 Australia’s leading Academic Advocate for a Carbon Tax – NOT qualified! posted by nano, 2011-03-10 21:06:39
Professor Ross Garnaut has been leading the push for a carbon economy for some time, however, opposition Senator Nick Minchin revealed to the public that Garnaut is a Professor of ECONOMICS (what!) -- makes sense to me and carbon tax originators, GOLDMAN SACHS -- but it sure blows a hole in Garnaut’s credibility on the issue.

 Gillard grovels with relish in her speech to Congress posted by snowy, 2011-03-10 09:05:48
In an unparalleled performance of complete subservience and subordination, Oz PM Julia Gillard, committed HERSELF (thankfully, she was not speaking for the majority of Aussies) to ALL America’s CRIMINAL wars without reservation. She indirectly praised the ideology of Wall St and the Federal Reserve system, which has ruined the global economy – a ‘minor’ detail for a sycophant -- and generally sucked even harder than Catherine the Great in her address to a joint-session of Congress.

Assange: the Price of Infamy posted by Kismo, 2011-03-09 23:18:40
I couldn’t help but publish this amusing excerpt from an article by Sergei Varshavchik, in RIA Novosti, titled, “Saving Private Assange” – ‘saving Assange’s privates,’ may have been more appropriate considering his current legal predicament; however, it seems ‘glamour boy’ Assange is griping bitterly over the fact that director Steven Spielberg, a very pro-American Jew, is ignoring Assange’s own biased memoirs in favour of other biased accounts from The Guardian team, in order to produce yet another biased account in movie form; in literary circles it's called ‘metafiction!’ Perhaps now Assange may learn the value of ANONYMITY in his profession – roflmfao?

Censorship addicted Oz LABOR government – have WE had enough yet? posted by dasha, 2011-03-09 21:36:30
The latest PATERNALISTIC, unnecessary, social intervention by Gillard’s -- the most unpopular Labor Government in Australian history -- emanates from yet another anal Labor minister who wishes to apply the RC ‘refused classification’ category, a Stephen Conroy invented euphemism for overt CENSORSHIP, to smartphone apps – what next? Give the Oz public a break and just piss off, or cop a hiding at the elections that would go down in history. (full story)

 Michael Moore addresses the ‘whipped-dog,’ moronic, paralysed, AMERICAN masses posted by Michael Moore via stan, 2011-03-06 20:58:15
Contrary to what those in power would like you to believe so that you'll give up your pension, cut your wages, and settle for the life your great-grandparents had, America is not broke. Not by a long shot. The country is awash in wealth and cash. It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks and the portfolios of the uber-rich. (full story)

 Western Media Blackout on Second National day of Rage in Iraq posted by Dirk Adriaensens via stele, 2011-03-05 18:59:28
It will soon become apparent to the entire WORLD, regardless of all the feeble attempts by the western media to suppress the Truth of over one million civilian deaths, a HOLOCAUST by definition, 5 million displaced persons and a ruined state.
The West's attempts to Balkanise Iraq -- fragment a single nation into numerous, powerless statelettes for easier 'management' -- HAVE FAILED, as the IRAQI PEOPLE realise their only hope for future peace, stability and PROSPERITY is UNITY of will and purpose.
The Iraqi people today vigorously oppose all corruption, puppet government, geographic and social divisions within their nation and will continue to RESIST until ALL FOREIGN CRIMINAL INVADERS have been removed from THEIR traditional lands.
Be advised all western occupying criminal forces responsible for numerous war and other crimes committed against the Iraqi people that your days in Iraq are numbered! (full story)
