"We are permitted to debate the timing and process of attacking #Iran, but never its legitimacy, morality, or legality. It is simply taken for granted by leaders of both parties, and of course the vast bulk of #USmedia, that it is the US’s divine right to bomb and sanction any country at any time for any alleged crimes we, unilaterally, determined it committed." - #AdamJohnson

'The fury that erupted over Carr’s invocation of “the public interest” stemmed not just from his transparent performance as the president’s stooge but also from the maddening vagueness of the term. Historically, the differing and uneven applications of the term, informed by priorities of the administration in power, have offered conflicting understandings of what #television should be.'

> #MurdochMedia attacking #KevinRudd for pointing out the obvious.

This is so 2010.

Wonder if the #RupertMurdoch has the credibility to run a #coup against a sitting PM, the same way they did against the last real #leader of our country in 2010. Hmm.
