hebrews 10:30-31...

vengeance is mine...

Whether it's the ABC, Fairfax or Murdoch, the media is desperately resolute in getting what it wants... The media does not want Gillard for a plethora of reasons, none of which make sense, but the media is gunning harder and harder to destabilise her leadership... One thing is for sure, behind all this, is a powerful religious lobby... The catholic hierarchy in Australia. Sure, they are not forward in overt claims in this affair, but they are in force behind the political scene.

The hunt is on...

Either way, the catholics in both major parties want "one of" their men selected to run this country. Whether it's Rudd or Abbott they don't care. Rudd is supported by the catholics in the Labor Party and the catholics plus all the other abominable denominations are supporting the abominable Abbott in the Liberal gangster party. They would have to know that Abbott is a loose cannon — a firebrand neocon, but behind him are many more loose cannons: Hockey, Bishop x2, Mirabella, Robb, Minchin, Pyne, Truss, Brandis, Morrison, just to name a few. All are bitter people who have shown time and time again they have no clue about running this country or to use the quote by Mark Latham are "pure evil"... 


For example, Brandis and Julie Bishop are completely blind to the constitutional reality... They have shown time and time again this by trying many stupid tricks, including Julie claiming that since the election had been announced, the government was in caretaker mode, thus no new policy could be passed... What a lot of bullshit codswallop.
One problem here is like it or hate it, the Gillard government survives and strives by the grace of the independents and should Julia Gillard be rolled, then Labor is in more trouble than it could ever be. 


The second thing here is that the media and the opposition (110 per cent supported by the media) is worried sick that Julia could pull it off....They are getting tired of having to wait for another 100 days or whatever in which labor will pass more legislation and a time during which the opposition is likely to show more of its loopy hypocrisy. The opposition is worried its dark "soul" and its stupidity will come to the surface. Thus the media, the opposition, the catholics (who are taking a beating in the courts with the Royal Commission on sex abuses) all want Julia — the ATHEIST — to die... Some other people may think that Rudd is a "fairy tale in the making" but trust Latham on this one: Rudd is "pure (political) evil"...


Meanwhile we have this other opinionator with zero credibility, Gerard Henderson, who tries to bury Malcolm Fraser because the good man  — who was a moderate rat bag in the Liberals (conservatives) until he left in disgust at this party being led by an ultra-rite wing unworthy little shit neocon — has now become a voice for the Greens... Good one, Mr Fraser. Gerard should die of shame for writing his crap.


I'll say to Bill Shorten — a brave man who is going under the gun from the stupid riff-raff — to hold his position steady... There is far more dignity is staying the present course than trying to save the deck chairs and veer right into the wall at the same time... 


Remember the position of South Sydney Rabbitohs (a bastion of "catholic" Labor supporters), who were under the gun from various direction... As they were being sunk by criterias, possibly devised to sink them, as money were poured by Mr Murdoch to promote other teams that were more than broke — say Cronulla to only mention one of them — ahead of the "Rabbits", while Eddie Obeid was trying to force the Rabbits to merge with Cronulla so he could make some dosh with a "redevelopment"... and Alan Jones wanted the Rabbits to merge with Canberra for whatever reason which I don't remember here, one man stood fast against all. It was survive alone or die moment... The Rabbits survived by beating Mr Murdoch in the courts and are now top of the ladder, though the game has changed somewhat...


Gus.

This is an "encore" article, as they now call a repeat program on the box...

after menugate, comes parachutenewmangate...

Queensland's Liberal National Party (LNP) is playing down reports of a secret recording of party hierarchy offering MP Bruce Flegg an inducement to quit Parliament.

Dr Flegg, the Government's former housing minister and now a LNP backbencher, has refused to confirm if he secretly recorded party officials discussing how to parachute Premier Campbell Newman into state politics.

The Crime and Misconduct Commission (CMC) has previously found no evidence that Dr Flegg was offered an inducement to quit his Brisbane seat of Moggill to make way for Mr Newman, the then-Brisbane mayor.

But the Courier-Mail newspaper has today published secret recordings outlining lucrative job offers in the US, London and Asia.

The offers were allegedly made through former LNP treasurer and now federal senator in-waiting, Barry O'Sullivan.

unfair game...

Electorally stricken, Gillard is now, apparently, fair game. Nobody ever aimed such insults at Malcolm Fraser, Bob Hawke, Paul Keating, John Howard or Kevin Rudd. Nor has what goes on behind the bedroom door in The Lodge been considered an appropriate subject for discussion.

But, nine days short of the third anniversary of being sworn in as prime minister, Gillard is like a woman being stoned to death in an ancient ritual. Indignities have been heaped on her by an Australia where men behaving badly suddenly seems to have been exposed as the secret default position of many.

Nothing signified it more than the Perth broadcaster Howard Sattler asking the Prime Minister to her face in a radio interview if her partner, Tim Mathieson, was gay. The outrage was immediate.

Veteran feminist Eva Cox thinks something broke in Australian public life this week.

''What happened to all the legislation, the education programs? Civil discourse has been swept aside in a brutal race to be the most repugnant,'' she says.
''A few days ago, it was racism. Now it's women. It's almost as if they're saying 'we can do and say what we like - try and stop us'.
''Seriously, it looks like we've learnt very little. The level of abuse is worse than it was 10 years ago. Just join the dots.''

Years of effort to bring equality into the Australian Defence Force appear to have come to nought, with high-ranking army officers accused of distributing footage of soldiers engaged in sex after a long investigation by NSW police.
In the sports world, Osieck's remark came hard on the heels of Eddie McGuire's racist comments about Sydney Swans champion Adam Goodes.

Osieck was caught at a Socceroos post-victory news conference telling a male Football Federation Australia official he was pushing him around like a woman, telling him where to sit. Classically educated, the German made a comment in Latin and then translated it for the sporting media.

''Women should shut up in public … I say it to my wife at home, it is a private one, OK,'' he told the Melbourne news conference. ''And you record that one as well? I am going to be the darling of all Australian wives.''

HOW TO PROMOTE RUDD BY THE TELEGRAPH
COMMENT BY GUS IN CAPITAL LETTERS 


SELF-CERTAIN, intolerant, dismissive, good with ordinary people but reclusive from his own parliamentary caucus, Kevin Rudd was the closest thing to a little dictator we've had in modern times. Sometimes, a dictator can fit the times.
...AND YOU ARE GOING TO GET A LITTLE SHIT DICTATOR ANYWAY, SO IT WIL FIT THE TIMES. VOTE ABBOTT...

Only met the bloke a couple of times but up close Rudd doesn't seem so maniacal.
I DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHY PEOPLE WHO WORK WITH HIM DON'T LIKE HIM

David Marr in his Quarterly Essay on Rudd described him as a deeply angry person. I'd describe Rudd as a person who suffers a deep intellectual pain, which has crossed to the physical.
RUDD IS A PHILOSOPHER WITH A BIG ENORMOUS GIGANTIC SUPER LARGE EGO THAT GIVES HIM THICK ANKLES

It pains him that he counts himself among the world's greatest diplomat-philosophers.
RUDD SEES HIMSELF AS JESUS OF CAESARIA BEFORE HE DISCOVERS HE'S NOT CHRIST

He casually refers to Henry Kissinger as "Henry", thereby forcing himself, uninvited, into the pantheon of the greats. The truth is that he probably does belong in such company, in intellect if not in international stature.
YES KEV IS ONE OF THE GREATS AMONGST HENRY, GEORGE, ADOLPH, LEONID, ARTHUR, WILLIAM, GENGHIS, HAGAR, ATTILA, NAPOLEONE ET AL...

That is Rudd's hurt: who acknowledges his genius, apart from Rudd himself?
GENIUS IS TO KNOW WITH CERTAINTY WE HAVE TWO ORIFICES TO OUR DIGESTIVE TRACT

Certainly not the Australian Labor Party, and not even the public, even though it wants Rudd to lead Labor at the next election.
OUR RUPERT HAS DECIDED THAT RUDD SHOULD LEAD THE LABOR PARTY INTO DEFEAT.

Public affection for Rudd is not based on his discourses on Dietrich Bonhoeffer, the German theologian who, like Rudd, actively conspired against his leader (Bonhoeffer's leader was Adolph Hitler. The SS hanged him).
THE TELEGRAPH IS NOT SUBTLE HERE. THE TELEGRAPH WANTS YOU TO SEE RUDD AS A KIND OF BONHOEFFER, CONSPIRING AGAINST HIS LEADER HITLER (JULIA)... THEREFORE THE TELEGRAPH WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE JULIA IS HITLER... ACTUALLY THE TELEGRAPH WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE THAT JULIA IS STALIN, SINCE SHE IS FROM THE LEFT...

Nor do they await the latest of Rudd's speeches to influential US think-tanks, in which he uses his undeniable charm to subtly undermine the racist American view that China's First World emergence is an act of militaristic aggression.
THE TELEGRAPH WANTS YOU TO BELIEVE THAT KEV KNOWS MORE ABOUT CHINA THAN JULIA. BUT THE TELEGRAPH DOES NOT WANT YOU TO KNOW JULIA KNOWS MORE ABOUT HOW TO HONESTLY MANAGE THE DIFFICULT DICHOTOMY OF THE CHINA/US RELATIONS.

judas...

The mass merdia media is full of shit... And the misogynists are in full force, including Mike Carlton... Men like him have disgraced the gender. They have gone all bull and rather than show they have balls and defend an embattled Prime Minister — embattled, not through her own fault but for being a clever woman and because the agenda has been set in the dark sewer pipes of a gutter press in conspiracy with a dark religious cabal. Mike, you are the pits... You fucking well know that Julia could actually win the election at this point, but this would give you the shits, would it not?... 

Enough of you misogynist crocodile tears, Mike... You are diving into the pool of your own Scheiße...

patience, you seeking rights...

A women's rights group has accused Prime Minister Kevin Rudd of treachery for his treatment of predecessor Julia Gillard.

The Victorian Women's Trust has placed full-page advertisements in a number of Australian newspapers praising Ms Gillard's achievements and slamming both Labor and the Liberal parties for their actions over the past three years.

The statement says Mr Rudd orchestrated a treacherous "seek-and-destroy" mission against Ms Gillard, while Tony Abbott made opportunistic appeals to people's prejudices.

The trust says the past three years were poisonous and led to a great loss of civility and decency.

It says the mainstream media failed to engage in dispassionate reporting and it accuses seasoned reporters of becoming players in an aggressive campaign of sexist and chauvinistic abuse.

The trust says the seams of contempt and sexism should be cause for reflection on what is needed to restore respect and "a fair go" for women.

It says it used donations to pay for the advertisement

------------------------

Good... But I would invite the Victorian Women's Trust to be patient... What can come after vengeance? Hopefully justice... "After the elections" will be a totally different ball game... "Patience and time do more good, than rage and fist-fights..." used to say Ma Leonisky...

rudd's deflated balloons...

 

Senior Labor Senator Stephen Conroy has slammed former prime minister Kevin Rudd's new rules for choosing the ALP's leader, labelling them a "farce".

The new rules stipulate that the leader must be elected jointly by the party membership and by Caucus, with each given equal weighting.

Mr Rudd announced an overhaul of the ALP's leadership-selection process after he returned to the prime ministership in June.

Bill Shorten, a right-wing factional leader, announced on Wednesday that he would run for the leadership, while Anthony Albanese - from Labor's left - has yet to announce whether he will run.

If there is more than one candidate the leadership will go to a vote, but the party-member ballot would take a month to complete.

 

...
No election credit for Rudd

Meanwhile, Senator Conroy credited clever campaigning by local MPs, rather than Mr Rudd, for Labor's better-than-expected election result.

Labor defied polls to hold almost all of its seats in Queensland and western Sydney.

Mr Rudd's return to the leadership saw an improvement in the polls for the ALP, but Senator Conroy put Labor's result down to good campaigning from local MPs and state branches.

"The forecast massive losses in western Sydney, in Victoria, and in Queensland didn't eventuate and that's a tribute to the on-the-ground campaigning of the MPs in their seats - it's a tribute to the state branches," he said.

As shown in the toon at top, I believe Rudd's return to the leadership was largely due to "revenge"... The perfect result would have been that the Labor party be returned in a minority government with the Greens and Rudd losing his seat...
