The politically correct ruling class takes Australia's first political
prisoners
In the early days of Pauline Hanson's ascendancy, when the media bosses,
their media whores and the PC class were in a permanent state of hysteria
over the Ipswich fish shop owner, a non-political person remarked to me that
the ruling class in a combined onslaught would destroy Pauline Hanson. I
agreed heartily. There was no way they would let an ignorant, impertinent, low class,
uneducated woman from a hick labouring class town stand up to them. I
thought, however, it would be a political assassination in the short term.
Contrary to expectations, Hanson and One Nation had a surprisingly long run.
Unfortunately, if it was not enough that the media sponsored stream of
unending distortions, lies, and political bigotry and thuggery were
destroying her, Pauline Hanson added to her demise by some very silly
decisions and behaviour. Alas, it's a simple fact that Pauline Hanson never
had the ability, political acumen, and temperament to head up a political
party that was going to be a real threat to the purveyors of Political
Correctness. Her great quality was that she had the courage to stand up
undaunted and
express the frustrations of a great cross section of the oppressed
Australian public. Things may have been different if she had realised this.
In the event, it was not to be and the slow inevitable assassination via the
media took place.
One cannot help being impressed with the tenacious ruthlessness of those
of the ruling class who possess the real power to promote or destroy. It was
quite clear that these people were not satisfied they had achieved the
political destruction of Hanson. With an insatiable vindictiveness they went
about trumping up charges of fraudulently registering a political party and
falsely claiming 'almost a million dollars from the Electoral Commission'.
It came as no surprise that Pauline Hanson was found guilty on both accounts.
After all, the technical misdemeanour of incorrectly registering a political
party (at worst, that's what it is) will lead automatically to the second
charge. But it did
come as a surprise that Chief Judge, Patsy Wolfe, of the District Court
barged on and
sentenced her to three years jail.
Really, what can one say...? That it is a sick joke, a farce, that these
people can't be real...? These and many other such comments will be uttered
by millions and they won't have the slightest
effect on those people who are responsible. The oppression of ordinary
people, the bigotry and the abuse of political power, the unconscionable
media reporting....it will all go on.
This has been a good year for the politically correct ruling class. They
have achieved the media assassination of the Governor-General, Dr Peter
Hollingworth, and the imprisoning of an ordinary Australian who dared to stand up to them
and express the concerns and frustrations of voiceless Australians.
Chief Judge, Patsy Wolfe, said in her summing up that Pauline Hanson's
action had affected confidence in the political process. Give us a
break...!! One has to wonder whether shameless audacity, stupidity or
delusion provokes members of the ruling elite to make such comments. What
she means, of course, is that members of the ruling class are very much put
out by the impertinence of a Pauline Hanson.
The rest of us lost confidence in the political process long ago. And as
long as effective power remains in the hands of the politically correct,
there will be no confidence in people like Patsy Wolfe. Well, who doesn't
know that such people gain their positions as a reward for their fidelity to
the stipulated dogma?
