Steven,
Most cases like this get settled before they get to court tribunals and such. I cite the case in QLD about a 60 year old sign about a local sports ground named after a local player which included the the nickname "N".(one complainant) There were complaints about 'c**n' cheese.(several complainants ) The point here is the 'reasonable man' principal. in the 'N' case the sign was amended. In the 'C', dismissed. Where was your out rage there? I contend your outrage is over the top so I ask why? The answer is already given. It seems to me that the judge used this test and arrived at a sensible compromise. As for the “'uber' conspiracy “ Your words not mine. I see no “conspiracy” like I said in many arguments before you have adopted line and verse of the Israeli spin. Many of your topics tend to have the same link/under current. Of course it implies censorship. FOS is a subjective entitlement. There are clear cases where Jewish newspapers advertisers in the US boycotted a news paper for one comment that criticised an Israeli action. And a Community TV network because one speaker on one current affairs program once was pro Palestinian was attacked in Washington to remove their subsidy because the station refused to make a pro Israeli program. (isn't that PR activism censorship?). Israel's whole 'homeland' issue was based on PR. NB I don't favour either side. Censorship exists the question is was this judgement excessive....not to me (full stop exclamation mark) The absence of one extreme doesn't automatically imply the opposite. That would be a 'uber' conspiracy! Posted by examinator, Friday, 8 May 2009 12:50:57 PM

PS
Even the above post was censored by OLO because in contained the black derogitory word even though it was in context the other word was 'Coon Cheese' Clearly the issue is proportion and in your argument your proportion in my oppinion is skewed i suspect because of your bias.

Ginx, I suggested that you read all my posts to get the 'big picture' but you retorted with 'I don't need to do one damn thing'. Don't you want to have all the information at hand before making your judgement or is it just that your opinions are fixed in stone and don't anyone dare point you elsewhere? Talk about showing weakness!
If you could have actually read some of my past posts instead of being the little rebel that won't be told what to do, you would have seen that I have, on many occasions, posted opinions. But you wouldn't want to admit that, would you? That doesn't show strength either. But I don't think that you'd get that. Posted by Austin Powerless, Friday, 8 May 2009 6:50:10 PM

Peter Jackson is remaking "The Dambusters" movie.
In the original one of them had a dog called "N", the word was said 22 times. Do you think, Examinator, they'll use this little four legged character under its original name? Would a case be presented about the word or history? Must say, when I moved to Oz a few years ago I was horrified about the cheese name. Posted by Jewely, Friday, 8 May 2009 6:51:32 PM

Former..S&L/Regulator:..Absolutely A Banking Bailout Coverup
Complete transcript http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/04032009/transcript1.html Full interview video is here http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/04032009/watch.html There’s so much information,..you simply have to read or watch the entire thing. Some/snippets: BILL MOYERS:Yeah...Are you saying that Timothy Geithner,the Secretary of the Treasury,and others in the administration,with the banks,are engaged in a cover-up to keep us from knowing what went wrong? WILLIAM K.BLACK:Absolutely. BILl:You are. WILLIAM:Absolutely,because..they are scared to death...They’re scared to death of a collapse.They’re afraid that if they admit the truth,that many of the large banks are insolvent. They think..Americans..are a bunch of cowards,and that we’ll run screaming to the exits...And we won’t rely on deposit-insurance.And, by the way,you can rely on deposit-insurance..And it’s foolishness...All right? Now,it may be worse than that...You can impute more cynical motives...But I think they are sincerely..just panicked about,“We just can’t let the big/banks fail.”..That’s wrong. MOYERS:But what might happen,at this point,if in fact they keep from us the true health of the banks? BLACK:Well,then the banks will,as they did in Japan,..either stay enormously weak,or Treasury will be forced to increasingly absurd giveaways of taxpayer money. We’ve seen how horrific AIG—and remember,they kept secrets from everyone. MOYERS:A.I.G...did? BLACK:..What we’re doing with../?—..no,Treasury and both administrations...The Bush/administration and now the Obama administration..kept secret from us what was being done with AIG. AIG was being used secretly to bail out..favored banks like UBS and like Goldman-Sachs...Secretary Paulson’s firm,..that he had come from being CEO...It..got the largest amount of money. $12.9 billion.And they didn’t want us to know that...And it was only Congressional pressure,and not Congressional pressure,by the way,on Geithner,but..Congressional pressure on AIG. Where Congress said,..“We will not give you a single penny more unless we know who received the money.”..And,..you know,..when he was Treasury Secretary,Paulson created a recommendation group to tell Treasury..what they ought to do with AIG...And he put Goldman/Sachs on it. MOYERS:Even though Goldman/Sachs had a big vested stake. BLACK:Massive stake...And even though he had just been CEO of Goldman/Sachs before becoming Treasury-Secretary...Now,..in most stages in American history,that would be a scandal of such proportions that he wouldn’t be allowed in civilized society....

bilderburger details of this years adgenda are being revealed..[last years was to drop the price of petrol
http://www.propagandamatrix.com/articles/june2008/061008_secret_agenda.htm
[to keep the peasents in their auto,mobile[cash-cows]..anyhow on the adgenda so far is
The future of the US dollar and US economy:..The plan..to deceive millions of savers and investors who believe the hype about the supposed up-turn in the economy...They are about to be set up for massive losses and searing financial pain in the months ahead.
The bank“stress tests”now being conducted by Washington are little more than a shameless hoax:..Based on the irrational assumption that the economy won’t get as bad as it already is!
Bilderberg is quietly subsuming that US unemployment numbers will hover around 14% by the end of this year,..far higher than the official numbers released by the US government...[aimed at impoverishing the fast growing middle classes,into serfs renting and working for food]
Depression or a prolonged stagnation?..(Stated as such in the pre-meeting booklet sent out to attendees.)
Bilderberg is looking at two options:Either a prolonged,agonizing depression that dooms the world to decades of stagnation,decline,and poverty ... or an intense-but-shorter depression that paves the way for a new sustainable economic world order,with less governmental/sovereignty.
There will be a final push for the enactment of Lisbon Treaty,
One of the Bilderberger planned moves is to use a whispering campaign in the US media suggested that Ganley is being funded by arms dealers in the US linked to the US military.
