2020 but Rudd can’t see


Yes, folks, yet another grand meaningless gesture by the king of spin (sorry, Warnie).

THE Federal Government has for the first time committed to ending homelessness in Australia, agreeing to a “significant” reduction in homeless numbers within the next five years, an end to rough sleeping and an overall goal of halving homelessness by 2020.

But how are you going to do it, Kevin? What? Monday’s Mumbai news cycle wasn’t interesting enough for you?

Still, if only Rudd could just stick to gesticulating.

Rudd. STOP! Just chill like the rest of the planet is doing.

Same same but different


John Miller, at the Corner, sees the parallels and the perpendicular.

UPDATE

Obama has certainly brought change more of the same to Washington.

When President-elect Barack Obama introduces his national security team on Monday, it will include two veteran cold warriors and a political rival whose records are all more hawkish than that of the new president who will face them in the White House Situation Room.

Sweeping shift of priorities (next paragraph in link – be bothered to read it), but. Yep. OK. Whatever.

NEWSBREAK! Old man changes outlook!!! Oooooookay.

The irony is, of course, is that this is actually a good thing and Team Obama is starting to seem OK.

Change in Washington?


Obama said he was going to bring change to Washington. So talk me through this one Obi. How does having Clinton as Secretary of State, Biden as VP and Gates as Defense Secretary amount to ‘change’?

Was it those pesky CIA daily briefings?

Hamas launches 2nd TV channel


Well, Farfur may be gone, lost to the imperial Zionist infidel, but that’s not stopping Hamas from continuing to spread their message of hate.

UPDATE

Remember Farfur? He was the Disney-esque Hamas terrorist in a mouse costume who, whilst conversing with a preteen girl, inspired Palestinian children to kill.

Well done, CNN /sarc


So after years of tongue pashing Obama’s arse, CNN now decides to come out of the closet to say, hey, maybe we should proceed with caution with this guy.

A case in point as to why I can’t stand them.

Chummy comrades


Chavez and Putin, er sorry, Medvedev are being pesky little buggers again. In what appears to be a bit of an on-going hissy fit at Bush for helping the Georgians out, they’ll be teaming up for military exercises in about, er, now.

This goes along with a new energy deal between the former communist country and the country working so hard to become communist. Yep, Chavez is having another crack at becoming prez for life.

Darwin award nomination


WHILE golf clubs and freezer bags have failed, cane toads could face their ultimate demise in Australia due to arthritis.

Hmm, I still prefer the old-fashioned way.

Lataan blames Blair


Over 500 people have been tortured, killed and/or injured, yet Damian Lataan sees fault in Tim Blair and Andrew Bolt.

In cold blood


”It was apparent that most of the dead were tortured.”

In cold blood? Or are these islamofascists passionate about their work?
