If there is one thing the left needs to learn from Labors disasterous polling on Saturday its the predictable short term gain of carelessly following of the ever shifting greens and social reform agendas of the paid left :
If you stand with the superficial and reactionary , you will soon lose your credibility- your right to govern will be taken from you because you refuse to listen to those who are practically effective and know how to protect and be genuinely proactive with our dollars
Your options ? Be green, and proactive , but ditch the extremists and their wasteful noisy distractions . Get back to the central issues of Education , Environmental and Health care- competence ! avoid the legislative extremes of the old reactionaries and be really radical for a change!

More power preoccupations substitute for declining influence ( after Santayana)
One of the most disturbing things about us as human beings is that we do often behave just like animals . The glass empty brigade will justify all kinds of disaster and ilhealth on such unholy excuses.
For those of us with an otherworldly view of the universe that recognises the limits of "animalistic determinism" ideas , we have to face the fact that even the most tangible God-botherer that we know of ----talked about us as though we were sheep .
He was a realist after all ; you can't talk credibly about love without being a realist as well . He was a prophetic realist as well. If you can't see the cliff on the end of the cul de sac you'll let others fall over - the blind leading the blind . what many in the media have been doing for years talking in reaction not in advance?
Jesus's great anger was for those who by developing their own version of whats good ( correctness - religious or political) stand in the way of what's better . The pharisees of his day were reactionaries - no good ideas of their own ; just defining themseleves in reaction to the traditions of their forefathers ( Solzinetizens point to the west )Standing in the doorways of the high moral ground but not " going in"
Which brings we to my reason for writing . Nothing is more obvious in limiting Australia's intellectual development over the last 30 years than the reactionaries in the media - short on ideas and still relucatant to admit to what's deeper and more sustainable than the quick fixes and excuses they pass out as "news" .
If they lived in the first years of communist Russia they would have lost their jobs and power as a result of the social dislocation caused by a failed reactionary response to the" sexual revolution" -
It took Russians only a few years to realise they were wrong to undermine marriage . Its going to take Western countries much, much longer .
At what cost? And what overly constricting
framework will they (as Santayana pointed out they would) impose on Australians as a reaction ( not as a form of metanoia)
What are the fanatical social reforners with a shallow shell of nothing to work on going on substsutue for social policy . "a technocolour yawn of nanny statements "?Another lawyers picnic like the one in palestine ?
Thus the media fail even to report clearly what family first means and are not aware that the alternative is more power, not more influence . The protection and preservation of the freedoms and ideas (therefore the culture) that have made this country great is at stake.

What sweet relief with dianne on ABC local radio today Jon feine
For a few brief moments we didn't have to hear the reactionary lefties droning on in a careless imprecise manner about how terrible western civilisation is and all the mistakes we have made- they didn't say that - they couldn't get away with that its just the mindset? Make up you minds before you are denied the good you have had and now take for granted? - before the west becomes east and a new inertia envelops .

The free everything up agreement. well we will --don't know about them ? We must trust someone. Why not someone big and powerful and successful . whose economic principles include proetection and subsidies for agriculture. They know what they are doing . Thats why they signed up an innocent party?
We are so clever!! Why didn't anyone else think of leaving the job of governance to the market before? Its a real win ! .
You have to have faith it seems
Trouble is , Mark Latham would then be right about overpayment because you don't have anything left to govern and you are getting paid more than enough not to do what you no longer need to do .
I hope you realise what you are saying about eco systems - they are monocultures are they ?
