Hey Julia, Want Ya Shoe Back?

If it wasn’t embarrassing enough that Australia’s Prime Minister was humiliatingly dragged from an Australia Day awards ceremony due to Aboriginals behaving badly yesterday. The protestors are now threatening to put the shoe she lost in the tussle on eBay. Activist Pat Eatock who is in possession of the size 36 blue heel said “She can’t have it, this is going on eBay,” she said. “We are going to see if we can get some money for the (tent) embassy.” In typical double standards, authorities say they will not lay any charges on the aborigines who terrorized people (including the PM and the opposition leader) gathered in The Lobby restaurant.  Pathetic. “White” man moons the Queen and he’s treated like a friggin criminal. How can we call this country a democracy when we kowtow to minorities in so called “fear” of being called racist.

Psst Tent embassy is an area in Canberra that for 40 years has been occupied by Aboriginals protesting land rights.

Happy Australia Day

Happy Australia Day to all the Aussie loons. Despite it being 41 degrees, the Loon is heading to the Perth foreshore for fireworks tonight!!!

Psst I’m still scratching my head over why Geoffrey Rush was announced Australian of the Year? Hmm, I was expecting Julia Gillard to give it to herself!!!

Happy Australia Day

It’s Australia Day down under which means a day off, a few cold ones and fireworks. While we kick back and party please spare a thought for our Diggers overseas, all the flood victims and people doing it rough.

Where did the flag go?

Australia Day wouldn’t be complete without a little controversy to get us hot and bothered. Google have been left to “please explain” why they omitted the Aboriginal flag from the winning Australia day “doodle” by 11 year old Jessie Du from NSW. On her original entry she had included the Aboriginal flag but the image that eventually appeared on Google’s homepage has been mysteriously edited. No people, Google aren’t being racist, anti Aboriginal, politically incorrect, they are merely having copyright issues. Seems the copyright of the Aboriginal flag design belongs to Australian artist Harold Thomas and he refused to accept the “pittance” they were offering to pay him to use it. It’s copyrighted? Who knew?

Before and after.
