Embracing Pauline Hanson : Comments

By Ian Cook, published 26/7/2016

We, people who disagree with her position like me, had the chance to embrace Hanson and the people she represents twenty years ago and we didn't. I'm hoping that we don't miss this opportunity again.

AC: I think I heard it on one of radio shows I've watched on youtube, and it may have even been Alex Jones.

Careful, Careful. Poirot will be accusing you of Plagiarism in her next post.

The title of this article truly scares me "Embracing Pauline Hanson"

Apparently someone got there already - according to a July 21, 2016 article:

"Former politician David Oldfield has denied explosive allegations made by Pauline Hanson that the two slept together on the first night they met.

Oldfield, who secretly established One Nation in 1997 with Hanson while working as a staffer for Tony Abbott, said Hanson's version of events in an upcoming SBS documentary were "fanciful" and "monstrously ridiculous"."

Pauline came to Townsville in 98, I think. I warned her about Oldfield then, then later the fellow that took his place. Both were out to undermine her Party for the Major Party's. I spoke to her a couple of months ago about that & to keep a sharp eye out for the same thing happening now.

& yes. I voted for her. Anyone but the two self-centred Major Party's or the disastrous Greens.

Here's some of the Research upon which my views of Pauline Hanson's supporters was based. I think it remains relevant, despite it concerning the initial period of One Nation's emergence.

(sorry if that bit of info ruined it)//

I had to look up who this Alex Jones bloke was. Turns out he's a Moon-Landing denier, the most obvious expression of shite-for-brains after Holocaust denial, vaccine denial and fluoride denial.

Fifty bucks says he nicked the line off somebody a lot brighter than himself.

So yeah, that did totally ruin it for me. Thanks for raining on my parade, AC.

Hey Toni,
Yeah that's the guy.
I had a hunch that extra bit of info wasn't going to help things...
Yes, I'd bet he pinched the saying from someone else too.
