Jason - please do not try to dissuade me from my mission. I am the
Cultural Terminator. I (and many others) have been annointed by Mr
Bolt. Ask yourself how many weirdo foreigners get their novels
published in English. Havent a few of these weirdos even won the Booker
Prize? Have you understood nothing about the scourge of political
correctness? <br>
<br>
Please try to understand the crisis neoconservative commentators are
struggling alert us to. And be a little bit more sensitive to their
marginalised position. What's their platform? Sure they pretty much
dominate the opinion pages of the Australian, the Sydney Morning
Herald, every Murdoch paper in Australia, and commercial talkback radio
and a lot of television by default. But how often do they get invited
to give a lecture to undergraduates in cultural studies? So please stop
your elitist carping. So this Xmas, give a little thought to how lonely
it must be out there on the margins for neo-conservatives. Crochet them
something nice. <br>
<br>

don't end it Catharine. </font>
