In which, in lieu of a Sunday meditation, the pond considers the tweets of the onion muncher ...


The pond is over Jim Molan already, and over Akker Dakker, and so turned to the good news for the week ... with the onion muncher and good buddie Jim Molan rolled ... as recorded in the Graudian here ...

The pond maintains an interest in the onion muncher because of his eminent status at the top of the pond's banner ... and thus far the onion muncher has been diligent in his efforts to maintain his place ...

One noteworthy feat in his recent campaign is the way that while everyone else refers to it as the Warringah motion, the onion muncher is careful to call it the Rosehill Resolution ... as noted by SBS reporting here ...

The pond hasn't the faintest idea why the dissembling onion muncher feels the need.

Everyone knows it's just his proxy way of having a go at Malware ... with the counter-movement feeling the need to appropriate an indigenous name by calling it the Bennelong betrayal ... or some such thing ...

Of late the onion muncher has shown an unnerving willingness to conduct his assorted campaigns through twittering wittering tweets ...


Actually Ray, according to Fairfax here, Jim won some 10,000 plus first preference votes - that's all it takes to become a senator these days - and his bigger crime was being a bigot and refusing to apologise for his naked bigotry, as recorded by Fairfax here...


Sheesh, the Donald showing more sensitivity than bigoted old Jim Molan? How can that be? Never give in, never surrender, hey Jim Lightyear?

Wait a mo.

How did the pond end up discussing bigoted old Jim Molan?

Please, another onion muncher tweet ...


Oh dear Ray, must you mention the Chairman?

That reminds the pond of a recent story in Crikey about the fortunes of chairman Rupert and his minions (paywall protected) ...


Oh dear, and yet the future is in tree-killing, the reptiles and so the pond know it for a fact, and now to complete that little onion munching twitter burst the pond began with ...



Not to worry devoted Liberal party members, the benign party rulers kicked the can down the road for a good couple of years, so the party can remain genuinely undemocratic, for fear that raving ratbags of the onion muncher-Jim Molan kind might come to rule the roost ...

All that was left for the onion muncher were a few more consolation tweets ...



Well no with the greatest respect, that's just a screen cap, not a hot link, and the pond would rather drink acid than listen to you and Alan Jones have a chinwag.

But thanks, that's another catch-phrase the pond loves ... the monarchist knighthood man dressing himself up in the guise of the "Democratic Reform Movement" ...

Meanwhile, with private political lives all the go, the onion muncher has been a proper whirl on the social scene, as reported by the lizards of Oz ...



The funniest thing? The awkward grin of the onion muncher in the Australian Story promotion of the piece ...


Well that's a screen cap, and not a hot link, and besides the pond would rather pour acid in its eyes than watch Australian Story ... but as we're now fully in Days of Our Lives mode ...


And the funniest thing in that saga? Well it came with another story over at the news.com.au site with a quote ...

“I fell in love with her and I fell hard,” said Christine, who told Australian Story she had come to the “slow realisation” in her 30s that she was sexually attracted to women. “It hit me like a tonne of bricks and it was terrifying. It was something I just couldn’t control, it was such an overwhelming emotion.” 
“If I’d grown up in a bohemian environment, I probably would’ve come out at the age of 18 or 19, but I grew up in a family where your values were Menzies-era. “You couldn’t consider being gay, that wasn’t part of our world.”

And that's where the pond must leave the onion muncher and his chum Jim, still stuck back with Ming the Merciless in the 1950s, surrounded by picket fences and maintaining the rage ... 

It has to be said that the pond's Sunday meditations aren't what they once where. Where's the Pellist and the Jensenist conspiracies when they're needed ...

Never mind, time for the pond to head back to the future with the onion muncher and bigoted Jim...

    Have I ever mentioned, DP, that with every year that passes for us oldies a little bit more of one's world fades away ... Thinking of great Country/National Party leaders today (just to compare with the current dropkick) I couldn't remember Black Jack McEwen's name - now he would have been a terrific Sunday "meditation" or two in his day.

    But no, a Tones doesn't really do it (he never did) and nor do any of the lesser lights (and especially not the Petulent Peta who reckons that the video clips that Molan reposted are actually 'truthful Muslim violence' - sigh).
