Peter Hartcher’s vile smear

 

Link SMH

Why on earth has Bolt distorted  a media article only to bring it to our attention that he needs to protect Tony Abbot's good name? He does it so badly, he raises the suspicion that Abbott was being homophobic. The confusion developed because the Australian ambassador to France resigned and it caused a huge flurry in diplomatic circles . Had this not occurred Hartcher's attention would not have been drawn to it. Hartcher begins with the  fact:

"Australia's ambassador to France offered his resignation after an incident while greeting Tony Abbott as he arrived in Paris on Anzac Day."

 Bolt refers to this as his source and in it there is no reference whatsoever to any suggestion of homophobia.   The reference Bolt makes then is to  an interview on 2GB and an accompanied wink. This can't be regarded as a source for this blog as there is  neither a transcript nor an  interviewer mentioned. All we have is Bolt's word for what and how something might or might not have been said in what context we don't know.

What we do know Bolt has taken advantage of it to raise himself yet again as some dragon slayer on behalf of Abbott where I suspect there were only dragons of his own making. Hartcher refers to the confusion  as an issue over protocol in his SMH article. 

What do we get from Bolt? He embellishes it to the nth degree takes it to Timbuktu and back drawing in names from here there and everywhere making out it's been the issue of the month only to wind up in the end where Hartchers article does. That  the issue was  a matter of protocol. Hartcher doesn't even elaborate on the resignation. But Don Quixote Bolt demands an apology about some homophobic smear that certainly isn't in print and at best is rumoured to have been heard on 2GB . In doing so he's made mention that Abbott is not homophobic some three times. The man does protest to much.

 

 

Vote Labor and see the public service bill soar

Bolt doesn't want to see investment in Education which is an investment in the future. He doesn't want to see any improvement in transport in an expanding city. Because it will create jobs which create spending which which creates revenue. Bolt the curmudgeon can only moan a bigger public service a bigger public service. Yes we were the most livable city once until the one term Libs took over and anyone interested read Andrew Bolt. He soon fixed that.

Matthew Guy now there's an ideas man for you 50 ++ high rise towers signed off creating an area  in Melbourne which will be the most dense in the world. He's developers dream creating apartment density and space smaller than Hong Kong.  Buildings will be so close together that residents will have that  midnight  feeling all year round. Between  the previous LNP government and Bolt's PR Melbourne has been dragged down to their level in 12 months. Guys level anyway, he suffers ducks disease.

Remember Ventnor the planning permit overridden and passed for mates that was sprung for what it was a mates deal. It was quickly reversed to save some embarrassment and the government had to pay a secret 3mill + settlement to make it disappear. Well that was all  little Matty's doing.

Really screws SMSF who don't wish or are too old to risk speculating with their money and who over the years have seen plenty of hands out promising to manage it for them only to crash but still harvest their fees. Well up go the number of pension recipients. One way or another the aim is to get it off you.

 

 

 

Tim Storrier and the other Tim’s hat

Isn't Butthead  such a wag.

 If Hendo smiled he'd crack his face. If Bevis Blair saw it he'd be searching for a sexual euphemism the two like to snort about. As for Storrier like Bolt he's too contrived. Unlike Bolt he does have the technical talents. Bolt could afford this $300-$500 surely, as he proudly declares he will be a SMSF'er. Be a spontaneous Bolt.

Clive Palmer’s Borodino: a devastating win

Link Wag the troll and Restricted by the News Corp Paperboy Bolt for Murdoch $$ 

Bolt just does not know what the word 'not guilty' means. Most of the cases we hear about him simply end in one word. There is no judgement in law that says a little bit guilty.

 

How Bill Shorten (doesn’t) answer questions


How we have forgotten the LNP refusing to tell us any of their policies before the last election because they were so good Labour would steal them. Hockey wouldn't even allow Treasury to cost and audit their figures. It had to be done by one of the biggest accounting firms joined at the hip with the LNP. How after the election Hockey wouldn't leak any policies or figures until his day in the sun. The day he was to blow Labour and the memory of Wayne Swan the world's best Treasurer away. well we know what happened there. It became everyone's fault but theirs.

The Labour National conference hasn't been held and some unnamed Murdoch Journo is pressing Shorten for answers the LNP never provided and don't today. Have we heard what it is Hockey is about do this time round no! other than it will be dull.

 As dull as this post I'm sure.

Now for something interesting YOU WONT HEAR FROM BOLT

 Did you know your tax dollars are paying for BHP’s petrol?

Bill Shorten will and won’t on boats

Link Troll Paul does Bolt actually do any work?

Bolt's posted an old very old chestnut here to kick around. You know the one that didn't allow Gillian Triggs the right to criticize the LNP for it's treatment of children on Manus or Nauru because of something they'd done in the past. That deed that exhonerates Abbott for everything he now does or will do. Even Bill Shorten has said it was a job well done and moved on just as Triggs did and in fact we have. What we want to know is

"When will the man do his day job and stop blaming everyone else, and start working in the long-term interests of Australia?…"

ANZAC day is over we don't celebrate it day in and day out as some unnamed Journalist want's to do. Shorten has moved on from the days of polishing Abbott's medals.

The shooters aren’t the victims 

Link Breitbart Ultra Conservative Ezine

I think Mormons were a good choice to highlight just how thick Breitbart is  along with Hawkeye P Bolt's troll and Bolt himself for posting it.

 Given the  core of Mormon faith is missionary work that exposes them to insults up close and personal,tolerance, peace and just having lots of kids. Breitbart's use of them as an example just shows what   a wacko ezine they in fact are. ” Nobody got shot for making that “brave musical.”. Of course they didn't so why state the obvious. Mormons may not be coscientious objectors but they just don't volunteer for a fight either. Have you seen the size of the bouncers in Scientology or the size of guns carried by some Southern Christian sects. Could you guarantee a KKK musical would have the same happy outcome?

Nobody has suggested that Draw Mahammed was illegal however if you know it might strongly offend and give rise to extreme reaction then due consideration should have been given to it's level of provocation and public safety. There's no justification in the words "I told you so" Two men are now dead. What pray tell is the definition of an ambush? Reports are now surfacing that, as is always the case, at least one of the idiots was known to the FBI before the attack.

Inciting religious hatred may not be an illegal act in the US however it is in the UK and a case of vilification might be considered here. It's not unusual for artists to be arrested in Australia because of a public complaint. We always here of police demands for art to be removed from public spaces and exhibitions . These complaints aren't generally from the left they tend to come from the tight arsed right conservatives in the main.  “When it got to the murders, I think I was surprised by that”: An abortion provider’s story -YOU WONT HEAR IT FROM BOLT

 

We cannot keep paying pensions to the rich

 Link Restricted to Murdoch fans only: This is not a blog it remains an unsourced rant.

 

" I say so as someone who will clearly be affected." Bolt bragging as always but says he cant afford the ART.... just a tight arse.

1) union funds out performed the CBA which I believe gave the LNP $ 4mill of our money which they in fact stole from us their clients recently. What did Corman say "forget about the past". That's over generous of him it's our money. 

2) Their CEO is paid more than $8mill and 12 CBA executives shared $50 million not including expenses outlayed on their behalf. Makes whatever Nick Carter is alluding to with the TWU whole board including expenses look like small fry.




The very modern Anthony Trollope

Link The New Yorker Vogue for the brain circulation for those who believe their they are the elite of America. Average age 47, income $106,000

 Bolt made it to the cover in his dreams. Anthony Trollope had "wisdom is to see the good in the bad, the bad in the good,". Bolt is a Trollope because he can't he has no understanding of the dialectic in life

Newspoll: Labor 52 to Coalition 48

How is it that Newspoll seems always out of wack with the other pollsters? Is it because it's News Corp sponsored? 

Will Clive Palmer sue Andrew Bolt for defamation? Clive won his case against Chinese company CITIC. Andrew Bolt however spent a lot of energy and time suggesting the opposite. YOU WONT HEAR THAT FROM BOLT



Qantas flies to the Left

When the economy struggles and Australia is trying to tell the world "We are open for business" There's nothing like having a Bolt in the bleachers slagging off the national carrier for what he perceives as political bias. Will he do the same for News Corp now that the editors of the Australian have let him down and have moved to his left? Somehow Bolt expects QANTAS  reveal all it's political leanings even  border control. All Bolt really wants is to perv on the hostesses a little longer as they deliver their on board safety message coupled with a vote for Tony song.

How personal can our man Bolt get? Inside leg measurement of male flgt crew to see which way they hang?

Memo to the Australian: blast Kelly, not me

Link Restricted

Bolt suddenly realizes some truths. He has limited 'free speech' as we all do. There is nothing special about the him other than the platform with which he's been gifted.. He's a corporate hack a puppet on a string with the misguided belief he's free. This says more about him than News Corp. The sludge that comes out of the man comes from a true ignorant. Thanks go out to Paul Kelly for bringing it into the open and thanks to the editors of the Australian for not intervening for the puppet. Alone again naturally
