Andrew Bolt reports:
3AW host Neil Mitchell - a critic of Kevin Rudd’s farce of an ideas summit - says he was asked last night by “the Prime Minister’s office” to send one of his listeners as a delegate.
If criticism gets you a seat at RuddFest, this site could fill the place three times over. Where are our invites, Kevin?
#1 - I’m having a bit of trouble with the application form. They won’t recognise my belief system: Open bar.
Posted by Infidel Tiger on 2008 02 29 at 01:29 AM • permalinkPlease let them take Maryloon Sheephead and Jack Smit as conferenceers.
It would be like sticking 998 people in a large room with 2 loons running their fingernails over blackboards for 2 days.Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2008 02 29 at 01:36 AM • permalinkPogs’s nominated herself.
I nominate Pickles and Skeeter.
Sheesh, if we all go I reckon we could sort it out in no time and have a Saturday night piss up and a Sunday BBQ Recovery Piss Up to Celebrate Solutions.
(Open bar, of course, to cater for the religious beliefs of a minority, soon to be swelled by new members…)
Can seppos volunteer? I have some extra leave to burn.

I mean, the head tilting going on during that thing is liable to unbalance the entire country! We must act!
I hope they’ll be synchronized, or at least have medics on hand to treat concussion.
Posted by flying pigs over mecca on 2008 02 29 at 02:37 AM • permalinkI have a grave fear (as opposed to the normal pothole fears) that this assemblage of like-minded krudd wankers will collapse the lacuna between the Kantian Phenomena and Noumena and krudd’s reality will be real! It’ll be Schrodinger’s Cat in every home! Speaking of which, I still can’t get onto the blog of that quantum detritus, adams.
Just like during the election when Rudd debated himself, today Rudd has released his own report card on his first 97 days, thus beating the customary 100-day review by the media by three days.
Thin edge of the wedge. Next thing we will have government-owned radio and TV stations spewing out propaganda that glorifies everything Rudd does. What’s that? We have? What’s it called? How do you spell that? A-B-...
#15 you’re onto something, Cohenite. With the 1000 dumbest people in Australia all assembled in Canberra, a critical mass of stupid is likely to form, and who knows what will happen then? Neck vertebrae spontaneously fusing into compassionate head tilts, radios tuning themselves to Philip Adams broadcasts on Radio National, people actually reading copies of the Melbourne Age…
Anyone living in Canberra would be well advised to move away for the duration. And check their disaster insurance.
I’m willing to attend. There is free booze, isn’t there?
Posted by Dean McAskil on 2008 02 29 at 04:48 AM • permalinkJudging by the crowd invited, there’s not enough booze in Ireland to make this shindig interesting - A nice mixture of amyl-nitrate, magic mushies and an ether enema should get the average man in the street through Kev Il Rudd’s intro.
Posted by Infidel Tiger on 2008 02 29 at 05:07 AM • permalinkQuestion at this point - when Rudd announced this farce, he said the participants would pay their own travel and accommodation costs. Is that still the case? How about Labor’s attendees - does Rudd have to pay his own costs? Gillard? Penny Wong? Blanchett or does she collect an appearance fee too? Kerry O’Brien? Or does the ABC pay for him? Mitchell’s listener who might be a poor pensioner?
#5, Kae,
“I reckon we could sort it out in no time and have a Saturday night piss up and a Sunday BBQ Recovery Piss Up to Celebrate Solutions.”
I rekon you might just be right there, it sounds like a lot more fun your way too.
#10, Rbresca,
“Maybe we should organise an anti-ideas summit on the same weekend”
Sounds good too, just make sure to include the “Saturday night piss up and a Sunday BBQ Recovery Piss Up”...

My attorney, who had been pouring the extracts of several endangered species on his chest to facilitate the tanning process, said “sure- what the fuck are you on about? You look like you’ve just seen Julia Gillard in a teddy.”
Just as we were passing Lake George, we spotted a hitchiker, and my attorney slurred (the distillate enema starting to kick in) “that sorry-arsed motherfucker looks like he could use a ride”, to which I demurred, the snorted asbestos heighting my paranoia- “leave the son-of-a-bitch here, the unemployed hillbillies laid off by Centrelink will have him picked clean by morning.”
When he produced a convincing argument, I agreed and we swerved to the kerb, running over an echidna and two lost German backpackers.
My attorney said- “jump in- bet you’ve never been in a Pacobuilt H3 Humvee convertible before, especially one powered by a Rolls Royce Merlin that until a week ago powered the last operational Supermarine Spitfire?”
Our new passenger said….........
(To be continued- “Fear and Loathing in Kev Fukzus”.
Tanya Plibersek has a “big idea”. She and Fran Kelly were banging on about it this morning.
By Centrally Planned Economy out of Nanny State, Tanya’s Baby is a plan to give developers a tax break if they build affordable housing projects.
The conceptualizing is pure democratic socialism: these “developers”, you know, are like, Pavlovian. Dangle a tax break in front of them, show a bit of thigh and they’ll be eating out of your … never mind.
The flaws in this plan may prove to be numerous, however I see it as unlikely that any sane person will build, for commercial or tax break reasons, a block or estate which is born to be a slum and has no guarantee of either good income or resale value.
Big Idea Link#32, Habib, A Merlin powered Humvee? Nice man, Very Nice.
Posted by The_Wizard_of_WOZ on 2008 02 29 at 05:50 AM • permalink#32 Habib, I had been lusting after one of these all day but your Merlin powered Pacobilt makes the Holden look a bit mardi gras.
Thanks for saving me from a foolish mistake.#37- Like the Boomerang and the Wirraway, the Nips do it better- bastard Nissan is going to import them so sods like me can’t bring them in on the sly.
BTW- one just lapped the Nurembring about 3 seconds faster than the new 911 Turbo in the wet. I thought my R34 V Spec was a bit of a beast.
OT. WA teachers are on strike. If only they were in the private system where good teachers were rewarded and useless ones sacked or put on minimum wages and the system could then sort itself out.
But the footage showed them all with their banners and flags smelling of sameness.
Who suffers in all this bullshit? The children and therefore the country.
#39 Mehaul, nah, don’t worry about the children suffering. Every day the teachers strike is one less day they get to indoctrinate your offspring.
That’s the way I look at it.
Mind you, I do agree that teachers are underpaid compared to plenty of other professions, especially here in Melbournistan, so I can quite happily tell my daughter’s teacher to take as many days as she likes.
