Dear Paul,

I'm so glad that it was found - and all is well
again.

I have a picture that I carry in my wallet of
"Our Lady of Vilnius," the miraculous painting
that hangs in the "Gate of Dawn Chapel."
(Ausros Vartai). It was given to me after a friend's
trip to Lithuania - years ago.
I did lose it once - and panicked. But it also
was later found - all's well that ends well.

Aaand the NSW Liberals, to which Herr Fuhrer Abbott pledges allegiance, have been an exemplary lot haven't they ?

I always am amused by the waffle that the left whingers think passes at wit, repeating the same drivel against each right of center pollie, frequently punctuated with flights of fantasy or outright lies.

The reality is more what those that count think. Obama and the presidents of Indonesia, China, Korea, Holland etc are all full of praise for JB and TA where the relationships are stronger than, whereas Rudd, Carr and other labor airheads were the subject of ridicule.

SM,

"I always am amused by the waffle that the left whingers think passes at wit, repeating the same drivel against each right of center pollie, frequently punctuated with flights of fantasy or outright lies."

Now there's a classic!

Perhaps the contributors to this thread would like to indulge in a little of what Shadow Minister posts - and presumabably - believes is "true wit".

Here's an excerpt from another thread:

"You still haven't got to grip with the depth and hypocrisy of GREENS CORRUPTION.

You have Back handed Brandt,
Rip off Rhiannon,
Mendacious Milne,
Shifty Sarah HY,
Lying Ludlam,
Slippery Whish Wilson,

A complete bunch of double dealing phoneys."

and

"Just for you, if you haven't enough spittle on your monitor.

You have Back handed Brandt,
Rip off Rhiannon,
Mendacious Milne,
Shifty Sarah HY,
Lying Ludlam,
Slippery Whish Wilson,

A complete bunch of double dealing phoneys."

and

"A sorry rogues gallery of GREENS CORRUPTION.

Back handed Brandt,
Rip off Rhiannon,
Mendacious Milne,
Shifty Sarah HY,
Lying Ludlam,
Slippery Whish Wilson, and now
Pickpocket Parker."

and

"Back handed Brandt,
Rip off Rhiannon,
Mendacious, let's call everyone terrorists Milne,
Shifty Sarah HY,
Lying Ludlam,
ISIS are misunderstood Whish Wilson, and now
Pickpocket Parker.

A sorry rogues gallery of GREENS CORRUPTION."

........

Such witty dribble posted ad nauseam in the other thread.

You get my drift.

With "wit" like that, SM has every reason to chide fellow posters.

Lol!

Honk Honk!

Parrot,

Thanks for reminding us how to bring a troll to heel. You just repeat everything he says against him.

P.S. as you seem to be stalking me with a good finger wagging, but ignoring the troll, I assume by the way you are brown nosing him that agree with left whinge trolls but hate seeing them skewered.

SM,

I was on this thread before, and dropped back to see how it was toodling.

And I couldn't go past you deriding the "wit" of others - when your own is so...er...disappointing.
