THE Department of Defence has scrapped recruitment advertisements criticised for their alluring content. In one of the advertisements for the Royal Australian Army Dental Corps, the modern woman digger is depicted as a buxom , full-lipped wonderwoman wearing a tight-fitting white nursing outfit. Unfortunately, many women in the military did not believe the “you” as [...]

Haneef’s gone
One of Haneef’s ‘fan’ club, a human rights advocate, ponders; You know, I hope Kev will say: “That really sucked what happened to Haneef, poor bastard.” It would be nice to read this. I replied; Don’t hold your breath. He is too close to savages that tried to mass murder Brits. We are better off [...]
Rudd forgets as well
Mr Rudd, campaigning in Tasmania, incorrectly named Labor’s candidate for the vital marginal seat of Bass as Jodie Kingston.The candidate’s name is Jodie Campbell. I expect the ABC news, Lateline, the 7:30 report, SBS, the Age, the SMH and all those left wing/anti-Howard blogs will be calling into question Rudd’s ability to lead; that he’s [...]
Amazing!
From the India Times BANGALORE: Indian doctor Mohammed Haneef has been at the receiving end of the Australian Federal Police (AFP) treatment for the last 21 days. However on Monday, he chose to bail out the AFP which was facing an embarrassing allegation of tampering his personal diary. Haneef told his cousin Imran Siddiqui and [...]
Drone makes its mark
INSURGENTS TERRORISTS firing rockets at a British base in southern Iraq were spotted and tracked by an Australian unmanned spyplane, then obliterated with a guided bomb from a US fighter jet. In a stunning demonstration of the capabilities of the new ScanEagle unmanned aerial vehicle, the Australian operators tracked the insurgents for half an hour [...]
AMA miss the point
FOREIGN doctors, which comprise up to 40% of the medical workforce, could avoid Australia because of the way Mohamed Haneef’s case has been handled, the Australian Medical Association says. Good. Clearly the only doctors who won’t come here because of the way we are treating Haneef will be those associated with terrorism. They will see [...]
Premature evacuation as Club X burns
Great headline, boring story about an adult shop and cinema in Melbourne burning down with patrons having to evacuate “prematurely”.
My site blocked in China
In my ongoing fight against communism I note my blog is blocked by the Chinese authorities but every day I get calls on Skype from Chinese citizens wanting to chat. Get that up ‘ya China. Test your website here Gradually we’ll wear them down. From Tramtown (where does he get the time to find all [...]
Haneef vs the Commonwealth
The beat-up of the week must go to Brisbane’s Courier Mail with an article on the front page claiming Moslems in Queensland are sleeping overnight in mosques as they are “gripped by fear and anger over what they claim is racist and unjust treatment of terror suspect Mahomed Haneef” Wow, amazing. Not the doubtful fact [...]
ALP Myths #1 Housing costs
Kevin Rudd is basing a fair amount of his campaign to get hold of the keys to the Treasury on very spurious data. The myth that has been taking my interest of late is his claim that the Howard Government are responsible for the high cost of housing. Some time back I was driving and [...]
