Labor takes to the gutter

Menzies House has warned its readers about McTernan's plans to emulate Obama's winning formula. Come election time later this year I suggest most Australians could adopt a psychotic hatred of all politicians. Perhaps the spoiled ballot numbers might include a message? GC.Ed.

SECRET Labor meetings over summer mark a new ugly step towards importing America's toxic politics of personal character assassination.

Not content with the combative "whatever it takes" style of British Labour's political gutter dweller John McTernan, Labor is now turning to the dirt units of the US Democrats in search of inspiration and "talent" in its quest to tear Tony Abbott down.

Irish “Taliban Terry” Arrested After Saying He’d feel Happy if “Enemy of Islam” Obama Was Killed.

Associated Press DUBLIN (AP) via the Guardian reports that Irish police arrested Ireland’s most notorious Muslim convert on Thursday over his reported death threats against President Barack Obama.

Police said Khalid Kelly, a 44-year-old dubbed “Taliban Terry” by Dubliners, was arrested at his Dublin residence on suspicion of threatening to kill the U.S. leader. He could be held for up to three days before being charged or released.

The arrest came 10 days before Obama’s arrival in Ireland and four days after a British newspaper, the Sunday Mirror, printed an interview with Kelly. He is Ireland’s most outspoken supporter of al-Qaida and its slain founder, Osama bin Laden.

Kelly was quoted as telling the newspaper that he expected al-Qaida to kill Obama during his visit to Ireland in part because the country’s police force is poorly armed. The article said Kelly would like to kill Obama himself but was too well-known to police here.
