Just saw an ad for Ch.9's new answer to Q & A , "The Verdict".....voiceover goes "featuring Australia's most insightful minds, including Mark Latham, Jackie Lambie .....and footy legend Campbell Brown...."
"Much of the social history of the Western world, over the past three decades, has been a history of replacing what worked with what sounded good...."

“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

That Ch 9 show will be just another example of the modern media and so called "journalism"  :sleep. Tryhards being deliberately "controversial" with cherry-picked strawman arguments about topics they have no qualifications in, just to attract attention to themselves and whatever media organisation they are working for. The TV equivalent of radio shock-jocks. See Andrew Bolt  :sleep.   


Anyway, I see the Libs are back onto the cutting penalty rates bandwagon again. Had to laugh at Turnbull today saying he supports it if it doesn't leave workers worse off. Ummm Malcolm, how does cutting people's take-home pay not leave people worse off :facepalm.

Latest poll put Libs ahead 51 to 49.

Getting rid of Peta Credlin was the key.

Tony might have survived if he had ditched the uber-control  freak.



lol no one but you gives a rats abaout her.

abbott is a buffoon and most even minded people can see it

Article in the Age says much the same.

On the phone at the beach at Hoi An so can't post the link.

And I have been talking about the woman for a couple of years

And her husband will be the next to go.

and there he goes.

STATE MPs have been gagged from using the word “rort” in the Legislative Assembly after Speaker Telmo Languiller deemed it unparliamentary.

there is just so much irony in what these ignorant half wits are on about
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.

So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

If they don't like it, leave!?

Sorry, in Australia, in our CONSTITUTION, we have a freedom to practice which ever religion we like. THAT is Australian.

If people don't like Islam, they can go find a country that only allows Christianity.
