The Sky ... IS NOT....the only thing falling even if the climate is changing.

Good Morning Di,
(we are with Di this week and next while Grant takes a well deserved break) http://www.2sm.com.au/presenters.html)

It is pathetic listening to political glass jaws like Senator Stephen Conroy whine on and on about how unfair it is for the media to criticise the government.

This week Conroy made claims that there is a newspaper campaigning to have the government thrown out of office.


The poor thin skins in the ALP are upset by any criticism.

But now, oh dear oh my.

Now they are even more upset now because, well at least according to the ALP, there are media outlets who have decided to have this government run out of office .....and that, says the Senator, is why all the critiscism of the ALP is ALL unfair and unfounded.


Now even if all media outlet were in fact campaigning to have them thrown out of office
their role as a government is to get on with the roles of government.

Frankly if they did that the public might have more respect for them .

But their current one eye fascination with climate change has this government “ruining around” (sic) like Henny Phoney (sic) and a Stupid Goosey (sic) and trying to blame someone else for their problems ….

...Turn It Up

I’m Michael Robinson

National Press Club Climate Debate, Climate Change, The Sky is or is not falling.




below is an extractfrom The National Press Club's summary of who the two speakers were at yesterday's press club debate on climate change.

I do find it interesting that no Australian stood up to be the against carbon tax side, but well done to Lord Monkton for a very well articulated and entertaining approach.
