    Welcome back, Tze Ming!

    To our American readers, think Sarah Palin's personality crossed with Michelle Malkin's body.

  • Island Life: Effective Immediately,

    Mercifully, I'm no longer a consumer of ads for the most part (thanks GB-PVR).

  • Southerly: Dear Dr Bollard,

    That's the sort of PC nonsense that's ruining this country of ours. I bet you're the sort of mollycoddling fool who doesn't let his kids play with corrosive liquids. Pah.

    Yeah, why can't kids these days play HE grenade hackysack? Or cowboys and indians with live ammo?

  • Hard News: That Buzzing Sound,

    Where I draw the line is trying to register patents on plant varieties that are already widely used merely by virtue of having isolated and described their genomes.

    Kind of like the biotech equivalent of the Sonny Bono Copywrong Extension Act (aka Mickey Mouse Protection Act).

    And I find it hard to define Kedgle's position on GE as anything other than reductionist. Cuts both ways.

    As in quasi-McGillicuddyism without the humour?

    But given Slater's history of racist, misogynist blather ... well, let's just say he has no discernible sense of irony.

    With the racism, I suspect it's more the Model Minority stereotype - yellow/sepia good, brown/black/sandy bad, or something to that effect. A stereotype that is, from my own experiences, total fucking bullshit.

    Field? He's guilty as. Hasn't he been hung yet?

    And Helen had the good sense to show him the door when he was turning politically toxic.

  • Hard News: That Buzzing Sound,

    "A senior policeman told me" sounded suspiciously like a fib made up on the spot, someone needs to ask her the next obvious question - what was the policeman's name?

    Some of my best friends are Polynesians, but...

    Seriously though, she doesn't speak for this Chiwi.

    Have you also noticed how every nutjob/fundie/string-em-up/climate-change-denier group in this country seems to have links with Muriel Newman?

    The 6, no, 3 Degrees of Muriel Newman. Something that Paul L could dig dirt on.

    The last I heard from Muriel, her latest fad was the concept of Terra Nullius in regards to the Maori.
