Nathan, SOG,
I am glad for you that you have decided to exercise your right not to listen to people with opinions that differ from yours. However, many, many more people will read and listen to Bolt, read the Telegraph and do all those things that you abhor. When sitting cloistered with your fellow left whingers, don't be surprised when the rest of the world disagrees with you. Posted by Shadow Minister, Sunday, 16 March 2014 8:07:39 PM

Shadow Minister,
The people who responded (over 600) on the Andrew Bolt - newspaper page, simply fought against each other. There was no rational or well researched debate. People can believe what they want - but it can be so difficult to get a simple message across to other people - when (left or right) people push a simplistic line - and people say things like Andrew Bolt "He represents the majority of Australians" or the hate Tony Abbott protests over the weekend. Where is the well educated debate? What about real action - that will change Australia for the positive? Actions speak louder than silly chit chat - that was my point from the start.

NathanJ,
Let's see: You didn't like the discourse on a Blog about Bolt, so you started a new discourse on a new Blog, and in your very first post say: "I won't read his opinions or watch his program ever again." It is clear that educated debate is not coming from you. Your mind was made up before you started. Continue with what you are doing, but don't be surprised when no one cares.

Talking about educated debate - the following link
provides a few thoughts: http://www.smh.com.au/federal-politics/political-opinion/andrew-bolt-trifled-with-the-facts-20110928-1kxba.html Free speech is not an unfettered right. It doesn't have to be balanced or fair but it should be factually accurate. Posted by Foxy, Monday, 17 March 2014 6:09:43 PM

SM>>Nathan, SOG,
When sitting cloistered with your fellow left whingers, don't be surprised when the rest of the world disagrees with you.<< SM, given I refute the “survival of the fittest” conservative doctrine you abide by, I do not make decisions on support along party lines. I have said many times that no major party represents my views. They both lie consistently and shamelessly. The only difference between them is their ability to manage our economy. Both are running down the wrong track but one is better at it than the other...which one....you choose. My issue is selective editing from the media, two sides, two different edits. So I rely on what I heard them say in opposition and what they say when in government. About your lot and one subject only....Coal Seam Gas.....O’Farrell said he believed land owners had the right of refusal to the Multinationals......in power, nothing changed. Abbott said the land owner had the right to choose who entered his property....in government he has not uttered a single syllable along that line......liars sport, and you defend them with your “let them eat cake” attitude...your like the picture of Dorian Gray tiger.
