By Julie Bishop, published 4/10/2012

A United States that is self-sufficient in energy production has the potential to affect the globe’s geo-strategic balance, particularly with regard to the Middle East and Europe.

"Sustainability visionaries only hate Women who have more then one child."

I rest my case.

Rest what case?

We already KNOW.

Give us a break.

I am interested in why Julie Bishop, as a member of the Coalition and a front bencher, continues to write articles on OLO?
None of the other MPs in either of the main parties do this and I am puzzled as to her motives.
Re Cheryl. I under stand that he/she is actually a man and wonder why the subterfuge?
Nothing that is said by someone hiding under a gender non de plume, can be taken as serious or worth reading. perhaps you should give up now.

Gee, being criticised for using a non de plume on OLO is a first. Poor old KAEP might be off medication, but what's your excuse 'Le Page' apart from personal attacks?

Your sole contribution, apart from a brief soliloquy questioning why Julie Bishop wrote this article (why shouldn't she?) is the astounding claim that fracking causes earthquakes.

What we have here is a classic anti-everything stance: no argument, no supported counter claim, no internal validity, just self referential youtube references and the like. This is anti-intellectualism at its best (or worst).

Let me give you one more example of the type of 'infection' bedevilling public discourse in Australia.

Dick Smith's heavily re-edited magazine Aussie Grown Foods fell out of my copy of The Australian today. It's heavily edited because originally it defamed the CEO of News Corp.

Many of the stories are a 1950s fantasy of a boy who wants to turn the country back to when Menzies was in power. It's a psychological scream for help from an ageing babyboomer. I'd be interested to know what others think.

It makes the astonishing claim that Australia's population will reach more than 100 million by 2100 and almost one billion in 2200. This is utter BS. Who makes up this stuff?

I can guarantee you that the Australian Government is now looking at population DROP after 2050.

The Dick Smith insert is a fear campaign pure and simple and its shows that a fool and his money is easily parted.

Ahem, Robert LePage, I agree, fancy someone taking on a (false) gender non de plume and expecting to be taken seriously.

(Excuse me, while I attend to my moustaches)

: )
