Bolt Seared, again
Andrew Bolt yesterday noted that even though the Gillard government now has more asylum seeker children in detention than ever under John Howard, the Left "says almost nothing against Julia Gillard":
Anyway, Sear sees evil just about everywhere he looks, even refusing to shop at furniture giant Ikea, which he describes as "my idea of hell", fearing that he will enter the store never to emerge.
Really, it's hard to take his incessant whining seriously.
Update A number of Pure Poison posts, including the one linked above, have gone missing. Shenanigans or technical issues? Stay tuned. (By the way, the cached post linked above, while it lasts, is here.)
It was Howard’s alleged barbarity to asylum seekers in particular that earned him the foulest abuse from people who showed none of the compassion they demanded from him. You know them and their kind, and how they luxuriated in abusing Howard.Pure Poison's number one Bolt obsessive begs to differ, producing this nastiness directed at Gillard:
“A man with the heart of a caraway seed,’’ jeered Mike Seccombe of the Sydney Morning Herald…
A “cold-hearted prick’’, said footballer Michael Long…
(He has) “bloodless lips of string’’, added Herald Sun columnist Jill
Singer…
“Unflushable turd,” sniggered author Mungo MacCallum.
The then Labor president Carmen Lawrence even endorsed a Rock Against Howard CD with tracks such as John Howard is a Filthy Slut.
Refugee advocate Pamela Curr said the Gillard government was “no better than the last”.Jeez, it's no wonder Bolt takes no notice of the PP boyz (and Sear in particular) – not only is Curr's observation tepid, the last government was the Rudd government, not the Howard government.

Wouldn't someone who spends all of his spare time playing computer games be able to defeat the Ikea Challenge?
Maybe he hasn't worked out which enchanted ork he has to remove the spell from or something.
They've just deleted yet another one.

To be fair, Anon 7:59 and the Anon on the earlier thread, if they had some sort of massive failure they might have had to roll back a day or two to get up & running again.
Their well-known habit of sneakily sending inconvenient comments and even whole posts "down the memory hole" notwithstanding, even dishonest jerks sometimes have system failures.
But back to the subject, how is Pure Poison any different than any of the earlier incarnations of BoltWatch? Bolt writes something; the BoltWatchers jump in with a reflexive "Nuh-HUH, Dolt is TEH STOOPID, and also RACIST. Also, Murdoch!" "PWNED!!!!!"
Yawn.
Comments at the posts disappeared first. Then the posts themselves. My bet - one of the adults at Crikey (there must be one) has said "enough".
LOL! The latest post at Jeremy's anonmouselefty site is called "Now you see them, now you don’t".
Got that right Jezza mate. How long before Crikey publishes ANOTHER apology because of a PPBoyz stuff up?
(Just read the deleted posts and comments. That's where the problems are. Time to call the legal experts.)
With so many of Crikey's comments (which have now conveniently disappeared without notice) making wild claims about a case which is sub judice (the aborigines' case against Bolt), I wouldn't doubt that a grown-up had to step in.
They also refuse to publish any serious questions about what's happened. They may be in discussion with their solicitors. And not the Jezza-type solicitors.
Ironic, since one post they are notorious for having "disappeared" a while ago was a mandated apology to Bolt (one of the three or so they have had to make).
Yes it looks strange Spot that other Crikey posts are still up, it's mainly the Pure Posions posts and comments which all got disappeared, if it was a server problem and rollback then you would expect ALL contemporary Crikey posts to be gone, but that is not so.
Also as mentioned earlier first the comments started disappearing, then the posts one by one, and not even in order of when they had been posted (I think the 'Open Thread' was the first to go right after some really Bolt-deranged comments from "thirdborn" and "mathew of canberra", then one by one others started going too, then the caches started disappearing as well!)
Its sweet of you to give them the benafit of the doubt but theres no reason to believe that this isn't just them getting themselves into trouble yet again for going TOO FAR.
They need a full time Responsible Adult to babysit them I think.
Anon 10pm, isn't it amusing how on that blog post you mention, Jeremy Sear is careful to put big [SIC] tags in where he sees that others have made a typo, and then in his very next sentence he writes, "I’d have thought they might concentrate on a message to positively effect driver behaviour on the road"?
[SIC] thyself, Jeremy!
A change can be effected, but one affects others' behaviour.
What. The. Fuck. is Jeremy doing with that anti-family "Australian Family Lobby" site/group he invented? Crikey, now there's a dishonest load of tosh.
http://www.australianfamilies.org/
It's like that devout true-believer Warmenist mob who call themselves "SkepticalScience".
Paging George Orwell, language crimes in progress.
Jeremy has the PP Boyz blog, his AnonymousLefty blog, that "AFL" blog, and a gaming blog (http://www.restorerestartquit.com/ )
And he studies ever post by Bolt and every comment on them.
Any others?
How does he have time to do his Lawyer job?
PP blog commenter confirms:
"I posted a comment here yesterday evening when I noticed the other two thread had vanished, just saying that it had happened and vaguely wondering why.
That comment here in this thread appeared, then became moderated, then was deleted. While I watched. Nothing else seemed affected."

Shopping at Ikea is hell, but at least it is good for a perv. Always lots of good looking women buying flat-pack furniture for some reason...
Yep, pity the comment before the one you're quoting there confirms that there's the same issues over at Poll Bludger.
Nice to see you all using logic instead of jumping to conclusions, though.
I don't especially like Ikea stores either, but obviously enough people do to keep them in business.
How, then, is that a failure of capitalism?
Does he understand what that word means?
Anon 7:50am: Maybe in the panic to pull the legally-fraught PP Boyz pieces, they stuffed up something else? No way was that just a "system error" - the way the comments and then posts were disappearing, and then the caches were wiped, hints at something altogether familiar for the Boyz - over-reaching in their smears.
Nothing more 'legally-fraught' than criticizing Mr Bolt.
"Nothing more 'legally-fraught' than criticizing Mr Bolt."
The PPBoyz keep pushing that line, but has Bolt ever actually sued them?
I think the PPBoyz are just making that up. Ateention-seekers and wannabe "victims" of "big bad Bolta" who is obviously not "big and bad" enough to actually silence them the way they would like.
Whingers, drama-queens and liars, the lot of them.
The reason Bolt has not sued Jeremy is because that Jeremy's assets are some second hand Blackadder DVDs and a cat.
I like being Anonymous too. It is fun saying shit on the Internet about real people without any consequences.
Sear is anonymous too. Anonimity stops when you get a personality.
"It is fun saying shit on the Internet about real people without any consequences."
You might want to ask "Ant Rogenous" about that one.
Just sayin'.
Should Jeremy be considered a proper lawyer if he is still practicing? Or is he just soliciting?
Cheers

Yes, "Duncan" ..... er ..... "Merl Values" ..... er .... "Tony" errr.... whatevah.
l0l.
I still call shenanigans on the PP Boyz. It's too "convenient" the way comments and then posts disappeared, and then some posts were miraculously restored complete with comments yet others "unfortunately" lost the grubbiest and most deranged of the comments. And all the while, the main Crikey site was fine.
I say whichever Adult went into a panic over some of the trash that they'd gone ahead and published panicked, and hit the wrong button.
Existing Google caches only get deleted when you deliberately ask Google to delete them yet that's exactly what happened last night. One minute they were there, the next, wiped.
Jeremy's no stranger to miraculous and convenient "system fails", remember when he claimed that Haloscan ate all his comments on one of his old blogs, so that every single comment on his first 2000 posts is now inaccessible (handy!), but he and his AntRogenous mate were somehow mysteriously still able to reference individual comments that had allegedly been "lost", even months later?
Would it be so surprising to discover that he hasn't changed a bit in his modus operendi?
Yeap. Shenanigans.
Hey, flashback! Too bad the corresponding comments on Jezza's blog were among those conveniently "lost" - they were hella funny.
"Memories..."

If only you'd saved these 'grubby' and 'deranged' comments for the rest of us to see!
To stop the PP Boyz claiming you're just making them up.
