Australia moves towards an election federally. And the director of the Liberal Party infuriates me, asking me for money to support his AGW hucksterism that isn't as bad as the ALP one. It still is not good policy.
Today, 25th Sept 2021 I carry fake news
The fake news comes from a left wing site called "The Hill"
In the article on the Arizona draft Audit into 2020 election fraudulently given Biden, we are told there were no accidents and that a simple vote count shows Biden won. However, the simple vote count does not show that at all. It shows that the voter fraud was wilful and deliberate. It shows that the parties behind the fraud covered their tracks. Now for the parts of the audit that have been opposed. A check of signatures. The system data showing when and how votes were cast. That will take longer because the investigation has been impeded.
Canada loses another election
Trudeau rewarded for COVID failure. Who will be the next conservative leader? Will the next conservative leader have different policies to Trudeau? Why was PPC denied a place in leader's debate when they qualified on all criteria?
My name is David Daniel Ball I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.
I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.
I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. I had reported the issue responsibly and had not known I'd blown the whistle. The embarrassed left wing government had responded by imposition of a nationwide ban on the use of peanut butter in canteens, despite failing to address the issue of peanut allergy appropriately.
I've been de-platformed on Facebook and twitter despite not being an activist. Twitter did not like me asking for Obama to face justice in 2011. FB gave no specific reason for removing me following Jan 6th 2021 in Washington DC where a policeman killed an unarmed woman, so a crowd would know he was in control.
https://voiceddb.locals.com/post/1018405/intro-to-locals-for-the-conservative-voiceA successful withdrawal was what was engineered at Gallipolli, where, over three days troops pulled out of defended positions and left on ships .. nobody died. That was war. Nobody was left behind. Because of the failure, WW1 was prolonged another two and a half years, Russia collapsed etc etc. The price of failure was big. But the retreat was a success. In contrast, Biden's retreat was utter failure in Afghanistan.
Editorial on Covid policy failure
It is apparent COVID policy is political, not health related. However health advice has been political and not health related. Public health has been corrupted. Media has failed. Judiciary is corrupt. Defence is incompetent. The thin blue line has been cut. And, elder abuse is apparent from the Presidential office through to the ordinary NYC retirement home. On the plus side, there is an emerging possibility of an empty gesture securing the white house for womyn on behalf of one raised in Canada. Dan Andrews' lockdown has cancelled AA meetings. Go the beers. Playgrounds have been shut down state wide and even a curfew has been re-imposed. There is no science showing any such measure addresses COVID, but we know it allows the government to assert authority.

Editorial Biden's Afghan failure culminated from Obama's Afghan lies
Afghanistan is in flames as Biden begins bombing runs on terrorists as he seeks to negotiate with them. US soldiers have been killed after a strategic error left an exposed airport the only means of Americans and their allies to flee. Biden says those that remained behind wanted to, after fleeing Afghans clinging to a wing and fuselage of an aircraft plummet to their deaths. After Biden had said the Afghan government would stand following US withdrawal. US left behind billions of dollars of weapons Chicago gangs look on with shock and awe. The Taliban will not use a fleet of Blackhawk helicopters. China will.
So who is responsible for the failure? According to Biden, the buck stops with him, and he views it as a Dunkirk like success, when he is not looking at his watch waiting for mourning to end of soldiers that died in his service. Biden also feels any mistake was made by Donald Trump as NK begins nuclear weapons work. The US military have included critical junior officers in their lists of personal pronouns for enemies. What is a personal pronoun for a failed President?
Editorial on God In answer to Dinesh Dsousa's article
The God the atheists refute is not real, but is a ridiculous, impossible figure. God is real. God as He is revealed in the Bible is a fact. However, as ridiculous as the atheists arguments are, they are instructive. God made a bridge He could not cross (man's rejection of Him). God bridged that gap with Jesus. Thing is, atheists don't believe that that gap is real.
In my Sermon on a Miracle I describe how God gave a childless woman who could not bear children, prayed for children, family. He did that. And he did not use supernatural measures.
God is real. God does the impossible. God is not subject to our demands. God answers prayer. Sometimes bad people prosper for a time. All those statements are true.
God is worthy of praise. Atheists don't see it, but they have countless examples of it, from their own lives to the works of those they admire. In the Revelations of the Holy Spirit I underscore and outline some of what God does that even atheists call for.
We need god, but even in a world without God, there is a need for Him.

Don't give up on hope. I joke about young people not knowing what it would be like to be true Richmond Tigers supporters, after Tigers won their first grand final in some thirty five years. So that eight year olds might think it is too easy to be a Tiger supporter and expect things will happen, as they magically did today against a great South Australian team. Adelaide Crows had led on the first quarter, but were shut down in the second quarter where they went without a goal, conceding seven consecutive goals before scoring another. Melbourne peoples are proud of their AFL teams. Over a hundred thousand went to watch the match at the MCG. Meanwhile, ARL are giving away tickets for the ARL grand final. I don't know who is playing tomorrow, but I know the headline half time song is for SSM. Melbourne should win that too, unless the league has booted them or something.
James Bolt has highlighted corporate tax rates. Trump is cutting US to 20%. Meanwhile Australia has one of the highest rates in the OECD. Australia has performed terribly, fiscally since the union campaign against Work Choices gifted the senate to ALP and cross benches in 2007. The public have not trusted sensible government since.

Greens are agonising about exploiting a storm that makes their abysmal policies look bad. South Australia has blacked out, but South Australians are a resilient mob. I have seen joke pictures of a guy in a tinny checking soil samples and produce in over five feet of water. A reminder that dams are floor mitigating and people suffer when insane environmental policies opposing plant food reign.
Bad Government in Victoria is evident too. Dan Andrews public holiday has killed many traditions around what once was a half day. Dandenong Markets remained open in defiance of Andrews. But they will close for Melbourne Cup. Priorities. Anyway, Sydney is likely to win AFL, and Melbourne the ARL. Sydney has the better of the deal. AFL is a great sport.
Queensland's premier is being lauded because the press can't support a conservative. But she has done nothing worthwhile to deserve it.
Meanwhile in the US, Hillary's lies go to her credit for her supporters. A guy has been arrested for creating voting tickets for some seventeen people, including the dead. One dead guy fought in WW2 and apparently really is what some would call stand up. The Democrat supporter who wanted to vote for Hillary seventeen times may not have done anything illegal, as he hadn't yet voted. An electronic system of voting could defeat such fraud, but it would have to sacrifice a secret vote principle so as to be verifiable. And why not sacrifice the secret vote? We have already given up freedom of speech.

Among the Australian Liberal Party, there is a call for unity following the utter betrayal by Malcolm Turnbull. It is very important that the things the Libs do well are not lost with the self promotion of Turnbull. Policy has not changed a lot with the leadership. Turnbull is a great communicator and is clearly showing the confusion in head office. But there is an opportunity that should not go begging. We need Work Choices. We need to remove corruption from Union leadership. We need to secure free trade agreements. With a leadership more similar to the ALP, we probably expect they will say one thing and do another. That should secure support from the independents, except Xenophon who will stand by the Greens.

Hong Kong's umbrella is raised for freedom. Brave democracy activists are standing for what they believe in. Islamic radicals note, they are doing it right and have respect around the world. The Chinese administration, that is hardline communist, fear them. Just like last time, they may kill them. Back during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, after tanks of the Peoples Liberation Army rolled over protestors, and many were jailed and reeducated, Australian PM Bob Hawk spoke with Deng Xiaoping in private and pointed out that many of those radicals the Chinese government didn't want could come to Australia. Deng asked "How many millions do you want?" Even now, an estimated sixty million Chinese nationals are prepared to immigrate to Australia. Because of bad governance by the ALP, Australian land is not developed to support that many people. A Bradfield scheme would need to water central Australia. It can be done. Possibly China would fund it, if a deal could be struck with a future democratic Chinese government. God speed the Democracy Umbrella protests.
Dear Aunt Tracy gave advice to Isis regarding names being overtaken by public disasters. Aunt Tracy was eight when the cyclone devastated Darwin. Beforehand, people would say what a lovely name she had. Afterwards, she was introduced to Gough Whitlam. He pretended she didn't exist. She could have been called Darwin for all he cared. And that is a tip for Isis. Choose a name which no one will notice in your neighbourhood. Your locals who run in fear of Isis will openly weep in thanks at Kabul, Mecca or Baghdad. In recent research it has been discovered Aliens have been swimming in our water. Or could have in the past. Half the world's water is older than the formation of the Sun. Maybe in time to come we will be able to work out what the parent star was like, if there was only one. NRL officials deny their organisation is run by women. When asked who was the best and fairest player over the entire season, they said they couldn't decide. Gosford Anglican's chief minister/priest/acolyte of Gaia has denounced the Abbott administration as fascist because they don't drown visitors or subject them to piracy. Did a switch in temperature gauge result in heat reading upgrade? The great heating scare beginning circa '96 corresponded with a new temperature measuring system. Margo Kingston being awarded a Doctorate in Creative Practice is a better deal than Roberta Flack being given a Doctorate in Musicology. Roberta has real talent. Margo is confused by facts and angry at myths. Sorry, Dr Kingston is confused by facts and angry at myths.
Media Watch missed a dangerous issue of ABC siding with terrorists. Media watch is just like Dr Kingston. Confused by facts and angry at myths. US has named the ten most wanted terrorists. Buddhists from Myanmar command respect against terrorists by fighting them in traditional ways not followed by the Umbrella democracy protestors. Terror raids in Melbourne by federal and Victorian police are not related to last week's stabbing of two police officers by a young ISIS devotee.
Ministers are using the budget blow out to address the debt emergency. Something needs to cut through the ALP and PUP obstructionism. Palmer might not be aware, but to run a business effectively profits need to exceed expenses. The Maritime Union has used stand over tactics to steal three million dollars? What else? Union corruption has been fostered by the ALP and must be stopped. Newman's government is on track to be re-elected, according to polls. The Whitlam government history has been written by losers. The sad truth is an inept but corrupt administration cost Australia significantly and still does so. Julie Bishop stymies a super ministry for Scott Morrison. There is no pressing need for one. But ALP supporters are keen to claim division in government ranks.

It is hard for some people to know what is right. Very bad for an elected leader to not know. Mr Abbott shows good judgement with a firm grasp of conservative values, but the ALP seem bereft of talent when comparing Shorten and Albanese. It has taken time, but finally a point of difference is emerging between the two ALP wannabees. Shorten had a thought bubble about quotas, expanding the female quota and creating a quota for gay and lesbian politicians, race, capacity. Albanese doesn't feel quotas should be expanded beyond the one applied to females in seats of office. There are many outstanding people available to the ALP, but it is doubtful they will be promoted by quota. But equity in office doesn't seem to be a high priority to focus reform right now. People drown off the Indonesian coast line and Abbott is castigated .. he has only turned around two boats since coming to office.
Media Watch have finally found bad science. Not AGW alarmism, Media Watch is fine with the hysteria. Media Watch disparages the scientist who claims that he has found alien life forms in the atmosphere of Earth. Chief indicator to Media Watch that that science is bad was that it was reported in News.com papers. In fact, the science was flawed, but falsifiable, like science should be .. unlike AGW which is more faith driven.
But the quandary of the moment good people are wrestling with is Islamo Fascism. In Kenya, Islamic leaders have denounced the murderous cross dressing terrorists. In Pakistan, they appear to have senior government roles. Over 80 people who sat down for lunch in Pakistan were murdered by bombs designed to maim. They are Christians who were having lunch after a worship service. They aren't wealthy, but they support an orphanage, give aid to the poor and elderly and do what people in communities do .. like eat lunch. But in the aftermath of the explosions they are denied healthcare. Islamo Fascism has spread since Nazis modernised the Egyptian armed services following WW2. The UN has entrenched terrorism against Israel. Israel is the only safe place for Islamic peoples. Meanwhile the UN endorses the lynching of Jewish peoples everywhere in the world. In such times, what is a leader to do?
