"Dollar Sweetie" - as useful as an ashtray on a motorcycle.

A sad joke of Australian politics.

The tepid sell-out actions (and lack of actions) by the US Democrat Party directly led to the election of Trump.

Will Australia similarly turn to Right Wing populism in the face of an impotent, neoliberal ALP?

Porleen will be the winner, Australia the loser.

The true and only purpose of the Liberal Party is simply to keep a Left Wing ALP from government.

Which they have achieved.

Hence they, and this muppet in particular, are irrelevant.

Just how many hats did he leave behind?

I long for the days when he enjoys his rightful place in our media.

Non-existant.

Gawd the Liberals have destroyed the ABC

Her output too frequently is facile puffery.

I appreciate the loyalty that hacks show each other and recognise that it is tough to be criticised in public.

But it is tougher to have to sit through unrelenting lightweight pap.

I never warmed to these views.

He was a creature of the US's worst instincts in many ways.

Here are the key things he said:

1. He believed unions acted like cartels
2. He said unions blocked technological progress
3. He disliked mandatory union session rules
4. He believed unions protected incompetence
5. He mocked union bureaucracy

Chat GTP (Vomit) says this:

Frank Zappa had a long, very critical history with unions—especially the American Federation of Musicians (AFM). His comments were mostly about how he believed unions hurt creativity, blocked innovation, and protected mediocrity.

Frank was highly individualistic in his ideas and creativity.

Staunchly anti-union, anti-drugs, he championed the real foundation of the US (and wider world) - individual rights.

He was brave, prescient and forthright.

90 mins work, expensive bowl and a lot of ingredients.

But I didn't fall and die. So I have that going for me.

(Both hips titanium and osteoporosis that would kill a brown dog.)

I just smashed onto the floor a pyrex dish full of an egg and potato salad I had just made for 12 people for lunch tomorrow.

Yes I'm a fuck-up as well.

(I'm disabled and I tripped and almost fell, the bowl went flying.)

The Know-nothings of the LNP and Cheap Agistment tribes have a lot of destruction in the Australian Alps to be very, very ashamed of.

To "love" an introduced species directly responsible for the deaths of countless native wildlife and vegetation is peak stupidity.

Liberal Values.

As a former RARA Australian I am endlessly embarrassed that my peers could vote for a corrupt, contemptible lush without a moral compass or any real interest in anything other than making himself and mining companies rich.
