For a moment I thought he was talking to/about Foxy. But it was indeed Josephus. But looking back through his posts, Josephus seems to be quite diligent in placing quotes ("") around those things he's, ahem...quoting. Unlike some.

But its true he doesn't always show the source of the quote or information. But then we see that a lot - for example claiming to have information from Spectator and then refusing to show its providence.

The more information that comes out about the Voice, the less likely it is to pass. But it reveals why the promoters of the referendum have been quite diligent and adamant that they won't reveal all the details. If they did reveal everything the referendum wouldn't stand a chance, unless they diluted its purpose beyond recognition.

Its been the problem for the government from day one. They need to walk a tight-rope between keeping the radical pro-Yes segments in the tent by holding out hope that their aims can be achieved while at the same time keeping those aims and the attempt to implement them secret from the voters. I think they're falling off the tight-rope.

Some people just don't get it.

No matter what explanations are provided (concerning
details on page 25) they will like Tony Abbott last
night on the 7.30 Report, they prefer to remain clueless.

Best to simply walk away. Hopefully the majority of
Australians have a greater capacity to sift the sheep from the
goats.

Those that don't have the capacity - generally won't
really matter in the sweep of history.

Reasons for voting YES:

. Ignorance of the consequences

. Deceitfulness about the consequences

. Feathering one's own nest

. Useful idiocy

Hi Foxy,

Its difficult to determine those few who are genuinely concerned, and are advocating a 'No' vote on that basis. from those like some on this Forum, who are simply driven by their own bigotry and racism, and will also vote 'No' because of that.

Dear Paul,

That's what I can't understand. The truth is out
there. All they need to do is walk into any book shop or
library and get the answers. The research is available.
Instead of simply repeating the lies and misinformation.
