Our present leaders are paying the price for the dishonesty of Bush and Blair

Sonic waves from Queen's We Will Rock You are splitting the very air apart when I find the new senator at his country home somewhere to the north-west of Narrabri.

An empire is not a monolith. Humans are not robots.

The CIA has begun delivering weapons to rebels in Syria, ending months of delay in lethal aid that had been promised by the Obama administration, according to U.S. officials and Syrian figures.

If President Obama is serious about ridding the world, and not just Syria, of chemical weapons, he and America’s closest allies in the Middle East should lead the way.

The temptation for hard-pressed business people to blame their troubles on a Labor government has been irresistible.

She (Ms BISHOP)  described Labor as ''arrogant'' for appointing Mr Bracks without consulting the Coalition.

1. ABBOTT HAS NO MANDATE

The spacial human condition lends itself to many weird and idiotic primitive interpretations... 

At the risk of sounding disrespectful, yesterday’s front page photograph of Tony Abbott, in rosebud’s Daily Terror, gave me the impression that the lycra-clad, barefoot, prime ministerial budgie-smuggler in-waiting was in desperate need of a suppository!!

So, Tony Abbott will become Australia's 28th prime minister because he never really buggered it up like many thought he would; whilst Labor buggered it up at almost every step.

In other words, we now have a Prime Minister & government elected by default or, as others might put it, “the lesser of two evils”.
