Just batsht insane dribble

I think Miranda Devine needs to be tested for Lysteria and other bat-borne diseases. It may go someway to explain her latest stringing together of words in a semi-coherent manner.

Devine starts off by telling the tale of Boris, the ruffle haired blonde slob Etonian mayor of Old London Town coming to the bike-borne rescue of a greenie besieged by armed girls. From there MD claims that anyone who doesn't see in black and white (like her and Boris) would have been paralyzed by indecision and not assisted said Greenie, and from there ... Rudd is like Howard in that he has refugee issues he's dealing with but, because TEH LEFT hated Howard they protested about it, and because Rudd is nominally of TEH LEFT, they don't.

???

It's just nutty.

Here's my fave bit

I would suggest that, when push comes to shove, it is muscular conservatives with the courage of their convictions, of either sex, who are of more use in dark alleys than wishy-washy leftists, or simply people who don't like to get their hands dirty, make a judgment call or risk unpopularity.

If you are worried that someone might think you are a violent, chauvinistic bully if you chase the girl gang, you're no use. If you want to examine the motives of the assailants to establish beyond a shadow of a doubt that they mean Franny Armstrong harm, and aren't just asking her to admire their big iron bar, you're no use. If you are a peacenik who avoids all confrontation, you're no use. If you are a post-modernist who believes there are multiple truths, you will be too confused to be of any use.

In this age of cowardly consensus, feigned reasonableness and radical tolerance, the middle ground has been sanctified, no matter how stark the choice between right and wrong. Few are willing to do the right thing because no one will agree what the right thing might be, because that would imply there is a wrong thing, which is supposedly the view only of right-wing extremists.

A) Muscular conservatives are needed in dark alleys. We need them in those alleys. Because TEH LEFT are no good in alleys.

B) TEH LEFT see armed girl gangs assaulting passers-by as just exhibiting their right to be female and packing heat apparently and TEH LEFT could not possibly step in.

C) Devine, who like the vast bulk of right wing themed writers in Oz, doesn't believe in Climate Change as being dangerously influenced by human activity. She has the fucking gall to whine about 'doing the right thing' when she, like the rest of her lamprey kin, advocate exactly the opposite when it comes to saving the planet.

Seriously Fairfax, why do you keep her on? Okay, the ratings, I get that. Fair-enough. Why is it then the righty types like her are allowed to present badly written illogical copy for print, while everyone else has to present balanced fact laden material? Just the ratings?

Sigh.

PS Miranda Devine is in her study googling herself. She sees the impact her latest screed has. She claps with glee and spins around on her chair. 'People are talking about me! I am validated'. Nice validation Devine. Nice.
