Nothing fair about more lies, fear, terror and war!

Who's going to be sacrificed? for HoWARd's illegal and degrading war in Iraq and Australia's current foreign policies that are morally bankrupt?

THERE is a Huru Guru quality to the ALP election campaign that has nothing to do with Opposition leader Mark Latham's extraordinary change-of-life discovery of children's literature.

Lewis Carroll would have been surprised at Mr Latham's ability while promoting policies, which clearly reflect the community's point of view.

His capacity was apparent from the outset running a positive campaign and then launched an attack on, [war criminal, Prime Minister John Howard the 'rodent type' based on the obvious lies and mistrust the community has for this scumbag.

Labor's policies are fully funded and fully costed before the election. Mark Latham's forums are great! That's true democracy when you can listen to the views of other people for once.

The forums have been in the news nightly and indeed, contact with average punters has not been tightly controlled after last night when a member of the audience got hold of the mike. Latham quickly put him in his place and the community laughed. Mark Latham's customary shopping mall walkabouts give people a chance to inform him of their problems and everyone gets a chance to identify with his policies.

Mr Latham has been visiting pre-schools, where it is likely the little tots will challenge any of the ALP's sense of dress code. Everyone knows parents love their children and always dress them up nicely and Mark is hanging out just to check out the latest fashions.

The public hospital sites have worked very well because of complaints among patients in front of the cameras. Indeed it is understood that on one recent foray into a public hospital, the majority of patients opted to get well quicker because they were even more optimistic that extra funding will soon become available under Mark Latham with the prospect of Medicare Gold.

Time and again, he is remarkable with the reality of his party's policies.

With his wife and their children supporting him all the way they're the poster family for suburban values, Mr Latham has not explained why Caretaker honest John Howard refuses to protect children from the horrors of online pornography.

Since John Howard has been in government he has failed to develop policies that would educate sex offenders and for that matter domestic violence in the community. With all the other types of advertising you get from Howard there is very little done about educating the community.

The idea that you close down Online Content with Regulation fails to acknowledge the problem at the root source. People within families are committing these crimes and whatever way they obtain their material or spread their material needs to be looked at, if we are ever going to expose it.

By hiding it in the closet Uncle Pervy will just find another way to exploit the children. At least if you know it is there you can do something about it.

The fact is the ALP is courting the human rights, civil libertarian, social justice and Greens vote, as it should be. Mr Latham's praise for Greens leader Bob Brown acknowledges the Green revolution. Revolution Think!

A "fairer" society for parents who don't want to be limited in their choices about where they send their children to school. Everything is fair about that!

Labor's industrial relations policy, another no-go area for honest John Howard who demands you do as you're told by the bosses regardless of the pay and conditions - for a better stronger economy of course.

Under this policy, the labour market would be nurtured by decency and dignity giving trade unionism dialogue in the work place so workers can express themselves instead of being cowed down by the iron fist of Howard's fear.

There was no fear in the community the last time Labor was in power.

As the list of terrorists, [scapegoats for the Coalition of the Killing's resource war's in the Middle East], and bombings, [state sanctioned terror and false flag operations], [allegedly], show, [?] Australia is, [allegedly], under attack for its foreign policies, there's nothing fair about being blown up in Bali on the dance floor is there now, unless HoWARd believes he's last-on the list, and first-off the plane.

[People believe and have knowledge that John Howard was complicit  in the USA, CIA, TNI, call to arms 2nd Bali bomb blast using military hardware that 'chicken farmers cannot get their hands on.]

People should be able to visit an Australian Embassy without being blown to bits.

The fairest way to go is not to be sacrificed for HoWARd's illegal and degrading war on Iraq, pre-emptive strikes on Sovereign Nation States, occupations, genocides, maimings and tortures, in Afghanistan, and Iraq and all bankrupt foreign policies.

The Government's record high terror alerts and fear mongering would indicate it's in a worse position to maintain national security with record low enlistment in armed services and record high military hardware spending.

A number of the Neo-Liberal politician's lie and their own institutions which could be expected to understand the ramifications of HoWARd's policies have warned that the Lib's planned pre-emptive strikes could start a war in the region.

Peace activist and author No War, a senior adviser to Justice Action and now chief Peace Co-ordinator at End Imperialism and Resource Wars said the Neo-Liberal Coalition have been playing on fear since they came to power, wouldn't matter if it were fear of interest rises or fear of being blown to bits, that's what the Neo-Liberal Coalition expects will keep them in power.

He said, if the Neo-Liberal Coalition gave it's preferences to Family First it is another fine example of a sell out of the Australian way of life together with the Free Raid Agreement making us the 51st state of the U.S for what? Howard's greed.

"A literal interpretation of the Neo-Liberal Coalition's foreign policy could be consistent with war and the doctrine of pre-emptive strikes in the region opposed to cooperation and winning peace.

The Labor think tank "Cooperation" has reported that Labor's platform would lead to better national security, less death, less risk, less lies and no fear.

Mr Latham's own modelling together with the Greens could be a revolution. Revolution Think!

Mr Latham has announced he will pull our troops out of Iraq by Xmas, way to go. Mark my words!

SO PUT YOUR LEFT FOOT FORWARD THIS FEDERAL ELECTION "WITHOUT FEAR" AND "WITHOUT LIES" AND "WITHOUT TERROR" AND "WITHOUT WASTING MONEY ON MILITARY HARDWARE" AND VOTE 1 THE GREENS.
