NBN DISASTER: LABOR'S DUMB IDEA, THE LIBERALS DUMB DELIVERY

You might think your politicians are so clever they know what they're doing with your money.  But look at this NBN disaster and weep. My editorial from The Bolt Report.

3m

 

What a deflection of historical fact. Labour did not do anythin other than be confronted by Mr, Nope Tony Abbott who demanded the NBN to be of MXT format. Basically he called it little more than a home entertainment device secondary to Australia's need for a first class communication system. Yes Abbott took us to the giddy heights of being behind some 50 other nations when it came to communication. Sending commercial documents has been proved faster by car even when a business pays $24,000 to access the fastest available speed. So much for the putting us in the box seat commercially Mr. Abbott.
What we have hear is a further failure to communicate and Andrew Bolt doing his best to blame Abbott's folly on Labor.

ERIC ABETZ ON THE AWU RAIDS: FORGET THE CONSPIRACY THEORY

Senator Eric Abetz, who pushed for the laws that led to today's raids on the AWU, denies Labor claims that this is a government witchhunt. From The Bolt Report.

 Save the Banks but raid the unions. Ignore corporate crime which we see occurring ever more frquently costing us billions and hurting average Australians so badly that some suicide. Now that's Corporate Euthanasia of which Andrew Bolt agrees. Go hard after those unionists that have had their hands in the petty cash jar. Insurance Companies, Financial Advisers, Banks, Mining Companies and Polluters all supported by the likes of Bolt and News Corp in covering up their criminal activities for the sake of profit.

NO, YOU DON'T NEED TO DIE IN PAIN. AND DON'T NEED EUTHANASIA

 

Former AMA Victoria president Dr Stephen Parnis says we can 'improve the system' so no Victorian need fear a painful death - the fear behind so much support for euthanasia. From The Bolt Report.

8m

Well if the issue is as simple as Parnis makes out why hasn't it been done before. Is the fear of a painful death something new? Euthanasia is being practised today both volutarily and involuntarily. Bolt prefers to deny it's existense. It will continue the crime it seems is not the act but the shining of light on it and acknowledging what is happening already and legalizing it so that those that don't have the access to assisted death can get the help they otherise need. Bolt demands freedom of speech but limits all other freedoms particularly death. He supported Trump's sweet whispers to the widow of the soldier that died in the Niger "he knew what he's signed up for" basically saying he volunteered to die. Had he asked to die without a uniform on it's something else. Bolt calls the Barcelona terrorists brave young men, prepared to have an assisted guaranteed death for the their beliefs and Christians cowards but doesn't allow the same for those wishing to end their pain and suffering. There is an enormous amount of hypocrisy when it comes to death.

A JIHADIST WOULD BE SCARED OF ONE OF THEM

Contrast. UK foreign office minister Rory Stewart on British fighters of the Islamic State: "The only way of dealing with them will be, in almost every case, to kill them.” Defence Minister, Marise Payne: “Australians who have joined Daesh are subjected to the same risks as any other member of [IS] and should expect to perish on the battlefield."

Andrew Bolt's a delight isn't he what would he do if if a jihadist wished to be Euthanized? He certainly believes they should be involuntarily killed. He also believes they tend to be braver than most Christians and seems to admire them for that. In fact he's been known to publicly state that only last month in reference to Barcelona. He is proud of his violent attempt at a one punch effort of GBH on two glitter thrower which risked a manslaughter charge. Now how are we to accept that Bolt's an exemplar Australian citizen?

LOCALS TURN AGAINST TURNBULL 10 TIMES MORE THAN ABBOTT

A new Reachtel poll shows Malcolm Turnbull and Tony Abbott with similar support in their seats, after preferences: Turnbull 57% in Wentworth and Abbott 60% in Warringah. But there is huge difference in the swing against them since the election: Turnbull is down 10.8% but Abbott 1.1%. The media monsters Abbott, but voters are rejecting Turnbull.

3h110
No mention by Bolt of the fact that Reachtel survey  also showed a majority support for a 50% reduction of carbon emissions by 2030. If that were the case the electorate can't be such staunch Abbott supporters as Bolt is trying to make out.
ReachTel poll finds majority in three Liberal-held seats support carbon pricing, and more ambitious renewable policy. 
What policies of Tony Abbott then attract the devotion Bolt suggests exists? Climate, Marriage Equality, a History of superb economic management, Asylum Seekers etc etc ?? Reachtel Below is the link to Reachtel survey read it and weep Bolt don't just read it and bullshit
 Turnbull, Frydenberg and Abbott's electorates back 50% renewables target

BEFORE WE ALLOW EUTHANASIA, LOOK WHO THE DUTCH HAVE KILLED

 Have Victoria's politicians, half way to legalising euthanasia, looked at what's happened in Holland? Here are some very troubling cases - plus interviews with the brother of an alcoholic who had himself killed, and  a woman with tinnitus who also had herself killed just three weeks later. My editorial from The Bolt Report.

23/10/201724
 American states and 5 countries including Switerland which has had Euthanasia Laws for two decade would stronlgly disagree with Andrew Bolt as would the Dutch government who seems to have no right of reply . Cofirmation cases aren't statistics they are simply biased cases that prove little more than some people don't agree which is the case in any Democracy. Bolt's examples failsEuthanasia to prove that the State is killing citizens. Bolt fails to prove voluntary assisted dying is in anyway connected to involuntary Euthanasia  or even that there is any case that the above mention states and countries have in any way normalized the act of assisted death as an every day occurence. Normalizing death it could be a benefit obviously in the elimination of severe pain and suffering. Single cases Bolt turns don't establish any "trend" but remain isolated cases hardly impirical evidence for any "slippery slope " argument.

"The quality of life can fall to dismal levels. Not everyone agrees about just how bad life must be before it ceases to be worth living. However, the fact of that disagreement provides no more reason for prohibiting euthanasia than it does for requiring it. To force people to die when they think that their lives are still worth living would be an undue interference with people’s freedom. It is no less a violation of human freedom to force a continuation of life when people believe that their continued life is worse than death.

Opponents of a legal right to die are fond of saying that freedom has its limits. However, just because freedom has its limits does not mean that a right to die falls beyond those limits. When a person deems that life is no longer worth living, then taking action to prevent that person from gaining assistance to die imposes a very serious harm. Although society may restrict a person’s freedom to prevent the infliction of harm on others, it is very difficult to justify restricting a person’s freedom when that restriction will result in an immense personal harm."

LABOR TO CLOSE 75% OF COAL-FIRED POWER, ADD $200 TO BILLS

And it would make zero difference to the climate: "Labor’s policy of a 50 percent ­renewable energy target by 2030 would require the closure of 75 percent of existing coal-fired power in Australia and add almost $200 a year to the average household ­energy bill, according to analysis of modelling commissioned by the Climate Change Authority."

The banner to suck you into a subscription. Is little more than fearmongering exercise. What's strange is the RechTelsurvey showed this week Liberals in the wealthiest seats such as Abbott's aren't paying any notice to Bolt's or News Corp's fearmongering.

IT'S WHO YOU KNOW

Pardon?: "Police has refused to release documents detailing an investigation into a collision involving Premier Daniel Andrews’ wife, claiming a freedom of information request was not in the public interest... Police officers arriving at the scene did not follow standard procedure and failed to breathalyse the then Opposition Leader’s wife."

Bolt claims we are all equal and should and are treated equally as citizens. However, he doesn't believe that to be the case of Daniel Andrews wife. It seems that Bolt along with the Herald Sun and News Corp somehow believe there is s conspiracy by the police to hide the facts of the case where no charges were laid. Well, it appears the police are acting as they would any case the only people who aren't is  Andrew Bolt and the Herald Sun in an accident that occurred when Mrs. Andrews wasn't the Premier's wife. Bolt is simply acting for the conservative dirt file typical of the News Corp Actions Australia wide and very active in Qld with the Courier Mail being overly active.

TURNBULL FLOUNDERS, MORRISON DUMPED BY HADLEY, ABBOTT URGES MORE FIGHT

Plenty of trouble for Malcolm Turnbull today. Ray Hadley dumps Treasurer Scott Morrison after four years.  Newspoll confirms a landslide is on. Big swings against Liberals in NSW by-elections. An internal review warns Turnbull not to offend his base. And Tony Abbott says the Turnbull Government must give supporters something to fight for.

Bolt calls forth the usual suspects to call forth the spirit of Tony. 2GB's Hadley. Newspoll, etc  and his Troll Peter BH to do the work.

However has he actually shown that Tony Abbott who was so on the nose has  raised himself to the dizzy heights of "the man" the base of the Liberal Party can't do without and not the minority of ultra conservatives who have spent their time simply trying to wag the dog? Is he  Caesar called back by the faithful ready to be raised on the party's shoulders or is he just what he was when they dumped him a leader who was always in opposition even with his own Party supported  by Rupert Murdoch

 and the IPA? "the former prime minister was a poor negotiator who passed very little through the Upper House during his tenure. And they also took a shot at Mr Abbott for raising taxes on workers whereas the Turnbull government has lowered them."

ON MY SHOWS: WHY IS CAT STEVENS HERE? THE DUMPING OF MORRISON

On The Bolt Report on Sky at 7pm: The bombing of Coptic churches and the genocide against Christians. Plus a Liberal frontbencher asks: why is Yusuf Islam, aka Cat Stevens, free to tour here after saying writer Salman Rushdie deserved death for criticising Islam. Plus Peta Credlin on the Treasurer being sacked - by Rad Hadley.

  The question isn't why is Cat Stevens here but why is Andrew Bolt here such an un - Australian voice such an  un-Asian -Pacific voice such an isolated aloof White Western European voice  given a platform to do nothing more to whinge and complain about Australia? Imagine the conversation with Andrew at an average Australian dinner party what chance of success probably passable because he'd be hiding what he really thought obviously the standout "fake" guest.

 

 

TRUMP'S MISSILES WARN ALL AMERICA'S ENEMIES

Donald Trump had a much bigger target than Syria in mind when he ordered last week’s missile attack on a Syrian air base. The blasts would have been heard very clearly in Moscow, Beijing and Pyongyang - and by anyone else who thought Barack Obama had weakened America for good.

  A Posturing is posturing 59 missiles fired at an air base and Russian and Syrian planes were firing on the same targets the next day. Either the US a incredibly bad shots or this was little more than a con man's primitive bravado put on for domestic show to come back from a collapse in the polls rather  than any strategic reasons in Syria. What it has shown there is a man the equivalent of Kim Jong Un with a red button in hand. 

 

 

 

 

JOHN CLARKE DIES

John Clarke was a terrific satirist, even if I wished he were not so far to the Left. So it's a sad loss that he has now died. He was 68.

  Andrew Bolt's comment on John Clarke shows just how alone in the corner Andrew Bolt is everyone is too his left except Milo who he no longer supports anymore either.

 

 

DID FOUR CORNERS HELP THESE YOUTHS ESCAPE AND CAUSE MAYHEM?

Four Corners' hopelessly biased report on juvenile detention in the Northern Territory helped make a hero of a youth a long history of violent assaults. It also attacked the use of high-security detention. Now two youths, since kept in low security instead, have escaped, causing a mini crime wave and leaving one fighting for his life.  

  Bolt is trying to sell us the idea that the guards at Don Dale were the true victims in the situation. Despite the facts that revealed the guards themselves were  Don Dales biggest critics telling the Commission just how unqualified they were for their job. Some enjoyed the company of the captured audience of kids shown with remarks like "suck my cock". Bolt attacks the very people he says he's trying to protect why because the cooperated with the inquiry.

 

 

 

MORE GREEN THUGGERY AT WESTPAC BIRTHDAY PARTY

At some stage corporate Australia will have to fight back against the kind of green totalitarians who this time invaded a Westpac birthday party and menaced guests such as Glenda Korporaal. It's either that or let greenshirt thugs make us poorer by confronting reason with violence.

  Thuggery no but yes it was a stunt but it  a minor one in comparison with the 3 biggest banks announcing that they going to conduct a review to their exposure to the coal industry in the wake of the EU's announcement that no more coal plants will be built after 2020 to produce electricity. How big were those stunts in comparison Andrew Bolt?

 

 

MEDIA TREATS BEN MCCORMACK'S TV COLLEAGUES KINDER THAN CATHOLIC PRIESTS

CHANNEL 9’s Ben McCormack has been charged with child porn offences, but the media should now join him in the dock. How come McCormack’s colleagues didn’t know? You see, I remember Nine’s flagship 60 Minutes making Cardinal George Pell seem a liar when he similarly said he’d had no idea a colleague had been molesting children.

A seeming laser informed attack on Australia's media starts  with a  denial that Andrew Bolt knows  actually knows anything. However what starts as an informative promise segues into a fire and brimstone tent preachers attack on the media industry. Apparently the media industry should have if consistent eaten it's own Channel 9 and Ben McCormack. After all look what they did to George Pell.

None of this makes much sense when one is witnessing what's going on at Newscorp and it's Culture at the moment. Roger Ailes was it's George Pell if similes are to make any sense and Rupert the pope. Ailes was guilty and the Media feasted on it as they should have. Now they are continuing the revelation of what the culture of Newscorp is really like. Andrew Bolt's mentor Bill O'Rielly is being revealed for what he is a sexual predator that Newscorp kept secret all these years with everyone aware of what's going on.

Andrew Bolt Australia's wanna be Bill has kept that insider scandal very close to his chest because it's a real indictment on his organization given the numbers involved and the culture within. One sandwich doesn't make a picnic when it comes to Ch 9 but Newscorp is whole lunch given the numbers and people involved in the predatory behavior and it's cover up. Bolt has been totally tight lipped about it. $13 million payoffs for O'Rielly alone are just the beginning. Here we have Bolt playing holier than thou throwing rocks at others pretending he knows nothing about sex in the media when it's in his own house and it's burning. If any comparisons of organization, sexual abuse and closed mindedness are to be made and their revelations it's Newscorp and the Catholic Church. Both are fast losing their financial donors.  Bill O’Reilly Is A Sexual Predator And Fox News Is A Hostile Work Environment. Advertisers Are Fleeing Because That’s A Liability.  

 

WHY NO MEDIA HYPE OF TURNBULL'S "WOMAN PROBLEM"?

Remember all that exaggerated media hype about Tony Abbott's "woman problem" and "gender gap"?  Labor even built a whole (losing) campaign based on the claim that women hated Abbott. Yet there's no mention at all of women also being less likely to vote for Malcolm Turnbull, according to Newspoll.

Blowing up Tony Abbott as the man Australian women want doesn't have the same feeling in reality as knocking Malcolm Down does it.

 

CRIMINAL NOT DEPORTED. RAPES AGAIN

The compassion of the let-them-stay commissars usually comes at the cost of other Australians: "A sadistic criminal with a history of violent offending spanning almost three decades was free to rape a Melbourne woman after a tribunal overturned orders to deport him."

Firstly check out Bolt English he's a role model for why spelling and grammar don't matter today. "
The compassion of the let-then-come politicians and let-them-stay commissars usually comes at the cost of other Australians.

Bolt has moved a step closer to Fascism given he wants all criminals of dual citizenship deported. What is he going to do with the myriad of criminal Aussies that committ vastly more crimes than do immigrants demand they lose their citizenship and be sent to Manus? Individual cases do not make social facts. If that were the case the Dutch wouldn't have been allowed into the country because a number were caught trafficking drugs from the once most notorious drug manufacturing center of Europe. Bolt's family were known to have come from Aalsmeer Holland's most notorious center for Nazi support yet they allowed the Bolt's in why? Bolt has continued what seems a family tradition of bigoted accusation against whole populations of people by the actions of an individual.  He takes and individual crime and correlates it with policies made back in 70's and 80's taking out  any social or historical context. When actually challenged Bolt  escape I never said "all" Lebanese are bad but can we really pick the wheat from the chaff and take the risk our immigrant policies make? We are a multi cultural nation we are not a mono cultural one the risks of crime are not removed as Bolt would have us believe if we were mono cultural. Bolt rails against Identity Politics but plays that card daily.

ISLAMIC STATE MURDERS 40 COPTS IN EGYPT

The slow genocide of Christians in Muslim lands continues: "Suicide bombers attacked two Coptic churches in Egypt on Palm Sunday, killing at least 40 worshippers and police officers." Egypt is where Waleed Aly confirmed his Muslim identity. Will he finally now demand reform of his faith? UPDATE: Christian attacked in Sydney.

 What a surprise Bolt  1) believes Islamic State and reports their news and statements before anybody elses.

 2) He makes it more intimate and brings it closer to home by bringing Waleed Aly into his story before he can make a statement. If even he will however his effort to label all Egyptians  as apologists if the don't accept Islamic State

3) What makes Andrew Bolt dangerous a media inciter of hate and prejudice is he has the platform he has the amplifier and he doesn't share it in any conversation it's why he's a propagandist and one for terrorism which 1.6 billion  Muslims say that it's not Islam. Does Bolt share the the stage with any of them in any way that's not a production line of his bigotry.

4)  Why does Andrew Bolt not get mentioned by by Waleed I'll bet Bolt will tell you Waleed doesn't even have to.

 

CAT STEVENS TREATED AS MAN OF PEACE BUT HIRSI ALI DAMNED

Rowan Dean recalls what Cat Stevens said about Salman Rushie: “He must be killed. The Koran makes it clear. If someone defames the prophet, then he must die.”  Yet: "In a gushing interview two weeks ago about Cat’s 'humanitarian. good deeds, [Waleed] Aly never once mentioned [he'd] demanded a man be murdered for blasphemy." Yet Aly damns Hirsi Ali.

10 Ap"Rowan Dean recalls what Cat Stevens, who called himself Yusuf Islam after converting to Islam,  said about Salman Rushdie after Iran "Bolt the role model

One need only ask which is worse Andrew Bolt calling for the dropping of bombs on unnamed people women children and families in Iraq or Syria and the escalation of such bombings or Yusuf Islam calling for a fatwa on Salman Rushdie for a specific reason over 30 years ago? It seems Bolt is fine with the wholesale slaughter of people and even the specific fatwa on Osama but what Cat Stevens said years ago must haunt him even though he's no longer saying it. 

Ayaan Hirsi being hounded out of Australia is fake publicity. She is a known liar something that Bolt never mentions. Her parents have said she was the Dutch government says she was and those sponsoring her trip to Australia have said they never encountered the threats Bolt and others said they received. In fact they have remained silent on the affair altogether so who is supporting Bolt here? He has the platform he has the mike he has Newscorp and he fails to share that space. 

 

FORMER ABC CHAIRMAN: SELL IT

Former ABC chairman Maurice Newman is correct. There's no reason for us to pay for the ABC and SBS: "With the quality and variety of media so cheap and accessible these days, why do we need two public broadcasters costing almost $1.5 billion annually? Why do we need even one?"

  Why didn't Chairman Newman do something? He appointed Mark Scott twice Bolt never really mentions that but he hated Mark Scott as much as he hated the ABC but he hangs on every word of Chairman Newman. Given Bolt hangs on the words of Cat Stevens some 30 years old he must feel strange about keeping silent when Newman appointed Scott.

 

 

ASYLUM SEEKER BEHIND STOCKHOLM ATTACK

Remember when to even suggest such a possibility would have Prime Minister Kevin Rudd demand your resignation?: "The main suspect in the deadly Stockholm truck rampage is a rejected asylum-seeker and an Islamic State ... sympathizer, according to investigators."

  A rejected asylum seeker known to the Swedish police one of 2million to had entered Europe in the past 3 years and Bolt is creating the thunder.  Proof that immigration is dangerous. A Greek man feeling rejected and misunderstood mowed pedestrians in Melbourne and Bolt do  his anti immigrant rave but had he been a Greek Muslim  the story would have been entirely different.

FAIRFAX JOURNALISTS HAVE NO RIGHT TO DESTROY PAPERS THEY DON'T OWN

Fairfax journalists are entitled to object to their bosses' too-late request that they not be so far to the Left. But they must accept the consequences: that advertisers don't want to pay the money needed to employ them. And don't they feel sorry for the shareholders whose money they're losing and abusing?

Newscorp has lost $280 million and it's largely been put down to print media and the loss of advertising. It's been reported they too are into a round of cuts. Editorial and production staff are about to go and people like Bolt will be required to edit proof and upload their own work. Given the daily faults found in Bolt's we will no doubt see him as an example set for students of just what poor journalism and commentary actually looks like. Bolt claims journalists have no right to detroy papers they don't own then why are the Daily Telegraph, the Herald Sun and the Courier Mail being targeted for  heavy cuts if it wasn't for the loss of revenue. Revenue that Andrew Bolt isn't helping to increase?

Social Welfare is also applied by corporations to it's work force and Bolt is certainly a recipient not an income provider in the Newscorp mix.

Trump wants Farage as Ambassador. Media chokes

 

 Donald Trump wants the UK to make Nigel Farage its ambassador to Washington. If I were the UK Government, I'd sure be tempted to send a man guaranteed to get a sympathetic hearing. 

  Surround yourself by self interested 'yes men' and your time in office will be like Hanson's was 20 years ago short. Since when have countries other than your own dictated who is to be their representatives. What happened to the hard fought Sovereignty Bolt demands that defines who we are? What if Trump demanded we sack Hockey and had Wayne Swann replace him? If he said jump Bolt it seems would say "how high". After all  Swann saved us from the ravages of the GFC. 

 Is Bolt for real. "If I were the British Government, I'd love to have an ambassador who the US president would love to hear from. What better way to get the ear of the president? "  What a posturing lying prick Andrew Bolt is, a true suck, a 2 bob hooker  who not too long ago described Trump in worse terms than most other media declaring he'd never be President. Today he's  a sycophant a leech  a gerbil defending him  as if he'd always been his best Aussie media mate. Andrew Bolt truly represents the worst of the Australian character, the cringe. No he's worse than the worst because he's trying so hard to be Murdoch's media puppet ingratiating himself with Trump at all costs. When Murdoch disliked Trump Bolt did too but more so. When Murdoch and Trump agreed on US economic Policy Bolt was right there going yes yes yes. When Hannity became Trumps media buddy Bolt began mimicking  him down under. Soon you'll see Bolt grabbing pussy doing whatever it takes . Bolt in action. Watch the hypocrite at work here.

THE question now isn’t whether Donald Trump is just a moron or an outright menace who could blow up the world. It’s why a braggart, buffoon, liar, narcissist and sexist with almost no political principles came so close to becoming president of the world’s greatest power." Bolt

Rinehart right: Turnbull must learn from Trump

 

No minister of this Turnbull Government  has welcomed the election of Donald Trump. But  Gina Rinehart, the iron ore and cattle baroness, is surely right to say  Trump has plenty to teach the Government - and it must follow him to save us from turning into another Greece.  

23 Nov

Bolt would choke rather than say the unemployed and the under employed need to vote Labor. They did that with Trump because he made left wing promises. The Democrats simply turned their backs on Bernie Sanders leaving Trump the salesman to promise Labor economic policies rather than Conservative or Republican ones. It sure as hell scared the bejeezuz out of the Republicans who don't see Trump as one of them. Here is Bolt now saying  Turnbull has a lot to learn not Abbott , Bernardi ,Abetz etal  from Trump. Rinehart who wants to deregulate is saying it too. The problem however is that Trump's Protectionism will require more not less regulation in the market place. How can he  keep hi promise to those that voted for him by simply expanding Corporate welfare which is no gurantee of jobs unless regulated.  What is this extreme Conservative right winger Rhinehart saying really jump to the Left?  What is Bolt saying, unionize? Telling us learn from Trump is telling us just that because how else does Trump intend fulfilling the promises he made? Rhinehart isn't in the business of creating jobs she is in the business of reducing them and improving her technology.  She is in the business of cutting costs not increasing them.

Bolt looking like the  court jester the apologist for stupidity because what Trump needs to do is in fact the reverse of what Bolt believes that's stop spending. Whereas Trump intends to spend it. Trump has never been debt averse he loves it. Can you believe Bolt the Conservative is advocating  1)  A protectionist market. 2) A more regulated one to ensure job creation 3) Increased government spending to stimulate the economy via Corporate Welfare via infrastructure spending . 
 These economic policies that Bolt is applauding are not conservative but a jump to the traditional Labor Left. How will it be disguised? By a veneer of urgency Identity Politics intended to create and engender traditional conservative fears.   There is nothing and I mean nothing genuine about Andrew Bolt he too is just a tactical veneer. So yes Malcolm jump to the left economically and start spending .  Because that's the Trump way the Rhinehart way and now the Bolt way. However be assured if you do  Bolt will cut you down for being Trump. Either way it seems Trump is now right because Turnbull can't be seen to win.

Culleton shames One Nation

 

One Nation leader Pauline Hanson made a huge mistake by choosing Rod Culleton as her candidate in Western Australia - and she knows it. Not only does he face being thrown out of Parliament for his conviction for larcency, but his letter to a magistrate, trying to influence his decision in another case, is not only grossly improper but plain loopy.

23 Nov As if One Nation didn't embarrass itself enough. Pauline Hanson has a history opicking people who initially she believes she can control only to discover their self interest. She's been crossed more times than a zebra crossing and Andrew Bolt is saying poor poor Pauline. Bolt is typical of those men hand out ready to help with the other hand behind his back ready to cut her down. Hanson not only has short term fair weather friends and is a poor judge of character. It's because she runs short term knee jerk policies seen before in the history of the country none of which lasted. Anti Asians seen in the days of the gold fields, Anti Kanakas seen in the days of sugar wars, the white Australian policy. One Nation shames itself and us. Culleton is just a camp follower as is Andrew Bolt . Dogs feeding off scraps ready to turn at the drop of a hat.

Why blame us if you won't take lessons?

 

Fairfax columnist Ruby Hamad rages that racist Australia has robbed her of her heritage: "I stopped reading, writing, and speaking Arabic; this poetic gift of my ancestors is now largely lost to me and I grieve it every day." But there's a very strange thing  about her claim.

23 Nov" If there appears to be a link between criminality and the migration experience, it's worth examining to see what might be done to mitigate the risk." This is the last line of Bolt's Blog and it's a question.

 However Peter Dutton and Bolt don't ask questions they make public statements that are far from conversations. Nobody sees it and expresses it more clearly than Noel Pearson who has pointed out at it's worst as far as Indigenous Australia is concerned it's fully blown racist and even in it's silence  it's still racist but soft racism. There is never any  real commentary or long lasting conversation about the positive side of Indigenous Australia or Lebanese Australia and it's diversity.  There is just a lot of negative stereotyping.

 1 ) Lebanese Muslims should never have been let in According to Dutton and he's got 22 cases to prove it. Shit imagine if he'd checked out Italian crime NZ crime or even UK. Money was sent and donated th support the IRA Should Irish Catholics be banned?  2) Bolt is equally definitive when he says "Who let them in? " He fastidiously keeps a little black book of suspected transgressions not even proven. Often  referring to just  black Africans. He's not shy in his racism and he'll be more specific and say the South Sudanese. 3 ) He and Dutton even suggest these ethnic groups  are a problem Australia wide. 

One needs to ask why Dutton and Bolt have singled out Blacks, Muslims ,Lebanese and South Sudanese when the largest organized ethnic crime gangs  are in fact Italian, Chinese  and New Zealanders.  Logic dictates they really don't care about the crime. Given the fact that the numbers involved aren't represented Australia wide as is Italian and Chinese. So what is it that's driving them to stereotype whole communities rather than just the individuals involved. Is it simply their bigotry racism and their single minded assimilationist beliefs where they demand the right to be judge and define and reshape our multicultural the world purely in their terms. 

The problem is only 22 out of 33 people declared terrorists who are in jail wouldn't be there without the help of the Australian Lebanese Community. The South Sudanese have also helped to bring their kids to rule.  Do Bolt and Dutton believe it's down to only great Anglo Saxon Christian policing no. Their racism their ethnic focus their stirring up of animosity is simply formulaic identity politics. Attention grabbing politics a veneer to retain support for or garner support for the extreme  right wing and in particular the swinging  conservatives in the public. The positive side of Africans living here remains hidden just as Pearson says it does for Aborigines . Imagine living in  the Dutton household or the Bolt's for that matter if their attitudes represented how they lived their and what they taught their kids.  I wouldn't hesitate to say that what's going on is regarded as little more than a clever on going campaign tactic. Which makes them even more ugly and dangerous  for this country

Turnbull defends Dutton: Or, um, I, aah, maybe, or, or not

 

Want evidence that Malcolm Turnbull can't communicate? Can't speak frankly about immigration? Had not even prepared an answer  to yesterday's obvious question: did he back his Immigration Minister? Read this astonishing passage from the transcript - with all Turnbull's ums, aahs and stumbles replaced.

  The fact is Turnbull if a fool for backing Dutton . To tar 200,000 Lebanese Muslims with one brush is what Hitler did to the Jews. The logical result of exclusion was recruitment and push back and an underground movement of Germans not only Jews against. him. I'm not about to normalize Dutton nor normalize the politics of fear used to generate votes recruit votes for Liberals in the next Qld election to steal votes from One Nation who use the same tactics. Dutton was a Qld cop working under corrupt cops headed by Commissioner Lewis who if I recall was jailed. Using Dutton's logic he too should have been treated the same way.

However while fear and animosity can generate votes it also has potential of creating push back the possibility of instigating a self fulfilling prophecy recruiting  people angry enough to do what it is you want because it might just get you more votes. Put Dutton and Bolt together and you have the makings of a terrorist recruiting team who believe they are untouchable one a politician and the other Lugenpresse the German for the lying press. Conservatives will sacrifice swathes of Australians for a vote  rather than have anything to do with any notion of  a 'fair go' The essence of Australian pride. Dutton has chosen Lebanese he may as well have taken on Italians. But no the Qld election and One Nation dictate it's to be Lebanese  because they are Muslim and the majority don't live in Qld but NSW so votes won't be lost by any push back.

ABC crazed with anti-Trump hate

 

The ABC is crazed with hatred for Donald Trump. In an astonishing news roundup today for activist Fran Kelly's Radio National Breakfast show we're asked to believe a meeting of fewer than 200 white racists represents Trump. Then the sneering really begins. 

Dutton is defended for singling out 250,000 Lebanese Muslims declaring 3 generations should never have been allowed into the country. Catholic priests have been a scourge on our children but no such stereotypical claims are made  of the priesthood or that it's a cultural problem. Donald Trump didn't condemn the KKK . Trump's supporters are  extreme American Nazi's. Bolt hides that fact other media actually point out the extremes that make up his support. Trump has never denied or rejected them. Bolt  simply uses the exception defense" there's only 200 at the meeting".  He doesn't allow the same to be said of the piddling list  he collects and calls a sigificant number of crimes. 

I suggest Bolt show some backbone and stand up for his principles rather than simply playing  flipping . Flipping shows no substance no logic  just a jellyfish who has access to the technology to the ability to broadcast but has no principles just a side  to back no matter the contradictions involved.
