What Good are Party Politics?

I read this article on John Howards latest Smoke Screen.

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=275003

Aparently the reason the community has sunk to such a low level is because the Howard Government have been neglecting these people in the first place.

Quote: "They said the community had gone backwards in terms of services since Mr Brough became minister."

That says it all right there.

Is anyone surprised?

Howards Budget Surplus comes from somewhere... Right?

We knew the Doctors were unhappy with Howard. Because they refused to bulk bill.. Right?

The Unions are unhappy cos Howard forces reduced wages on all us plebs. At the same time Howards "Independant Tribunal" allows a 6.7% increase in politicians wages.

That Tribunal may be in theory be "Independant". But the way it goes is like this. The Tribunal consists of 3 people. They are selected by the Governor General. The Governor General is selected by the Prime Minister. So they may claim to be independant. But in reality they are 3 people who are on multiple boards and act as little more than a figurhead. While in reality the "work" is done by a Government Department secretairiate. So just how independant is it? When it is supplied with data from a government agency?

How about we force Howard and his cronies onto a performance based contract like he wants all Australians to be covered with? Whats wrong with that John? Let me fill out the contract.. I have seen a few of these things now. I will take your fat cat cash and replace it with 'Survival Money' like you tried to do to the rest of us.

If you dont like it... Stiff.. We dont like YOU John. I'd have the slimey ferret working for what he is worth. Bare minimum wages. Go back to doing whatever you want John.. But don't stuff up my country anymore.

Democracy is supposed to be the 'will of the people'...
How come that slimey ferret took us to war? When 80% of the population didn't want it? How does that work? When one man can overule public opinion? It doesn't sound like democracy.. It sounds like a dictatorship.

Same as what he is doing to the Aboriginals. They say the need infastructure. Howard offers then Police and Army. Fines for the poor of our community. Howard must have realized that this part of Australia has less fines than other parts. Well.. More cops should fix that.. Hang the human suffering cops cause.. Stuff the fallout of a complete disruption of reasonably quiet communities. Just more fine money in the bank to add to the surplus.

If Howard funded the states better we wouldn't have such a problem with Hospitals and many other previously state owned utilities wouldn't have been privitized. Howard is the direct cause of all this hardship. Next election. Use your head. Don't vote for Howard or any of his 'yes' men.

The ALP looks like a clone of Howards gang.. It's true.. The ALP state governments aren't doing a very good job either. They act like pseudo liberals nowadays.. They allow suffering at all levels without seeming to care.. They are no better than the liberals. So much for ALP policy.. They should stick to their blue color grass roots. Or the voting public may just allow Howard to remain. Because in the voting publics eye.. They are the same anyway..

Think back to basic physics. Things in motion tend to stay in motion. Things at rest tend to stay at rest. If there is no difference between the liberals and the ALP.. May as well leave the liberals in.. The ALP needs to get back to improving the lot of the common man. After 10 years of John Howard.. The working man needs a break. But only if the ALP are prepared to really improve the situation. If not.. Let em rot. Voting Independant is really the smart way.. Shame either the liberals or the alp are the only ones going to get in.. Thats why most people dont vote independant.

But there is a change coming. People dont like the way the politicians have been operating. Maybe sooner than you think Australians will wake up and realize that voting Independant is the only true way of getting representation that will not be stifled by some stupid party politics.

Would you want another slice of Howard with that War?

It's Time People!!
Some of the videos that I have been finding on you tube remind me.
Many Australians are unhappy with Australian Federal Government decisions and overall policy regarding social welfare, environment, health, and education. (Just to name a few..)

Industrial Relations and an involvement in a war is just icing on the cake for the ALP.

John Howards Government will be no more after the next election.

Time to remember past injustice..






















Remember to Vote accordingly in the 2007 Federal Election.

Vote 1 ALP (or independant depending on available candidates)

But remeber a vote for Liberal is a vote for more Howard dictatorship.

John Howard - Champion of the USA - Why?

"Perhaps this desire on the part of Howard's constituency to please the US answers the question why it possible for an elected PM to send Australian troops into Iraq without an electoral Mandate, Parliamentary debate, Parliamentary vote, Plebiscite or Referendum, and in the face of overwhelming opposition by the Australian public. Amazingly, the Australian Constitution allows a virtually dictatorial decision like that to be made without any such approval."

Read the whole article here: http://www.onlineopinion.com.au/view.asp?article=5536

In my opinion.. A loophole in the constitution that NEEDS to be closed.

Well.. What can I say...

lol

I will keep an eye on this site occasionally..

Back in 2001 I setup a lazerzap.com free domain redirection with a company called namezero. (they wanted me to pay after the trial.. But I never bothered..)

So namezero "kept" my domain name (activating a webpage on it) and periodically sent me emails asking if I wanted to "purchase" the domain name from them.

See: http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://lazerzap.com

Dunno what wrong with the other links from archive.org..
But the one dated may works..

http://web.archive.org/web/20010518170702/http://www.lazerzap.com/

Thats a redirect to lazerzap.com from one of my main free internet webspace providers.. (I can't remember which one now..)

But check out my current link to lazerweb..

http://lazerzap.zapto.org/Website/ron.php

Look similar.. You betcha.. ;)

(Since I am obviously the original internet lazerzap..)

Shhhesh.. Get rich quick.. ha!!! not on my meager income you wont..
(dumb nerds)

I wont be paying for lazerzap.com (rofl, pmsl, lmao)
(They wasted their money on that one....)

http://lazerzap.zapto.org/ will do me fine for awhile.. lol

Has WIN 10 gone too far?

Geez.. I dont know..
Maybe its me... But I don't think so..
I know I'm getting old. (49)
Perhaps it does make a difference that I have 2 kids under 14..
I guess because of that I'm getting more sensitive to TRASH on TV.

At 7.30pm on Friday 23rd March 2007 the kids and I were watching TV.

Although initially I didn't want the kids influenced by the Simpsons deranged American brand of humor. Eventually I bowed to the Childrens Peer Preasure.
(All the other Kids watch it.. They talk about it at school and we feel like your making us live in the 1950's. Why can't we watch the Simpsons?)

Thankfully as the years progressed the Simpsons became more Kid friendly.
(Even I get a chuckle at the antics of the Simpsons nightly nowadays.)

Night/Primetime - Friday, 23 March, 2007
SA - South East SA
WIN TEN
6.00pm The Simpsons
6.30pm Neighbours
7.00pm The Biggest Loser
7.30pm The Simpsons
8.00pm The Simpsons
8.30pm The Sweetest Thing

Not that we get a choice on Win 10. Notice the 3 Simpsons episodes.
(Gimme a break WIN 10 - I now like the Simpsons.. But 3 Episodes a night??)

Then it was 8.30pm.
A Movie started. It was called "The Sweetest Thing".
Well.. This Movie had me off my chair and "attempting" to find a TV station I could happily allow the kids to see.

I mean.. It's 8.30pm on Friday Night. No School tomorrow.
So of course the kids want to stay up a little later than usual.
They normally go to bed on a School night at 9.30pm.

Anyway.. "The Sweetest Thing" isn't for kids..
It embarased me in front of the kids in the first 5 mins of the Movie.

Maybe I should just "give up" and turn off the TV after 8.30pm.
Because not much is suitable for the kids after that time.

I just thought that at 8.30pm on a Friday night the Network Executive who chose the content would have "eased" out of the Simpsons into something less severe for parents.

Win 10 rated it as (M) Mature Audiences. [Adult Themes or medical procedures, Coarse language, Sexual references/sex scenes] But in my opinion (for the 5 mins I saw it) It should have been rated much higher. Initially this TRASH was rated (R) in the USA. Why then is it rated (M) here?

In a nutshell.. It's about GIRLS who are looking for "Mr RIGHT NOW!!" rather than "Mr Right".

Very modern attitude you might say.
Yes why not brain wash our Daughters to think Cock a doodle doo any cock will do?

I'm sorry but this is un-acceptable as a parent of a young Daughter.
I don't care if the main offender has a change of heart later in the story.

The explicit nature of the Movie coupled with the FOUL Language isn't something I want my Daughter to emulate.

Have a read of what kind of content was in "The Sweetest Thing"

http://www.screenit.com/movies/2002/the_sweetest_thing.html

Scroll down the page (of the above link) and really look at what was contained in this "M" rated movie.

Now maybe you understand why I was embarased with this TRASH going on in front of my Kids?

Another review link follows.. (Much smaller link - Mainly gives the storyline and reviewers comments)

http://www.haro-online.com/movies/sweetest_thing.html

From above link - 1 hour, 24 minutes, Rated R for strong sexual content and language.

Next problem...

Monday Morning just after Midnight. I turn on the TV.

Sheeesh They are playing JackAss.. OMG how disgusting.

I watch a man piss on some snow he has placed in an ice cream cone.
Then he eats it.
Then he throws up.

Whats wrong at WIN TV?

Is there anyone in charge there? Who do I blame for this garbage?

The last segment of JackAss I see a man insert a toy car into a condom.
Lubes it up with "Anal Gel" and sticks it up his anus.

Is this supposed to be funny?

I find it sick and disgusting.

Click the link to see what I (thankfully) missed.
(I'm glad I wasnt watching from the start)
I think I saw the last 10 mins - Only kept watching so I could blog this.
(Shakes head)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stunts_performed_in_Jackass:_The_Movie

Sheeesh.. Someone needs to be sacked at WIN 10.

(I first saw this JackAss crap on the internet when it was first released. Never thought a TV Station would drop this low.)

It's either Infomercials all night or this shit!

(By the way. The Law of Probablity says some Kids were still awake and watching at Midnight - I hope your proud Mr TV Executive. With any luck it was your Kids who saw it and will try and emulate it. You total plonker Mr TV Executive!!)

I complained immediately to the poor girl who acts as an answering service to WIN 10.
I will email this next to WIN 10. I hope they realise that this is a complaint.
Next Stop will be A.C.M.A. (Australian Communications and Media Authority). If I dont receive a reply from WIN 10 within 30 days. As per current legislation.)

A copy of this letter with any reply is posted at http://lazerzap.blogspot.com/

Pick up the ball WIN TV!!! You dropped it badly.

Sueing Mr. Santoro

Hmmm I thought.. This Mr Santoro has made a big mistake.. What he has done is in breach of the Constitution of Australia and carries large penalties as described in that document. Wow I thought.. The people of Australia can bring a class action against Mr Santoro and there is nothing he can do about it because it is written in plain language as being a condition of becoming a Member of Parliament or a Senator.

So I contacted my Federal Liberal Party Representative Mr Patrick Secker.
What follows is the email that I sent to him.

"
Mr Secker, (P.Secker@aph.gov.au )

I contact you regarding the conduct of Mr. Santo Santoro and his family.
Trading Shares in companies that he directly or even indirectly was able
to influence or assist as a Member of the House of Representatives is against the Australian Constitution.

--------------------------------------------------------

See: Chapter I. The Parliament. (http://www.aph.gov.au/senate/general/constitution/chapter1.htm)
Part IV - Both Houses of the Parliament
44. Any person who -

(i.) Is under any acknowledgement of allegiance, obedience, or adherence to a foreign power, or is a subject or a citizen or entitled to the rights or privileges of a subject or citizen of a foreign power: or

(ii.) Is attainted of treason, or has been convicted and is under sentence, or subject to be sentenced, for any offence punishable under the law of the Commonwealth or of a State by imprisonment for one year or longer: or

(iii.) Is an undischarged bankrupt or insolvent: or

(iv.) Holds any office of profit under the Crown, or any pension payable during the pleasure of the Crown out of any of the revenues of the Commonwealth: or

(v.) Has any direct or indirect pecuniary interest in any agreement with the Public Service of the Commonwealth otherwise than as a member and in common with the other members of an incorporated company consisting of more than twenty-five persons:

shall be incapable of being chosen or of sitting as a senator or a member of the House of Representatives.

But sub-section iv. does not apply to the office of any of the Queen's Ministers of State for the Commonwealth, or of any of the Queen's Ministers for a State, or to the receipt of pay, half pay, or a pension, by any person as an officer or member of the Queen's navy or army, or to the receipt of pay as an officer or member of the naval or military forces of the Commonwealth by any person whose services are not wholly employed by the Commonwealth.

45. If a senator or member of the House of Representatives -

(i.) Becomes subject to any of the disabilities mentioned in the last preceding section: or

(ii.) Takes the benefit, whether by assignment, composition, or otherwise, of any law relating to bankrupt or insolvent debtors: or

(iii.) Directly or indirectly takes or agrees to take any fee or honorarium for services rendered to the Commonwealth, or for services rendered in the Parliament to any person or State:

his place shall thereupon become vacant.

46. Until the Parliament otherwise provides, any person declared by this Constitution to be incapable of sitting as a senator or as a member of the House of Representatives shall, for every day on which he so sits, be liable to pay the sum of one hundred pounds to any person who sues for it in any court of competent jurisdiction.

47. Until the Parliament otherwise provides, any question respecting the qualification of a senator or of a member of the House or Representatives, or respecting a vacancy in either House of the Parliament, and any question of a disputed election to either House, shall be determined by the House in which the question arises.

48. Until the Parliament otherwise provides, each senator and each member of the House of Representatives shall receive an allowance of four hundred pounds a year, to be reckoned from the day on which he takes his seat.

---------------------------------------------------

As a result I will be seeking legal advise in sueing Mr. Santoro for 1/4 of his yearly salary for every day that he failed to resign.

Section 48. indicates that a member of the house of representatives is to be paid 400 pounds per year.

Section 46. indicates that 100 pounds per day is to be paid by members who default on the provisions contained within the constitution.

Obviously members salaries have been increased and converted to decimal currency since the constitution has been formed.

I take section 46 to indicate 1/4 the members salary.

I therefore demand to know:

1. The date Mr. Santoro aquired the shares or bonds that he sold.

2. What other companies Mr. Santoro has interests in.

3. The date that Mr. Santoro disposed of his interests in those companies.

4. If Mr. Santoro has disposed some of his intersts to his immediate family.

5. If those shares or interests (disposed of to Mr. Santoro's family) have now been sold or traded.

6. What date those interests were disposed of.

7. How many days was Mr. Santoro in breach of the guidelines contained in Section 45. of the constitution.

If there are other acts or laws dealing with Members allowances or penalties in existance.

Please provide the information to me via the above email address.

Please Note: This email along with your answer will be posted on the internet site know as:

http://lazerzap.blogspot.com/

Thank You for your time taken over this matter.

End Email

Later I found this this surfing around you tube..





It seems I wasn't the only person to notice Mr Santoro.

Howard 'forced' down in Iraq?

On the TV I saw Mr Howard scampering from the plane..

First of all... Read this link..

http://archiearchive.wordpress.com/2007/03/21/another-john-howard-porky/

Very interesting... And decidedly accurate..
How sad for Mr Howard..

Can you imagine how he felt?

Partially responsible for the destruction of Iraq

Now forced down into an area where he may have to 'face'
the people he has hurt so much...

Maybe the look of terror on his face wasn't
fake afterall?

Oh.. Certainly the Cameras were 'setup'

Democracy or What??

According to Wikipedia: "Democracy.. is a form of government for a nation state, or for an organization in which all the citizens have an equal vote or voice in shaping policy."

I have a simple question.




Why then am I restricted from contacting my local members. Both liberal. State and Federal. When I attempt to have existing laws modified, or discuss current policy of any description. The honorable members need me to articulate my thoughts using pen and paper rather than via a simple telephone connection.

I guess they have both decided that I am too difficult to deal with on a weekly level. lol (I kinda dont blame them.. Because they have a lot to answer for.. )

My Federal MP listened to the sound of my unhappy ideals being flushed down the toilet by his federal leadership for about 10 seconds before I was informed that he would not be receiving phone calls from me anymore and that in future to contact him only in writing.

The State MP was able to effectively dodge most questions by blaming the state of the system on his Federal cohorts. However, initially he did hear me out and I came away thinking that this man actually cared. Unfortunately subsequent telephone calls have resulted in similar screening as I receive from my Federal Representative. When I attempt to contact my State MP directly.



The requirement to represent is still being maintained by my elected members.

They just demand that I only contact them in writing.

At the next election. I will vote accordingly.
