The reptiles are still brooding about Malware, and the mutton Dutton is feuding - what a hoot for Mr Potato Head to talk of dignified conduct - what, a coward's castle assault on anyone within earshot? - and could it be happening to a nicer member of the deep north swamp?
What joy, with the Bishop zigging and zagging around on the back bench, and the feud shaping up nicely, to put the Hatfields and the McCoys or even little Johnny v the Peacock to shame.
It'll probably take years for them to get over it, though the inverted commas around "colleagues" was bizarre, even by the usual paranoid reptile standards …

What the fuck? You leave the game, and even if you stay in the party, you don't keep your fair average colleagues, you end up with "colleagues" …
There's a world of mystery in a the whirl of a galaxy in the cream of a coffee …
...but it's nothing compared to the reptiles playing turf wars ...
All the pond could think, as the reptiles tried to blame it all on Malware, was how thoughtful Malware was being, offering ScoMo a handy club which might be dragged out at any time to give the maddened mutton Dutton a belt around the chops …
And so to a particular Thursday treat …
The savvy Savva always had the goss direct from Malware, but what now, with ScoMo the new speaker in tongues?
How would she cope? Sadly it seems there are questions to be asked, and a certain gloom-laden pessimism infiltrates the talk of Malware's "colleagues" ...
And there's the particular pleasure in the Savva …
… her observation that he's there because he's there because he's there, and the NEG isn't there because it isn't there because … onion muncher, Erica, mutton Dutton, yadda yadda …
And then came even more subtle hints of disunity and unhappiness ...
Indeed, indeed … after the worshipful, delusional bromancer how bizarre to see talk of a broad church … one apparently in which the rapture and speaking in tongues might sit harmoniously alongside climate science, and the freedom to consign gays to an eternity of hellfire might be guaranteed the holy stature of Commonwealth scripture …
Oh it's going to be a splendid couple of months, even without the benefit of the October 20 Wentworth by-election …
It doesn't really much matter who wins that outing - if there's a major slide against the vote Malware scored last time, the hounds will be out and about howling at the moon … (and for the record Malware scored just over 62% of the vote in 2016, meaning there's plenty of room to chop into the Liberal vote - Greg Hunters go here).
Well the candidate will be chosen soon enough - it might even be another woman lining up for a dose of party bullying - but ScoMo has already disgraced himself by pretending everything recently said by women in the party was just meaningless blather …
See nothing, hear nothing, off to a good start ...
How easily new emperors get themselves dressed without needing any clothes … and how nice that the man should be offered the consolation prize of a seat in the Senate…
The trouble of course with the Savva style is that she relies on the sly nick, and the occasional slash to the cheek with a rapier, and so the sense that the government is in ongoing deep doodah requires a little patient decoding ...
It's not the usual pond style, but then it would be unfair to expect more than one bromancer posting in a day ...
Luckily, to help keep the pond's quota of reptile silliness up to scratch, the lizard Oz editorialist offered this bit of advice today ...
How cheeky they are. How outrageous. This from a bunch of Donald lovers, the man who has done more for lying in politics than an entire generation of politicians …
Imagine someone in the ABC scribbling "the lizard Oz must resist shaping news" …"news is gathered, not faked, in the usual manner of Fox News and the Murdochians …"
They couldn't handle it.
It seems Andrew Probyn is their new target for a bullying campaign while the news shapers at Sky are dumped on the bush in a bid to train up a new generation of far right ragbags …
The end result? The reptiles are so far up themselves in their news shaping that apparently they don't seem to know what they've been doing these past few decades … so here's a few cartoons to remind them ...
The Savvy one is correct on one point - the LNP is no place for apprentice bullies. Only hardened professional bullies, with a lifetime of practical experience, from (private) school through University to dad's business or a mining lobby group, need apply.
