Ralph Nader Ralph Nader’s Fools Paradise posted by quill, 2011-04-21 05:43:14
Ralph Nader asks the rhetorical question: “What could start a popular resurgence in this country [comatose America] against the abuses of concentrated, avaricious corporatism?” Well, Ralph, in view of the open criminality of Wall St. Bankers and the heinous unpunished crimes of Washington war criminals, past and present, the short answer is, NOTHING!

Unrepresentative Oz Labor Party On the Nose posted by dasha, 2011-04-17 12:19:28
Figures released today by Fairfax media indicate that Gillard’s dysfunctional Labor government would suffer a huge defeat if an election were called today. I shan't bore you with statistical figures; however, I would outline some pertinent facts. (full story)

Gillard represents Corporate Interests Shamelessly Servile Gillard sets Corporatist agenda in Oz Budget posted by baz, 2011-04-13 10:52:17
Australia has never seen anything quite like Julia ‘gargle’ Gillard; we have seen Howard suck Bush, Rudd attempt to create an absurd ‘NATO of the South Pacific’ for Murdoch, Keating surrender our currency/sovereignty to Wall St, Whitlam condemn the Balibo 5 to their deaths and Hawke slobber over Israeli Zionism but Gillard takes the cake for complete, unquestionable, unflinching, OBEDIENCE and servitude to international Corporatists and Bankers.

'knee pads' Smith Oz Defence Minister Receives Death Threats posted by Ian McPhedran via beat up, 2011-04-12 11:55:46
In an very transparent and amateurish attempt to reclaim the front pages from former PM Rudd's recent revelation that current PM Julia Gillard opposed the ETS and stabbed Rudd in the back in order to displace him as PM, Gillard's media 'strategists' have fed novice reporters stories that the current defence minister, Stephen 'knee pads' Smith, received death threats after he unwisely and publicly poured scorn on senior defence officials.

Obama: fool me twice, why not? posted by kretino, 2011-04-06 22:53:01
Regardless of the now CONFIRMED HOPELESS and CHANGE NOTHING fraud President Obama's LACK of integrity, his billion dollar Corporate supporters will ensure his second term -- after all, moron Bush got two terms and so did his predecessors. It's the way things are done in Washington; Corporatists need two terms to extract value from their PUPPET presidents. (full story)

Duplicitous US lackey, Gillard The High Cost of Political Subservience posted by digby, 2011-04-04 11:30:33
The Oz PM, Julia Gillard, is about as popular as a fart in a lift at the moment. Her blind obedience to Wall Street and Washington's wishes to implement a back-breaking Carbon Tax is the primary reason the Australian public have rejected her. But as stated previously, she is NOT representative of the people, in fact, she regards locals with such contempt that she imagined she could REVERSE a previous promise never to introduce a Carbon Tax and maintain her viability.

Obama, puppet president Obama Libya Speech noted for Open Fascist Declaration posted by judd, 2011-03-31 09:37:17
Obama’s speech on Monday was a shocker! Not for its failure to convince anyone that Oil, gas and eliminating Gaddafi are not the primary objectives of the Libyan intervention, but for the fact that ruling Corporatist and Banker elites in the US no longer find it necessary to hide their true character or intentions.

Former NSW 'right' faction power broker, CIA lackey and Corporate friendly, Mark Arbib Confirmed, the Corporate 'Fix' killed NSW Labor posted by Jared Owens via stan, 2011-03-28 08:35:15
Former NSW Labor minister and Lord Mayor of Sydney, Frank Sartor, confirmed last night what everybody knows -- the Corporates had effectively taken control of the party via huge donations. And so ENDED any future viability for the once peoples' party of NSW/Australia. (full story)

Gillard and Abbott: Passive and Aggressive political EXTREMISM posted by nano, 2011-03-27 23:46:44
Gillard’s spineless Federal Labor government has been scurrying around like the rodents they are looking for a political response to the crushing defeat of Labor in the State of NSW and they think they’ve found a suitable diversionary tactic with which to distract the Australian public and also use as a defence against the constant barrage of onslaughts by Jesuit trained, Nazi attack dog, opposition leader, Tony Abbott!

Bye bye, Kristina NSW elections -- Kiss the Yank GOODBYE! posted by nann, 2011-03-25 23:00:03
What a thorough travesty it was enduring a NSW leader with a stinking American accent -- for pete's sake! What were Labor morons that placed that fellatrice in power thinking? No doubt exposed CIA lackey, Mark Arbib, played his part in creating one of the most devastating Labor defeats in the history of NSW politics -- good riddance to American rubbish and the thoroughly CORRUPT NSW (Labor) right.

Voting is NO LONGER about the Major Puppet Parties, it’s about real REPRESENTATION posted by smiley, 2011-03-24 20:45:04
With a State election less than 24 hours away in NSW it is now time to wake from the media-induced hypnosis and saturation coverage of two only major party candidates and REALISE Y-O-U are able to VOTE for ANYONE you please, preferably someone that REALLY REPRESENTS YOUR INTERESTS, as it is ABUNDANTLY CLEAR the MAJOR parties represent the BIG end of TOWN or the Corporatist agenda. And as everyone now knows Transnational Corporations are responsible for the wholesale rape and pillage of our natural resources and polluting the environment. Furthermore, corporations only return tiny fractions of the ENORMOUS PROFITS they plunder to the people and society. That is how UNREPRESENTATIVE government works! (full story)

The ‘Too Big To Fail’ Myth posted by quin, 2011-03-23 22:00:19
The world remembers the absurd excuse Wall St Bankers and Financiers used to blackmail and force government to handover trillions of dollars in public, taxpayer funds to ‘bail out’ the buffoons and criminals directly responsible for destroying the international economy. At the vanguard of this blackmail plot was a former director of Goldman (ETS) Sachs, then in the role as Chief of Treasury. [Can you imagine the job interview, Hank Paulson informing dubya Bush how and when he liked to be fellated?] (full story)

Brzezinski Zbigniew Brzezinski goes radical performing new role on political stage posted by Alexey Frolov via stele, 2011-03-21 19:04:56
Do not be misled by the title, Brzezinski has always been a radical arch-Imperialist supporting US world domination. He is an advisor to US presidents, the CFR and similar ELITIST institutions. The paper is an interesting take on his latest views, which could help explain recent attitudes and events in the Middle East and North Africa but it should not be taken at face value -- the man is an unabashed Imperialist and is certainly correct in his assessment of an overwhelming tide of opposition against the civilian killing, mass murdering, Corporatist filth known as America.
