| Shane and Dangerous Wind Power |
G'day
Possums,
A
severe, "Once-in-50-Year", (according to that Soviet Cell at
the Bureau of Meteorology) storm and two
small tornadoes swept through South Australia, felled about 23 high power
transmission lines and caused the back-up to Victoria's grid to fail, leaving
the whole state blacked out.
Our
faux Federal leader forever fearful of his right wing flapping, Truffles
Turdball on being informed of something,
played an insane line that the real cause of the blackout was that SA
had 40% of its grid powered by wind and solar!
Aided
and abetted by a compliant ABC in tabloid propaganda mode, the Famous Five: Truffles, Fiction's
Frydenberg, Barnyard Joyce, Exhibitionista Xenephon and Mal-Addled Roberts all
decided it was time to nobble this dangerous energy source once and for all. An
inquiry into the myth of human produced Carbon as a climate change agent, and
cheap reliable, environmentally friendly coal is just the ticket according to
Mal-Addled the One Neuron Notion Senator from The Deep North. That world
weather patterns are becoming increasingly violent and the fact that we've just
passed 400PPM of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere didn't phase this crusading
seeker of empirical evidence as he went on to call for," ....all to urgently exit all climate change policies
that are the direct cause of this huge mess in SA."
Now, isn't all that innovative? No? Well, agile with the facts at least!
“No man is exempt from
saying silly things; the mischief is to say them deliberately.” Michel de Montaigne.

Burying
his head further into the sand, Truffles has decided that the misleading
information from the anti-equality agit-prop leaflets disseminated in Sydney by senior members of his Liarbril Party will
not affect a "civil" debate prior to the now problematical plebiscite
on marriage equality. This group, "Children's Future" ( "...give me a child till he is seven... etc....") apparently has
links to the secretive right-wing Catlic club, Opus Dei, an organization
founded by Spanish prelate Jose' Maria Escriva in 1928 which flourished after the
Civil war under the fascist, General Franco.
It's
nice to know that "free-speech" is alive and well and that the
Inquisition isn't too far away!
"I agree that everyone has the right to
peace and harmony, but the gays and lesbians are now wanting to change my way
of thinking, who I am," said the Red Menace from Ipswich.
"I come from a time when there was no
discussion about gay marriage. That's my background, that's what I've grown up
with." "If you feel so strongly about it, I'm sure you can
move to that country and then you can have that marriage," she said."
The Red Menace would
probably feel more at home in Pyongyang.
Descending
into a theatrical quagmire of irrelevancy and proving Orwell as prophet, Kafka
as role model, Ayn Rand as scriptwriter and Dali as producer The Red Menace
re-iterates the putridly low level of intelligent discourse the ethically and
morally bereft "right" of Australia now proselytise to a dumbed-down nation.
Just like Mandy Il
Patrone, Vanstone (QandA 26-9-16) who extolled the virtues of
those waiting patiently for 12-15 years before the skerrick of humanity left in
this mongrel rabble kicks in and they deign to allow them entry as refugees. A
truly Panglossian sentiment more suited to the C15th than the C21st. To much applause
from the rooly noice audience, Il Patrone presented a reassuringly and patronizingly mythical
confection of how to control others futures without the guilt. I wonder if
Vivian Solon and Cornelia Rau were as accepting and appreciative of Il Patrone's
"humanity."

Finally, Australia’s education department paid Bjørn Lomborg’s climate skeptic
Copenhagen Consensus Centre $640,000 to help produce a report that claimed
limiting world temperature increases to 2C was a “poor” use of money.
Bjorn has left the
country. He richer.... us, none the wiser!
Faux Freedom Fighter and ex
Boy Wonder, Wyatt Roy has popped up in Iraq (illegally it seems) allegedly
seeking motivation and meaning from the Peshmerga but in reality garnering support for his
next tilt at pre-selection for the seat he lost at the last election. In a 10
minute advertisement on ABC's 7.30 hosted by what looked and sounded to me like
Leigh Sales in drag, Wyatt's "what-I-did-on-my-holiday" exuded all
the boyish charm of a young unemployed Liarbril taking himself too seriously as
a wonderful plastic humanitarian.
I think it would be a very good idea if we could crowd-fund his return and give ISIS another crack at him.

There was a deja-vu revelation of sorts in the American presidential
debate between a loopy far right-winger and a standard right-winger. The LFRW
tried to excite the audience with calls for Jobson Growth, Tax cuts for the
wealthy, Laura 'n Order, Innovation, and I think I heard "agility"
get a guernsey, too. Only to be told by the SRW that trickle-down economics
doesn't really work. Having heard all the former from Truffles as if it was something
original a few months ago I can only assume that this is what is meant by
Globalisation.
If it is, I have an ominous feeling as to the path we are being lead
down by the ruling rabble Mk2's application of the IPA's imported theoretical
mumbo-jumbo.
Hoor-roo, petals
