The Rudd government is attempting to build bridges with Islamic communities because of angst in the judiciary over the Howard government's terrorism laws. The legal community has "widespread reluctance" to support the legitimacy of the counter-terror laws. There was a political war between the Howard government and the judiciary over this, but under Rudd, it looks like the judiciary has won.

One of the severe flaws in our system of government and law, is the common law system, which is effectively a rule by lawyers. Courts under the disguise of interpreting the law, make a vast body of law. This is known as case law. Where there is silence about the law in a statute (made by parliament), the courts fill it in. The High Court even decides the meaning of the Constitution. As far as I can see, nothing in the Constitution gives them this power (my opinion, all lawyers of course disagree.)

The failure to support terror laws, any laws restraining immigration/illegal aliens, is a common failure of the rule of lawyers across the West. We have a big problem here, so deep I believe that it cannot be solved within our existing system. If we can build a new Nordic society somewhere in Russia, let us not make the mistake of giving so much power to lawyers.

The mighty Hereward has forwarded to me the article "Fun, Fearless, Female : The Role Model Morph," The Advertiser March 1st 2008, for comment. It's the standard text: our young females don't have homemakers as role models, but instead follow power players such as Hillary Clinton. And what a role model to follow! Just go to google and type in "Clinton Bodies" and enjoy. People like Hillary are said to represent "their vision". What a vision!

Children have been put second or third on the list after; career, career, career. I say; enjoy it while it lasts. Beyond anything else, this selfish pursuit of career and infertility will doom us. Radical Islam will win by outbreeding us. Then kiss women's rights goodbye.

Oh, I've heard it before. I have to work to pay off the house, the car, give my pet child a good education. This is the apologies from women who have at least had children. But generation Y seem to not want to breed at all. They are the ultimate pawns of capitalism. But in the coming ecological and economic apocalypse, they too will disappear. Their existence completely depends upon the tit of technological society and without its comforts, they would not even be able lift a hoe to plant food.

The "fun" and "fearless" world is going to be replaced by a world of frugility and fear. And in such a world, Hillary Clinton will not be a role model. These sort of people will be swept away by the tide of the economic-environmental breakdown of modernity.

Headlines across the world were made by two Australian medical academics who said in the Medical Journal of Australia that there should be a "baby levy" in the form of a tax on babies to save the planet. These academics do not carry their thought through to it's logical conclusion. If babies increase the use of resources, what about migrants, the greatest source of population increase in Australia? Of course, it is not politically correct to say that because immigration is the West's sacred cow.

An article in the Daily Mail (21.11.07) tells the tale of a woman who was sterilised to "protect the planet". She believes that having children is selfish. But she has a much nicer life style, barren, going away on weekend trips, as well as a holiday to that Mecca for the left, South Africa. This use of carbon is justified, she believes, as she is vegan and reducing her carbon footprint by combating over-population. No sweetheart, I am afraid that it is not enough. You are still using too many resources relative to Africans. Only by stopping living can you greenies really help save the planet! Could the left and greenies show us the lead in this! In the end, Darwin and natural selection will have it's day.

Enlivened by the victory of ear wax eating PM Kev Rudd, the left are asserting themselves. Apparently they are and have been petitioning The Australian for the dismissal of journalist Janet Albrechtsen. Now I like Janet. She is a nice smart good-looking girl with the right source of conservative values - and she is also a target of the left. You see, the left hates free speech because their black hearts are fundamentally totalitarian. Look what they did in the late 90's at the Hanson rallies. Yes, they are still out there, growing stronger by the day. Smug and arrogant, thinking that they hold the high moral ground. So for a first step, support Janet by sending an email or letter to The Australian.

The UN declares it cannot afford to feed the world, in that case the UN should tell the third world, do not have the extra 2.5 billion children by 2050 we cannot feed them.
