Random Notes - Idle ThoughtsMemo from an old soldier: Trump can’t save America by himself. Clinton can destroy it. Don Feder, American Thinker
The tragedy is most Americans and most Australians for that matter wouldn’t have a clue who Gramsci, Alinsky or Hayden were and therein lies the root cause of the problem. They’re all dead but not their combined legacy, with the hard left 60’s radical activist and former husband of “Hanoi” Jane Fonda, (now there’s a hint right there) Tom Hayden, dying only 2 weeks ago.
An Exercise In Logic And Extrapolation
Trump: The Art Of The Real — American Thinker
They had the creator of the empire, Augustus; we had Reagan. They had ineffective, licentious Tiberius and Caligula; we had Bill Clinton. They had Claudius, who dabbled in foreign wars; we had W. They had Nero, an egomaniac who brought the empire to the brink of ruin; we have Obama.
A list of the media’s enemies of free speech — Andrew Bolt
A list of ungrateful rabble and scum. All 173 of them. And all Junior woodchucks and Gramsci wannabes who don’t know what they don’t know. Project Australia is wasted on the lot of them. Pearls before swine as the saying goes.
Government complicit in promoting 18C moral crusaders — John Carroll, The Australian
Any crusade needs a faith. Since the 1960s, it has mainly been a neo-Marxist ideology of domination and oppression that has prevailed. According to it, modern Western capitalist societies are Satanic oppressors of the weak and the disadvantaged. Bill Leak’s caricature of a dysfunctional indigenous family hit the nerve with unintended forensic precision. What is new in this history of intolerance is the role of the state.
Requiem for responsible journalism — The Washington Times
When the campaign smoke clears after Election Day, and Americans see the president they elected, the reputation of the media will lie among the ruins. The art of journalism has taken a pasting as a source of credible information. Masters of the press can blame only themselves, but they won’t do that. The losers are the innocent and naïve who think the media preserves the distinction between fact and fiction. The notion that the press should give light and let the people …find their own way has evaporated in the newsrooms.
Vlad Putin gets it. The West is cannibalising itself
Bang on Vlad. Got it nailed. “….however villainous one may think Putin is, he is absolutely right here: the massive influx of Muslim migrants in Europe has caused a “dissolution of traditional national values,” and indeed, “a society that cannot defend its children has no future.” That’s the United Kingdom, with its massive Muslim rape gang activity that authorities feared being called “racist” and “Islamophobic” if they stopped, and Austria with its release of the Muslim migrant who raped a 10-year-old boy — indeed, the illness has overtaken all of Europe’s political and media elites….”
Random Note #198,832 — Bill Leak And 18C
If Bill Leak feels remotely inclined to respond to the Human Rights Commission star chamber and inquisition (he’s been given 2 weeks to demonstrate how and why his laser accurate cartoon is not racist) he could do worse than copy and paste this response I drafted a few moments ago.
Random Note #178,942 — UK High Court and Brexit Decision
Here's what is perplexing and impossible to understand about the British High Court and its determination that to the trigger the Article 50 mechanism of the Lisbon Treaty so as to decouple from the EU, Prime Minister Theresa May must get the votes on the floor of the...
What Thinking Australians Are Thinking — November 5, 2016
What Thinking Australians Are Thinking Gillian Triggs has given Bill Leak a fortnight to produce evidence to show why his cartoon is not racist. I’d be more interested in hearing evidence from complainant Melissa Dinnison and Triggs showing why they think it is...
