John Faulkner accepts Defence portfolio but is he right man for the job? posted by Kingfisher, 2009-06-04 23:13:08
Perhaps a chance for REAL INDEPENDENT LABOR POLICIES in our dealings with allies or will Faulky adopt the new SERVILE, COWARDLY, LACKEY position made infamous by shameless cowards, John Howard, Kevin Rudd and ‘knee walking’ Stephen Smith (pewk!) It’s not too difficult to be a good ally and avoid being a slave; Bob Hawke once remarked that ‘good friends and allies would at times have different views, priorities, opinions AND policies!' It’s only natural when two INDEPENDENT parties work together. Did you hear that, Howard, you unspeakable, GROVELLING piece of rodent excrement? (full story)

Not again Fitzy! A little favour here and a few UNDECLARED gifts there, does not a government minister of integrity make! Joel Fitzgibbon may have to call it a day; and you can take Smith, Swan, Rudd, and the entire contingent of SERVILE, Labor no-hopers, with you! (full story and 2 comments)

Swine Flu and draconian social bio-management policies posted by finch, 2009-05-29 23:29:16
Australia, in its role as a test site for the broader western world, is currently undergoing two major assaults on traditional freedoms – freedom of movement and association [now] threatened by swine flu bio-management policies; and freedom to access all available information via the internet. I need not remind readers whose interests are best served by these new laws/policies – not those of the democratic majority by any stretch of the Orwellian imagination! (full story and 1 comments)

Success beyond our wildest expectations! posted by cleaves, 2009-05-24 05:57:22
In December of ’04 a small group of poets, philosophers, linguists, historians, meditation/yoga experts, mathematicians and computer hackers, came together to work on a revolutionary new project. The radical nature of the project attracted sneers and condemnation from many at the time. Nevertheless, it was eventually approved, funded and given external assistance whenever the group required.

Obama: the Smiling Assassin posted by budgie, 2009-05-19 23:14:55
After receiving endorsements from Cheney, Powell, Rice, Kissinger and numerous other AMERICAN EXTREMISTS, TERRORISTS and WAR CRIMINALS it is hardly surprising Obama is what he IS; a lying, despicable fraud and expeditor of a status quo that was set in motion long before even Bill Clinton’s Balkan invasion and deregulation of the financial/banking sectors – the reader will note that today’s US militarism and financial catastrophes are the result of Clinton’s deregulation policies and his attack on a sovereign Balkan nation -- notwithstanding America has not yet seen a retaliatory response from the persecuted Serbs.

Who Rules America? posted by Paul Craig Roberts via reed, 2009-05-14 20:13:18
What do you suppose it is like to be elected president of the United States only to find that your power is restricted to the service of powerful interest groups?

A president who does a good job for the ruling interest groups is paid off with remunerative corporate directorships, outrageous speaking fees, and a lucrative book contract. If he is young when he assumes office, like Bill Clinton and Obama, it means a long life of luxurious leisure. (full story)

Be careful what you wish for, Kevin Rudd! posted by peptide, 2009-05-13 11:34:53
It wasn’t too long ago a disillusioned Australian nation elected a new leader with the hope the new leader would represent the electorate NOT the elites the previous PM served! However, it soon became apparent the new leader, Kevin 07, was just another servile lackey walking in the subservient footsteps of the previous leader, John Howard. The Australian population was sorely disappointed, to say the least. (full story and 1 comments)

A Stalled Counterrevolution posted by Robert Kuttner via reed, 2009-05-08 09:40:22
There is no shortage of books attempting to sort out the dynamics of the great financial collapse that began in the summer of 2007. Since we are still in an early phase of the crisis and don't yet know whether it will rival the Great Depression in its depth and duration, all verdicts remain provisional. But rather in the spirit of the 1952 presidential campaign's arguments over who lost China, the battle is already on to define who lost the economy and what to do next. (full story)

Senile Old Fool Murdoch Media Empire going belly up! posted by peptide, 2009-05-07 10:30:30
And you shouldn’t be surprised after years of treating the public with arrogance and contempt. Peddling flagrant, tissue-thin LIES is a very short term occupation these days, Murdoch! The public are leaving you in droves never to return again! How long did you think you could compete with millions of bloggers telling the truth while you continued to LIE and peddle transparent propaganda? (full story and 1 comments)

Kissinger Living History and the REAL face of America posted by Kingfisher, 2009-05-05 10:12:01
The picture below depicts what appears to be a benign old man in the twilight years of his life – how deceiving appearances can be! If you ever wondered what a genuine mass murdering, war criminal and sociopath looks like, take a good, long, hard look at the infamous face of Henry ‘kiss of death’ Kissinger, who achieved notoriety as the man responsible for the indiscriminate saturation/carpet-bombing of Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia, which resulted in approximately FOUR MILLION INNOCENT CIVILIAN DEATHS! That is an outstanding effort and ranks with the most heinous criminal mass murderers of the 20th century yet Kissinger like Cheney, Rice, Bush, Rumsfeld and the rest, walks free while kids are jailed for smoking marijuana! In the land of the great white (and now black) RAT, any INJUSTICE is possible. (full story and 4 comments)
