Old Dog Thoughts | News Corporation employs Right-Wing Broadcasters providing them with a platform ensuring the inequality of speech. Their Social Media Platforms not only advocate conservative, and extreme right-wing wing views. They monitor out most opposing opinions which they are entitled to do.

Andrew Bolt's Blog,5/2/16 Murdoch's the organ grinder Bolt's his monkey; Asylum seekers could stop being asylum seekers if only the went home; Holocaust and the Romany; Create refugees and blame them for their condition; Finland. Dividing us by race;
Leaky Malcolm
How more difficult are those papers to read. I can't read them.
Broken promise: Liberals restless over Turnbull’s failure to lead. UPDATE: Turnbull in reverse
Who is speaking out against Turnbull? 1 The Australian, 2 The Herald -Sun 3 The Daily Telegraph What a coincidence all Rupert Murdoch mastheads He's the organ grinder and Bolt , Crowe and Benson his monkeys
Memo to UN: Assange could arbitrarily leave that embassy any time he wants
How idiotic is this UN body to claim Julian Assange has been “arbitrarily detained” in an embassy that he freely entered and which he refuses to leave? How idiotic is Bolt to suggest asylum seekeers are always free to go home there is no compulsion to seek asylum from death or arrestFreeing Julian Assange: The last chapter
Trudeau marks Holocaust Day by not mentioning Jews
Isn't it strange that Bolt and Aron Goldstein commit the same act of omission they accuse Justin Trudeau of. No mention is made of the millions of Romany killed in the holocaust either. The Jews weren't the only ones to suffer but Bolt doesn't ever mention the others. Bolt goes further and talks of the decline of Jewish sponsored trips to Israel as if it is in some way biased maybe if these were Israeli sponsored trips there wouldn't be what he regards as a problem. I believe Bolt would Disapprove of Muslim sponsored trips to Australia of radical speakers. Maybe this goes a long way to explain why Jewish sponsorship has been rejected.
Israeli Rabbi Calls for Execution of Palestinians – International Middle East Media Center
We could help six times more refugees if we didn’t bring them here
Every ploy in the book to blame the victims we helped create and absolutely no responsibility for their welfare that's the elephant in the room Bolt avoids talking about. The Australia we don't believe we are.
1, Cost: We can't afford to be humanitarians up close and personal. Send them food parcels as compensation for the damage we caused. Let Jordon and Turkey deal with the problem screw global citizenry
2, Then there’s the security risk of potential jihadists, The added costs associated with them with policing immigrants. There is no proof that asylum seekers are any more activists, criminal or dangerous than Australians in general. In fact there's evidence to say they are less. Bolt's creating alarm where there is none.
3, $70,000 on 4 years of welfare. Immigrants aren't as Bolt likes to make out long term welfare recipients. It's a strange accusation coming from a man whose parents were no doubt assisted when they arrived here. Who as public servants weren't exactly the most productive members of our community and who provided us wit Andrew Bolt an unproductive Australian.
4,The maths says: help refugees but not here not here. Humanitarian Aid is not simply calculated on economic rationalist grounds. Nor is any consideration given to who created this problem in the first place. Israel and the Westerm coalition
Maybe the equivalent money spent on the illegal bombing and creation of the problem needs to be addressed in the first place. That money spent could well have been far more constructively applied and no refugee problem would have existed. $1 - 2 Billion criminal waste. Bolt simply lets that slide and would prefer to walk away and leave others to clean up our mess.Economic benefit of refugees continues to be ignored
Why is it Canada can and we can't?
Canada offers world example in integrating Syrian refugees | Informed Comment
Finnish folly: pushing the rapist - and reality - aside
2.5% of rapes in Finland are suspected asylum seekers not proven if half were guilty and that's not the case 1.25% Any correlation between increased crime particulary over the long term isn't made. Bolt's blog has no basis in fact and is simply anchored on unfounded discrimination in order to generate alarm. Bolt from an immigrant family is exactly what he maintains 12000 Syrians will become divisive like him. Wouldn't it be wise to find the guilty first and then consider what actions need be taken? Bolt is divisive he probably is a dual national shouldn't the first act of passport removal be Bolt's?
Do you really trust government not to waste another $35 billion?
So Bolt actually believes the current Turnbull LNP is the same as the Abbott LNP was. The ALP certainly agree with him.
Maybe that’s not compassion in Turnbull’s eyes, Jacqui, but pity
How dare Lambie praise Turnbull when Bolt refuses to. It simply reinforces the Bolt principle whenever the opportunity strikes play the man.
The high price of dividing us by race - and silencing dissent
Bolt is dissenting against a law that recognizes and reduces the existential threat posed by divisions of Australia into "them" and "us" and the attendant hierarchies . The racial vilification act tries to ensure that equality exists and is maintained between the diverse groups among us. Bolt maintains it's an imposition to our freedoms to be able to bully others according to race. That there should be no discrimination against Australian citizens on grounds of race, nationality, gender or religion should be a natural state of affairs for any democracy."
A country that places one ethnic or religious group above others cannot offer full equality. It will always have second-class citizens, even if they have the appearance of holding full civic rights which is currently the case if one looks at the incarceration rates of indigenous Australians. Bolt accepts the post colonial top-down social order. Equality however requires the very opposite of unconsciousness acceptance.It demands that we pay attention to our environment and to one another. It asks of us to recognize specific groups to ensure their rights are not violated on racial or religious grounds and not losing sight of our common humanity. The RAD does not erase the institutionalized racism caused by decades of occupation and separation, nor does it overturn “between the lines” discrimination against indigenous Australians which though not set down in law is deeply rooted. Formalizing equality in the RAD at the very least present an obstacle to the extreme Right’s seeming ability to operate unhindered in Australian government and society, no matter how ruinous to others their desired claim of freedom to be bigots may be.

Andrew Bolt's Blog,13/9/15; Samaritans are fools like the Pope according to Bolt; Israel and persecuted Christians; Sober as a judge; Welfare +/- Refugee vs White collor crime; Why Canning should dump Abbott Bolt reveals; UK Labor individuals voted:
Fairfax-Ipsos poll points to Coalition win in Canning but Tony Abbott may face snap challenge
CANNING
Will the Liberals give in to the offence-takers over this joke, too?
"I would like to start by acknowledging the traditional owner of this land: the Crown."
What it goes to show is conservatives have no idea of what constitutes a joke. Why is it Andrew Bolt only funny mate is Tim Blair and he's a failure at it. What is the joke Andrew Bolt What is it your laughing about. Why not stand up in front of the left media and stare down the barrage of questions like Donald Trump. Stop whinging and lead by example. Bolt will keep his comfortable distance behind the protective barrier of News Corp. When face by Robert Di natale he was stred down he certainly didn't make Di Natale blush did he. Bolt never leaves the comfort of his side. Yet he 's never shy giving instructions though about what he is unable to do himself. The problem is when conservatives try to tell a joke they always become the joke. Try cracking a joke Andrew Bolt don't excuse conservative rampant disrespect as Aussie humour.
Comedian Gives A Perfect Explanation Of Why Theres No Such Thing As Racism Against White People | New Video
4 'Reverse Racism' Myths That Need To Stop
Here is a conservative joke
Politics in Pictures
Bolt is funny hilarious at times after weeks of laughing at Donald Trump as a loser in US politics he's now calling for a Trump like attitudes in the LNP. Complaining about Dutton's pathetic apology Bolt says they needed to stare everyone down like Trump. What a weather cock he is."For heaven’s sake. Australia is ready for a Donald Tump who can at least stare down the idiots, the media hysterics and the professional offence-takers:" First Bolt you have to be a celebrity name anyone in the Liberal Party that is and can think on his feet. Abbott certainly can't Dutton is what Dutton is he needs 2days to rehearse what he has been instructed to say. Otherwise it's duck for cover again.
A son’s drug problem is not a mother’s publicity opportunity
Link Murdoch paywall
Not only does Bolt show profound ignorance on drugs and drug addiction but there's not an ounce of Samaritan in him. What opportunity does Bolt suggest Lambie gained and it seems Bolt believes it to be a private issue and not a social one? What praise did Bolt recently pour on the NSW Liberal for speaking out about his alcohol problem and his mental health issues. If the media hadn't made it public he might just still be there like a czar or Yeltsin. Side before principle is Bolt's mantra. One can only hope Bolt learns some hard lessons in life sitting in his glass house.
Addiction is a human and universal trait deciding who are functional or dysfunctional social and relative. Bolt's extreme political positions as far as I'm concerned are dysfunctional and addicted. However he has the backing of News Corp to voice them it's the only reason he still functions his privileged position. He wouldn't last two seconds on speakers corner and wouldn't have the courage or conviction to express himself and might even be cured. Ice: Is everything we know wrong?
Drugs in society: it's a health issue
No Israel in 25 years, says Iran
" “God willing, there will be no such thing as a Zionist regime in 25 years." Notice the word" Enshalla" are attatched to those words. Bolt also believes " Allah Akbar" or God is Great when said by a Muslim is an aggressive expression deemed to be suspicious. However "god bless" said by Christians or" Gruss Got" "Great God "said by Germans is regarded as merely greeting.
Jews live in Iran as do Arabs in Israel I have no doubt Persians do to. There was no mention of by the Ayatollah wiping out the Jews nor the nuclear obliteration of the state of Israel. The belligerent interpretation of what he said must be seen in light of the extreme right their interpretation and the context they advocate which has always been to bomb Iran back to the stone age and keep them there along with their expression that it's "god's will be done"New Report Debunks Conservative Media Myth That Iran Will Inspect Itself
Given Christians are up in arms in Israel at the moment for being treated as second class citizens in the state education system and they are threatening to close their holy sites to withdraw income from the state isn't it strange there's only silence from Bolt. Is he pro Israel his silence suggest it.“We demand equal treatment”: Israeli Christians protest state funding cuts
Should have breathtested the voters
What a brilliant idea it would soon show just how all of us in society are self medicated both legally and illegally . The expression "sober as a judge" didn't spring from the ether. It makes a lot of sense judging the standards of those who are doing the judging after all we certainly don't do it without bias or well. We didn't with priest,teachers,and scout masters did we. Nor with drugs when we looked at police.
Good old fashion trust seems to flow unevenly in our community. The prosecution of white collar crime generally has gone down and is ignored. Damien Mantach an example. Which doesn't mean there is less dysfunction just less prosecuted. We could suggest the drop in prosecution or attention to white collar crime is a move to increase middle class welfare. It certainly costs the community more than refugees do and does more harm. Who uses the billions of dollars of cocaine brought into to the country not the refugees nor the working class. Don't the police police, judges lawyers, politicians or political advisers just the Lebanese. What might they find doing a random test at News Corp?
Going la-la-la-la is not a substitute for clear thinking on refugees
Link News Corp paywall & Andrew Bolt
Refugees were never a burden to Australia and only to some individuals who don't like their taxes to help anyone undeserving let alone new comers. Bolt keeps talking of the major price we have paid for taking in refugees. My parents were refugees from the communist takeover. They spoke no English when they arrived. I'm sure they were on the welfare Bolt condemns. Yet they paid more tax than the average Australians once they had established themselves. I have paid more tax than Bolt's family in total and yes there was a time when I was on welfare. I had a scholarship while attending university. Fancy that not only was university free but I was paid. I bet Bolt was on welfare at sometime in his first 56 years as well. His condemnation that refugees were on it at sometime in their first 5 years.
Bolt's statistic of welfare payouts to refugees suggests the history of this country has always been held back. A history of Australians dragging a chain. Bolt's reference for his tale of misery suffered by the rich is none other than Andrew Bolt himself and his fudging of a statistical record. You see it's easy to say 85% of refugees were on benefits in their first 5 years. I was on benefits at some time in my first 20 years with a Commonwealth Scholarship. It says nothing about how long. I was on benefits for 4 years longer than most refugees were or are now.
Bolt seems to suggest all benefits are lost but no they are spent and a good proportion come back to us in tax. Let alone it helps employ all those working in the public service and other areas of assistance. How many jobs does Andrew Bolt want lost and then be on welfare? It's why the concept of "spending" for growth makes sense but not to Bolt. He really needs to be historically reeducated about our history which is one of people arriving and building Australia not just great business men.
Bolt rails against the cost of refugees. That cost is far less than the cost of white collar crime the prosecution of which is dropping yet the cost and size of it increasing. How is it you never hear Bolt complaining and calling this a form of middle class unproductive welfare with it's roots in white anglo- saxon behaviour. After all it costs is far greater than refugees do and does more harm.
There is an attitude among the elite and those that believe they are that pervades its that soft racism and bigotry that in 2015 has never left us and is still used to justify treating people badly.
"Dutton's joke using this tired old stereotype reminds me of how white
Superintendents ran our lives, dressed in their safari jackets and white
helmets, pipe in their mouths, hands in their pockets; and how they
would look down at my hard-working grandfather, mother or bother, as if
they were his slaves."
Turnbull camp tries to lose Canning to kill Abbott
So it's an orchestrated campaign by Turnbull and Bishop supporters. Last week it was Bishop alone. Yesterday the entire media including factions in News Corp. Psychosis by definition is living in a reality unsubstantiated by fact. Mental Health tends to leave individuals socially isolated. What would Canning make of a headline like this?
Given Abbott said he wasn't laughing at anything Dutton said yesterday and now Andrew Bolt telling us just what a leaky boat the Liberal Party is with the Treasurer in the cross-hairs why would anyone bother to vote for them? Even the polls are rigged and biased it seems. Yet even Bolt it seems says "it would seem a miracle for the Liberals simply to win." If that's not media whiteanting Abbott what is.
Jesus all the ABC, Fairfax and some parts of News Corp were doing was laughing at continued stupidity. I told you conservatives like Bolt can't laugh. Imagine how light hearted he isn't at home I shudder.Abbott jets to Canning as leadership rumblings intensifyMaybe it's why Joe Hockey is not in Canning. Goldman Sachs warns Australia faces one-in-three chance of recession in 2016

The Bolt the Twit blames social media and the lack of factions for the surge to the left bemoaning the fact that the Labor Party became more Liberal in order to become more Socialist. Does Bolt even know what he's talking about? Individuals and principles rule the Democratic Labor Party. They would have had Bibi arrested for war crimes. Bernie Sanders is also on the rise in the USA.

Andrew Bolt's Blog 4/3/15; Flags and Fear War; Flags and Fear Housing sting; Netanyahu and Abbott both struggling are turning to FEAR as a political tool; No Clear Plan Abbott; John Reagan Fraser New Treasurer; Inanities of Tim Blair
On 2GB tonight - don’t punish Indonesia. And Abbott on song
Bolt's IQ, logic , analysis are Dutch meaning never shared. Abbott's on song and tune explained logically "Oh no no no Pls Pls Pls Stop the Bullshit"
http://theaimn.com/open-your-eyes-read-the-polls-with-clarity/
An aside Bolt's irrational repetition is blame poverty on the poor, blame warming on science, blame Islamophobia on Islam, blame being fat on lack of self control, blame the indigenous on their culture but don't blame me because I'm on the high st of culture, money and power myself.
Bolt loves being a paid to keep the status quo trickle down is not tax or tythe as they are too obligatory. He'd never blame Gina for her size, He'd never blame or shame Murdoch's biggest investor for being a Muslim, possibly a Sunni and IS funder He'd never criticise Rupert for the money and marriages he's lost and wasted that could have trickled but didn't. He ignores 3000 women dead due to domestic violence but supports $1 billion spent on terrorism when only 2 have died because of it in the same period since 9/11. That's Bolt logic but Murdoch business nous.
Another retreat: government increases military pay
This party was handed power but had no clear plan on how to govern and it's shown and continues to show.
Back hander to Lambie she had nothing to do with the decision...Bullshit
" Abbott says he “respects Senator Lambie’s position” but has not made a deal with her over this. “I do acknowledge the genuineness of her concerns” but says Liberal MPs such as Andrew Nikolic also raised the problem."
The only way ahead will be to follow the National Security line and adopt the FEAR method of policy making. It will be their concentrated 2GB and Murdoch assisted media approach forward.
Rundle’s company
The work of Murdochian Tim Lakemba Blair the white spy who get's up close and personal with whatever or whoever he writes about . Did Bolt link this guy who hides under beds because he thinks he is funny? Any wonder Tom Switzer went to the ABC to get some sanity. Blair is like that little shit that sticks his head up over the fence to yell stupidities at the group who really don't think twice about him while Bolt is below the fence line sniggering. Do any of the media people Blair and Bolt laugh at spend as much time behind the bike shed as these two do?
Labor’s debt truck is about to smash us
One has to ask does Bolt actually write anything all his blogs are cut and paste of the ideas of others.
The ballooning cost of Medicare has remained 3% of GDP since the 60's. So basically what we are hearing is a lie. The 60's through to the 70's were the baby boom years and an increase in medical care. It was going to break our backs according to Malcolm Fraser. However Medicare remained 3% of GDP .What blow out? the one that Fraser predicted way back when?
Murdochian Paul Kelly takes the words of a Reagonite John Fraser newly appointed conservative Treasury Secretary supposedly non partisan who is now singing in the barbershop duo of Hockey/Fraser. Totally the reverse of advice provided by Peter Costello and a couple of Nobel Prize winners.
Does one need to ask how Fraser's appointment came about to make Hockey look like a whizz kid? Couple that with the new Inter- generational Report about to be released on Thursday and I think we will be confronted by another concerted fear campaign to which might encourage some good Australians to jump off the West Gate. Fear and more fear coming to us so Tony can say "I'm absolutely committed to save and keep us safe, absolutely committed, absolutely"
Shorten dares Labor to tell the truth
It's no dare Bolt the truth will clearly differentiate Labour from the LNP . A few weeks ago Bolt was coaching from the bleachers saying Abbott's PMO needed to be more like Labours. Like Blair's with an Alister Campbell like spin doctor in charge.
Well from the horses mouth "There is something in the Australian psyche that fine tunes us for success " However Tony Abbott is the exception "he came to power without a clear plan for government"
Netanyahu conquers Congress: warns Obama’s plan will give militant Islam nuclear weapons
Bolt's link John Hinderaker and Paul Mirrengoff are a right wing bloggers on Powerline a go to site for Bolt on US politics when he hasn't a clue.
Power Line's authors typically support the conservative agenda, especially the Iraq war and the War on Terrorism. The Power Line authors believe the media suffer from systemic liberal bias because too many reporters and editors are partisan liberals. They frequently question the integrity of organizations such as Associated Press, the BBC, Reuters, and the New York Times, and the Washington Post. Power Line authors have repeatedly advocated criminal prosecution of CIA leakers and media outlets that publish national security information. Note the similarity of Abbott's policies for Australia pure American imports. How lazy is George Brandis?
So anything to be read in this link needs to be taken with a grain of salt. Netanyahu was in
congress two weeks before the Israeli election to bolster his failing polling.
Anything written here need to be seen in that light.
As with Abbott Netanyahu uses fear as his political tool of choice. Moderate Jewish parties in Israel
are joining Arabic parties to try to defeat Likud. These parties see the future possibilty
of Israel having Arab states as allies rather than enemies as they all see radical Islam as their
common enemy. The need to resolve the Palestinian issue is a priority. Netanyahu sees no such
need and active is appropriating more Palestinian land as he speaks. For him the Palestinian issue
is his source of political power. He is calling for immigration of Jews from
Europe why? Young Israelis are emigrating and a new generation of American Jews are increasingly
anti- zionist. They believe the recent growth of anti- Semitism is due to Isreal's current leadership and
Likud driven politics which has only 16% of the vote.
Netanyahu's unconvincing speech to congress NYT
http://olddogthoughts.com/?p=5414
Nothing new PR and electioneering. The US is merely about to start talks with Iran and Bibi acting
as if things have already been settled he's doing a Bolt. All of this was set up behind the back of the
White House now there's Likud diplomacy for you. It's the sort of thing Facists are known for.
" One of the Jewish protest organisers was Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss of Neturei Karta International, who told DC Dispatches he was out protesting because he said he wanted the world to know that, while Netanyahu and others inside AIPAC use symbols like the Star of David, "they do not represent in any way, shape or form, Judaism".
A Labor man sneers at the flying of our flags in war
Hyperbole after Hyperbole whether rallying or condemning is Bolt's claim to fame is the use of Hyperbole. The flags Bolt give recognition to the importance this bunch of criminals so desperately want. We are a country assisting Iraq Abbott repeatedly tells us that. However symbolically we are a country at war with a bunch of crims that want recognition of statehood and we have given them just that.As for young minds sympathetic to IS well we continue to make IS bigger than they are and give them relevance. Guess in future we will see flags flying while is Dutton addressing us on the progress of the war on illegals invading us by boat
Hockey keeps home out of foreign hands
Certainly symbolic of Abbott's call that we are "Open for Business" How many Australians can afford or can line up and buy a $40 mill home? We obviously allowed Aussie real estate agents and lawyers to con the poor overseas shmuck to pay that money. Now the government is forcing a sale within 90 days. seems like a nice sting. Will the same real estate agent and lawyers be given the chance of another sale and the commissions that go with it? How many buyers are going to line up and pay the $40 mill + costs ? In effect someone among the 1% is about to get a gift on behalf of the Liberal government. Smells unfair to me but a flag waving opportunity for Hockey. It's a bit like selling the Sydney Harbour bridge.

Andrew Bolt's Blog pm,25/11/14, Ferguson Blacks deserve to be shot property is being damaged they don't know what it's like to have property, American import of language for Bolt's distortion "warmin alarmism"
Phil Hughes serious after hit by bouncer
We wish an hope Hughes has a rapid recovery.
The new racism: this time the villains are not white. UPDATE: Wilson cleared
The problem with Bolt he can't give any credence to the notion of American history. That America waged a civil war over slavery. That the South maintained racist laws until the 60's. Changing laws doesn't change culture that takes years. A 12 year old black kid was shot yesterday poor policing. How is it black police aren't involved in the shooting of whites or blacks as often?
Bolt believes simple change of laws brings immediate cultural change. Laws did not change the structure of disadvantage in America and that lingering tension still exists today. More white kids have committed random mass murders than any black kids in the US. However blacks are continually and shot in random encounters with police why? Life complex however Bolt is not. He has the intelligence of Sarah Palin and the Tea Party stalwarts like Inhofe who genuinely believe they walk with god in all matters even the fair distribution of wealth and opportunity. Even Rupert Murdoch doesn't believe that and sees the urgency of the matter and the need for something to be done. Your cry OMG property has been damaged a man of empathy.
Not all anger is racist Bolt and even mob violence is far more complex than your simple collectivist brain can handle. Yes your collectivist brain that treats black violence as a unified mob but only sees whites as individuals unless Muslims.
Whites are racist they form organizations the KKK, Nazi parties etc etc. What organization is the Fergusun mob , oh, yes parents and friends.Your, racist Bolt can't even consider it as poor policing. That Wilson wouldn't have shot a white guy under the same circumstances.
https://wordpress.com/post/71622728/new/ Why we Protest
Lambie could help drive down the price of warming alarmism
Disinformation straight from the US "warming alarmism" no mention of the "science of global warming for Bolt only the politics and the irrationality Bolt think brings to it. However one would hope that these politicians give scientific consensus and method a place when addressing the issue. Sure as hell Bolt doesn't.
Taxpayers will pay plenty for Daniel Andrews’ debts
Lose and burn vandalism is Abbott style politics and the Liberal government taken up his style. Signing binding contracts with no mandate before an election will have ensured Napthine's demise. Did he genuinely think for one moment it would buy him votes? Mathew Guy is going to hell in a hand basket. Passing permits faster than they can land on his desk. Over shadowing the Shrine no problem. Let's protect South Yarra fuck East Melbourne. This is the substance of politics let people know I was hear and if there are any complaints well blame the Andrews government. Any credits there mine like Abbott's FTA agreements nothing to do with Labour.

Andrew Bolt's Blog, 21/11/14, IS and Hipsters Bolt's highlighting his own faults; Lambie is just Bolt's deflection; Titles should Bolt be allowed to call himself a Journalist or the Herald Sun a Newspaper? Leunig
Is that all feminism is? Pushing women into work?
Have little idea of what this misogynist Bolt is about other than his support of Abbott and ironing boards. I thought Bolt was against all tribalism and that men have the right to wear dresses....Nonsense for nonsense
Islamic State more popular than Israel with hipster students
Islamic State is not Islamic. Israel is not a Jewish State and Australia is not a Christian State
The worlds most prominent Muslims have declared IS to be non Islamic, 16% Arab citizens of Israel would like identity in the State of Israel and the varying non Christians recognition as Australians.
Only racist commentators who try to blame Islam for the worlds ills disregard 1.4 billion peoples of the world and couple them with a group of revolutionary Sunnis who have adopted a violent ideology to bolster their cause. Bolt would not know what a hipster was and popularity is not a political movement. Half the world had Che Guevarra on the bedroom walls and had no clue who he was either. Bolt is merely indicating the weakness of mainstream media, his weakness his inabilities. However his ability to be a turn off the younger generation goes unquestioned as does his desire to capture their minds. What a non leader he is.
How can Labor keep blocking the rescue of the country’s finances - and our future?
Is that the 59billion deficit this government has allowed to accrue due to it's intransigence on fiscal issues. The government tactic to create a real deficit in order to get what it wants is damaging this country. As Bolt said drop the fight pass the things there is an agreement on and deal with the rest later. But that wont happen so in the meantime blaming Labour isn't working either 45:55 says it all.
Signs of change
Do we see Abbott changing on climate when his brothers in arms are now deserting him. Cameron and the British conservatives certainly don't see him in their camp and are publicly saying so. Harper is donating to the Green Fund and by doing so has hugely embarrassed Abbott. The Tea Party seem his only allies the heartland of global Contrarianism with Fox News, faux foundations like Heartland supported by the Koch brothers and more importantly it's handful of laughable scientists beavering away to produce a single document to refute the world consensus and work of the most respected scientists on the planet.If Abbott doesn't make a believable change on this issue he wont survive.
How much does Lambie owe Palmer?
Bolt's attention to the internal machinations of Lambie and Palmer are a deflection from the primary issues of this government. Refugees and Morisson's illegal dumping of Australia's responsibility for refugee children criminally assaulted and sexually abused on Manus. His non negotiated reduction of 150 refugees from Indonesia placing more hardship on our neighbor. Remember "more Jakarta and less Geneva" sounds like a Morrisson ad.
The ABC and the secret plan to commercialize & privatize SBS and sell it off to the likes of Murdoch. The hewen cry of stopping the ABC in the field of Digital Media because it's a News platform that reveals the bias of Murdochs print media & control of the east coast of this country far more than ABC radio and a one TV station can . Digital News will be the death of Murdoch unless he returns to being a news provider instead of just a right wing advocate. The best possible outcome would be the death of Andrew Bolt and his stablemates and a return to journalism.
Why is Tim Flannery forgiven, but an Abbott bureaucrat not?
One might well ask and yes they all misuse their titles they all will be eventually dropped. However isn't it up to the conferring institutions to make that choice. Macquarie can't tell Sydney or Canberra what to do nor the other way round so for the moment it's an issue in progress. Well pointed out.
Should Bolt be allowed to use the title of Journalist which he happily takes on board denigrating the entire profession in doing so. Shouldn't the title 'conservative commentator' be more appropriate? Should the Herald Sun be allowed to declare itself a Newspaper when it's clearly not. Bolt raises a valid point about misrepresentation of himself and his master here.
Persecuting Leunig for his sweet pictures of wicked Jews
" Leunig lays awake half his life thinking of horrible things to draw about Israel, but that would be absurd. Wouldn’t it?"...Bolt
Yes it would be absurd Andrew Bolt. The absurdity is you a person whose familial ties are connected to the most pro Nazi village in all of Holland Aalesmere. A democratic village whose inhabitants voted in the most anti Jewish council in the country in WW2.
In one cartoon Leunig uses quotes from Orwell, Martin Luther King and a Jew Sigmund Freud. There is no reference to Judaism or Israel in the picture yet Bolt projects his latent bigotry into the drawing. Frued no doubt would have a lot to say about men like Bolt and their unsatisfactory relationships with their mothers.
The second cartoon is more about the human condition the irony of the human condition the fear of existential death and the use of terror, violence and death to solve that problem. To repeat the cycle of terror and death when it didn't solve the problem in the first place. Again Jews aren't mentioned merely the State of Israel after all there is no Palestinian State. Both are mirror the stupidity of the human condition. It appears Bolt lay in bed at night and didn't a clue what the cartoons were about like a character in a Leunig cartoon. A sad case Bolt.
