Liberals-all about gay rights?
19 March 2007A common question I am asked is “How can you support the (Federal) Libs when John Howard hates you”, referring to Johnny’s firm anti-gay-marriage stance.
This is a question / statement that never ceases to irk me. It reeks of the last Presidental election in the United States, where gay marriage was seen as the […]
Oh no not again!
5 March 2007I can’t believe I used to have some form of respect for Morris Iemma. I didn’t envy the job he was tasked with when he came to power, leading a government full of buffoons, who suffered no favours from the infamous Bob Carr. He was a decent man I believed, and might actually have a […]
Folly of the State Liberals
27 February 2007I got a call the other day to do a phone survey… I’m usually fairly nice with answering telemarketers, and surprisingly always polite. Maybe that’s why they keep calling back? Hrrrm.
Anyway, this one happened to be about the upcoming State Elections, and my views on how I have voted in the past and how I […]
The state of things
7 February 2006I’m scared, people.
This latest story in the papers about embassies burning and people being killed because a cartoonist drew a picture of the prophet Mohammed, is very indicative of the way the world is at the moment.
People from all sides are becoming increasingly violent, and being blinded by their religious beliefs.
Evil is creeping back […]
A minute\’s silence for the death of Journalism…
29 November 2005I’m really really starting to get irritated by this pathetic hype about the hanging of Nguyen Tuong Van
I know I got a whooole bunch of nasty little swipes last time I mentioned this drama, so I will undoubedly get them again.
What I don’t understand is what right we have to meddle in the affairs of […]

12 October 2004Welcome back Johnny!!!!!
I’m quite pleased with the election result. A little concerned if Family First gets a seat in the Senate, particular the all-important 39th seat, but hey, it could be worse. It could be Fred Nile.
I think Latham put up a good fight, but at this point in time Australians simply do not […]

19 September 2004�Well, it looks like Johnny has, and always has had, the upper hand over Latham.
The Sydney Morning Herald poll, released today, show that he has always been ahead as preferred PM.
What I find amazing is how well the media hid this… always promoting Labor and trying to create a stir, whilst the Liberals were clearly […]

21 May 2004And so ends another day!
Just finished work.. big function tonight. Worked at the Hordern Pavillion, for good ol’ Johnny H and his boys. Wasn’t too bad… I had a few MP’s on my table, which was right next to the PM’s table. Lots of big names though. A few quirky things:
Why oh why did […]
What does it mean to be gay and Liberal ?
16 March 2004I sit here tonight, completely bored of uni work. For some reason or another, I feel it is time to improve my debating skills and essay techniques. Being an engineering student, I haven’t written a decent piece of writing for over 3 years. So I decided tonight, I would get political. Usually, I’m not politically […]
