 Victoria Police investigating AFL diversity manager Ali Fahour punch

Victoria Police have confirmed they are investigating former AFL executive Ali Fahour over a onfield punch that earned him a life-ban from football.
Let's talk bias Pell, Colombaris, Bolt, Fahour Bolt says the police are biased because the have charged Pell. However he had no complaints that Colombaris was charged and Fahour investigated. In the case of Fahour he's no doubt delighted. However I believe Bolt should have been charged for affray after being glittered. He not only did what Fahour has done but he even encouraged others to do the same. That is to try and sucker punch a left-wing socialist or prankster and if possible kick them in the balls. An ex AFL footballer has been charged for threatening to kill isn't that what a sucker punch is? Bolt was encouraging GBH surely that's an offence? I believe police bias has been shown for not charging Andrew Bolt for trying to physically harm a prankster it too is on tape.

TOMIC TELLS TRUTH. TENNIS WORLD EXPLODES

Bernard Tomic can’t see the point of belting balls over yet another net. And this is a scandal?  “I felt a little bit bored out there,” he admitted after crashing out of Wimbledon.  Aren’t even philosophers stumped for answers to the meaning of life? So it’s hardly strange if Tomic can’t figure it out.

Bolt stole this concept about Tomic being the symptom of and not the problem of an alienating globalized Tennis and Sports Industry. It's not new. How strange though Bolt who is such a believer in the Freemarket Capitalist System should be found criticizing it. He feels it too when he asks "why am I doing this too"
The amusing thing while he and Tomic operate in different Industries Bolt is under the misguided belief that he's brighter than Tomic. Tomic in 15 years has developed motor neurone  skills and brain plasticity that Bolt could only dream of while  just a cog Tomic has climbed and earned his position and while bored and confused feels the alienation of the system he's in. Unfortunately he believes he cam escape it if he chases the carrot for another few years. Bolt on the other hand has learn't very little skills he's merely climbed the ladder in News Corp as it seems everything he's done inein his life not by merit bu by association by who he knows rather than what. He's developed a template of values and justification which he calls debate but if fact are little more than tricks to justify his beloved  illusion of a free market enterprise system of relationships based on genuine competition and merit.
The left has been explaining it ad nauseum that our personal economic relationships are unfair not equal and definitely alienating Tomic in the rarerified air of a sports pro in the sporting industry feels it but hasn't the insight to understand why. Bolt feels it but ignores it by absorbing himself in buying things and associating himself with those in power. Unlike Tomic he's more than just alienated as result  he's paranoid and really doesn't feel safe in Australia like Australians generally do. Tomic has a possible future with the getting of wisdom. Bolt hasn't when he says "I'm the only bread winner I have to work for them" "I have to take them to Bali for Xmas " there is no "we" in his relationships no enthusiasm his life sounds such a product and not of his own making and his job is blaming others for how he feels and not the fundamental economic system of relationships we live under. Bolt's been a News Corp marionette for over half his life any wonder he tries to find joy in things, lacks gratitude and is fearful of others.

 

SAVVA VS HER READERS

In another post I pointed out the gulf between the Leftist commentators telling Abbott to shut up and the Liberal members telling him to speak up. That gulf is made even clearer when you read the comments underneath Niki Savva's latest savaging of Tony Abbott. 

Bolt has a moderated blog post intended to suggest comments are all in his favor. Here he is showing just how comments can be moderated to even make ISIS sound like a noble cause. Bolt Tomic is far brighter than you.

Tony Abbott hasn't the balls to start his own party and only one God-given talent the revenge of Ahab in Moby Dick. He truly believes his wrath is a heaven sent gift. In terms of numbers of Christians and Conservatives Abbott is more ISIS than than their leader.

 

MEDIA TELLS ABBOTT TO SHUT UP. CONSERVATIVE SAYS SPEAK UP

The Left agrees with Malcolm Turnbull: Tony Abbott should shut up. Fairfax's Mark Kenny: "The price, in terms of the wider systemic havoc [of Abbott's return] would be exorbitant." Judith Ireland: "It would be better – for everyone – if he focused on creating a new [life] beyond [politics]." And there's Niki. But Liberal branches want more.  

 
Bolt's banner says it all a conservative says speak up. Bolt isn't convinced when the word crafter has to say it in the singular and not the plural. A conservative does say speak up Abbott and it's Andrew Bolt delivering the message for Rupert. This whole post is like that photo at Sukkor's that looked like a meeting in a tent the camera man shot the whole crowd of which the majority were present for Sukkor but Bolt tried to steal the crowd for Abbott. When Abbott addresses a crowd you do hear a few belated cheers but one thing is noticeable it the crowd presumably a very small group of conservatives is never videoed or photographed the faced un revealed and Bolt is going "wow did you see and hear that."
What's notable in Bolt's list is the absence of Miranda Devine, Paul Kelly, Amanda Vanstone etc etc all Liberals and all who actually sound like the majority of us. Never the less I guess he's right you will always find a Conservative who says speak up but is reluctant to be photographed. Bolt's one.
 

MENZIES WAS NO LIBERAL WET

The Liberals need reminding that Robert Menzies was no wet.  Menzies in 1974: "The main trouble in my state is that we have the State Executive of the Liberal party, which is dominated by what they now call ‘Liberals with a small l’ — ...  Liberals who believe in nothing but who still believe in anything if they think it worth a few votes."

Neither was Malcolm Fraser Andrew Bolt neither was Malcolm Fraser. Is this suggesting we are back in the world og reviving the Domino Theory and tat we need to find another war to participate in. A war the Bolt will throw his sons into for the sake of politics. Will Trump shirt front Putin at the G20 or just promise to like Abbott. I guess Abbott trying to join NATO was dry enough he made us look fools as a Nation and laughing stock to the rest of the world. What we see is Murdoch's struggle  nobody elses. It was Murdoch and Abbott at the Alfalfa Club trying to boost little Tony. It's Murdoch boosting him now why? Well he seems to have Donald and Theresa May and he needs Abbott why?
1) He wants the BBC dismantled, BBC Sky , Ch 10, and the ABC dismantled.
2) Trump News is Fox News in the US,  Theresa May and the Conservatives can deliver him BBC Sky and only Abbott can give him the wrcckage of the ABC and Ch 10
3) He then would be the most powerful voice in the Anglosphere and the cheapest to run. Unfortunately the Chinese threw him out and the EU are far to socialist. However his will be the greatest influence in the Western World.
 

THE LIBERALS ARE SICK IF ABBOTT IS FATAL

Caroline Overington on the Turnbull supporters blaming Tony Abbott for wrecking their chances of re-election: "Okay ... but if a lone and lonely parliamentarian, a wounded former prime minister on the backbench, can bring down the Coalition, then it’s not governing." Indeed.

 What's Bolt's banner saying? If Abbott's fatal then the Libs are dead and he's handballed the next election to Labor. If the Liberals are merely sick and Abbott's the poison then get rid of him. Either way, Bolt is saying Abbott's bad, isn't he?

What Bolt is implying  can just as easily be applied to Tony Abbott and his supporters in Tony Abbott he can only blame the Senate for his inability to govern and he does all the time.  Then he wasn't a leader and needed to be changed for one that could . 

Turnbull isn't complaining about Abbott stopping him leading he is complaining that he's not a team player and that is a big difference. Abbott wasn't a team player even when he was the leader either he was in constant opposition to his Party and so we saw the backbench revolt. He was always ready to make Captain's calls without notice or any communication we saw that too. How many times did he promise to change and didn't?

 

 

SHOULD WE TAKE ON CHINA OVER NORTH KOREA?

Acting Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce  “has sympathy” for the US threat to cut off trade with China if it doesn't do more to help stop North Korea's nuclear weapons program:  “North Korea [is] creating an incredible threat. Now, if people want to aid and abet that threat of the North Korean leadership, we can’t be supporting them.” 

 Bolt's cut and paste doesn't offer any answer even the question isn't his. The question however is stated more succinctly when asked, do we are in a fuedal relationship with America. After all is America's interests ours any more? Commercially Trump thinks not. Militarily also didn't we only offer to send 30 more advisers to Afghanistan. Trump paid Indonesia a visit and bypassed us. So as far as Trump is concerned he couldn't give a rats.

 

HANSON-YOUNG SOLVES ANCIENT MYSTERY

The Mocker is in brilliant form: "Are there cetaceans in Ceduna?... For years, debate about the whales’ existence was based only on sketchy information... Could the ruins of an old whaling station set up in 1843 on that island be proof that whales lurked in the surrounding ocean? No-one knew for sure. " But then came Sarah Hanson-Young. Read on.

 Bolt declares Hanson- Young should leave whale watching to science the very science he doesn't trust and declares is little more than "a faith". He obviously thinks that's funny however the joke is on him if that's the case. Hanson -Young is prepared to be educated by scientists and even see what they are talking about. Bolt's not. So I guess Hanson- Young can be seen laughing at Bolt and not with him.

LATHAM: I'M FLOODED WITH INVITATIONS FROM LIBERAL BRANCHES

The Liberal base must be unhappy when it is asking Mark Latham to come speak. And in saying that I mean not the slightest lack of respect for the man. Here is Latham's take on my show.

Modern day attention seekers scratching each others backs. If Abbott needed the attention and didn't have Murdoch support he too could put himself out too talk to Labor voters but even though they are in opposition he hasn't the balls. Latham has nothing to lose he needs the attention as does Bolt. He laughs at the Liberal Pragmatism but shit he applies it himself in order to get ratings. Imagine if Turnbull had done the same. Barnum & Bailey were showmen. Where would they be without the media and where would the media have been without them. The government however gets paid to get on with the job of formulating policies and passing bills meny of which the media don't bother about. 

Bolt needs noisy clowns otherwise he would be sitting by the phone waiting. Latham, Dean,hanson,Kroger Henderson etal his job for him and believe me it's not a debate nor is it negotiated. It's a weekly template of the same old same old with a few reversals, flips and redefinitions that's all folks. Bugs Bunny was more interesting.
