John Richardson's blogblack ops .....What a pack of clowns they are. What a bunch of jumped-up nongs they must have been. The Liberal Party back-room apparatchiks now parading before the Independent Commission Against Corruption are revealed, at last, in all their infantile stupidity.
the lucky country .....from Politicoz …..
so much for the "we" .....In the age of Twitter, a 700-page book about wealth distribution is an odd pathway to celebrity.
all in the family ....from Politicoz ….. ICAC explodes on NSW Liberals …..
hockzilla ....from Crikey …. It's hard to recall a pre-budget process in which a government's messages have been more confused than this one.

We did not claim or annex Iraq’s territory. We did not grab its resources for our own gain. Instead, we ended our war and left Iraq to its people and a fully sovereign Iraqi state that could make decisions about its own future.”
remembering gelibolu .....introducing George Venturini ….. “One of the most horrible features of war is that all the war-propaganda, all the screaming & lies & hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting.” George Orwell
