The reds under our beds  

Pauline Hanson | AAP

1 hour 26 minutes ago. It's time the nation stared rangas in their melanin-free-faces and said sorry. Tim Brunero leads the charge.

How many people have been hurt? How many people have been irreversibly scared? How many have turned to drugs and welfare dependence to salve their wounds? Tim Brunero

 
 

Why Peter Hore is a bloody good bloke  Comments

Peter Hore | AAP

6/08/2008 9:19:00 AM. Serial pest Peter Hore has been hammered across the media, including right here on LIVENEWS.com.au. Tim Brunero thinks all that criticism is misplaced.

Peter Hore clearly has a dream. And need I remind anyone that this country was built on dreams? Tim Brunero

The Serial Pest is a joke, but so is the NRL  Comments

Peter Hore | AAP

5/08/2008 9:20:00 AM. Andrew Moore is just dying to know how this serial imbecile Peter Hore hasn’t been banned from attending rugby league games long before his dangerous act of lunacy last night?

He’s obviously loony tunes... and so is the NRL for NOT having banned the moron for life before now... Andrew Moore

Why is Sydney so stab happy?  Comments

Knife | Getty

4/08/2008 2:12:00 PM. No matter which way you look at the stats there are far too many people getting stabbed in our biggest city. Jesse Perez asks why.

Taking a brisk stroll down the George St strip on Saturday night might give you an idea. It also might give you a painfully sharp piece of metal lodged inside your cranium. Jesse Perez

Taking the RSL out of RSL clubs is madness  Comments

Ingleburn RSL

1/08/2008 8:15:00 PM. Suggestions that RSL clubs need to modernise, by dropping the 'RSL' from the name, are ludicrous, according to Chris Smith.

I don’t know how many calls I’ve taken from listeners, young and old, who have welcomed the growing awareness of Australia’s involvement in war and our diggers’ heroic efforts. Chris Smith

ShineGirl: Hillsong at it again  Comments

Shiny lips | Getty

1/08/2008 4:30:00 PM. Those wacky singing bible-thumpers over at Hillsong are at it again - targeting a new group of vulnerable young women. Tim Brunero explains.

The program’s webpage is full of the kind of self-development guff Anthony Robbins would be proud of – with slogans like: “A girl is a verb”. Tim Brunero

Women make bad drivers  Comments

Woman driving  | Getty

31/07/2008 10:12:00 AM. A recent survey has found that men think women are terrible drivers, and Chris Smith reckons they're right.

Have you noticed that women can always sleep in the passenger’s seat. Not men, unless we’re full as a boot! Chris Smith

Terminating trans fats: Arnold gets tough

29/07/2008 4:00:00 PM. California Governor Arnold Schwarzengger has introduced a bill removing trans fats from restaurants. When Jesse Perez talked to the Governator, he got more than he bargained for. (Aural mischief Jesse Perez)

I’m with Arnie. It’s time to target trans fats for termination. The trans-fats freeze is coming. Jesse Perez

Rugby league is being let down by clowns  Comments

Frank Pritchard | AAP

29/07/2008 8:28:00 AM. Frank Pritchard needs to be hauled over the coals for suggesting he'd happily walk out in his contract. Men like him and Sonny Bill are putting the whole game in jeopardy, according to rugby league commentator Andrew Moore.

Frank Pritchard is obviously another bloke with very little moral fibre. Even talking about happily breaking a contract shows you just what sort of bloke he is. Andrew Moore

Is Sonny Bill typical of his generation?  Comments

Sonny Bill Williams | AAP

28/07/2008 6:34:00 PM. Is Sonny Bill Williams, 22, just a typical example of the values of Generation Y? Chris Smith thinks he might be.

Do we have a generation just like him? They’ve had it all and they’ve got it right now - no waiting, no working. Chris Smith

Rugby league needs to rise above Sonny Bill  Comments

Sonny Bill Williams | AAP

28/07/2008 11:00:00 AM. Rugby league commentator Andrew Moore says the sport needs to rise above the tawdriness of SBW, Khoder Nasser, Danny Weidler and Todd Carney and focus on what makes the game great.

Surely just because Sonny Bill Williams has proved himself to be a complete coward and a sook doesn’t mean the sport if completely stuffed. Andrew Moore

There's no such place as Bei-shing  Comments

Beijing richshaws | Getty

6/08/2008 8:00:00 AM. If we're going to hear the word 10,000 times over the next two weeks, we may as well learn to pronounce it correctly, according to Chris Smith.

In Chinese, the name stayed exactly the same and most Chinese people are not even aware that some Westerners think that there’s been a name change. Chris Smith

Quit complaining and move to the country  Comments

Sydney traffic | Getty

4/08/2008 2:00:00 PM. If you can't handle the Sydney rat race you should stop whinging and think about a tree change, according to Chris Smith.

Seriously, I know Sydney’s roads are pretty congested but if that was your life - hours in traffic everyday and you couldn’t avoid it - then why would you live here? Chris Smith

Singapore sux  Comments

Singaporean sign

30/07/2008 9:48:00 AM. Singapore is one of the most advanced nations in history - but it's also a backwards, morally bankrupt dictatorship that needs to take a serious look at its priorities. Tim Brunero explains.

Given you are executed if you traffic drugs – I would have thought killing someone with your own hands was kind of worthy of the death penalty. Tim Brunero

Why Peter Costello will be leader by November  Comments

Peter Costello | AAP

29/07/2008 7:00:00 PM. The latest Newspoll shows that Peter Costello is the preferred Liberal leader by a country mile and this won't go unnoticed within the party. Chris Smith has phoned around and reckons November might be the time to watch.

I’ve had a couple of chats this week to relatively senior bods in the Liberal party... there’ll be no real challenge. But there will be a handover. Chris Smith

Alan Jones | AAP

I can only hope that men get in early, go to your doctor, don't be afraid, have all the checks Alan Jones

Why isn't food inflation a frontpage story?  Comments

Avocado | Getty

15/07/2008 5:36:00 AM. The rate of food inflation in Australia should be frontpage news and declared national crisis. Alan Jones examines why it isn't.

This dominance of advertising in a metropolitan newspaper is unprecedented anywhere in the world. Alan Jones
