Well, like most bloggers (hate to call myself that because it sounds so uncool, man) I think it would be nice if the one I write for got more comments, although I am also quite content with the idea nobody is reading or if they are they couldn’t give […] Continue Reading…

Darlene Dines Out With Super Sweet Janet
As I’ve been engaged with other things of late (“I’ll have what you’re having, Anna Nicole Smith”), I thought I would dig into my oeuvre this week (also known as the crap on my C drive) to see what hasn’t been inflicted on Ambit Gambit’s reader(s). What follows […] Continue Reading…

Courier Mail plays Sancho Panza
Yesterday I commented on Lawrence Springborg’s Quixotic attempt to amalgamate the Queensland Liberal and National Parties. Today it seems only fair to comment on his accomplice – The Courier Mail. This morning’s front page of the CM runs with the headline “Anderson backs plan for merger” as […] Continue Reading…

Springborg’s Pineapple Party defies the federal election result
Lawrence Springborg’s quest to merge the two non-Labor parties in Queensland is Quixotic in the full sense of the word. Not only is it doomed to failure, but it is misguided and represents a disconnect with reality. Nothing demonstrates this more than the results of the last […] Continue Reading…

Nanabour Branch of the ALP – Part 2 – The Preselection
Since the author only admits to being an ALP member in impolite company and when appearing on our national broadcaster (“Yes, John Howard is just horrible, Phillip, sweetie”), it was with much courage and alcohol that she once again braved a local branch to find out what the party […] Continue Reading…

Nanabour Branch of the ALP: Three Hours of Your Life You Will Never Get Back
There has been a lot of discussion lately about what’s wrong with the ALP. Some say it’s the leader, others opine that policy is the problem, while right-wing bloggers and boys in suits just have a good old chuckle at the comrades and the mates. ALP hackette, Darlene, […] Continue Reading…

Osama’s ‘Gift’ – he votes Republican
According to reports of work by John Kerry’s pollster, Stan Greenberg, Osama bin Laden’s tape helped George Bush’s re-election. Without denying that Greenberg has a vested interest in promulgating this theory, it is probably true, because that was one of bin Laden’s aims.

Dubya stole this election too
Silly me. I assumed that there could be no way that Bush’s result in this election could be challenged, but there is. In the Florida election 2000 it was the voting machines with their hanging, dimpled and pregnant chads. This year it is the computerised voting […] Continue Reading…
