On Bolt Report an ongoing policy is that any Islam post can only be on the pinned leader. Normal rules apply in that if it is merely foul and abusive it will be deleted. Otherwise comments are welcome.

ABC's Chris Uhlman was touted as being a conservative working for the ABC in WA to then treasurer Peter Costello. Costello said he wasn't doubting the conservative credentials of Uhlman, but it came as no surprise, given the bias of the ABC to the left, that out of some fifty thousand employees, a single conservative might be known by name. Later, after Costello made his observation, it turned out Uhlman was actually a Greens follower, but tried to be balanced in his reporting. Which explains why other ABC employees were so certain he was conservative. But sometimes Uhlman falls far short of the lofty goal of being balanced. As when he promotes Abbott hating memes. One of which was the prejudicial Japanese Submarine deal, accusing Mr Abbott of trying to govern well by favouring a good product. It would not be good for Mr Abbott to break the tender process, and he hasn't. But one would not know listening to Uhlman's gossip. That is only one example of Uhlman's glaring failure to be balanced. Some idiots might say that Uhlman has said good things about Mr Abbott in the past, and so saying wrong things now is balancing.
Blogger Tim Blair posted a joke about the name of an ISIL terrorist, actually the joke was their name, and a journalist in UK mistakes it for failed news copy. And twitter goes berserk without anyone noting it was a deliberate joke for a blogger. Tim had written an opinion piece. Tim is a journalist who writes excellent articles, when he writes them, too. But the standard of news papers like Fairfax, ABC or Guardian is so low that none of them researched their vapid comments. Saliently, SMH threw a party in Sydney's Domain Park, and nobody came.
ALP, keen not to be under performed by their news wings, sent out Plibersek to entangle Mr Abbott over the executions of two of the Bali Nine. She back tracked after being challenged for the faux pas of politicising the coming event.

There is something particularly Irish about celebrating St Patrick's Day on the anniversary of the day he died. His legacy to Ireland is Christian. He is credited with killing all the snakes in Ireland. One fact is there are no snakes in Ireland, outside of a zoo. Another fact is that there never have been snakes in Ireland. Possibly there were snake cults in Ireland which St Patrick defeated, but why spoil a good tale? Ireland is well known as Catholic, but St Patrick wasn't Roman Catholic and neither was Ireland until Henry Viii broke free from Rome and established the Anglican Church. But the truth is Ireland, like her women, is gorgeous. She sings a beautiful, haunting song.
Today is also the anniversary (180 AD) of the death of stoic Roman Emperor, last of the five good ones, Marcus Aurelius. But, on 455 AD, and on a happy thought for Harry Potter fans, Petronius Maximus got the support of the Roman Senate to become emperor of the Western Roman Empire. His happy thought ended prematurely two and a half months later when Rome was sacked by Vandals. A salient lesson for any who govern on happy thoughts. In 1780, Washington gave his men a holiday in support of the Irish. Proving for all time happy thoughts can be effective. On this day in 1805, Napoleon tired of being the President of the republic of Italy, and became king of the kingdom of Italy.

For twenty two years I have been responsibly addressing an issue, and I cannot carry on. I am petitioning the Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott to remedy my distress. I leave it up to him if he chooses to address the issue. Regardless of your opinion of conservative government, the issue is pressing. Please sign my petition at www.change.org/en-AU/petitions/tony-abbott-remedy-the-persecution-of-dd-ball

Mr Ball, I will not sign your petition as it will do no good, but I will share your message and ask as many of friends who read it, to share it also. Let us see if we cannot use the power of the internet to spread the word of these infamous killings. As a father and a former soldier, I cannot, could not, justify ignoring this appalling action by the perpetrators, whoever they may; I thank you Douglas. You are wrong about the petition. Signing it is as worthless and meaningless an act as voting. A stand up guy would know that. - ed
Lorraine Allen Hider I signed the petition ages ago David, with pleasure, nobody knows what it's like until they've been there. Keep heart David take care.
