LITERACY - THE FIRST CASUALTY OF WAR

Another inspirational misquote from our friends at the Climate Change Coalition:

The atmopshere is thin enough that we are capable of changing its composition - Al Gore

Not to mention its spelling (speaking of thin, Al Gore’s composition is secure). The CCC also believes the NSW Opposition leader is Peter “Debman”. Meanwhile, in Melbourne:

  1. No edited Mercedes signs, too, then? Maybe the self-criticism sessions in the reeducation camps are working?

  3. OH sure, force everyone to spell things the same just so we can understande each other.  Don’t you know that “alternative” spelling is ok?  We must celebrate the diverse world of spelling; as a wise man once said: “Wfdsro sdrttsa, sdr r areeaaerjsd.”

  4. Oh! the existenial angst on display.

    How can the sign bearer proclaim that “The Truth is the first casualty of war” when he/she knows full well that there are many truths, each being equal to the other.

    In effect by proclaiming that there is a sigle standard of truth, he/she, has slain all other truths.

    Murderer!

  8. Actually, this is just one big block party by the eco-left.  They just learned that Goldman Sachs is sending its bankers home at night in hybrid limousines.  Oh!  The Joy!

  9. “Casualtie” indicates inability to spell.

    “Atmopshere” is a mere transposition, thus a typo.

  10. #7 I don’t know, Achillea, PACO™ usually runs credit checks before selling over the Net; so I don’t know how many would have been able to make such a purchase.

    And #3 that was a very cromulent point, rbj1. My actaflactions to you.

  11. I believe the woman whose back of the head we see in the picture is actually flaunting her atmopshere.

  12. Casualtie is the singular of casualties. Or maybe a casualtie is an item of informalneckware.

  13. Standard spelling is an archaic, artificial construct imposed by the heirarchical corporate establishment in order to crush the questing spirit of children and other creatures, man.  Free the polar bears!

  17. Well causality is often abused by the left.

  18. Keep saying it, the Climate Change Coalition is all models and TV personalities, not intelligent species. Just curious, but are they for or against climate change?

    There is an 80’s rock band missing their member - FOUND!

    What a waste of a perfectly good Sunday.  I can only pity the poor reporter who had to work that day to report on that sorry lot.

  23. Does the bloke in the floppy cricket hat carrying the Maitreya sign in the photo underneath know what he might be in for?

    “No longer will they (men and other beings) regard anything as their own, they will have no possession, no gold or silver, no home, no relatives! But they will lead the holy life of chastity under Maitreya’s guidance

    No dosh, no roots, by order. Sounds like a way to start a war, rather than end one.

  24. Wow, check out the hair rays emitting from the girl(?) in front!
    Not wearing a tinfoil hat is the first causality of hair rays.
    Howard’s satellite-mounted, Powerful Aerial Cranial Oscillator™ is working well.

    Excellent.

  27. It turns out they’re stupid when it comes to Chinese too.

    The pic above originates at the Melbourne Indy site, on which there is another photo (third one down) that demonstrates cross-linguistic retardation as well.

    In the third pic, two moonbats are chatting near a sign that says: TO THE IRAQI PEOPLE! FUCK THE GOVERNMENT. THEY DON’T SPEAK FOR ME! OR ANYBODY I KNOW!

    Good lefty ranting, and stupid for the obvious reasons.

    But what struck me as funny is the bearded guy on the right wearing a blue t-shirt. He probably wanted to signify his solidarity with Mao Zedong’s workers’ paradise with that Chinese character. In reality he’s wearing a shirt that is just a teensy out of place at a leftwing “noisy anti-war protest”. It’s this character [富]; click on here to see his message to the world. Right on, comrade! I’m with you all the way.

    Is that a woman?  I’d thought I’d spotted the world’s largest dandelion.

  29. The Truth Is The First Casualty of War! Yep, and the loss of truth starts the exact same nanosecond a leftobot rantochanter first opens their mouth.

  32. I remember the dark days of being a school teacher (I used to spend half of my economics and financial management classes unravelling the leftist lies and sociast drivel being spun to my students during English, Psych/sociology and history classes). During one of our student free days I was subjected to a presentation by a teacher who marvelled at the “creativeness” of one of her students who submitted assignments completely written in SMS text english. I countered that it wasn’t SMS and was their best attempt at actual English - she broke down and the principal forced me to apologise to her. On another occasion another teacher and her public servant pals presented the results of their study tour to CUBA! and how wonderful their education system was etc… I responded the only way a conservative could (won’t bore you with the details) again I was forced to apologise… This was 2004 and just a couple of incidents from the last 6 months of my career with the ACT Dept of Education.
