Spot on Luckas! When is the connection between Linda Hornsey & Prime Minister Kevin Rudd going to be looked at by the media? Why has he been sheilding her from questioning about the Steve Kons affair? Is he involved in the Steve Kons affair? Did he know what was happening here in Tassie? Why is he turning a blind eye towards Paul Lennon’s behavior?

I spotted “judicial independence scandal” floating on the ordure. Where is the Tas judiciary itself?

And WHO in the Labor and Liberal party’s have the balls, the guts, the fortitude to stand in some clear water and wash the hog wash from snouts in the trough? Talk about turning Tassies silk purse into a sows ear.

Doncha just luvit ! ! LABOR reverts to the Keating days , and does what they have always done best , screw the economy !
Not only do we have interest rates doing there usual Labor thing ,we now have apathetic knee jerk reaction in raising the price of the ” Alcoholic Drinks” that are targetted towards the our kids. instead of banning the bloody things ! as usual ! the Labor cure , as it has always been will be constant revenue raising measures instead of tackling the issues head on, and now this Linda Hornsey thing ?
Iv’e said it many times in the past and i say it again ! Australia is going to rue the day they passed over Costello for this cream puff.

Don, I hate to burst in on your rant, but, really, I don’t think our kids have just started binge drinking since Labour got power. I note with interest Howards highly effective actions, please remind me what they were again. Shit, I was binge drinking back in the seventies.
As for stuffing up the economy, you give far too much credit to Costello for its rise, and to Rudd et all for its demise.
I suggest a long trawl through the archives at http://www.internationalclearinghouse.whatever find it on google for some much needed perspective on what really matters in the world economy.

Wtf? Tomas has it right. This website should be coloured Green with a capital Bob Browne.
Why should anyone be allowed to publish and distribute this obvious Green garbage.
And what’s the problem with Linda Hornsey? She’s a career public servant and therefore above reproach.
And these rowdy meetings, why can’t this Green tinged fringe restrain themselves, sit quietly and applaud at the right time like normal people?

OK, if you want to be that rude, and indulge in that kind of personal denigration, what can you expect in return? As I have said elsewhere, I am one Labor supporter who will never again ever give the Greens any second preference support. In fact, I will put them absolutely fucking last!!! Not only that, I will be encouraging everyone else that i engage with to do the same.
Linda Hornsey, years ago, was was one of the best journalists the Mercury ever had. That was back in the days when that moribund shit-heap actually had journalists. It was different to the bunch of talentless cock-suckers they have got now. Look at the prize dick-smacker they recently promoted to sub-editor. A more partisan disgrace to the profession you could never wish to see….
But that aside, what can you expect from Labor supporters? Will we be giving any useful support to any Greens candidates in any electoral contest, whether it be Federal, State or Local? Not on your bloody life! And as for that senator from Wesley vale, when that disagreeable sneering bitch (the one with a voice like an angle grinder) comes up for re-election in three years, I will be doing my bit to help knock her off her perch. Now go to buggery…

(7) Wow George, that was so eloquent, so nicely!! put. A perfect summation of the underlying Lennon Labor thug attitude. Sure that sort of attitude will really rally, good people to your cause. Keep up the good work mate, with supporters like you, Lennon doesn’t need enemies.
Posted by Charles and Claire Gilmour on 01/05/08 at 09:06 AM
Well said, Charles & Claire (#8) - Do you get the feeling that people like poster #7 are feeling a little beseiged and are lashing out the only way they know how? With personal abuse and unwarranted foul language! I hope he keeps it up, however, because as you so rightly point out with friends like that foul-mouthed person on his side Lennon is gone, gone, gone…...........Rednecks, you’ve had your day!

What kind of a truck do you drive George ? let’s see ! a bloody “Mack” or a “Kenny” with the sticker shoot a greenie ! wake up to yourself ! ya fucking redneck ! your pushing the same bloody barrow as your hero Lennon ! can’t you see that damn near every one protesting are ordinary folk from all walks of life ? and in fact you would hardly see a single soul who would vaguely represent the type of “greenie” of which you refer to, now! you just jump back in your little lorry and see if you can find a woman with car load of kids you can terrorise.
wanker !

THEY ARE ALREADY ! well there you go , just because the Libs condoned it ! thats o.k then ! what we are doing to our kids IS WHAT REALLY MATTERS ! before your world economy.

Don, you prize turkey, have a look at what you wrote in #10. Read it back to yourself, and note how stupid it sounds. I’ll even help you out with some background information so that you can give your manic imagination a rest. I do not drive a Mack, or a “Kenny”. I am a woodworker. I have operated my own design & manufacturing business for the last 26 years, and I work with Tasmania’s unique special timbers. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Design, and I got involved in my first conservation campaign over 35 years ago, (Lake Pedder), and I have runs on the board in urban conservation campaigns. Sure, I’m a Labor Party supporter, and I have been for years. At my first opportunity to vote I helped re-elect the Whitlam government in 1974. Of course, I haven’t always agreed with everything every Labor government has done, but as a Liberal supporter, did you support everything Howard ever did? And did you think Peter Reith was a good bloke who was just vilified by the media?
I go back to my original point. The Greens have lost me. As I have said, I used to give them second preference votes, but that was a while ago. Never again! Irretrievable. If they are losing people like me, they’ve got a fucked strategy. For a small party and their supporters to be that offside with every other political party in the manner that they are, it is a fucked strategy.
And what is that bullshit about looking for a woman with a car load of kids to terrorise? You are the wanker…

Hey George ! you got all those smarts and you still feel the way you do about the greens and the majority of Tasmanians regarding this corrupt Lemon govt ! you have real problem pilgrim ! and if you don’t drive a truck ! with an attitude like yours ! thank bloody christ.
and YOU can go to buggery. !

(12) Looks like Woodworker has a penchant for helping out sackable Government Reps. How proud you must be to have been part of the support team of such an eventual political disaster. Maybe one could conclude with Woodworker involved, Lennon’s fate is a dismal as Whitlam’s was. Looks like there could be someting in the saying ‘what goes round, comes round’. Maybe you should hop of that cycle for a moment Woodworker and turn the handle bars around so you can peddle forwards, not continually backwards.
But the floors your Woodworker, please enlighten us some more, of who and what you are involved in and what your past and present links are. We are keenly interested.
Posted by Charles and Claire Gilmour on 03/05/08 at 10:14 AM
Don, I’ve got more bad news for you. While I mostly drive a Nissan utility, I have had a Medium Rigid truck licence for more than twenty years, and i have covered quite a few k’s in that time, with none of the bizzare incidents that your desperate imagination might come up with.
What have you ever done, apart from dribble shit on tasmaniantimes, you silly old fart?
Posted by George Harris aka woodworker on 03/05/08 at 10:46 AM
Charles and Claire, I used to have your email address, but not any more. I will make mine available through Lindsay if you would like to communicate directly, cheers, George
Posted by George Harris aka woodworker on 03/05/08 at 07:04 PM
Well ! George Harris, thanks to your phone call this evening , and yor post (12) i know that you are “woodworker”, my original post was to the “George Harris” who was being highly offensive to which i responded in kind with the thought that he indeed could be just another redneck truckie !
I am surprised that you asked my age as you already have made reference to that in your last post (15) which i have only just got around to viewing.
Silly old fart ! dribbling shit ?
Old ! i grant you , silly ! far from it ! and the bowels are working perfectly thank you , and no ! i have no interest in visiting your so called wood workmanship display.
