Title: the Greens get more and more
Post by cods on Dec 19th, 2017 at 7:25am
disgusting.

TREASURER Scott Morrison has taken time out from delivering the government’s mid-year financial health check to slam Greens senator Nick McKim for mocking Christmas.

Senator McKim and his Tasmanian colleague Peter Whish-Wilson caught the ire of Mr Morrison after posting an image of a banner which reads: “merry non-denominational seasonal festivity”.

“Sorry Eric,” they wrote on Facebook, in reference to senator Eric Abetz, alongside the image. But Mr Morrison said Christmas was a “very spiritual time of year and central to (Christians’) religious faith”.

“Grow up and show some respect to your fellow Australians,” he said. “You may not share their views or their beliefs, but as elected members the least you could do is not mock them, especially during a time of year that is very important to them.

“For Members of Parliament to treat this important religious occasion with such disrespect is as offensive as it is disappointing,”

In April Senator McKim was slammed by conservatives for mocking Easter after joking he would treat his staff to “halal-certified holiday eggs and warmed non-denominational cinnamon-flavoured geometrically decorated seasonal fruit buns”.

Senator McKim’s banner was likely a reaction to Senator Abetz’s request to 85 government agencies asking how they were celebrating Christmas in messages to staff: “Please provide the messages (if any) sent to staff (on the most recent occasions) of Christmas/New Year, Easter and Ramadan by the Secretary of the Department or Agency Heads at the relevant time,” he requested.

Christmas is just a way for shops to sell their crap and con kids into being good for a change....Christianity is defiantly not above criticism like any other religion that believes they are somehow special....Christians are no better than anyone else and Christmas sucks!!!

Most of the Greens are demented turds anyway, it's no surprise they behave like the immature extremist pricks they are.

Morrison sees votes in anti-Muslim strategy

THE opposition immigration spokesman, Scott Morrison, urged the shadow cabinet to capitalise on the electorate's growing concerns about "Muslim immigration", "Muslims in Australia" and the "inability" of Muslim migrants to integrate.

Mr Morrison's suggestion was made at a meeting in December at which shadow ministers were asked to bring three ideas for issues on which the Coalition should concentrate its political attack during this parliamentary term.

The Herald has learnt several colleagues, including the deputy leader, Julie Bishop, and the former immigration minister Philip Ruddock, strongly disagreed with the suggestion, pointing out that the Coalition had long supported a non-discriminatory immigration policy and saying it was not an issue that should be pursued.

But after Mr Morrison's comments this week on the cost of asylum-seeker funerals and his role in the controversial decision to cut a Howard government program to fund schools in Indonesia, colleagues are privately questioning whether he is trying to pursue an anti-Muslim political strategy unilaterally.

The Green Left represent a clear and present danger to the erosion of values held dear to most Australians

Remember when you vote for this  Party you are voting for EXTREMISM and a radical way of life

This Party is not warm and cuddly and engages in ever increasing acts of violence to try and wrest their way

They need to be sh.t canned when it comes to your vote

Sorry cods, I made a similar thread before seeing this. Exactly, it is weird how you don't see the Greens doing the same for Iftar or Ramadan isn't it. Any lefties care to answer why that may be?

Showing how ignorant some pollies are immigration has always discriminated even after the White Australia Policy was gone.  It still is.

Why should we fund Indonesian schools? hmmm.

Red, years ago when I was young and stoopid I explored the Greens as I naively thought they cared for the environment.  The closer I got the more I was shocked.  The true believers want to reorder our society top to bottom.  They are really wolves in sheep's clothing.  At least Nazis are wolfs in wolfs clothing.

MERRY XMAS OR HAPPY HOLIDAYS…what’s the bloody difference?
LARRY PICKERING Tue 19 Dec 2017 12:08:44 pm/836 COMMENTS



The far Left clearly wants all reference to Christmas abolished. Okay, so they don’t believe in Christ, so what, Merry Christmas has nothing to do with Christ or Mass for that matter, and to be traditionally merry is to be stone drunk.

“Happy Holidays” is to wish someone enjoyable "holy days”, the latter being more religiously venerated. … but the Left usually gets everything arse about tit anyway!

“Merry Nondenominational Seasonal Festivity”, as the idiot Greens prefer, doesn’t really have a joyous ring to it, and it’s hard to explain the meaning to confused kids.



Christmas is the re-named Pagan mid-winter festival of Saint Nicholas (contracted to Santa Claus) it has nothing to do with the birth of Christ nor does Easter have anything to do with his resurrection.



Easter is the re-named Pagan fertility festival of the Goddess Oestra (thus the female hormone oestrogen, Spring, rapidly breeding rabbits, fertile eggs and all that stuff) nothing to do with Christ or his fabled resurrection.

So what is the Left trying to do? Banishing “Merry Christmas” is about banishing getting drunk and banishing a bloke who had nothing to do with Christmas, so isn’t that all a little counterproductive?


Two excellent reasons to abolish the Senate

I couldn’t give a stuff! All I care about is seeing my kids’ faces on the morning of December 25. It’s a celebration of something and I don’t bloody care what! Each year they get to decorate a tree and prepare for Santa’s chimney entrance and they try desperately to stay awake to witness the event. But they always fall asleep and all they see is that the empty glass of milk and two biscuits they left for him are gone by daybreak.



Then it’s off to frantically open their presents before the whole 40 strong family arrives with enough tucker to feed an army. And we do sort of get a little merry until we all flake in a heap.

So Senator McKim, and your buggered up idea of banishing Christmas, please come around to my joint next Monday and you might see what Christmas means to real people who have real kids.



And bring the rest of your ABC regulars, those gangrenous, homosexual Greens, including that cosmetically challenged communist, Lee Rhiannon, with you ‘cos I have a couple of 6 foot 6 inch sons who have a lovely Christmas present for you all,

… a turkey and cranberry sauce knuckle sandwich.
