POSTER STUNT SHOWS GAY MARRIAGE ACTIVISTS CAN'T BE TRUSTED

Last week, a same-sex marriage supporter claimed he’d found a single nasty “Stop the Fags” poster in an alley in Melbourne’s Chinatown. Activists and the media were ecstatic. Finally they could prove their opponents were just as nasty. In fact, what followed was yet more proof that same-sex marriage activists can 't be trusted. 

Column 28 Aug 14

Sydney police launch an investigation after the cast and audience of a play about a gay love story have their tyres slashed. Andrew Bolt's maybe right on media and vandalism but Stan Grant isn't responsible for this anti-Marriage Equality attack. I suppose Bolt will tell us they did it themselves.
"the only thing that could lose them the postal vote is their bullying — the lies, abuse, threats, violence, and misuse of power that’s marked their “yes” campaign."Bolt
The issue is about Marriage Equality Andrew Bolt. "Equality" is the word you either believe in or don't and it's clear you don't.  However, you also claim we are all " equal" under our Constitution no matter color creed race or sexual preference. That's  Bolt's big con he's for a side and not any principle he claims to believe in.

  Australia Day 'a date of mourning' and needs change, NT chief minister says

 

Australians think doctors, scientists and farmers contribute the most to society and believe almost equally that priests, politicians and journalists are a detriment to our wellbeing.But it’s farmers, factory workers and tradies who do the most for us and get the least recognition for their work. We value productive participation and Andrew Bolt is among the least productive member of society

NICK GREINER CONFIRMS THE LEFT RUNS THE LIBERALS AND CONSERVATIVES ARE NOT WELCOME

Being made Liberal president has gone to Nick Greiner's head. He's again lecturing elected MPs on policy  and making clear the party is ruled by the Left: "Greiner has been named the patron of the Coalition’s Yes campaign for the same-sex marriage survey and has criticised tactics from the No camp in trying to make it a debate about other issues."

It's lazy Monday Bolt's repeat day he quits work on Friday does next to nothing on Saturday and Sunday and he claims he puts in an 80 hour week. He's stealing News Corps $$$. The Left certainly doesn't run the Liberals in Australia because there is literally no Left in Australia. There shift Hawke made to take politics to the center got rid of any notion of the Left all together. Unless of course Bolt thinke the Liberals are being run by the Greens. The fact is the Conservatives would and should join with the crackpots of One Nation and steal Pauline Hansons policies out from under her as Tony Abbott once did in the Howard government when he had her jailed. However they don't have the balls to do it and so are dragging the liberal party to a slow death. The extreme alt-Right which calls itself the Conservatives aren't welcome that's for certain. Stealing the Liberal conservatives name alone doesn't help them given that Bill Shorten is leading the center right ALP party and not a true labour party.

Economics is what distinguishes the political divide and everyone is arguing on the same side of the fence grasping tho hold on to their rights to privilege ignoring those who have none. 

 

"DON'T CHEER FOR GAY SPORTS STARS" COMMENT FINE, SAYS ABC

I said the questioning by ABC presenter Joe 'O'Brien was bat-crazy. Now: "A complaint of bias has been made against the ABC after a news presenter appeared to suggest gay marriage opponents had no right to cheer gay athletes, such as Ian Thorpe. The Australian Christian Lobby last night said [it] had complained to the federal government."  

 Bolt can't abide by the fact that the ABC can do and does  provide a forum for debate unlike The Bolt Report that's set up as a forum to support a single minded opinion. It's why Bolt grabs the slightest strw to make the most stupidist of points. Once again the point being voted on is "equality" and Bolt smoke screen that we treat sports stars equally is a total deflection from Marriage Equality. You will always find Bolt selling tickets to a side show when ever he's against the main event.

Bolt's definition of Global Climate Science

Bolt such a Klutz. He's the man who doesn't believe in insurance of any kind. He won't get sick he won't have an accident and his house is fine. His family is uninsured and he prefers it that way because insurance is an unnecessary expense. Bolt doesn't believe in Climate Science he walks with Malcolm Roberts on that one the methodology is just faith and welfare for scientists. As a consequence Bolt doesn't believe in medicine as it too uses the methods applied by all scientists. Bolt is a true pioneer and as an agnostic he's a true doubter he just doesn't know what to believe in other than the wisdom of the elect. Who are they if you aren't a god botherer who are they if you are. According to Bolt  indications are they are the successful the monied traditionalists. The longer the generational success the greater the indication that evolution has chosen them to be the human cream of the crop. No matter that they aren't productive but it seems as far as Bolt is concerned inheritance ,property and wealth are the indicators of the direction we should follow not science which is akin to using a divining rod. That's Bolt's Wisdom

Bolt so pro Israel he never criticizes the State. Yet it's the State that has imprisoned some 96 Palestinian journalists. Not a sound from Bolt. Poets persons no matter who if pro BDS will find themselves held under restriction and totally policed. Not a word from Bolt about the totalitarian actions of the Israeli government. But here he is saying Melbourne's Jewish leaders  have lost the plot that Jews want free speech. Well the truth it seems they don't if they support Israel. Do you support Israel Andrew Bolt or not? It seems you only support your own interests and not any principle in fact and your interests are the Goebbellian right to divide by the use of hate speech.  It was a freedom allowed by civilized  Germans who were extremely well dressed who listened to Wagner who spoke quietly and wore suits. Their freedom and ideas didn't wither on some idealistic vine it created  a government , ghettos, and more than just detention. When Netanyahu comes where are you most likely to here the truths and facts on Israel News Corp, Sky, or the ABC. The fact that Israel supports ISIS and other rebel groups in Syria. The fact that building if Jewish settlements continues to expand in Occupied Territories of the West Bank and Gaza. That 1000s are held in detention and not charged etc etc That to support BDS in Israel is a crime. It's not who you barrack for Bolt it's where will you be more likely to hear the truth. Jews must speak out against Islamophobia: Standing with our Muslim brothers and sisters is critical

Yes Jews are more intelligent than Andrew Bolt because they value Education more than Bolt but Bolt needs to be reminded that 25% in Israel are fundamentalists who demand only religious education and their Rabbis are happy to have Palestinians exterminated.

African car jacking at Chadstone

 

An Australian hero Ned was created by the media he was a criminal. Australian evil is also created by the media the acts are simply criminal. Being African in Australia is not a crime.

Last week It was a the battle of civilizations again in Minto when a paranoid schizophrenic stabbed someone with a knife. ISIS had arrived in Australia again . It was Andrew Bolt's good fortune because it enabled him to ask "who let him in". Bolt didn't need any facts all he needed to know the 22 year old was a Muslim. Right or wrong whether it was or it wasn't an act of terror Bolt had his chance to malign a whole class of Australians. Minto will be put to rest probably a one time moment sufficient to publicize. Had Khan been a Christian it wouldn't have made Bolt's blog because it wouldn't have been of any use to him. ISIS Inspired or Mentally Unstable? Another ‘Terrorist’ Attack AnonHQ

Bolt has found another moment this time to slag off a whole continent of people from Africa simply on the basis of a probability. It gives him pleasure to tell the world that our police are gutless in a world Bolt on any other day of the week insists is not racist and has no color but not yesterday. Yesterday was Black African day and when the police made no mention of it and other media didn't make the fuss Bolt made of it a conspiracy was at hand. A clash of Cultures not a crime was at hand here had the suspects been white Bolt would never have mentioned it. You see white men can't jump only Muslims and blacks commit crime and terror in Bolt's town and that's his story and he's sticking to it. That's Bolt's reality and his daughter is in permanent danger. It reminds me of a time in Melbourne when the deputy Premier of Vic was Arthur Rylah his daughter was the measuring stick for reality too. I can't remember if he had one or not.

 

How dare they shut you up

 

 

 A media man Goebbels was like Bolt he always wore a suit to liked art and was polite

There was a time in the 1930s when the freedom of speech Bolt's talking about was allowed and how dare anyone anyone not be allowed to publish the fact that Jews were vermin and gypsies a plague set free on the earth. That's just an idea an idea allowed to fester until it became a call to action to kill 6 million Jews and 2 million Romany. "Our own unique liberal democratic culture here in Australia recognises that society is improved by individuals thinking for themselves, imparting their own views and then having them contested in open and very robust debate, so that good ideas gain traction and bad ideas wither away, enabling changing social norms to be reflected in the legislation of the day..." Those ideas didn't whither away did they 

The right to be able to allow these ideas is Bolt's because he was convicted and feels hard done by. According to Bolt they are merely thoughts that never entrench themselves. Ideas are calls to action and Andrew Bolt doesn't defend every persons right at all. In fact that right doesn't exist and hasn't existed in any society or any group we know of. Our very social structure is civilized because we vett ideas in some way or another and in some cases by governments and not by Section 18C alone. How is it plebiscites aren't held in the case of sending your boys to war  but one needs to be held if they choose to marry? We need to talk about this but Sheridan doesn't seem to feel the same urgency when it comes a fight. If someone disagreed out of conscience they were jailed and in a number of cases their supporters attacked on the streets for supporting them. Governments have done many things in the past silently to people who expressed themselves openly. Done things in secretly in fact and people like Bolt applaud. Jobs have been lost, people spied on, because they expressed ideas counter to the likes of Andrew Bolt who has demanded action be taken. Dr Gary Foley was prvented working in any government department why his ideas. Bolt's freedom has been restricted not just because he offended people but he lied as well. That Bolt says wasn't intentional. I guess all advertisers like VW say that as well. No! I don’t defend your right to say it – » The Australian Independent Media Network

 

The real peddlers of hate

 

Bolt uses the same arguments used when the Jews tried to have Goebbels's shut up it's his Democratic right to speak and not his fault people are being kicked to death.

When Shorten says " As Labor leader Bill Shorten said this week: “A ‘no’ campaign would be an emotional torment for gay teenagers, and if one child commits suicide over the plebiscite, then that is one too many.” Bolt calls this"moral blackmail to shut down a serious debate over a critical tradition meant to keep families together. Something one can believe civilized Nazis said when described as hate mongers they too cried foul like Bolt. However the difference the purpose of their demands however expressed were equality the purpose of Bolt's polite requests is quite the opposite it's the maintenance of inequality. That's a big difference and it was that which distinguished the Nazis from others. Bolt denies that Adam and Steve are equal and deserve the same rights as he does. The issue of stopping the boats was also and is still to day one of equality and a right to life not the possibility of drowning.

 

 

 

Shock: Niki Savva blames Abbott

How boring Bolt and Peter BH play ping pong in a world of stale but now taken for granted ideas. Tony Abbott was kicked from office having been asked to be more collegiate and consutatative he chose not to be and was removed as promised no surprise to anybody.
Turnbull has been quite the opposite allowing wide discussions to take place which is something that takes more time. Time is not the measure of the man as Bolt seems to tell us. Abbott was the fastest son of a gun in making decisions but the slowest in passing bills the business of government. He's still shooting off his mouth  which indicates he really doesn't give a shit about the opinions of others in fact he's undermining them. No Abbott I'm afraid is not a team player.

 

 

Pauline Hanson: her speech

We heard it 20 years ago except it was Asians then and they now have Aussie accents. It's Muslims now and if you run into a group they too will be found to have Aussie accents to. Why doesn't Bolt have one? he was born here.

 

Study - gay marriage makes marriage less popu...

 

 Here is a better statistic it's more to the point why marriage is becoming less important.

This statistic is as stupid as Bolt is to quote it since 1988 and 2005 the institution of marriage has been on the decrease. To assume a causal link is proven between the introduction of a Law that has no effect whatsoever on marriage as it exists now and the choices heterosexuals make is beyond absurd. Besides the legal and cultural recognition of de-facto relationships might be far more relevant as might be the increase in the divorce rate. The inability to afford a wedding may also go a long way to explain this given no change has occurred among extreme conservatives who tend to be the most traditional and can afford the increasing costs involved in a marriage. Bolt is a waste of space trying to introduce a statistic like this. I bet Bolt didn't cough up for his marriage.Give it up to the Lord – » The Australian Independent Media Network

You are funding a state media which promotes Islamism. UPDATE: Another Lyons’ claim denied

Proof of the pathetic standard of media we can expect if News Corp gained control of the ABC. Bolt deals in rumors, innuendo distortion and deflection to push ideology. In this case his side in order to do whatever it takes to discredit the ABC.

At his worst he never apologizes unless brought to bear by News Corp's legal advisers. When ever he does "I should have been more sceptical, given the byline.  Ebeid denies: " as you can expect. It's an apology in small print so the stench of his original complaint not only remains but  is repeated.

So why has Bolt chosen to offer minimum apology? He had vengence on his mind. Bolt wanted to get own back on another News Corp drone John Lyons. But Bolt who failed to verify anything he was talking about was left with egg on his face again because Lyons didn't write what Bolt was accusing him of.

" It seems it was more the headline (which Lyons didn’t write) than Lyon’s copy which really went too far."

This whole blog is in fact an apology however it doesn't read like one and the banner remains. It's News Corp operating like only News Corp does.

The benefits of Chavez socialism

Link Bolt 2010 Link Powerline the American Tea Party ezine 

The difference between Democratic Socialists and The Australian Liberal Party and it's supporters is their general acceptance that all Socialism and what it has or even had to offer is bad. Whereas Socialists prefer to verify the data and search for the truth. It's why you hear very little about Cuba or what occurred in Kerala India after the first Communist Party came to power. Bolt never talks about Uraguay but will tell you a terrorist became President. Socialists want to know Liberals just spin. Only 553 people own 50% of the total wealth of the USA.

It's why all the decisions Liberals make are behind closed doors and the for and against arguments are never presented in public. Paranoia seems to be governing ambiance and not the good of the Nation. It was so much healthier watching the ALP conference in action with all it's transparency. There's was no threatening doctors, nurses, teachers, and journalists there with jail.

They are not funny. The thing that escapes us all is the right wing commentators are never funny when the content of what they have to say is examined. However gather them in any photo shoot and they are hilarious.

Why Labor and its media mates are sliming a good judge

Link Bolt's answer is to be found in Quadrant heaven help us it's coupled with Gerard Henderson.

When A comes before B in time and space and are co-joined one might consider that there was a necessary connection between the two  then A caused B can reasonably be implied. Which when all is said and done  the good judge and the Liberal Party slimmed each other before any media or the Labour Party got hold of it. It might be argued that the ALP and the media caused it all to be revealed after the sliming had been well and truly done and the slime is little more than the track left behind by these two slugs. 

However more to the point is the judge and his advisers weren't astute enough to realize the dangers of what was occurring they claim innocence. However when judges are concerned ignorance is definitely no excuse. The Liberal party have made that perfectly clear when trying to slime Professor Triggs and Peter Slipper  Would Dyson Heydon have skewered his own conduct had a unionist done it?

If it's as simple as it's made out to be why isn't it to be held now?

 

 

 

Labour falls for socialism all over again

Link News Corp's Greg Sheridan

Bolt uses the word Socialism as a constraint and Austerity forced on individuals as a form of Liberation. Individuals have no economic or social rights which haven't been earned is the myth in a society whose earned wealth in fact is rooted in inheritance. That's the only form of history Bolt espouses to. All other histories are a danger to the fundamental principles of Capitalism ant the wealth of the status quo.

Link None Unsourced All Bolt

Paul Kelly says it's what it is  "the idea of a national vote seems the best outcome for the Abbott government." It's not a a moral or cultural choice but political ploy. There is little interest in the idea of a peoples choice that's been already polled countless times and 72% agree with. So if a plebiscite is to be held why hold it after the next election? Because it can be used a for political advantage this term. The Liberal Party believe that forcing it to a representational vote at the next election will not only make it look closer than it is but the false slogan we are for the children, free religious belief and tradition rather than we all have rights to be treated the same can be twisted and it will be. Love has nothing to do with this.

Yes they are the same but we simply don't like him because he's a Muslim can only be Bolt's reasoning. No Bolt says he went to jail over 11 years ago. That's Mullah's crime he doesn't wear a blue tie and has done time. Mullah in fact will show himself to be like Abbott and Bolt politically but that's what Bolt does not want because the the whole Q&A debacle will be seen for what it was a ploy for political advantage on the part of Abbott.

 

 

 

The Age chokes on its hatred of Abbott

Link SMH

Even the reporting of the fact of Dyson Heydon's  monumental blunder of accepting the post of main speaker at lawyers function that turned out to be a Liberal fund raiser questions the mans diligence and competence. All this is hailed by Bolt as indicative of the  hatred for Abbott. Is Bolt suggesting all these Liberals involved together with Heydon conspired to bring down Abbott? Even the left don't go that far. However Bolt would if it meant saving the boss.

 Tony Abbott should  have shut up and not defended Dyson Heydon. Abbott threw fuel on the fire by supporting him as he did Bishop. Are we going to have to wait 18 days for him to change his mind? Could you imagine the furor if Gillian Triggs was found to be guest speaker at a Labour fundraiser? What sort of incompetent Liberal organizers, advisers and commissioners has Tony Abbott PM appointed? Tim Wilson independent commissioner was appointed by Tony Abbott is only happy to speak at Liberal  fund raisers. The whole PMO is ditsy.

Flipping the argument is just a vacuous  debating tactic Bolt uses when he has no argument. Turning the accused into the aggrieved by ignoring the sequence of causal events. Heydon is accused because he put his hand up to speak. He negotiated with Liberal organizers and Abbott defended him. Heydon and Abbott are not the hard done by and The AGE is both reporting and commentating on a matter of fact.

"Conservative buyers of The Age should realise they are subsidising the most extreme and misleading propaganda."

What is misleading in the presentation of the facts as they occurred? Is Bolt suggesting that none of this happened and it's all confected? Heydon admitted it  did and the Liberal Party advertised it as they did with Tim Wilson. Bolt is not putting words in Heydon's mouth he's taking the out spin is spin. He's even misrepresenting what Peter Hartcher is saying.

Peter Hartcher has called it what it was an astonishing cock up. Bolt on the other hand is calling anything other than what it was and Abbott should have shut up. The whole thing is another fiasco.

" The astonishing misjudgment that led the royal commissioner into trade union corruption, Dyson Heydon, to agree to speak at a Liberal Party fundraiser was the most unexpected blow to a punchdrunk party."

In much the same way he over looks the stupidity of the mad monk and the acts of racial discrimination that constitute the norm in Australia. However Bolt seems to provide no specific reason as to why the Italian Embassy was the target at this time when there were no staff in attendance. We can be sure he will construct one to fit his narrative.

 

 

 

 To deny the fact that polar bears are in danger of extinction from unmitigated climate change, the Daily Caller turned to a Heartland Institute-affiliated biologist who dismissed scientific computer climate models as an "opinion."

"The single most important step for polar bear conservation is decisive action to address Arctic warming," the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) wrote this week in their draft recovery plan for polar bears, which are listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. The plan was issued after newly released data from the U.S. Geological Services (USGS) showed that greenhouse gas emissions are the species' "primary threat," due to the predicted Arctic sea ice loss that will diminish polar bears' habitat and food supplies.

But don't worry, polar bears are "doing just fine," according to the Daily Caller. 

To refute the federal agencies' warnings, the conservative news publication turned to scientists affiliated with the fossil fuel-backed Heartland Institute. Daily Caller first quoted Canadian biologist Mitchell Taylor, who dismissed the USGS' report because he said it is "based on climate models, not empirical data." The agency's climate models are "an expression of their opinion," said Taylor, adding that "it's simply their idea of what will happen if the carbon models are correct."

Taylor prefers "empirical data" to modeled forecasts of climate change. However, the empirical data also show that Arctic sea ice has been declining at record rates. The sea ice levels recently were at their lowest for the month of May since record-keeping began in the 1980s, and have been on a steady decline since then.

Is it healthy to have a law which muzzles debate on our Constitution?

Link Andrew Bolt's blog 

Yes fighting for himself and the eradication of Section 18C of the RDA we have Andrew Bolt in the round corner yet again going nowhere. For Bolt it's all freedom of speech without any civility or responsibility. You can talk dirty to your kids you can own the ABC and preach what you like in the name of freedom. Censorship what's that? Civilized discussion is out the door. I'm sure Bolt would declare rules need to exist so he can't simply mean that. After all he's had people sacked for exercising these freedoms and prevented other having a stage to express themselves.

" Australia did not become the civilised, culturally advanced society that it is by chance or by having our thoughts vetted by the judiciary. We got here through an evolution of ideas, values and beliefs and having them validated or otherwise by the best test there is: public debate." Yes that maybe so but 66% of print media wasn't owned by a single corporation that's purpose is to disseminate a single ideology masked by trivia advertising and misinformation. I pay for a product that promises news and don't get the promise. The business model of Newscorp no longer relies on reader payments

However we all agree if the playing field were level these freedoms should exist. However the playing field is not level and the power of distribution of speech not equal to all. Bolt's corporate voice is louder than mine simply because of money and technology that I don't have access to. That alone produces a differential in the ability to influence which assists the power of speech to flow only in one direction from the top down and that's paid for in hard cash. 

So yes it's is healthy to have a debate. Andrew Bolt isn't muzzled he just likes to cry victim and pretend to be. He's individual freedom is as equal as mine as far as I'm concerned. He can debate as sees fit if he needs to vilify threaten and insult in order to debate the constitution? Get a soap box but get out of Newscorp.

How is it these bankers knew Greece was a basket case in 2004 and yet became co-conspirators in irresponsible lending practices. They knew Greece would come to this yet as long as the interest, yes the profit was paid they kept on lending. When they created the GFC they the banks were bailed out. JP Morgan etc weren't broken up they were bailed out.

 They had a conflict of interest they were not only banks but dealers in stocks  and selling junk that would never appreciate and giving punters the credit to buy the crap at the same time all for the commissions.  How many Australian councils were burnt?

Same sex marriage will be a prohibition on religious freedoms of others. This argument was regarded as facile by the Supreme Court of America and is as facile here. There was a time when Catholics were not allowed to marry non Catholics. The priests simply refused to marry mixed faiths.  The law allowed them to get married. The same applies here. Same sex couples will not seek redress under anti-discrimination laws. Does Wilson get paid for $400k just to throw cats among pigeons?

By the way Massachusetts USA has had same sex marriage in the US for over 11 years and all social indicators show there is less divorce, improved education of children and even an increase in GDP of the state. All the conservative fear-mongering will come to naught. It will no doubt be dragged out here nevertheless. Yet another issue where the Republican base is dragging down GOP candidates like dead weight in a general election. In Australia is Abbott doing it to his supporters?

 Just minutes after the Supreme Court issued its historic ruling on marriage equality, Fox News began its campaign to portray the decision as a threat to "religious liberty."Since the June 26 Supreme Court decision in Obergefell v. Hodges, which found that bans on same-sex marriage are unconstitutional, Fox News has repeatedly warned viewers that the ruling threatens religious liberty. Fox personalities have peddled long debunked myths about churches and religious organizations being forced to celebrate same-sex weddings: 

 Fox's fear mongering is part of the network's broader religious liberty misinformation campaign, which has helped build support for discriminatory "religious freedom" laws across the country by highlighting horror stories about anti-gay business owners. Fox's reaction to the Obergefell decision is a preview of what we can expect from the network now that marriage equality is the law of the land - using "religious freedom" as their new rallying cry in the fight against LGBT equality.

On defending the indefensible Shorten

Link Corporate Paywall, Barry Cassidy, AFR,Daily Telegraph all by Bolt's Troll Peter from BH

Welcome to the ignorant world of Grace Collier who doesn't seem to know anything about bargaining everything has to be more more wages. That's her bottom line when it comes to a bargain. In that case why is Murdoch running a print empire that's losing $33 billion a year and still paying her a wage? How is it she wouldn't be caught dead calling Rupert an idiot that knows nothing about business? If she were told she had get the sack or step up her productivity I guess she'd refuse. Moronic sarcasm really does nothing for her standing other than identify her as a Newscorp drone. 

Cassidy happen to point out that the LNP were taking donations from the Calabrian Mafia which certainly weren't declared as such nor officially investigated. They took them in exchange for favors one that Amanda Vanstone  has obviously forgotten because she can't even be contacted to talk about them. Even Dennis Shanahan can't explain that away. Let alone the 10 ministers found guilty by ICAC for having their hands were out under the table. It goes to show the cut and thrust or paste of this blog. Let's wait and see if Bill is charged.

 The cost of this Royal Commission seems to be the LNP contract put out for little other than to get Shorten. How many assassins does it take for God Fathers Murdoch and Abbott to send out

Here we go again discredit everybody to keep the attention off Tony Abbott.In order to try to repair the damage caused by his petulant boycott of the ABC Abbott's strategists tried to formulate a face saving move that seems to have backfired. Get Turnbull to not go on Q&A on Monday while offering the ABC a  peace token by stopping the boycott on the condition that the ABC move Q&A to their news division. It would show that Abbott has  influence and the ABC had seen the error of their ways and life could move on. 

The problem  however  with an average audience of 550,000 Abbott needs Q&A   far more than the ABC needs him. The ABC is an Independent publicly funded broadcaster not a state funded one. Abbott should never have tried to bully them. His knee jerk reaction has done him more harm than good and he should just walk away. He's backed himself into a corner and yes it continues to make him look an idiot. Bolt's just trying to draw attention away from that.

France imports a deadly threat to the Jews. But they are just the first

" France now has 5 million Muslims"

Bolt does it here with numbers and paints every one of those people with the same brush just as Hitler once did with the Jews. I'm Catholic my father was Jewish but I would have been made to wear the star of David even if I'd had been a Nazi sympathizer. In fact my uncle was a Nazi. In other words things aren't as simple as Bolt would have us believe. Simplicity is little more than a sign of ignorance and prejudice of the kind that spear heads the racism Bolt alludes to.

France may have 5million people that identify as Muslim but not 5million that Bolt like Hitler identifies as Muslim. France is in the main Catholic and we don't tar the french with one brush. Many of these people find themselves economically and socially alienated in France at the bottom of every socioeconomic scale. Nor are they blind to world politics either. Israel and Palestine, Iraq and Syria have grabbed the attention of youth from a variety of backgrounds. They have become an International cause. French Moroccan, Algerian, Palestinian, Syrian,and Iraqi aren't cut from the same cloth nationality or faith wise.

  

Maybe Jews are feeling not just the consequence of being Jewish but simply they are symbolic of  the politics of Israel. Which have been extremely prominent recently. Bolt certainly lumps all Muslims together as he does Jews and doesn't distinguish the politics involved. So do equally prejudiced Muslims. What you don't hear from Bolt is the increasing number of Jews both in and out of Israel that are anti-Israel.

What we do see however is angry young men running off to or wanting to join a cause or a the war be it  in Syria or even Iraq. Just as young men ran to join the wars in the past against Franco, WW1 and WW2. We talk of radicalization in a uniform way when it's not it's much more complex than Bolt would have you believe . Young men have been drawn to a fight more so than girls or older adults. However the reality is often not what they'd hoped for and they would be of use  to tell others of the horrors if allowed to return. It doesn't however suit Abbott's politics.

These are just children. Their “race” is irrelevant

Link Pay Wall to Murdoch's Australian

The "myth of the stolen generations" is Bolt's justification for accepting intervention as the only valid form of Social Welfare. The historical record of  the numbers people separated from  their families  and their personal accounts are simply written off as Social Welfare. 

The distress that these interventions caused is referred to as kindness. Bolt simply ignores denies the historical record and here takes a single case as a point of generalization. Even in this example no effort was made to investigate the  holistic events that brought it about. The biological parents have no point of view. There is absolutely no effort to examine all the facts only those provided  from the foster carers perspective. That's sufficient for Bolt to deny the voices of generations of families that suffered because of their race. Bolt has no interest in the personal experiences of those concerned.

Marriage isn’t about showing we approve. It is about children

Well that is total bullshit. The traditional form of marriage is not universal it is  in fact culturally relative. It differs widely throughout cultures. There is no “universal system of ethics”.

 "The Na people of China, interestingly enough, do not incorporate marriage into their culture.  “Mothers exist, as do children, but there are no dads” (Geertz 202).  Sexual encounters occur between the sexes through “visits” by the man to the home of a female member of the Na"

" In Nepal, Tibetans consistently choose fraternal polyandry for economic reasons.  In this cultural structure, which is extremely rare outside of Tibet, “two, three, four or more brothers jointly take a wife”"the children of the household “consider all of the brothers as their fathers,”

The fact that Western influence is eroding differences is no argument for Cultural Universality. The reasoned, considered arguments against same-sex marriage :Gay people have been living right under our very heterosexual noses for years. Now they’re on the verge of getting married! Unbelievable!

The real story is Bill Shorten’s decline, not Abbott’s

" Someone in Abbott’s Cabinet is leaking to Peter Hartcher to destabilise Tony Abbott, and their identity is almost certainly known by Abbott."

 " what I see is less than what Hartcher portrays. It is not Abbott on the ropes",

How many times does Bolt let us know there's trouble in Paradise?

Now that's a sign of good leadership!!! The Liberal Party has him on a short leash and Bolt has been scurrying about not knowing which way to turn. Shorten has become his person of interest simply because Abbott continues down problem road.

Thank-you for the Advertisment Andrew Bolt. I'll pass it on.

 

Dear Professor Triggs. That’s our money, you know

Link Pay Wall to Murdoch's Australian

1)It's quite simple should Bolt ever be allowed compensation in the future because he is a convicted and serial offender. Bolt would obviously say no. Should enquiries be made into his status as an Australian citizen and should his convictions be stamped inside?  He is after all of dubious character.

2) The UNHRC is not the Australian UNHRC the Australian government is obliged to fund it if the government refuses to be a signatory to the Human Rights Convention. Is Bolt recommending the the government refuse anything to do with the United Nations in future?

3) So no Bolt it's not our money like yourself when found guilty there is a price to be paid. Remember your criticisms of Popovitch. Would you care repeating them?

No but yes. The Australian again confirms this will divide us by race

Link Pay Wall to Murdoch's Australian

Well I'm sure Chris Merrit couldn't give a rat's what Bolt has to say nor could Paul Kelly a far more senior and intelligent writer than Bolt. The once Murdoch editor wondered when and if the currant  editors of Murdoch press would shut him down. Paul Kelly doesn't rate Bolt too highly nor call him comrade it would appear.  Bolt is like Simon Lagree in Uncle Tom's Cabin can dish it out to Adam Goodes but can't abide by a verbal whipping himself. It's why his blogs are so heavily moderated  to constantly allow him to ask "Mirror, Mirror on the wall whose the greatest ". He can hand out personal vilification but reacts badly when it comes his way.

"Indeed, being 55, I am now more an “original possessor” of this land than most Australians with Aboriginal ancestors"

This comes from a position of power the colonizers a historical position which simply  forget the past winner take all. Given that Bolt declares that there is no connection to the past any longer then why the need for all this angst in recognition of the First Peoples. They did come before us. They always will have  and will always hold that position first. The notion of "First Peoples " is not racial.

 "how we’ve really imagined ourselves - as one people bound together by one law, with each of us judged as individuals and not on the basis of our “race”, tribe, wealth, class, faith, place of birth or “minority”. Bolt

This  is Bolt's abstraction and of those who want the current status quo  to remain and notions of difference obliterated. However that's not how we  envisage ourselves as  one people.  Rather  we see ourselves as a multicultural nation and our  laws try to take that into account when referring to 'mitigating circumstances'. However if the law does take multicultural reality into account it needs to accept the notion of indigenous collectives which Bolt seems to refuse outright.  Simply because he  doesn't like it is not good enough.

Bolt  advocates 'one people'  doesn't believe it because he simply lacks  "trust". If that isn't a racist position then what is?

"So it’s, er, yes, a race-based Parliament, although, don’t worry, it won’t have real power. We can buy off the Aborigines with this beads and blankets symbolism." Bolt

" And, of course, it is divisive, and dangerously so. It is inflammatory. It will lead to absolutely no good.  Once the principle of racial division is conceded, there will be no stopping the advocates of this newly tribalised Australia."Bolt

There is a significant difference when between advisory groups formed at grassroots advising from the bottom up from those chosen from the top down. Pearson wants assurance that is what the future will provide. Why should that bother Bolt so much given the groups are a toothless tigers? Further maybe it's what all groups in the community need to insist on given women are saying Abbott hasn't been listening.

Bolt's using the same conservative red herring used against same sex marriage once it's accepted all hell will break loose and who want to marry their dogs or their sisters will all have their hands up. There is a significant difference and the argument is total nonsense.Racist constitution does not reflect who we are

 

How to protect Adam Goodes, and with your race-glasses on

 Link Pay Wall to Murdoch's Australian

"Name one “populist cheerleader” who has called for Goodes to be booed." That's easy the past few days it's been ultra racist Herald Sun commentator and stirrer  Andrew Bolt.

Who has the most credit in this country Bolt the convicted Defamer and Racist or twice Brownlow medalist and Australian of the Year Adam Goodes.

1) It's every Australian's duty to call out bad behaviour even in public places. Had that 13 year old been on a tram ranting anti-Semitic  remarks to an Hassidic Jew and publicly reprimanded by Goodes. Bolt would have been applauding him. If the girl's father he role model didn't see fit to stop her then Goodes was perfectly correct to point her out and let her know she was wrong and offencive.

2) Bolt merely finds this an opportunity to label minorities and call them 'reverse racists'. Well I'm sorry Bolt the tail doesn't wag the dog. Minorities of any sort do not have the power. Therefore  haven't the ability to be racist no matter how much they complain.  Yes  Goodes was speaking for his race and in protest and had every right to. 

3)As for Bolt's malicious degrading  and mocking of Goodes for expressions of  pride and  his symbolic gestures it just shines a light on Bolt, who like the colonial Dutch Boors showed no respect for anything black or African. However if perceived disrespect was shown then heaven help the black.  Bolt's  Dutchman's message "a quite word to Goodes  is in order" is as much a threat here as in South Africa. There it would mean Goodes football career would be over due to broken body parts.  However we are in Australia why is this Boor Bolt?  'On ya': players back Goodes

Every step in and out of Australia spells danger for Bolt. Better to close the doors and pull down the blinds and stick your head up your... Never fear Abbott's here and has been for 18 mths telling us "I will keep you safe trust me". Prior to that why was it we  felt so comfortable in our skins? We were living in the best cities in the world and everybody was envious of us.

What happened? Were bombs going off all around us. Did the neighbourhood really change that much that every hipster we saw suddenly became a terrorist threat on a "fixie". Nothing happened!! Abbott got into power and Murdoch media started to tell us who the boogie men were. Within the past 18mths Tony Abbott has spent our Foreign Aid largely on Foreign War and National Security. We were told to cut the "how you going mate" to " what you looking at mother fucker". Tony told us he had to spend billions" to look over us" which really translated to "look more closely at us". In fact we were no longer  an "us" because deep among us was a "them" that needed to be found and crushed. Scott Morrison having seen  the Cronulla riots told the party that there was political advantage to be found in Mozzie baiting. They were 2% of the population and tended to reside in safe Labor seats.

Scared at home easy go on holiday. After all Indonesia, the Philipines and Thailand are all so so cheap. Be prepared however to be checked if your coming or going because the new priority was looking for "them". Look at airport security in a suspicious way  you just might not get on that plane. But then today Andrew Bolt is telling us the place he spent Xmas with his family is no longer safe your  because there are more of them out there than there are here. So just don't move stay at home and let Tony look after you.... Don't you feel your being well serviced , looked after under the Morrison Plan.
