Name the issue and weed out the cringe element. When you sense its happening -challenge it.Sponsored by eforce. Good on you Aussies and Blogger for making it happen !journeymanjnoreply@blogger.comBlogger101100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049209.post-11116577181631004002009-08-03T23:37:00.000-07:002009-08-03T23:39:22.106-07:00

Remedies for distraught parents with bullied children, according to even our best psychologists last week, were given the name "impossible". The only answer which actually works is, I think ,the impossible one ; The one about "loving your enemies" . Jesus's words . You don’t believe me? Remember Martin Luther King? It was he who reminded a whole generation of angry Americans,who were provoked to

The challenge for "Thank God He's not there" to remain entertaining will revolve around the dangers of soft sell. Because guests on TGYH are clearly not warned ( who cares some will say - surely we need a break HEH!!!1 from the fearmongers ) about the dangers of promoting lifestyle choice under the guise of bottom line gags, the characterization is lost to cheap lifestyle gags and we wonder if

The ageing lefts intellectaul end point is a cul de sac and often a hole; a dark hole where the only light is on the way in . An awareness they have painted themselves in a corner . To go anywher after decades of reactionary positions means to become normal or even conservative - its frightening; a least for them The most recent example of the cringeing critics failure to agnowoldeg Pro hart's

If you find yourself cringeing when watching mum on PRIDE and PREDJUDICE don't woory you are not alone .rememberJohn Clesse in faulty towers - just plain embarrassing The point is to get over it - esp in your own family, so you can enjoy Christmas and not be overwhelmed by the dickensonian breadth of your relatives bad habits

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

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"

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

You news commentators often miss the key point . Take Umpires frustrations made worse by YOU and your noise!. I don't mind if the players disgagree with my decision as long as they don't say so while i'm trying to listen to the important noises. talk about daddydaycare.blogspot. stuff

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

Pauline Hanson is back. Those in the major parties cringe ---but that's not to their credit . They don't even notice they are doing it and that's a big big problem . Unlike the independants, they allow themselves to tow the party line - and what a bunch of easily led sheep they are over things like competition and environment policy ! see http://ourland3.tripod.com/battleground.htm.
