The former Prime Minister of Australia, Kevin Rudd, has been a busy boy lately. He has launched a petition calling for a royal commission into Rupert Murdoch's media empire ( which includes Sky News Australia ) after coming to the conclusion that News Corp was running a "protection racket" for the Coalition.
Now, we Aussies know that Sky is the home to Peta Credlin, Alan Jones, Rowan Dean, Mark Latham. Chris Kenny and Paul Murray. Not to mention one of my favourites, Gary Hardgraves. We also enjoy the insight of James Morrow, Rita Panahi and guests including the delightful Bronwyn Bishop ( who should have been our first Lady Prime Minister ) the magnificent Advance Australia representative Liz Storer and dear John Ruddick.
What a pack of bastards the left think these people are. Yet, to people like me, they are the link to sanity in my insane world that is Australia in the dystopian Mad Max World that is 2020.

The colloquial Aussie-ism directed at men who lack ticker, who are seen as weak, in leadership or intestinal fortitude, is one that I have never liked is that ‘he does not have the balls’. Yet this expression wraps that vision in a nutshell.
As one like millions of Australians and those who now call this great country home, I have watched as an epidemic, greater than any mutation of a ‘flu virus, be it natural or generated in a Chinese laboratory , remain impotent and frustrated. That epidemic is not the attack on the physical senses, but the neurological ...it is F E A R!
It' s been a big year from all around the globe this year with more nominations than ever before in history. In a field of standout contenders internationally, the Australian Finalists for 2020 have been announced. It has been a hard decision due to the sheer volume of incredibly sh!t people we had to choose from.
90 minutes of emotion against rational thought. Welcome to the Vice Presidential debate of 2020. And what a debate it was.
I sat watching the VP hopeful, Ms Kamala Harris grind her way through an hour and a half of deflection and sobs; nasal emotional pleas for justice and a fly buzzing around while a dog barked and a camel pissed itself.
Meanwhile, Vice President Mike Pence sat calmly like an indulgent yet powerful parent whilst the little kiddie choked back sobs with " heartfelt and intense emotion " and Daddy shook his head and said " No. "
Seriously, is this what we have come to? Reality TV where some disadvantaged brown woman croaks out pleas for social justice whilst a white Christian male sits back and endures her lies?
It is said that a civilisation can be judged by the way it treats its vulnerable. If this is the case, then we are a beyond help, unless we have a major reset in our values and moral compass.
Today I read with dismay and horror the story of an 83 year old woman with dementia who " fell " in an Australian hospital. Well, it must have been one hell of a " fall. "
Make no mistake. President Trump is the People's President. Across the world.
Just as Princess Diana, the People's Princess, gained the love and admiration of the people when she walked through the minefields of Laos all those years ago, President Trump has gained the love and admiration of people for his courage walking back to work after his brush with the Chinese Virus and leftist assasination attempts. He walked, as Princess Di did - with dignity, courage and incredible willpower and determination.
I often wondered how Princess Di , Lady Di, call her what you will - how she did that walk in Laos.
That takes guts.
And President Trump did a Lady Di and stood firm in the face of adversity and fear and he stared down the demons that many of us could not.
That is hero stuff.
I have just seen a video clip of five police arresting an expectant mother on a beach in Melbourne for not wearing a mask. .. failing to provide proof of who she is....... whatever their latest " reason " , the temperature was 30 degrees and people were on the beach, I noticed that others were not wearing a mask but they had to pick on another pregnant lady to be their victim. Old ladies with hip replacements, expectant mothers , the most vulnerable people the police of Victoria can find and they are using their powers to upset and victimise them. Worse still, she appeared to be bleeding and could have miscarried. Did they call an ambulance? No. They arrested her.
I read with dismay some of the comments made on Social Media about President Trump's recent health issue. I believe that now is a good time to share our support and pray for him and his family, his staff and those who have been afflicted by the Chinese Virus.
How many of them know the story of Donald Trump's relationship with the Bible?
Here is the story that most of those nasty people do not know and probably do not even care about anyway.
But for those of us who have a love of this man and the work that he has done for us. I want to share it again.
God Bless him and I am sure I join many of you from around the world in wishing him well and letting him know how much he is loved.
I would love to feel that this small gesture may help him in his journey to wellness - can we get a prayer chain going?

So said Vice President Mike Pence. The real one, not the ex Vice President that Chris Wallace referred to in the debate. Yes, I know that it is a courtesy afforded to ex Vice Presidents, but it seemed strange to me that Wallace referred to PRESIDENT Trump as Mr Trump… but that is what happens these days when it is politically incorrect to be correct. The left can pick and choose when it comes to accuracy.
I was struck by the outrage over a group I had never heard of before “ Proud Boys.”
Apparently it was dreadful that President Trump failed to denounce this group. So I looked them up and checked it out.
I have just spoken with my Mum about my Dad and, over the telephone, and we have enjoyed a trip down memory lane about Old Times.
Dad passed 4 years ago and, as much as he has gone, he is still with us. Everyday.
We both had a drink in our hands, and started to talk about what made my Father the man that Mum misses and I miss so much. We wanted to paint him as a man who we love because he was so kind and decent. After a few more snifters , we decided that our gorgeous man was simply a Man. Yes, a Man.
You know the guy: the one who is no longer wanted, needed, regarded or respected.
After all he is just a man and a mysogonist prick because he is not gender fluid or PC these days.
