Gillard. Gone. Rudd- he's Ba-aaak.



Despite the good news and the even worse news, hoots of laughter rang in all the bars and rooms. The nasty little Feminist Gillard, Ju-LIAR to her friends, has been chucked out of the farce that is the Labour Party.

Good news that Australia is rid of the worst Prime Minister in its history. She can go back to her knitting but this time at her own assassination.



The bad news is that the narcissist Rudd, the bogan mandarin speaker that she had assassinated some years ago, is back to lead the rabble into certain defeat in the Election in September.




The Messiah? Well he is certainly back from the dead. Here he is showing just what chance Truth has in our society.

Or will the Federal Election be earlier?

Who knows. It could be at any time. The only certainty is that whatever comes out of the mouths of Labour leaders in Oz is a lie.

Ju-Liar promised and promised and assured us of this and that, and not ONE of her pronouncements turned out to be the Truth.

She was pathologically unable to tell the truth about anything.

I wonder if she will keep her hairdresser.



Kevin Rudd, whom everyone and his dog (there are a LOT of dogs in the Party) claimed was a useless prick and they would not piss on him if he was on fire, promised that he would never come back to lead the Party.

Yeah, sure.

LIAR.

What a state Oz politics is in.

These awful people, completely bereft of personal, even political Integrity, play like nasty kids in a schoolyard. They betray the Australian voting public and do not care one jot. Just their childish, selfish games concern them.



But, just as Rudd had now had his revenge, he can expect revenge from the public. The Liberals (Conservatives) have a ton of ammunition.

The Labour Party will be wiped out.

Immediate Press commentary said: At:

It's understood Cabinet Ministers Wayne Swan, Stephen Conroy, Craig Emerson, Joe Ludwig have quit the frontbench.
The ballot result was confirmed by caucus returning officer Chris Hayes. 
Anthony Albanese has been elected by the caucus as deputy Labor leader over contender Simon Crean, 61 to 38, replacing Gillard supporter Wayne Swan. 
Finance Minister Penny Wong has been elected Labor senate leader in place of Senator Conroy. Jacinta Collins has won the deputy leader of the senate position. 
Ms Gillard left the caucus meeting flanked by Mr Swan and Nicola Roxon. 
Climate Change Minister Greg Combet has resigned from the frontbench. 
''I have been on the public record calling for Labor’s leadership issue to be resolved once and for all before Parliament rises, so we can unite in the lead up to this year’s federal election campaign,’’ Mr Combet said in a statement. 
Outgoing treasurer and deputy prime minister Wayne Swan says he will recontest his Queensland seat of Lilley in the coming election. 
Former Education Minister Peter Garrett, who holds the NSW seat of Kingsford Smith, has revealed he will not recontest the upcoming election. 
He becomes the second former cabinet minister to quit parliament after Mr Rudd was resurrected as Labor leader. 
Greens leader Christine Milne said that people were''shaking their head'' about what had become of the Labor party and expressed disappointment that Australia’s first female Prime Minister had been deposed in such a manner. 
 The result now means Ms Gillard will quit the parliament and retire from politics after the election.
ADDENDUM.

A small note: Kevin Rudd is a narcissist, but not the only one in Oz politics. 

Q. How do you know someone is a poisonous narcissist?

A. You can see the bodies all around him, or in this case, her.


Yep. The Governor General. Still standing. Feminism rules.

Now,  drinks all around. We need some cheer and courage.



Feet are useful. Use them.



A retired podiatrist was in the P&B giving his opinions and waiting for people to stick pins in them. Clearly he had no fear of acupuncture. Men with such 'hands-on' skills, even hands on feet ones, often have a lot of spare thinking capacity. And use it. Women shop for shoes.

He was talking politics of course. Well, he was American, innit?

I will just give a few snippets as I have many people to serve tonight. The gist of it was this:

 
“But they defended their policies, and the country did not rebel; it accepted the Elected Government's argument. Selfish individuals may be unhappy, the Government said, but what we have established in Germany is the ideal system, socialism.” "To be a socialist,” says Goebbels, “is to submit the I to the thou; socialism is sacrificing the individual to the whole.”

So many seem not to know that Nazis were SOCIALISTS.

When a serious crisis occurs, citizens cry out for someone to do something about it at any cost. Of course, that “someone” is the government. In Germany of the 1930s the crisis was runaway inflation. However, any crisis will do. For America the crisis could be another terrorist attack using nuclear, chemical or biological weapons; a depression; a stock market crash; a food shortage; a torrent of bankruptcies and bank failures; a bursting of the housing bubble, etc. 
 In most cases, the crisis is government-generated, while the government’s solution is to continue to do the very same thing that caused the crisis in the first place. In some cases the government surreptitiously causes a crisis in order to motivate the citizens to succumb to more government control. This gives those on top of the power pyramid even greater power. That’s why the State loves war in spite of statements to the contrary."

 

I believe that the common man on the street in Germany during the Nazi regime thought that he was supporting a good cause when he supported Hitler and his thugs. Like us, the German people and the Nazis loved their children, went to church, played bridge, went to the opera and concerts, played tennis and engaged themselves in the same everyday activities as we do.

“The road to hell is paved with good intentions.”

Fascism can come from the right or the left. Doing what feels good and doing what is right and works are not necessarily the same thing. To determine what works, one must analyze cause and effect. The reasoning of the “feel good” proponents goes something like this: “wouldn’t it be nice if the poor were more prosperous?” (We all would like to see that the poor were more prosperous.) Solution—“let’s give them some of my money and your money and everybody else’s money.” Problem solved.  
Fascist doctrine does not bother to look at the morality of such acts, the unintended and long-term negative consequences of such a policy, the side effects of the policy and never bothers to seek out the cause of the very prosperity that they wish to establish. The problem is magnified by the fact that when the unintended consequences do become a reality, fascist ideology is never blamed. Other people, groups and greed are blamed.

Another Good Mother



All mothers are good. Aren't they? They love children, especially their own. Don't they? Many are lining up awaiting seats in a legislative chamber somewhere over on the Un-Savoury great State of Texas to cheer on a mother.


Texas, as you well know, is a conservative state. George W Bush was governor there before he became president, (former presidential candidate, Republican Rick Perry is currently governor). So it should come as no surprise that they're trying to pass an anti-abortion bill known as SB5 that would ban abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy and shut down many abortion clinics in the state of Texas. Indeed, the number of abortion clinics could drop from 47 down to 5.


Democratic senator Wendy Davis is doing everything she can to stop the bill from passing by filibusting for 13 hours. That is to say, she's talking for 13 hours straight so that the bill can not be passed.

For part of the time she will hold her breath
until she turns blue - but not fall over -
and thqweam and thqweam until
everyone agrees with her.
And then talk some more.

The rules stipulate that she remain standing, not lean on her desk or take any breaks — even for meals or to use the bathroom. Colleagues removed her chair so she wouldn't sit down by mistake. Davis is also wearing sneakers, (they're pink) to try to stay comfortable. If this seems ridiculous to you, consider the fact that it's a favoured tactic to stop bills passing in the US,

Davis has garnered the attention and support of women around the world for her efforts, with the hashtag #SB5 exploding on twitter. In her opening remarks, Davis, who was chosen to lead the charge because she had a baby as a teenager before going on to graduate from Harvard law school, said she was "rising on the floor today to humbly give voice to thousands of Texans" and called Republican efforts to pass the bill a "raw abuse of power." 

Thousands of Texans, eh.

Not the thousands who have had their mouths forever silenced by an abortionist though. Just for the evil in so many women's hearts.

So many women. Someone has to speak up for them. Otherwise they would not be heard, would they?

And 'humbly'. This woman would not know humble if it bit her arse.
 

According to The Star Tribune,
In the hallway outside the Senate chamber, hundreds of women stood in line, waiting for people in the gallery to give up their seats. Women's rights supporters wore orange t-shirts to show their support for Davis, and Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst had to remind those in the gallery that interrupting the proceedings could results in 48 hours in jail.

When a male protester stood in the Senate gallery and shouted, "abortion is genocide," Davis continued talking uninterrupted as the man was removed by security.


Pretty well says it all, doesn't it.

ONE man speaks for the babies and he is 'removed' by the thugs of the State.

 

Drawing Lines in Shifting Sands



We get all sorts in here. Some are quite 'colourful'. The society beyond the summer fields and woodlands surrounding the Tavern 'tolerates' to a fault, but only the things that 'turns them on'. Many out there say, "If it feels good, it must be good". They don't like others pointing out that there is an abyss just ahead.

Feelings change. Dark clouds sweep over and block the view. Feelings have a place but they often obscure thinking. And Lives need thinking about. Lives need to be directed by clear vision, properly considered.

Unfortunately it is not only society that works against sound thinking and living. We have immaturity to consider. Everyone was young and everyone made mistakes. Almost everyone continues to. But occasionally some change their path and get back up to the sunny uplands.

A young woman was in the Spirit bar last night. and a young man too. Both had their stories to tell. Bill M had brought them along. Bill said:

If I or others like me point out the dangers of porn, we are usually dismissed as crank and killjoys, and told to butt out. For decades now I have been trying to get the message out that our porn-soaked culture is killing our kids, our families and our nations.

Yet for all my efforts I have been abused, ridiculed, mocked and called every name under the sun. But speaking truth is always important so I will keep on doing it, despite all the abuse and hatred. However, the anti-porn case is much harder to dismiss when those who have been heavily involved in it come out and say the same thing.

You can dismiss me all you like, but when former porn stars and porn magazine editors leave the industry and admit that they were dead wrong, then we all had better sit up and take notice.

The presence of a porn star startled some regulars. But a dram of the amber 'water of life' soon settled them. She was known as Jenna Presley   In 2010, Maxim Magazine named Jenna Presley one of the top female porn stars in the world and now she has given it all up.

Smiles and cries of 'Welcome to the Tavern, m'dear', went up. Some chaps sat rather close !!

Now, don't get me wrong here. Many of my regulars like a bit of titillation and glamour. The world has a lot to offer and the attractive features of human beings are often enhanced just for sheer enjoyment. Song and dance emphasise frivolity and eroticism as well as art and high culture. Not all display is bad. It depends on where it goes.

You might raise an eyebrow at her real 'christian' name. Brittni. Who would name a child that? The modern provenance of such faux-names is enough to steer feet onto dangerous paths just by itself. Which parent gets to determine names these days? It will become clearer soon.

Brittni, who used the professional name Jenna Presley, started dancing to earn extra money as a freshman at Santa Barbara City College in 2005. Two men approached her after one of her performances and asked if she would like to make ‘romance movies.’ ‘You mean porn?’ she joked. They nodded affirmatively, but it was no joke.


"I didn’t know what to expect," she admits now. "At 18, I was only a baby. I was looking for love in all the wrong places."
How many times have we heard that? And how many times have we been told that 'girls mature faster than boys'? Clearly she did know what to expect and went right ahead anyway.
“Brittni was insecure as a result of her upbringing" continued Bill." in a home with a ‘verbally abusive’ mother and passive father. For the first time in her life, she began to receive positive affirmation, and it felt good. She travelled to L.A. and shot her first pornographic scene.
“Producers worked her relentlessly in the early phase of her career because of her youthful, fresh appearance.
‘I already looked like I was 12,’ Brittni recalls 
 Bill is a kind fellow. He will search for ways of seeing the 'good side' of people. It is a sound approach. But.... even that can dim the eye.
 They dressed her in ‘little girl’ clothing and pigtails, which made her uncomfortable. The inescapable conclusion is that filmmakers wanted to appeal to the depraved fantasies of men with paedophile tendencies. ‘It’s disgusting how they can portray you as a little girl,’ she says today. ‘It’s complete perversion.’

Someone interjected. "Er...Bill. Did anyone force her?  She put the clothes on, herself, Shirley? What's this 'They' bizzo?"

He didn't answer but continued his account.

“During this period, she worked as much as 60 days without a day off, shooting two and sometimes three sex scenes a day. ‘I didn’t know how to say no,’ she notes. ‘I didn’t know how to stand up for myself. Before this, my mother made every decision for me.’

“Initially, she made $900 for each sex scene she filmed, but the money quickly disappeared. As hopelessness and emptiness overwhelmed her, she turned to drugs to numb the pain.

 ‘I started with cocaine. Then it became a downhill spiral to heroin. I had many lonely nights when I cut on my wrists. I tried to kill myself. I spent all my paycheck on drugs.’
 

After three years in the adult film industry, she was fed up. She placed a 911 call to her grandmother. ‘I need you grandma,’ she said. ‘I’m done with this. Come and get me’.”


 “During her stay with her grandparents, they took her to the Rock Church in San Diego. Brittni was ‘bawling’ through most of the sermon.  The church gave her a Bible and after she got home, she devoured Genesis. ‘I always wondered how we became human. Finally I had the answer and I was so excited. I couldn’t put it down’.
 
“In November 2012, Brittni filmed her last sex scene. ‘It was seven long years,’ she laments. ‘I hated what I was doing, but I wondered what I would do next.’ After Brittni left adult films, she found work with a limousine company and makes a decent income. ‘I look forward to waking up every morning,’ she says. ‘There is life after porn; there is life after drugs and prostitution.’


Well, there was hardly a dry eye. But that was quickly replaced with a lot of criticism, not only the 'Industry', perverts who prey on young women, the easy misuse of 'Adult' when they mean adolescent, and the ease in which such girls slide into a terrible life, but of her too.

A gentleman rose and went to the piano to lighten the mood. However before he could sit down a lady interrupted to give a rendition of another chap.


Clearly Mrs Brittni's mum get that message and Brittni went on the bed instead, with her well-developed bust for all to see - and far more besides -  and onto her back and knees.

Not a better choice.!

I am glad for Brittni that she has managed to escape but she has a lot of repair work to do and that is going to need a lot of introspection. Her narcissism is evident. Or is it now a 'was'? I hope so. Her deliberate 'fall' cannot be explained away or 'blamed' on men alone nor on the perverts who seduced her into the business. They barely had to lift a finger. She Jumped at the chance.

And why? For love? That's what she said. All mommy's fault? But what of the easy money? Is that not the reason that industry has young women queuing up?

And what of the constant FEMINIST message, even sold by Governments, that 'Its a woman's Choice", and 'Its HER body: she can do whatever she wants with it"?

Our society is driven today by Women, demanding -and being paid from the coerced taxpayers' wallets - that women must never be criticised.

The Princess of Lies.


Brittni has left the bed.  She has left the studio lights which lit her body writhing on the bed doing what SHE CHOSE to do. And getting paid $2700 a day. $13500 per week for a few hours sex each day.  Just think of that 60 days in a row, 2-3 times a day sex at $900 a go. That must have raked in more moolah than a demon in hell rakes in coal.

Not many men in factories earn that. Men erecting poles for electricity don't earn that.

I dare say that getting older had something to do with it. Not becoming more mature though. Perhaps that will follow.

But talking of men, let's look at one of those 'in the business': those who make porn are also seeing the light. Consider the story of Martin Daubney, editor of the “lad’s mag” Loaded.

He says,

“The average Loaded reader — largely white, working class, 20-something blokes — had a simple palate, so we gave them what they wanted. To me, it was harmless fun, dictated by market forces. What’s more, I was paid more money than I’d ever earned in my life to do it. I’d always dreamed of editing Loaded and vowed to do whatever it took to stay there. 

“I never stopped to consider issues like the crass sexualisation of women. Moral naysayers were party poopers, and if they attacked me, I’d attack them back — harder. We were under massive pressure to sell magazines to keep our shareholders happy. We knew sex sold, so our thinking was: why not make Loaded a frenzied, Harrods-sale of nudity?”

But in 2009 he says he “finally grew up” when became a father:

 I was confronted by the painful thought that maybe Loaded was part of the problem. 
 “It had such an effect on me and changed my views so forcibly that within a year I’d quit a dream job that, for me, had become a moral nightmare. When I look back now, I see we were severely pushing the envelope of what was considered decent. 
“We were normalising soft porn, and in so doing we must have made it more acceptable for young men to dive into the murky waters of harder stuff on the internet. And, for that, I have a haunting sense of regret. I edited Loaded for eight years — the title’s longest-serving editor — and its titillating mix of topless girls and decidedly non-PC humour.... 
“My life had become a charade, switching between diametrically-opposed extremes — nipples by day and nappies by night. I started seeing the women in my magazine not as sexual objects, but as somebody’s daughter. Some of Loaded’s models had children themselves, and I’d think ‘what’s your kid going to think of you when they’re old enough to understand Mummy used to get her boobs out for a living?’ 
“To think that the girls who posed for our magazine had once had their nappies changed, had once been taught to take their first steps and had once been full of childlike hope . . . it was almost heartbreaking.

Was it an ‘enabler’ to young teenage boys who’d consume harder porn later, in the same way dabbling with cannabis might lead to stronger addictions to cocaine or heroin?...


Short answer: Yes.

Two people with a lot to answer for. Two people willing to stand up on their long road and say. "Yes, I did not do Right. I am Sorry"

It is a good start.

A Looooong way to go though.

Deserving of something tasty from the cellar, methinks.






“Your child belongs to us already ."



Frightening words, once heard from the mouth of a monster. Some might point out it was a Male monster and not even a British one. But like Beelzebub of old, the devil has had a sex-change and she has her own set of monsters. Heck, its all the rage. Modern.

The Girl Guides of Britain have a new oath and God has been dropped. The new Kommisar, whoops, Commissioner has decreed.

You’ll have to ask those who appointed Julia Bentley as the organisation’s chief executive. Ms Bentley is a zealous sexual liberationist, condom outreach worker, Blairite commissar and abortion apologist, so what did they expect?

Did I mention Feminist?

Just the sort of person we would seek out and find for our girls and young women. An acolyte of the Princess of Lies.


Remember when every town and street has nice girls? Girls who joined the Guides and learned useful things? Pleasant girls.

That changed. And the Guides have caught up with the times.

If this country still had any spirit, tens of thousands of families would this weekend be resigning from the Girl Guides  (or ‘Girlguiding’ as it is now modishly known) and setting up a pro-British, pro-Christian breakaway.


An important youth movement, in which young minds are formed, has been taken over by radical revolutionaries, who plan to cut references to nation and God from the Guide ‘promise’ – a pledge they themselves describe as the organisation’s ‘beating heart’.


They know what they are doing. The same people long ago captured the schools and universities, which are now factories of Left-wing conformism. Now they want the youth movements as well.
But there will be no revolt. This is partly because the New Left are masters of a technique known as ‘salami-slicing’, by which they slowly change the country into somewhere else. 

Many young girls look the same as ever when they dress reasonably, but when is that?  The Uniform has gone. Skirts are an optional extra. Behaviour is coarser.


Each individual action is so thin a slice that only a few people will mind, and most will jeer at them for caring. ‘Moral panic!’ they will squawk.  


But once enough of these slices have been taken, it is clear that a deep and lasting change has happened. By then it will be too late.  
People will quickly forget that Girl Guides were ever Christian or patriotic. And the pledge to honour the Queen – which has been kept for now – will go later.

 
 
Frankly the girls would be far better off as apprentice Bar-maids here in the Tavern. An enterprising one or two might even teach an old Knight some blogging techniques and correct his mistakes.

A Voice from the Cellar.


We store all sorts of Good Things in our cellar and even have a secret door leading to an Inner Sanctum down there. Where the Grail goes. And a phone.

Well, we do need to find out if particular bottles are there, like the 'green stuff' that someone asked for the other day (in the comments). A quick call down there gets a quick result. Sometimes someone down there calls up to us too.

The phone from the cellar rang in the P&B last night.

It was during a heated discussion on Religion. Yes, we allow all sorts of subject matter in our bars, just so long as people are not pissed so much as to be impolite.

Someone was talking about how in the 'old days' only the Priests in the Temple knew how to read and write and how they used arcane language and ideas solely to bamboozle people and take their money. Hence the strange religious idea we have today. 

In our modern, up-to-the-minute world we are not using  hieroglyphics anymore.  Are we? And we have progressed to clear mass communication with electronics and satellites and computers et al to get the message across without confusing people. Everyone can know the ins and outs.  We believe in a vastly more simple and straightforward way. We have 'Maths'.

Most educated people today do not believe in the supernatural anymore. You just cannot pull the wool over people's eyes with quite silly ideas relying on a ridiculous suspension of common sense.

The deep voice on the end of the phone interrupted. "Oh yeah?", it said.

"If its common sense and instant clarity you want  instead of more hieroglyphics and chanting of runes, my life already, have I ever got some doozies for you !"


The Voice continued:

"So you cannot live with the idea that My 'other' self, the Ghost, passed over the waters? But photons, you understand. Hah ! Or that I Am Who Am? Or that I always was, always IS, and always will be?  You don't get that. But light-speed restrictions and the entire Universe thingo just 'happened', sort of 'by chance'. And the Grace I have by the barrel, just for you 'orrible, undeserving mob is 'magic thinking'? My Grace has no 'real' way of getting from Me to you?  You have a problem with that. But you are happy, it seems, to listen to the new priesthood and their runes.

"I suggest, with no undue humility on my part but a LOT due of yours, that you drink what the Angel brings. It is the Good Stuff. Oh, and about that 27km circular underground Temple in Geneva. Remember what I said about 'False Gods' "
 
There were some very stiff drinks ordered in the P&B after that. The guys and gals in the Spirits bar could be heard laughing.

Killing Babies



A dark evening in the Spirit bar last night. Many glum faces when a discussion started up about abortion. It is not a subject that most people like to talk about. It's personal, isn't it? A 'Secret Women's Bizzo'. But the men in the bar had a few things to say despite the efforts of 'social leaders' to prevent any masculine input.


But on the wall in the Spirit Bar I have a sign that states the Tavern Policy on life. It reads.

Human existence contains only two defining instants,
 which are conception and death.
 And this is not a matter simply of “religion” but of biology.
All other milestones, no matter how dramatically recognized in society,
 amount to transitional phases in the human life cycle.
So despite all of the grandiose but empty oratory,
 any individual who does not advocate the defence of all innocent human life
 between those two landmarks
 is an individual who holds no regard for the sanctity of human life on the whole.
 
 But many people still will not accept that simple assertion. They argue that 'life' in the womb is somehow not human.  It is a 'foetus' or a 'blob of cells'. Unless of course someone accidentally kills it by running over a pregnant women with a car. Then, suddenly, it is manslaughter of mother and baby. Yes, it is suddenly transformed into a baby.
 
Men are virtually prohibited from discussing it. The Oz PM and her feminist cronies are forever telling us that 'men should not tell a woman what she can do with her own body', as if any man does. She claimed the other day that 'men in blue ties' will dictate abortion laws against women's wishes. No thought did she give to men speaking not against women but FOR babies.
Heck, that used to be a major speaking subject of women - defence of babies. Now it is women who kill babies with virtually no objection, indeed, they have political and social encouragement.
In Tasmania the Left/Socialist/Feminist/Green coalition of the morally bereft have been worrying over a new 'Bill' to extend abortion and even stop people talking about it. It was introduced by a woman. Not a man. 
 
Michelle O'Byrne.
 
Take a good look. She does not front the cameras all that often and no wonder. There are more photogenic evil sisters for that. Like our schoolyard slimey-girl Premier  Lara (Lala) Giddings. She just loves the cameras.
 
 
Or Michelle's brother who has risen faster than a rat up a toilet pipe on the socialist-feminist coat-tails, enjoying the patronage and agreeing with every evil pronouncement with his lap-rat tail wagging.
 
The Government lost their darling girl a while back. The lovely Paula. She was 'adored' by everyone, especially her official Limousine driver, whom she seduced and shagged on the back seat time and time again, until the poor chap eventually cried 'Sexual Harassment'. He was awarded over $100,000 wrested from the taxpayers' pockets. Such a nice girl, in charge of educating our children, just like Michelle.
 
 
Such a pretty woman. She had to resign and rather than go quietly with the deserved shame and an intent to mend her ways, instead she decided to end her days. She did that in the usual female way of making a ham-fisted job of it and ended up in hospital. The Sheeple from the media went overboard in sympathy for the poor dear.
 
A home grown Tasmanian Victim Heroine.
 
What a fine mother she would make ! Not.
The Labour-Feminist-Green society wreckers care not a jot for babies. They prefer to kill them before they have a chance even to breathe.
 
EVIL.
 
But several men did speak out last night. Against the evil. Not against women.  One said:
 
"Such women and their feminist politicians have a lot to answer for and to a lot of dead babies whose potential has been snuffed out.
The situation is a disaster in Australia as in other western countries. Australia aborts 80,000 immanent Australian children every year. This is a horror. It is uncivilised, cruel, self defeating as a Nation."

Heads nodded. 
"These Australian babies have done no wrong, committed no crime, offended no-one. Yet they are sentenced to death and killed in the most horrible manner."


Another chap chimed in: 
 "Their Right to Life is enshrined in the 1947 Human Rights Declaration of the United Nations, to which Australia is a signatory.  Did you know that?


The Unborn have especial mention in the Preamble to the Declaration because they are so vulnerable and need politicians to speak up on their behalf. Their right is totally disregarded by this Bill. Indeed, rejected.

 
An unborn child injured or killed in a motor vehicle accident has their personhood  recognised and acknowledged, and manslaughter charges brought against the person who caused the accident if they were culpably negligent.

 
Yet this Bill disregards the personhood of the Unborn. It advocates killing them."


We get passionate people here of an evening. The lunchtime crowd are usually more relaxed.
Another chap spoke up. He had been a 'Professional' who had dealt with some of the carnage cause in his time. He spoke of the mental, physical and emotional health of women.
 
"Women who abort their babies will have to beg forgiveness of  and from the pure souls of the babies they killed, He said. "Those little children will have far more forgiveness in them than the mothers deserve. But begging and remorse is a good start to the healing"

 
"I was a psychologist for 25 years. Every year I could count upon dealing with at least a dozen female patients who were suffering from mental, physical or emotional distress due to a previous abortion. 
In some cases I dealt with their husbands too who shared the distress. 
Some had willingly sought abortion. Some had been persuaded. Some had been bullied into an abortion by female peers, parents of both sexes, Doctors, Counsellors, the continual agitprop of the media, especially Feminist and Medical media personalities, and in a very few instances, their spouses/’partners’. 
ALL suffered guilt and shame, remorse and pain, more often than not quite a few years afterwards.  
Their own denial was clear to them as a ‘front’ designed to placate others. They were usually well aware that they had killed a baby and they were internally devastated. 
Despite the popular agitprop of “Women’s Rights’, every single patient of this sort that I dealt with felt cheated and abused by the ideology that promotes abortion. 
 
Abortion is a Tragedy. Occasionally it is a tragedy we cannot avoid. Life brings tragedies but we should not be legislating to create more."
Then someone turned to the other issue in the Bill. The one that even the baby-killers might need to think far more deeply about than they do. So keen are they to stop people discussing it, they want free speech made punishable.

 
As he pointed out:

 
 
"There are provisions in this Bill that go directly against the Human Rights and Civil Rights of all Australians. 
Horrendous fines and jail sentences are proposed for simply giving one’s opinion or going about one’s lawful occasions in the public place. 
Almost anyone can be considered to be ‘giving counsel’, and fined/jailed if they do not promote abortion.  The Bill specifically indicates that no qualification is needed by the ‘counsellor’.  An unqualified ‘Counsellor’ is anyone at all. 
A husband who encourages his pregnant wife that they can afford a baby and can raise it well,  can be jailed /fined for not also referring his wife to an abortionist. This is ludicrous. It completely disregards, even punishes Fathers. 
Professional, qualified people (Doctors, Nurses) can be fined/jailed for following their better Conscience. 

A YEAR in Jail. A $65000 Fine. 

Even a plumber can turn a job down or a builder refuse to tender for a house with no penalty or liability of a jail sentence. But a Nurse will lose a year’s pay and a Doctor a substantial part of hers/his. Both might even be jailed.  A great way to ruin our hospitals. 
The jail sentence recommended is greater than for actual manslaughter in some cases. This is ludicrous. 
Someone taking a photograph in the street can be fined for not even knowing that an abortion clinic is nearby.  And if they know and actually photograph it, they will be fined/jailed.  
Protesters against Abortion currently have a right to make their views known in public. This Bill will ‘outlaw’ them. It will take away their Freedom of Speech. "
Then he really nailed his flag to a high pole: 


 
"The Tasmanian Justice Minister (He's a Greenie) ought to prepare a cell for me.


 
I WILL deliberately break this onerous, totalitarian ‘Law’ when in Tasmania."



 
At that there were cheers and pledges to join him. And I served good wine to bolster good souls.

Coming Attractions on the Patio.



Workmen will be busy for a while from today constructing a grandstand on the Patio. We are expecting big crowds to our all-night, most of the day sessions, binoculars and GPS at the ready, watching the big events in Europe unfold. TWO big events in fact. Starting June 29th.

We can see a long way. Much further than most so you might want to get a comfy chair by your computer, Google Earth at the ready. Two of the the Greatest, toughest, most 'close-up' Races in the World starting on June the 29th with the Tour de France and interrupted after a week on July 7th by the Red Bull X-Alps: that will likely last an entire week. Perhaps more. Then the rest of the Tour can be followed.

Yep, From here we can see Europe !

The Red Bull X-Alps 2013 will be the sixth edition of the world's toughest adventure race. Athletes must either hike or fly approximately 1000km across the Alps from Salzburg to Monaco in the fastest time possible. Every kilometre must be covered either on foot or flown in a paraglider. It's a formidable undertaking and takes place in one of most breathtaking yet also unforgiving environments.



Each team consists of one athlete and up to two supporters. No technical or outside assistance is allowed. It requires expert paragliding experience and a very high level of endurance fitness — it's not uncommon for athletes to hike up to 100km in a day. The 2013 edition comes on the ten-year anniversary of the first Red Bull X-Alps.

You will be able to track every athlete who carries a GPS marker that even shows him spiralling up on thermals. See the marker as it hikes past on 'street view'.


Usually the athletes rest late at night but this year one night can be chosen by each for them to plod on, perhaps taking and extending a lead over their exhausted competitors. They are not likely to all choose the same night and as there are 32 stalwarts so far (expect a few drop outs before the day) there will be a few out on the roads and mountain tracks every night.

We will serve hot drinks and provide blankets and rugs. You can go to the toilet anytime an athlete does.

Vast quantities of spirit-lifting ale, wine and hard liquor are on order to bolster our already well-stoked cellar. The kitchens will have extra cooks. Singers and small orchestras will be on hand most evenings.


Tickets at the patio gate or you could goto:



 
Follow your favoured man or national team. But be there. You will be amazed.


The week before, and all through the Red Bull X-Alps race, we will also be able to see and follow the Tour De France.





France TV does a first class travel marketing job, showing superb countryside and historical sights. The camera-work at road and bike level is also a phenomenon. It is a huge treat for those who like to see men in lycra showing little else but their backsides. But the massed-peleton crashes are a far more spectacular sight to see.


SBS TV in Oz does the very best coverage and their Tour de France site can be found at :
