Harvey shut down 22 percent of the nation’s refining capacity, vitally disrupted the oil and gas transportation networks that deliver energy to much of the US, and caused damage to facilities that leaked more than a million pounds of dangerous air pollutants into communities around Texas. The road back to full operational capacity will take weeks, if not months. Puerto Rico could take 6 months to recover.
 Andrew Bolt promotes fossil fuels as the most reliable source of baseload energy. Yet Renewables are the ony current source in operation.
And now what? Harvey Proved How Fragile the Oil and Gas Industry Really Is – Mother Jones

WHAT DOES ASTRO LABE NOT GET ABOUT HEAD INJURIES?

Astro Labe, the anarchist and gay-marriage supporter who said he'd had "half a skinful" when he headbutted Tony Abbott, should have learned a lesson eight years ago when he failed to properly help a mate who'd fallen on his head. He'd been drinking then, too, said the coroner.

There is a very clear difference between Andrew Bolt and Astro Labe when it comes to head injuries. 1) Astro Labe according to the coroner's report neither witnessed his friend's fall nor the actual head injury.

2) Andrew Bolt, on the other hand, tried his best to deliver head injuries on the two glitter bugs in Carlton. His attempted GBH might well have ended up having the same consequences  3) To take, no, steal the moral high ground in the defense of Tony Abbott's attempted lie simply for political gain-sake shows just how low these conservative bullies in suits can stoop. Past history reveals a string of similar distorted tales by Tony Abbott and his attempted defense by mate Andrew Bolt without being fueled by alcohol. 4) There are significant psychopathic characteristics revealed here when persons like Abbott and Bolt can't admit to error and the need no matter what to win the day. To attempt to manipulate the facts to prove they are right with such urgency is known by Psychologists and Psychiatrists as a state of Cognitive Dissonance brought on by the cultural belief of "Born to Rule"

Besides being a pathological liar, Tony Abbott is a noted pugilist who in the past has thrown a few himself, particularly at women.
At university, he kicked in a glass panel door when defeated in an election.
Referred to a women Chairperson as “Chairthing”.
He was accused of assaulting a woman at University and later acquitted. He was defended by a QC and the girl defended herself.
Another woman accuses him of throwing punches at her. And hitting either side of a wall she was standing against. He says it never happened but others collaborated her story.
He threatens to punch the head in of Lindsay Foyle who disagreed with him on a women’s right to an abortion.
In 1978 a young teacher by the name of Peter Woof bought assault charges against Abbott. He punched him in the face. It never went anywhere. Abbott was represented by a legal team of six and the young man could not afford to defend himself.
And he did punch out Joe Hockey’s lights during a rugby match.
So one could be forgiven if your first thoughts on the head-butting incident were that Tony was just telling another lie in order to draw attention to himself. In fact, it’s a tribute to his reputation that you would do so.
He didn’t report the assault to police but he could tell radio shock jocks Andrew Bolt and Ray Hadley. He is acting exactly the way he did in the Republican campaign. Change the subject. Make it about anything else but the matter at hand.
It had the putrid smell of yet another Abbott lie all over it. One that wouldn’t pass the proverbial pub test. Or to put it another way, when Aristotle was asked what a man could gain by telling lies he thought for a while then answered; “Never to be credited when he speaks the truth.” J.Lord

 Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott yesterday provoked a media kerfuffle when he decided to report an alleged assault on him in Hobart not to police, as one might expect, but to Andrew Bolt and various other representatives of the gutter press. He had been head-butted, he claimed, by a Yes supporter, in a totally unprovoked attack and this is all we can expect from Yes supporters who are disgracefully violent.

Eric Abetz, with whom Abbott later lunched, declared that if marriage equality becomes a thing we can expect that married same-sex couples will go round head-butting whomever they want because marriage equality gives legitimacy to head-butting. Or something.
Eventually, the Tasmanian police, alerted by media reports, contacted Abbott about the assault. They subsequently arrested  Hobart DJ and anarchist Astro Labe, who stated quite bluntly that his attack had absolutely nothing at all to do with same-sex marriage. Astro just hates Abbott and half-tanked, took an apparently God-given golden opportunity to “nut the cunt.”
That the media unquestioningly ran with Abbott’s fantasy that he had been attacked by a marriage equality supporter because of his stand against same-sex marriage, is disturbing. As the story unfolded, it became clear Abbott had quickly confected the motives for the assault, and the media went right along with his confection. I am tempted to speculate that Abbott’s opportunistic lies explain his failure to report the assault to police, and hopefully will cause him some difficulties when the matter comes to court.

 I wonder if Andrew Bolt has the guts to celebrate with Waleed Aly or just divide the Tiger supporters.

OH, TIGERS. GLORIOUS TIGERS

'YES' CAMPAIGNERS HAVE YOUR NUMBER

Many readers have contacted me to complain that the "Yes" campaign has sent text messages to their phones - even to phones with unlisted numbers or on a "do not call" list. Rather invasive, this message, no?: "The marriage equality forms have arrived! Help make history and vote YES for a fairer Australia VOTE Yes.org.au " 

 
"Rather invasive, this message, no?: "The marriage equality forms have arrived! Help make history and vote YES for a fairer Australia VOTE Yes.org.au " Bolt
Not only are "yes" voters in favor of Equality and Social Justice for all Australians but they are far more technically savvy than the "no" voters so singularly self interested they think they are the only Australians.

THE RIGHT PEOPLE BEING HARASSED AT LAST

Yoshi Bashan on how NSW police are making life hell for bikies in wonderfully delightful and creative ways. Isn't is great to see the bad guys doing the nervous fretting instead?

  Just how typical is it for Bolt to club "bikies" into one stereotypical group the "bad guys". Men in suits tend to be worse than bikies that are happen to be a very mixed group of people. Bolt doesn't do for kids what bikies do for kids at Xmas. In fact what caharitable thing does Andrew Bolt do? Sorry Bolt the Hell's Angels aren't the model of what it means to be a "bikie" Just as men in suits aren't all Ganitanos or Financial advisors. However their is one single missing fact here generally unsaid. The men in suits cause more financial damage to the Australian Community. Cause more family break ups, suicides, mental breakdowns and personal harm to people than bikies do. So no the right people aren't being harassed or policed.

 

ABC INSIDERS DEVOTE SHOW TO SLAYING ABBOTT MONSTER

Tony Abbott is a backbencher. The press pack is convinced he has no support, no idea and no chance of again becoming Prime Minister. So the ABC's Insiders today devoted much of its hour to explaining why Abbott is wrong on global warming policies, wrong in reacting to being head-butted and just wrong. The panel and guests agree on everything.

As usual Andrew Bolt has got this wrong "The ABC is meant by law to be impartial and balanced. Four out of four people on Insiders today proved it has no intention of even pretending to be so. Five, if you include guest Tanya Plibersek. Seven if you include Mike Bowers and his guest."Bolt

The notion of impartiality neutered neutrality is not the role of the ABC it's role is to question reality as we know it and if one recalls Andrew Bolt was one of the Insiders for Years. Testing the realities around us is being "informative" it's what the Bolt Report id decidedly not.

As for slaying Abbott is yes not for not agreeing with him but exposing the lies told for the purpose of boosting his political agenda. Has Abbott a history of doing these sorts of things? It's well and good accusing a manfalsly of his intentions as long as he's name isn't Tony Abbott hey Bolt?

 

THERE'S ONLY ONE TONY LOCKETT

 PAYWALL

Nice piece by Robbo on Tony Lockett, living for now.

"“We’ve all got regrets, but it’s no good looking back with regrets because I don’t think it does you any good.
“You’ve got move forward in life. Yesterday’s history and tomorrow’s a mystery. Lockett
Andrew Bolt says he likes these words then one might well ask why it is he keeps trying to drag us back into the past instead of the new future? It's because he's a bullshit artist and proves it with every step he takes. He has this Walter Mitty self image a total disjuct between what he thinks and believes and reality .He still believes he was a minder to a belly dancer rather than a kept man probably too lazy to be on the dole.

GAY-MARRIAGE BULLYING LATEST: CHURCH ATTACKED, MEETING STORMED

Yet more bullying by gay-marriage bigots. An Coalition for Marriage meeting in Melbourne was last night stormed by gay-marriage protesters yelling "crucify the Christians" and waving a banner declaring: "Burn churches, not queers". Meanwhile, a Mormon church is vandalised with vote-yes grafitti.

 

 It was people "for" Marriage Equality who warned of the stupidity of this plebescitebut their warnings fell on deaf ears why because out of historical context "victimhood" matches the complexion of Gay bashers.  To date the only person with a bashe and injured face hace been Kevin Rudd's God son. His bloodied face no doubt caused by his repeated head butting of a poor "no " voters fist.
