The reptiles are in the habit of holding back Polonius, apparently because they think he can generate some clicks later on an idle weekend, but damned if the pond can allow the prattler to stay in the shadows, not when he has vital information to impart about the coup … and true Liberalism ...
True Liberal?
Yes, in prattling Polonius's world, the quest to spot heretics, traitors, splitters and deviants is a never-ending job, though strangely only some of these come to his attention … while other heretics, brazen and bold, strut about pretending to be true Liberals ...
Oh talk about a quaint walk back through memory lane (Fairfax here) …
Of course the onion muncher was tempted by the devil a number of times, until the cock crowed and he betrayed the social justice leanings that are explicit in Catholic church teachings ...

Incidentally while talking of ideological and theological purity, this can be found in prattling Polonius's wiki listing here …
Now as surely as the oscillating fan can explain that the 'socialist' in National Socialist means that Nazis are pinko pervert leftist swine, it can even more confidently be asserted that the Democratic Labor Party was a genuine "Labor" movement, provided you were properly Catholic and decently anti-Commie.
Why for a time they even spelled "Labor" the same way and the rest of the agenda was pure "Labor" until it became more and more rabid on social matters (Greg Hunters go here).
Of course back in the day Polonius himself was a notoriously impure splitter, as charted with much humour by Greg Rundle at Crikey here …(may be paywall affected):
Henderson damns Santamaria for driving the movement to splits on two crucial occasions, seeing its dissident style as a refusal of possible success, which could have been got by a more friendly relationship with the Liberal Party and other institutions of the Protestant mainstream. One suspects that it was at this moment that Santa realised that young Henderson might not be Movement material. He split and split in the way Lenin did, and for the same reason — because you can’t cut through unless the edge is sharp. What did worldly success matter to a man who saw this world as the shadow of the greater one?
So now we've talked of heretics and splitters and now we know that both the onion muncher and Polonius himself consorted with the "Labor" devil, and are about as "true Liberal" as the pond, we can move on to the usual history Lesson ...

Uh huh, but Polonius saves his best line for the next gobbet in relation to the onion muncher: "The leadership transition was bitter but professional."
So all that sniping, wrecking, undermining, destabilising, white-anting over the years was just professional bitterness … and lordy lordy how the bitterness continues at Malware's clever malfeasance, which undid the puppet mutton Dutton and his shadowy onion munching puppeteer … though it was typical that - of all the ashamed and abashed Liberals who skulked away from the meeting - it was the unashamed and unabashed onion muncher who stopped to unload a bunch of drivel on the waiting media...
Actually it seems the Liberal way is to sound like you have a rather large pineapple lodged in your bum, because if what the onion muncher has been doing these last few years is part of the Liberal Way, then the Way surely leads to the Pit of Grief, Solitude, Bitterness and Despair …
And so to the Brutus bit ...
Morrison will not attract the attention of a Turnbull?
Mark that one down as another Polonial prediction that will someday be worth recalling …
And while on "true Liberalism", the pond should note that the Oz editorialist was also at it this day, blathering about "Liberal orthodoxy", because the hunt for deviants and heretics never ends amongst the Orwellians ...
Um, actually, didn't the onion muncher first roll Malware and set the merry circus off? Never mind, it's possible to imagine the reptiles indulging in a fainting fit at the thought of Malware indulging in a "progressive" experiment …
Yep, gay marriage remains the end of the world, even though done to the onion muncher's formula, and even though it's about the only sign an alleged "progressive" experiment achieved anything 'progressive' these past few years … and that thanks to voters, and not to the politicians who delegated the task …
Never mind, the Oz editorialist is almost as tedious as prattling Polonius and so deserves an honoured spot at the pond ...
Of course the reptiles are a little toey at the way their fearless crusading for the mutton Dutton, alleged King Arthur of Western Civilisation, was noted in other sections of the media, so of course they're going to get upset about Malware talking of a media conspiracy … though there's more than enough evidence of a hive mind groupthink attitude that runs through the entire organisation.
How the cawing Crowe must now be delighted to run wild and free …
… though it would help if the reptiles gave up the delusion that they were the heart and soul of Liberal orthodoxy, as opposed to demented far right rat bags, eh Davo?
Never mind, Sco Mo is the new hope … he speaks in tongues don't ya know, and Western Civilisation is represented these days by thugby league, and certainly not by Bach, Beethoven or that filthy splitter heretic sport, the AFL, and never mind that ScoMo embarked on a feud with Ray Hadley that resonates in the Terror even to this day … (Fairfax here)
Yes, that'll do, love coal, ignore climate science, bash difficult blacks and wogs, and everything will be hunky dory … and now back to the lizard Oz for more guidance on how not to be a heretic ...
Dear sweet saintly heretic, did you see that? Malware was seen by the reptiles talking to an actual member of the Guardian Australia.
Why he might have been better off doing the beast with double backs with Satan Herself …
And so to even more blather ...
Point of order muh lud. "The more we turn over prime ministers" might well refer to the hive mind at the lizard Oz, but the pond can say with some honesty that it should not be included in that "we".
The pond has had absolutely nothing to do with turning over any recent prime minister, and thus far, the pond has not been bought in any way, shape or form, despite advertising itself as open to offers and a very cheap trick at that.

But enough, the reptiles are winding up and so must the pond … talk about a long haul through orthodoxy and true Liberalism …
And yes, what do you know, they're a set of marching orders of the "He Must" kind …
You know, "he must" and then "he must" and then "he must" and only then might he be allowed into the reptile Valhalla of the unthinking, unquestioning orthodoxy ...

The pond hopes things settle down for at least the next two days so it can catch up with the latest crime news from the United States. Meanwhile, time for a little entertainment, and better late to a meme, than not at all …
… though. because of the song rights involved, it might be necessary to click on the "watch on YouTube" button - same as it ever was ...
Alex (Son of) Turnbull blames Murdoch on twitter.
ReplyDeleteAhh, but we have it on very good authority (Sharri Markson, no less), that saying such things isn't, as you might benightedly imagine, an exercise of the sacred right of "free speech", JS, but is actually "disgusting".
DeleteI'm sure the Murdochians will arrange for Alex to suffer his due penance.
