The
Potent Green Fairies are back
I'll be damned: Absinth
is now legal
Personally, I'd rather
drink petrol, but I'm glad it's back. Gotta love anything which sends
the health nazis into a tizzy.

Bashing Fatty Adams - the saga continues.........
This is getting fun:
Professor Bunyip pummels
Fatty Adams' juvenile hate-america hysteria (see my post below).
And that's not all:
Got an e-mail from another aussie blogger about Fatty's latest idiocy.
Turns out Phillip may have really fucked up big time with this
latest column and will probably have some explaining to do. Hopefully,
we'll hear more developments on this very soon.

Adams: radio jock, writer and spineless hypocrite extraordinare
|
Back on the 18th of
September, I posted this:
Aussie readers:
be sure to listen to Late Night Live tomorrow
night: as part of his current insane obsession with the evils of
America, Adamski will be speaking to Washington Post columnist Charles
Krauthammer. Going on Phillip's past embarrasing performances against
Jeremy Rabkin and Daniel Pipes, Adams will ask idiotic questions, get
intellectually beaten to a pulp, then make pissy little comments after
his guest leaves.
My prediction proved
spot-on: Krauthammer - whilst polite and witty - made mincemeat of Adams'
juvenile questioning. Adams - whose intellectual prowess barely scrapes
in at the level of "dullard" - was incapable of making any coherent
argument in return, and has now - as I predicted - and as he always
does, insulted his guest after the show. Today's
column in The Australian is vintage Adams: childish anti-americanism:
high on patronising "america is evil" whinging, anti-Krauthammer
personal insults, and utterly devoid of any intellectual content.
Some selected quotes.....
A
COLUMN I wrote in the aftermath of September 11 had me attacked by the
froth-mouthed phalanx of right-wing pundits, the sound of whose fingers
hitting the keyboard recalls the thud of approaching jackboots.
As
expected, Washington is spiralling out of control - and Australia has
as much to fear from its powerful friend as it does from its putative
enemies.
In
evidence, let me introduce you to the wonderfully christened Charles
Krauthammer. It's a name worthy of Evelyn Waugh or Dickens. And it fits
its owner like a glove. An iron glove containing, yes, an iron fist.
For Krauthammer simultaneously evokes notions of a master race and massive
blows to the anvil.
To
describe Krauthammer as an apologist for the present regime does him
a disservice. For Krauthammer never apologises. He is the most hawkish
of the Bush chickenhawks.
In
words as percussive as shell bursts, Krauthammer said the US is dominant
not only militarily, economically and politically, but culturally.
(At
this point, Krauthammer informed me that his wife is Australian, as
though this would prove a comforting notion. My response was to wonder
whether Mrs Krauthammer had much of a say in family matters. If it echoes
the relationship between our respective nations, we should call in the
marriage guidance counsellors.)
If
Krauthammer seemed excessive, preposterous, self-parodic, the presidential
statement that followed showed a power elite in deadly earnest.
As
with Krauthammer's machinegun delivery, Bush's speech was as memorable
for its bad manners as for its message.
Come
back, Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger. All is forgiven. The future
of the world is now in the hands of some very dumb people. Republican
fundamentalists.
Aaron
Oakley responded in The Australian's comments section:
What
a steaming pile of manure.
How incredibly rich of Adams, throughout his life an apologist for assorted
totalitarian regimes, to evoke "the thud of approaching jackboots"
when describing the "phalanx of right-wing pundits" he criticises.
Adams bitter attack on Charles Krauthammer seems to be a result of Charles’
recent pounding of Adams into an intellectual pulp on Late Night Live.
Amen.
Adams - who holds
himself high as a flag-waver for sober humanist intellectualism - is naught
but a relentless hypocrite, intellectual coward and moral degenerate.
What a disgrace that this man is able to use taxpayer funds to spout his
adolescent tantrums, and how incomprehensible that NewsCorp pays him to
write this shit. Is this flea-brained Jabba the best the left in this
country has to offer?
