Wow, that Tony Abbott is a genius. He can cut taxes without COMMUNIST CARBON TAX! And he won't tell you how he can do it until the Liberal Party is elected into government.

He should also claim that he can cure cancer but won't do it until he's PM.

THE BLOCK IS BACK HAVE YOU SEE OURRR RENOVATION PLANS WERE GONNA BE PROPERTY MULTIMILLIONARIES IN NO TIME AND THEN WELL BUY HEAPS OF MOTHER CANS

only real criticism is that the people who could most benefit from seeing it were all listening to "remember when" with bruce & phil

Good of the Masterchef writers to schedule the CONSPIRACY against State of Origin on Wednesday night.

muslim "leaders". Thats like saying "australia's church leaders" when talking about L Ron Hubbard or something.

LOL which reminds me of a classic one I saw in t'Age yesterday. Thus spake the spokeslady for the $cientologists in melb:

Ms Stewart said the church ''shares none of the characteristics of a cult''.

''We do not have a messianic leader, we do not predict the end of the world, our members are urged to think for themselves and are not subject to 'coercive persuasion or mind control'. And we most certainly do not promote suicide or murder as solutions to human unhappiness. Quite the opposite,'' she said.

Laugh? I nearly went to Ethiopia.

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-07-19/news-corp-share-slump-murdoch/2799888

Shares in the company fell another 4 per cent on the Australian share market yesterday, closing at a two-year low of $14.16.

They are now down nearly 20 per cent since the saga began, with some analysts estimating News Corp's (international?) value has dropped by around $9 billion.

(I added the question bit)

Wait, this is not zeitgeist because Murdoch has suppressed it across his mastheads, WRONG THREAD SORRY

wouldn't have thought that's a problem since everybody else is carrying it

Amazing how many people know nothing about it though (wholly from reading nothing but murdoch press)
