Rundle: Planet Janet accidentally gets to the heart of political change | Crikey
Guy Rundle on Janet Albrechtsen’s moronic selective amnesia when it comes to Catholic teachings and the contradiction of prominent Catholics like Tony Abbott and Kevin Andrews abandoning Catholic social justice for a right wing Capitalist version of Christianity.

Virtual World Direct Closed Down
I can't believe that VWD has ceased trading. I've been with them for 6 years and won lots of prizes in that time from e-lottery. It looks like the UK Government closed them down for allegedly making misleading statements. The company denies this and claims that the legal costs would be too high to defend against the action.

Australian Labor News - Let's move Australia forward
Treasurer’s Economic Note. Australia’s economy continues to thrive while half the population voted for Tony Abbott who opposes all the measures that are keeping the economy strong. There is no underestimating the power of corrupt media to manipulate the views of the lumpen masses.

Election will be a 'referendum on tax' - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
Tony Abbott is now out there, all alone in opposing a valuable tax for Australia that everyone else involved supports. He is fast becoming the most irrelevant politian in Australia. Maybe joint winner with Steve Fielding.

NEWSPOLL 52-48: RUDD VINDICATED | The Daily Bludge – Independent News
A good poll result for the government. News Corp and The Australian, in particular should be very embarrassed by their failing campaign against Labor. Also, the ABC is becoming more and more tabloid, picking up on the more sensationalist angle of Abbott “closing the gap” on Rudd as preferred Prime Minister. It’s the 2PP result that is the more important and worthy of highlighting.

Good call. The ridiculous obsession with an artificially low 100km/h speed limit on a good road like Eastlink or the M1 is more dangerous than a more sensible 130 – 140km/h limit.

Anti-Tony Abbott Facebook Groups
The Tony Abbott Will Never Be Prime Minister Facebook group is a welcome sign after seeing all the anti-Labor feeling in cyber-space. It's a good source of information and feels nice to reinforce one's own opinion...
It's also good to see that this sanitary napkin has more friends than Tony Abbott.
Then there's the Friends don't let friends vote for Tony Abbott angle.
Tony Abbott is a F***wit seems like an obivious statement, so there's a group for that too.
Simply put, Tony Abbott is Evil is good too.
Everytime you vote for Tony Abbott god kills a kitten sounds cute.
Yet another one, this time highlighting his controlling attitude towards women, get your rosaries off my ovaries.
Another smaller one, Tony Abbott is a F*^KHEAD!!! is there too.

Most annoying ad on TV
That ad on Southern Cross 10 for dealbusters.com.au has to be the most annoying ad on TV at the moment. That stupid FM radio echo effect on the annoying voiceover is the worst part, but the useless offers they promote are almost as bad. Who tf wants 10% off wig hire when hiring a whole costume from some costume hire joint in Traralgon? What a score!!
