Andrew Bolt's Blog,12/9/16; When mental ill health gets in the way of Bolt's narrative; What did Mr Nope Nope Nope Really acieve?; Hilary or Trump to err is human Bolt.. but then you think you don't; Comparing prison systems is bad news. Yes it is for us; Laughing at God; Creditism vs Saving, Nice enemies "et tu Brutus" Herald Sun,





Man charged with committing terrorist act in Sydney and attempted murder
" Police sources told Fairfax Media that Mr Khan is a hardline religious zealot and has serious mental health issues including schizophrenia."
" He was also charged with maliciously damaging property when he destroyed an Australian flag in 2013 yet the matter was dealt with under the Mental Health Act."
Should we be surprised that Andrew Bolt overlooked the Mental Health issues involved with this case and when Christian  Paranoid Schizophrenics commit violent acts their religion isn't primarily blamed for their actions but their mental ill health is.
This will have become a case used by Bolt to amplify his narrative but will rarely be used again because of the mental condition of Khan. Bolt's narrative is hardly convincing when all his examples Haider Monis and Khan had proved mental conditions of ill health. In the same breath Bolt's tried to deny this fact has any relevance.
Andrew Bolt is far more deserving of being treated and charged as a dangerous religious provocateur than a 22 year old already known to police and previously treated under the Mental Health Act .

 


 

 

 

Clinton sorry for "racist" smear 

 

  

Bolt got this blog wrong this was a repeat of yesterday's does he actually do any work on his blog? Was this yet another Bolt brain freeze? The man in fact intended to take Trump's line today that Hilary is physically incapable of being President.  Bolt posted his blog took his shot and posted yesterday's blog. He doesn't know what he's doing who does? He had the brain freeze he's says Hilary had. The man is a media joke and like Trump just an over produced name which seriously means nothing and going down. What a chump he doesn't know what he wants to achieve. Yes he did take is this first attempt down after showing us  that he couldn't hit a barn wall if locked inside.

From Yesterday but posted today to tell us Hilary is unwell oops wrong blog

 What a dickhead Andrew Bolt is  he actually edits out what Clinton did in fact say. Any way it goes to show he is one of her "deplorables" and a backer of Donald Trump Fox News's leading money maker. There is no mention of her regret for being overly generalistic. That's left to be buried at the end of his overly bigoted disparagement of her.

Hillary Clinton has expressed regret over her controversial statement that half of Donald Trump’s supporters belonged in a “basket of deplorables”.
Clinton made the remark when speaking at a gala event for the group LGBT for Hillary in New York City on Friday night, saying: “You know, to just be grossly generalist, you could put half of Trump’s supporters into what I call the basket of deplorables. Right?
“The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic – you name it. And unfortunately, there are people like that. And he has lifted them up.
“Some of those folks,” she added, “they are irredeemable.”
In a statement released on Saturday afternoon, the Democratic presidential nominee repeated that she had been being “grossly generalistic” but expressed regret for “saying ‘half’”, adding: “That was wrong.”
It was wrong far more than half of  Trumps supporters are deplorables of one kind or another  very Bolt in their political sensitivities. 
 
This is Bolt's Second Shot at trying to hit the barn wall. 

Clinton faints, dragged into car

Here is Andrew Bolt parroting the Trump misogynist line that no woman could possibly be as fit as me. The fact is more experienced, more skilled under any condition or position Trump could ever be when it comes to politics. Running for President will have severely damaged the Trump brand rather than improved it how is that for an astute business man

Clinton faints, dragged into car
 
Here is who Bolt prefers Trump, the man who has the stamina who learns from  his mistakes as  does Andrew Bolt so much so he repeats them.

When questions are warranted don't ask whether or not what we are doing is right just isolate the problem and give them more of the same but harder. Never ever ask "Are we the problem?" It just might open a can of worms that we don't want to face.. Bolt's not interested in the circumstances nor the context which he so often says is missing. In other words he's like Abbott when he says "I'm not interested in the information or data just the politics" The the way of ultra conservatives on the road to achieve fascism  the goal. Prison guards are never the victims of those they are expected to guard. They are  as much victims  of the system of justice we apply.

How is it one or two guards without weapons guard prisoners in Norway without the situations Bolt describes as being too soft. They guard murderers people convicted of far more serious crimes than juveniles. Criminals committed to long sentences  but never harsh ones. Bolt doesn't even bother to ask why? No political advantage that's why. So don't bother to even ask.

Turnbull's year of nothing - compare his reco...

 Image result for Image of kindness

 Abbott's year of broken promises of no cuts to Education Health,and the ABC.  The cruelty justified by lies of terror and the need for war. Compared with Malcolm Turnbull's immediate year of relief that Abbott was gone.

 Remember the years of Labour despite their internal stupidities it was the years of Swan when we felt like the best economy in the world and were seen as such untouched by the GFC. What was Abbott doing but bleating like Chicken Little telling us the sky was falling in and to "ditch the bitch" who was getting things done. Something Abbott was never able to do having the worst record since John Gorton. 

Who was Tony Abbott back then but the boy who cried Wolf about the economy  which Hockey told NZ was not really in trouble and then suddenly Abbott said he "fixed". How about  Carbon science was bullshit it wasn't going to damage the world and he dumped the Carbon Tax and subsidized dirty energy by doing away with the mining tax. Fuck our kids future we aren't Norway we don't save our resources will last forever and mining corporations are Australia's true friends

  People are dangerous and we will stop them from drowning but no we won't stop them from contracting Ebola.  We are in danger and are being invaded by children and ISIS is here if it isn't it's on it's way so we need to go to war and like the Vietnamese bomb them back into the stone age.

BA  Before Abbott this country was admired. We thought of ourselves with pride we were Aussies a country that welcomed people a true rainbow nation.. When Abbott became PM the shit did hit the fan and a dark cloud spread over us and things got worse for our freedoms and the barriers to the rest of the world went up.  Freedom of information and government transparency was stopped dead in it's tracks. We went to war.  600 corporations were rewarded  by the sacking of 3,500 ATO workers, the NBN  that was to take us into the world of e-commerce and e-medicine was destroyed and set back 50 years. We went from 30th in the world to 64th in the technology which Tony Abbott called an "entertainment system". A knew  domestic security force was established the ABF a domestic police  with the power to stop anyone on the streets anytime and ask for our IDs.  Our Detention Centers were filled and became our Guantanamo but filled with women and children.. We became a divided nation where  the wealthy were being rewarded and the the poor, the indigenous  the Muslims the workers and the next generation punished proof in the fact that the income gap was widening and the Middle class shrinking. The middle class were paying for their kids education, housing, health they weren't leaving home because there was no guarantee of work. They were being attacked by the Abbott government simply because they were less likely to vote for Abbott. Our National pride was stripped and shame filled the void. Bolt has the gall to tell us our kids world was being improved by Abbott.

Malcom Turnbull's greatest achievement was to rid us of the megalomaniac Abbott declared the world's worst leader in the developed world and Andrew Bolt says " How bad is Malcolm Turnbull? Even he struggles to name one thing he’s achieved since becoming Prime Minister." How easily we have forgotten the ice age that came with Tony Abbott  the point is as humans we have this amazing capacity to forget pain and with it the lessons learnt. Watch Bolt he never really talks of yesterday the truths of history why? We change when we need to and that is not an arena he want's to  enter  or argue about. It's easier to blame the victims in Australia and call them laggards than actually do what's necessary to create opportunity.  The Abbott years the years of lies and misinformation are easily forgotten despite being painful for  main stream Australia. All Bolt is doing today is avoiding the language  that best described Abbott the painmaker.

The question what has MT done has to be seen in the light of what Abbott did and that's the biggest and foremost achievement. He has humanized Australia and returned some of our pride.  "Turnbull’s official list of achievements is so embarrassingly tiny that his staff have padded it with things they’ve stolen from Abbott’s." This is Bolt's essence in describing the world as we know it's why Abbott was Mr Nope Nope Nope. Why there was an era of non achievement and no bills passed. It was the era of ownership not just of property and wealth but culture and conversation an era that we demanded to think of ourselves a British and European not black and Asian. When history was controlled in schools,  our Arts dictated to by one man an era of Abbott. No Turnbull has just softened the rot we all felt

 It's always the Conservatives that spend  the money saved at home on building submarines and toys of war that are rarely used they call them "deterants" what proof do they were ever of use ? Oh Vietnam no that didn't deter anyone. So is it better to prepare for drought prevention or just wait for a drought to occur? Should we prepare for the onset of an illness or just wait. Bolt seems to prefer challenging nature and spending money on real deterants like Military hardware and people in uniform. He says he's agnostic. But nobody laughs at god in a hospital or in a drought or when no clean water is available.

 

Super stuff-up: super shouldn't be for sucker...

This Peter BH 's Blog

When the middle class are fast losing their savings and debt has become the order of the day. When Australians are the most debt ridden nation in the world and banks are in the business of making profit from debt. How on earth can Ergas begin to even talk about the economics of saving? Fact under employment is the order of the day so much so even banks are beginning to worry. Their profits are in danger in as much the youth of today can't afford to get into more than pay day debt. They take cash out on their credit cards to make it through the week and are immediately paying the maximum rate of interest 25% plus. What savings model is Ergas talking about?

 "To make matters worse, the age pension is, and will no doubt remain, indexed much more generously, rising in line with the higher of consumer prices or nominal wages" Ergas

When a pensioner gets $20,000 pa and a politician earns $300,000 I believe Ergas hasn't a clue of the meaning of the word generosity

"The proposal would, in other words, punish increasingly severely those people who save for themselves relative to those whose retirement is paid for by taxpayers." Peter BH speaking for Bolt

I believe the economy is one based on creating debt and debt slavery it's not about encouraging saving at all. That is the issue debt is an assett when it's an investment but it's not when it's life.

" It won’t be easy but the base doesn’t want Labor: they just want the ­Coalition to do better." Credlin 

Credlin believes MT needs to get on the Bolt Report  or Paul Murray  Sky News. In other words who it is she works for in order to speak to and get on with the Coalition Base  50,000 is the audience sounds like an extremely small base for a major party. Their ratings in fact remain a tightly held secret why?  

As for Abbott just ask what te rat's been doing while the PM was away. That's what Peter BH calls loyalty

What's amazing is when one man's stupidity is confronted by another. Suggesting David Morrison is advocating bringing back black face by wearing high heels is doing an Eddie McGuire. We have the gay parade in Sydney when everyone is welcome particularly men to wear high heels. The purpose being to walk with women. The Herald  Sun is doing is doing an Eddie as he did on Caroline Wilson . They can't help themselves their purpose is diametrically the opposite of what we see here. But what can you expect from Bolt's team.

Andrew Bolt's Blog 29/7/16; Look at Bolt's disgusting "Context"; Throw out due process cries Bolt; If a Muslim pops his head up whack it! Scuttlebutt!!!; Abbott and Bolt a barracking for NZ at the Olympics; Selectvity and vigilante justice;

 

The ABC has misled the public about this ‘torture’

Wrong Bolt

 

 

" The ABC Four Corners presentation of this incident is looking more suspicious by the day."

Bolt's "yes/but " was so predictable I said when you hear that you know the blame will be shifted and the argument will become circular. What a surprise is it's taken so long  for Bolt to figure out what it was he had to say the dumb character in Homer Simpson is so much quicker, simply blame the victim. I guess it's difficult for Bolt who mostly makes statements out of context to suddenly turn around and demand that it be done here because it just might mean examining a system that has brutalized kids for a very very long time. In Voller's case for over 10 years. It also requires a few days to pass in order to be able to deflect attention away from the rest of the footage which showed  the use of tear gas on boys and the attitude of  the correction staff. That too is a "yes but" for Bolt is it?

The Mental Health Act allows for extreme measures of restraint to be placed on psychotic intensive care patients when a danger to themselves and others but only under the care of a doctor and professional psychiatric nurses. However strict and legal procedures need to be adhered to. I wasn't aware that NT juvenile corrections facilities substituted for Psychiatric hospitals as well . In Victoria these rules are in place for adults. I'm sure their far stricter for children. What's more the nurses aren't all 16.5 stone men either. However there are code grey procedures in place if necessary and security can be called as a last resort.

"A troubled boy with behavioral problems, Dylan Voller has been in and out of juvenile detention since he was 11 years old."

So put in "context" Andrew Bolt the question is why has this boy been in juvenile detention at all ? Why is he being treated as an intensive psych patient in a prison? Why wasn't he transferred out to a hospital after  this length of time? 

 It get's worse Bolt goes on to say   "I think Four Corners has fundamentally misrepresented Voller as a mere “boy” and a “victim”, and misrepresented the restraint of this violent and potentially self-harming teenager as torture."

The " potentially self harming boy" should never have been in prison in the first place the facility didn't have the means or skills to handle him and that's the very point the ABC was making and an inquiry is necessary. What's not necessary is an apologist for a broken juvenile system of  justice. If this is happening to one boy what is happening to the rest? Bolt doesn't seem to care! The ABC asking the question is inciting unwarranted outrage.  That statement alone indicates that Social Services need to in vestigate Bolt's behavior around children. 

Notice how Bolt has forgotten and put aside the rest of the 4 corner footage. The gassing and the attitudes shown by the burly corrections staff that has been edited out of Bolt's "context." The whole juvenile justice system in Australia needs examination given the model displayed in the NT  The Hard Questions: Youth Detention Doesn’t Make Anyone Safer, Justice Reinvestment Does – New Matilda

Chief Commissioner hails Pell’s “victims”. UPDATE: This witch hunt is an abuse of state power

Wrong Bolt

 

Pell is little more than Bolt's media tool sensationalizing something that is otherwise normal police procedure. He might appear to be Pell's white knight  but really he's not. He wants attention and Pell has been his means his tool to get it. Notice if a woman accuses a man of rape and is making a public statement in tears what Bolt's reaction is. "No need for a court, then."

" More Catholics are coming to understand that the ABC’s attack on George Pell is driven in large part by a desire to discredit their church. Given that, they must fight back." Bolt

No Bolt they are reporting and placing facts and information in the public domain. Unlike yourself who is acting as a public relations office and making judgements in fear of due process taking place. It's big difference there is however no accounting for stupidity. Where on earth do we see the ABC or the police making a judgement nowhere!

 

 

 

Keysar Trad? Head of our top Muslim body?

Wrong Bolt

 

This sounds so much like Andrew Bolt it's amazing!!

" `The criminal dregs of white society colonised this country . . . and the descendants of these criminal dregs tell us that they are better than us.’’ Trad

" Australians are joining terror groups because their “blood is boiling” at domestic persecution." Trad

This what Bolt denies he's doing but he has been the major media recruiter for ISIS in Australia and still is on a daily basis. He even feels heroic saying he's had to shift his family in fear. Fear generated by what? All these years he's been committing psychological domestic violence simply by working from home to serve his own interests.

hypocritical Australian laws, vitriolic media and repeated invasions in the Middle East were pushing young Muslims “to the margins of society” and driving them to radicalisation."Trad

I sense this man has his finger on the pulse if Muslims are forced to the voice of Andrew Bolt in the media every day. He is the media voice of the UPF and other extremist right wing groups. Who don't know what or care what they are saying. Kick the UAE out of Australia cries Andrew Bolt forgetting that's where Abbott parked our air force who now bomb Syria. Was it our bombs that destroyed 4 hospitals and killed 200 innocent people women and children in Aleppo. Is that why some young men get angry ?

The pot calling the kettle black Bolt was convicted of racial vilification not in a defamation case but under the RDA. Somehow you'd think Bolt would be defending Trad's right to speak out not vilifying him. Bolt is hypocrisy on two legs.

" n 2009, the New South Wales Supreme Court found that Mr Trad ‘incites people to commit acts of violence’, ‘incites people to have racist attitudes’ and is a ‘dangerous and disgraceful individual’. This stemmed from a defamation case that Mr Trad brought against Harbour Radio… 


 " Mr Trad chose to tell a joke and described these types of perpetrators as ‘stupid young boys’. The court said that his comments about the issue ‘demeaned the victims of the crime’, ‘did not condemn the perpetrators’ and ‘trivialised the responsibility of rapists.’ .."Cory Bernardi

 Isn't Bolt trying to normalize the events and behavior of the correction officers in  the case of Dylan Voller



 

Why are our taxes going to Hillary Clinton’s foundation?

Wrong Bolt

 

Truth an independent report indicated the Clinton Foundation has been the most transparent of all the Presidential Foundations that went before it. Since Hilary Clinton had entered the race for nomination as Democratic candidate the foundation has listed it's donors quarterly. No other foundation has done the same. Australia has always donated to Presidential Foundations so what this is is scuttlebutt

 


 

Turnbull’s Cabinet cannot even say a simple no

Wrong Bolt

 

 

Bolt got this wrong too

Government Refuses To Back Kevin Rudd For UN Secretary-General – BuzzFeed News 

However what Bolt calls a trivial issue of nth degree of importance happens to make it to the front page of his slag rag the Herald Sun. Why would that be? Because it's simply the IPA , DelCon and News Corp strategy to try and raise Lazarus again. Drip by drip the acid intended to wear away the the broad church foundations of the LNP and turn it into the sharp end of the stick Party we will all be forced to endure.  If Abbott does return we will all become Palestinians under his Israeli imported National Security measures. How proud he must be of the ABF the drug cartel he established when he was our leader before. These were the force who could stop anybody in the street and demand to see our papers.

 "God knows how Turnbull’s Cabinet will go discussing something important."Is there anything Bolt does or says that isn't an indication of just how much he hates Australia?  Grow up Andrew Bolt Na nana nana just doesn't cut it. The last cabinet had Eric Abetz declaring abortion causes cancer. Cory Bernardi advice about the slippery slope to bestiality, Abbott's revival of knights and dames and so so much more.

"But Foreign Minister Julie Bishop and Turnbull, in part to discredit Abbott, unwound that fix." Every opportunity for paranoia and sour grapes. What on earth is Abbott doing supporting another country? Is he going to cheer for NZ at the Olympics because Turnbull's PM?


 

 

 

 

Who let them in?

Wrong Bolt

 

 A selective  focus is just calling for vigilante justice. Bolt would have that written into the Australian constitution. No not everyone is born equal in his Australia.  For him justice is determined by the Bolt's thumbs up or down  Pell is innocent. Black Africans are guilty and don't deserve any due process.

You'd think with a fist full of darts Bolt might hit the dart board once even by accident.
