Random Notes - Idle Thoughts
Random Note โ When is a speech not a speech?
The reason it was so effective is because it wasnโt a speech at all as we understand a typical speech to be from a politician.
A speech is more prepared lines with a beginning, a middle and an end.

Random Note โ Antisemitism Bondi
I notice a great deal of political and media hesitation and hand handwringing about how to curb antisemitism. Actually itโs not difficult at all and in fact quite easy. The left likes to think itโs tricky and complicated (itโs not) and might offend. Well, good. Itโs...
Random Note โ Antisemitism Bondi
Albanese, Wong and Burke, with their insincere, mealy mouthed weasel words over the last two years, by failing to act on antisemitism and for the sake of political expediency, have trashed and sacrificed Australiaโs reputation as a safe place, a place of fundamental...
Random Note โ A Primer On Political Corruption
After reading several books on this over the last number of years, broadcaster and podcaster, Glen Beck goes one better and distills and condenses the events since 2016 in American politics down to 15 minutes or so. Itโs only when you again hear those events...
Random Note — Orwell and Gaslighting
In 2025 we call it gaslighting but just remember this 1949 Orwell observation from his dystopian book, 1984 next time youโre told that renewables are cheaper and then you take a second look at your electricity bill. It's exactly the same thing.

Random Note โ Gulliver’s Travels (3am Ruminations)
When youโre young, whether at school or at home, reading or having a story read to you, itโs rarely explained that these arenโt just stories for the sake of it but rather, allegories. That is a story using symbolic characters, events, and settings to represent and...
Random Note โ In The National Interest
There are times when the use of the phrase โin the national interestโ has its place. There are issues and moments when it applies. But far to often in more recent times it has become a โgo toโ set of words deployed to push emotional buttons and trigger an emotional...
