Michael Hardner Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 Australia In Crisis: Is there anything to discuss here. Simply posting a link to a video doesn't spur discussion. Quote Looks like someone has a new patronizing catch phrase ! Michael Hardner
Michael Hardner Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 Looked at the video... it seems that because somebody was convicted of smuggling pot, the entire Australian government should be destroyed. Maybe an overreaction at play here. Quote Looks like someone has a new patronizing catch phrase ! Michael Hardner

Guest American Woman Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 Is there anything to discuss here. Simply posting a link to a video doesn't spur discussion. The text accompanying the video says: MAKE THIS VIDEO VIRAL! I would imagine that's the purpose of posting it here. See Simbainoz's other posts - that seems to be his agenda, as he's posted the same content on other forums. Quote
TheNewTeddy Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 I never thought I'd see an Original Poster be off topic... lol But Australia is in crisis, at least, the Labor party is, and that's how they spell it down there despite spelling Labour normally for everything else. A few years ago Gillard overthrew Rudd to take over, but now Rudd wants to re-overthrow her back. Quote Feel free to contact me outside the forums.

fellowtraveller Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 Some witless Aussie doper got caught smugglig weed into Bali and is now wasting her time trying to get out by embarassing the Indonesian government. She presented the dumbest defence ever when on trial and is now going at it in such a way she will likely have to serve the whole sentence. Some people never learn.

Guest Simbainoz Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Eamonn Duff's pathetic book, "Sins of the Father", which has been heavily promoted by the Australian media since its release, is set to go down in a screaming heap. This interview with David McHugh, one of the main characters in Duff's 'based on lies' book, has just been posted on The Expendable Project website. His interview is self explanatory, but in a nutshell, he says that the book is all BS. Duff's book will end up in the rubbish bin of life, and Duff, as well as Allen & Unwin, will likely end up in a defamation court. As well as listening to the McHugh interview, I recommend that you all check out this entire section as it contains further very revealing interviews, with Col Chapman, a private investigator for the television networks, and Jade, an ethical witness who chose not to lie, as well as some very interesting written information. This material provides an insight into the media's hostile agenda against Schapelle Corby and her family. It is this hostile agenda that has influenced so many people to mistakenly believe that Schapelle is guilty, and that her whole family are involved in the drug trade, which is plainly NOT CORRECT.

You know, the drugs she brought with her?The Aussie media was emabarassingly biased and occasionally racist in their support for Corby. edited fr clarity Edited February 21, 2012 by fellowtraveller Quote The government should do something.
ChillingTruth Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Of course, there was also the trifling matter of the evidence that also convinced the court. Do you mean these systemic abuses of her human rights at the show trial? http://www.expendable.tv/2011/10/bali-trial.html Please read it, before you air off about "trifling matter of the evidence", please, because your total ignorance is somewhat offensive. They denied her every semblance of evidence to defend herself, and even confronted her with a 'judge' who had never acquitted in 500 cases. The treatment of this woman constitutes an affront to humanity, yet incredibly, those too idle to check it properly, try to dismiss it. Quote
-TSS- Posted February 27, 2012 Report Posted February 27, 2012 Australian PM Julian Gillard won a leadership-vote where she was challenged by the former PM Kevin Rudd. She got over 2/3 of the votes in the leadership-election. Quote
