste of things to come!

 Government propaganda ministry biggest advertiser in UK!
quill, Sunday, Jan 4 2009, 1:11am
Now there’s a revealing little morsel (see insert), but not a complete surprise as it matches proportional increases in advertising spending by the Australian and other Western governments – the propaganda expenditure in the USA, the nation with the most to hide and disguise, cannot be assessed as the figure is astronomical! Donald Rumsfeld, as Secretary of Defence, couldn’t account for $2.3 TRILLION, which ‘somehow’ disappeared in his Department, what hope then for accurate figures from thousands of agencies servicing various governments across the USA?

Nice try, but …
dev null, Sunday, Dec 28 2008, 9:10pm
The British PM, Gordon Brown, sent as clear a message with his recent “save the world” slip/gaffe in the British Commons as did grotesque rodent and former Oz PM, John Howard upon his return to Oz post 9/11. Howard’s body language spoke volumes at the time though his mouth spewed the usual LIES. Howard, as recorded on national TV news, behaved as though he was ducking a magpie attack, yet no dive-bombing maggies or other tangible threats from overhead were evident, very revealing behaviour indeed! Howard had just been briefed in Washington on the new world order -- as America fantasised it – he was clearly not a happy, CRINGING, LACKEY, COWARD at the time! (story and 1 image)

Keeping it simple – so Americans understand!
nano, Saturday, Dec 27 2008, 10:22pm
Contributors and editors have decided to apply the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) principle to the majority of future posts. It became apparent over time that many people find even pedestrian English difficult to comprehend – no prizes! We have also decided to use language in an offensive manner (both meanings apply) as Evangelicals, space cadets and other assorted losers, run in horror when confronted with colourful words like ‘FUCK’ etc; these ‘mental lepers’ cringe when they encounter the 'SHIT' word -- preferring to use the ridiculous and infantile ‘poo’ instead! We should not forget that these are the same people that do not hesitate to install AND SUPPORT known morons, con-men and mass murderers as their Presidents and leaders. (story and 2 comments)

Do not focus on this FACT, for Christ’s sake!

Little question all thinking people should ask – and it seems they are an endangered species these days -- how many US or NATO forces/soldiers have been tried for war crimes and other crimes against humanity at the Hague since 1999? Answer: none! A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! Now do a little research and discover for yourselves how many INNOCENT CIVILIANS these forces murder on a DAILY basis! A very high price is extracted for transforming your brains into soup, you mindless fuckin’ morons.

Merry fuckin' Christmas
yarra, Wednesday, Dec 24 2008, 10:59pm
Everything once considered sacred in Western society -- the free market is God -- is falling apart in the most dramatic and public manner. All excuses based on ignorance evaporated with your jobs, savings and homes. Excuses based on a lack of information, knowledge or PROOF are all INVALID after Cheney CONFIRMED on national television that he is a war criminal and torturer! Almost all your leaders have been exposed as puppets, buffoons and/or mass murderers – the pillars of your society proved to be made of chalk. Everything you have been taught as Truth has been exposed as LIES – it’s all coming down as I write; a $50 billion fraud here and there is nothing compared to a $700 billion bailout that blew out to $8.5 trillion in weeks – I can hardly contain my laughter – you pathetic, spineless, turds!

Update: Internet Censorship Trials in Oz
Kismo, Tuesday, Dec 23 2008, 10:38pm
Communications Minister, Stephen ‘errand boy’ Conroy -- who couldn’t make an accurate decision to save his life -- is the latest Oz politician to adopt feeble American semantic tricks in order to dupe an unwary public. Conroy released new information, at the eleventh hour, that he intends to include filters for P2P and Torrent applications, which are primarily used to download movie and music files!

Yep, we are now getting it served up for breakfast on a daily basis! Did you think there was something slightly amiss when the Bush administration described TORTURE/waterboarding as “enhanced interrogation,” for Pete’s sake! Or how about describing invasion, plunder and mass murder as spreading “liberty, democracy and freedom,” for fuck’s sake? There are now hundreds of such linguistic travesties littering our culture thanks to the criminals, rogues and MURDERERS WE ALLOWED to occupy positions of influence and power.

Is this ‘Hope?’
finch, Saturday, Dec 20 2008, 8:49pm
Obama’s reaction to ONGOING Wall St. fraud and insider Bankster secrecy falls EXTREMELY short of the expectations of REFORM that HE created during HIS fraudulent election campaign!
Confronting the latest outrageous example ($50b) of ongoing CRIMINAL FRAUD from yet another ROBBER BARON, Bernard Madoff, Obama revealed his feebleness, weakness and reticence; the best he could offer in full view of the largest fraud in American/world history was, regulators "fell asleep at the switch" and “dropped the ball” – for Pete’s sake – more ambiguous, meaningless metaphors, reminiscent of the linguistic chicanery of the outgoing administration. The people are not amused! (story and 3 comments and 2 images)

Kevin Rudd risks becoming the toilet paper PM of world history
Kingfisher, Friday, Dec 19 2008, 12:00am
As the US makes plans to close its infamous, excised detention centre, Guantanamo ‘torture’ Bay; Australia opens its newly built, high tech, excised detention/torture centre on ‘Christmas’ Island -- just in time for Christmas! We should all note that Rudd pretends, among myriad other posturings, to be a Christian! WHO ARE YOU TRYING TO KID, RUDD, you reprehensible, performing worm? Tell it to the banjo-playing yanks!

Setting agendas and stealing debates ..
budgie, Tuesday, Dec 16 2008, 1:31am
is an art form in which, it seems, few excel, nevertheless it remains ‘the principal, most important’ (I’m practicing American grammar) tool of modern, GLOBAL politics. The reasons are obvious; in a world of instant communications the ‘battle for the dominant discourse’ or rather for the attention/focus of the moronic masses is paramount – the future VIABILITY of Barack Obama is being compromised as I write due to the WORLD focusing on his GLARING DISREGARD of the war and other crimes against humanity committed by the outgoing administration!

Rudd displays real Aussie ‘backbone’ while in Indonesia
barra, Thursday, Dec 11 2008, 9:57pm
None of us imagined in our wildest imaginings that anyone could beat the record of cowardice and servility set by former PM, John ‘rodent’ Howard. However, Kevin ‘custard face’ Rudd, has recently CONFIRMED that he is indeed the most spineless leader Oz has ever known! Our Kevin has set a new benchmark of servility and dog-cowering cowardice, which unfortunately stains ALL Australians everywhere; do us proud Kevin, Oink! (story and 1 image)

The Sons of Cain
finn, Wednesday, Dec 10 2008, 3:36am
It is appropriate that the home of democracy reminds us never to tolerate oppression, violence and corruption from non-representative minority governments that have subverted the democratic process and stolen power. We are all reminded of the price extracted when we fail to be vigilant; the murder of a 15 year-old boy in Greece by the reviled authorities and the one million innocent civilian dead in Iraq are consequences of allowing criminals to seize power and failing to act swiftly to remove them. The horrendous death toll inflicted by America in Iraq is the result of OUR INACTION in the face of FLAGRANT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. (story and 3 comments and 2 images)

The semiotic ‘burning bush!’
quill, Monday, Dec 8 2008, 6:34pm
In response to authorities shooting dead a (15yo) youth in Athens, Greek anarchists made their sentiments known to the nation via DIRECT ACTION. Demonstrations included setting a large, (capitalist) Xmas tree alight! [At times signs and symbols converge to deliver a wealth of meaning; no further elaboration required; the flaming tree says it all!] (story and 1 image)

Internet Censorship in Oz bashed by dominant Telco
quill, Friday, Dec 5 2008, 10:04pm
It is becoming abundantly clear to every Australian that the Rudd Labor Government hasn’t a clue. After one year in office the PM, Kevin ‘07’ (Dud) and his pack of no-hoper ministers have demonstrated their collective inability to deal with the major issues confronting the nation; not least of which is upgrading the archaic broadband network -- known to be a liability on all users, especially the business, medical, scientific and agricultural/rural communities.
