My Say
There has been reaction to our story in last issue submitted by Arcacia Rose and we will be addressing this after the weekend emails have been sorted.
To the question "where is Bob Devious Debus hiding?" - we are not sure but as the weather warm his kind will slither to warm on the overturned rocks in the sun.
It would seem that Abbott and Costello are at each other's throats and neither knows if WHO is still on first base.
Next week we bring you a paper from a senior investigator who was on the NSW Royal Commission into the Building Industry in the 1980's. He reveals the degree
unions went to, under a Labor government, that will scare the hell out of you.

Macropod Soup funds Radical Greens
ACT maybe a Federal Realm, but Jon Stanhope is Mayor of some very strange inhabitants.
The Canberran Native Grasses movement loves grass, but who is the lover of the offending 4000 excess kangaroos plaguing the ACT since NSW burnt the mountains.
Shooting affects the sensibilities of the green radicals, so what to do?
Well like Ripley's "Believe it or Not" some nameless whackers are touting the removal of the kangaroos to the Braidwood area in a re-location program at a cost of $3,600.00 per animal. You heard it, $3,600.00 per macropod.
The grapevine is sleuthing the report, as such a money making scheme as this from the people's tax coffers has got to have a link to the Investment Banking sector somewhere.
Farmers, when your drought weary stock are bringing just over the trucking rate at the sale yards for meat that is on sold at a tidy profit in the supermarket, this is mud in your eye.
Braidwood farmers, may we suggest you install meat safes and buy up on ammunition, for a windfall in kangaroo meat is coming your way.
Citibank Plays hand
The world's largest Bank, "Citibank" tells our government to leave water pricing to market forces.
Just what we need as the Coup de Gra for Australia, another bloody bank dictating it's terms to our politicians and hence delivering another sword strike to the rural sector of this Nation.
When State Ministers, such as NSW Minister for Regional Development, vindicate SOS-NEWS and others of the insidious permeation of the Macquarie Bank into politically condoned profiteering by use of city centric fat cats using their disposable cash to screw the nation down and destroy the little guy, what does the future hold for this country?
Now we have the globe's largest bank working in the background. One wonders, just where the covert meeting was held by these players to plan their take-over of the greatest nation in the world.
I can't remember the politician that used the term "It's time", but today it is time. Time for us, the multitude of little people, to dictate back to the governments of this Nation, our servants, huh, that enough is enough. We have to speak as a cohesive and singular voice and achieve the same outcome as our voice did for the Snowy Hydro attempted theft.
90% of our farmers are sporting, from black eyes to broken arms, yet still believe the system is being designed, legislated and implemented for their betterment and therefore continue working to the system that is laid before them. A system that is led by investment bankers and tooled by radical greenies, still they ask why are they and their industries being picked off and destroyed one by one?

No Money for a Bridge to Tharwa.
No money for hospitals to treat the young and elderly.
No money for policing and education.
No money to provide a new bridge to Fire hero, Val Jeffries township of Tharwa , cut off from the world, yet a $Billion Dollars is ear marked on fanciful,
esoteric lake side infrastructure and the ACT Mayor, Jon Stanhope - hope being the operative part of the name - preens himself as great in the media.

Kingston harbour foreshore work begins
Work has begun on the Kingston Harbour Foreshore development in Canberra, the ACT government says.
The official start of construction on the $1 billion development was announced yesterday by chief minister Jon Stanhope.
The project will provide Canberra with a functional harbour by the end of 2008, with boardwalks, a jetty and cafes and restaurants to be added once construction is complete.
It is the largest development on Lake Burley Griffin since the 1960s.
The foreshore development was designed by local architect Colin Stewart and is being built by MacMahon Contractors.
WATER WATCH II
We reported back in December 2006, of massive purchases by Macquarie Bank relieving permanent water rights from farmers
backed into the financial wall of doom along the Murray River.
The bank set up Macquarie Agribusiness in 2004, to establish a portfolio of rural properties under corporatise management
The bank then formed the Macquarie Livestock Company, which plans to buy large tracts of prime Australian agricultural land,
through its Macquarie Pastoral Fund, and will eventually farm up to 200,000 sheep and cattle.
Their tentacles moved to irrigations rights securing water for its other rural investment in high-value almond crops where
Macquarie Bank is one of major players in the number of managed investment schemes that now control more than 18,000ha of new irrigation
crops, mostly in the Sunraysia region and Victoria's Goulburn Valley.
In south-western NSW, Macquarie Agribusiness and corporations like Timbercorp Ltd, now own more than 25 per cent of all water
rights growing with every farmer going to the wall.
Farmers in the western Murray region of NSW witness the loss of water undermining the local economy most struggle to afford
enough water to grow their crops. Information to SOS-NEWS suggests these funds and Macquarie Bank have bought enough water
in just the western Murray Basin that would fill 13,100 Olympic-size swimming pools and they have transferred much of it to new crops in Victoria.
Our caring federal government for the past few months have negotiated with the concerned states to take over the Murray Basin water control.
The only fly in the ointment was Steve Bracks, recently retired Premier of Victoria and the Water Minister/Deputy Premier, John Thwaites who also retire just hours after Bracks.
Party Room Sheeple manipulation in 2007
Having stated they were doubtful of our fairy godmother, Howard's intentions, not to mention major concern for the ugly sister,
Malcolm Turnbull striking a sour note with negotiations, they defended their objection to the Federal takeover quoting one flaw being privatisation
as a planned option by Canberra. Holding to their guns Bracks and Thwaites were now to face court action from the Federal Government against
the Victorian Government under direction from Merchant Banker, Solicitor and now Federal minister for Water, Malcolm Turnbull
During the Turnbull spin at the negotiating table, he was reported to say, "There will be plenty of water to BUY".
We have always asked the question at SOS-NEWS, why Turnbull, as a politician on about $500,000pa, who in just 12 months extracted a personal
$20 Million from harvesting forests in the Solomon Islands, and has worked in leading world Merchant Banks, should not salaried like his mates at Macquarie Bank.
Macquarie Bank Executives Salaries
Chief Executive Allan Moss receiving $33.5 million
Investment banking chief Nicholas Moore $32.9 million
Corporate finance Michael Carapiet with almost $23 million
Chairman David Clarke earned almost $19 million
Deputy managing director Richard Sheppard $10.2 million.
Farmers have had water allocations cut to zero and cannot now feed their own family because their crop is rice. Government earmark rice as a thirsty crop but not nuts.
Rice uses 8 mega litres per hectare, almonds use 11 mega litres although not obvious it is reticulated underground. Almonds are high value crop
compared to rice being low value high usage.
So will we see Macquarie Bank's almond farms water supply being terminated?
With our nations international DEBT sitting around $688 BILLION DOLLARS, and no hope of clearing that debt, keep well in mind that
Macquarie Bank has around $175 Billion Dollars in assets and are cashed up - but by WHOM?
These people give VULTURES a very bad name.
When these corporate jackals have feasted on the carcasses of farmers driven to despair by unworkable government legislation, radical green harassment,
and supermarket chains cutting produce purchase prices to the bone, we will see immerge the monolith Macquarie Bank projecting total control of rural resources.
Malcolm Turnbull must have a mission. Controlling his corporate clout momentarily, while utilizing government party room sanction as a manipulation tool,
we may see unfold a nation of people prosperity turn to pumpkin, long before the fairy godmother has twigged, or the sheeple have awoken.

Minister Confirms SOS-NEWS concern with Macquarie Bank Thursday, August 02, 2007 - Riverina Media Group
NSW Minister for Regional Development Tony Kelly has slammed the federal government's $10 billion Murray-Darling rescue package while touring Griffith yesterday.
Speaking during a tour of De Bortoli Wines, the minister's comments came just days after Prime Minister John Howard announced the plan would go ahead, despite Victoria's refusal to sign on.
Mr Kelly said he applauded Victorian premier Steve Bracks for his protectionist stance.
I've got serious doubts about it, Mr Kelly said. I know, for example, Steve Bracks is holding out to protect the Victorian farmers and irrigators, and I congratulate him for doing that.
Unveiled in January, the ambitious package promised to provide a major boost to the region's agricultural industries.
Despite having joined the Queensland, South Australian and ACT governments in supporting the plan, the NSW government now appears to be wavering.
Mr Kelly said NSW Water Minister Phil Koperberg was in continuing discussions with the federal government over the plan.
Phil Koperberg is not happy with a number of the issues and he has very serious concerns about it. What (the federal government) are coming up with now, there's a lot more restrictions than originally announced, he said.
Mr Kelly said he was concerned there were parallels with this plan and the federal government's deregulation of the dairy industry.
I know what they did to the dairy industry they stuffed the dairy industry through their deregulation process, he said.
I'm just a little bit worried this is all about making water another commodity, so that Macquarie Bank can be able to buy and sell it and make an absolute fortune.
104 Years Ago We Piped Water?
On February 1st, 1903, a large party of Federal and State politicians arrived in Western Australia for the opening of the Gold Fields Water Supply Scheme.
The 30-inch (76 Centimetres) diameter pipeline ran from Perth to Kalgoorlie a distance of 359 miles (578 Kilometres) was designed by Charles O'Connor, and was the first established water line in Australia.
Working from Kalgoorlie to Perth and another team from Perth to Kalgoorie to save money and time with the construction was a magnificent engineering feat.
From the bigots and political doomsday factions loaded O'Connor to the point of suicide. Lulled into believing that the joining of the two construction teams had been miscalculated, the connection was 100% accurate.
This water line is still in service, supplying the townships along the pipe that follows the railway from the Mundaring Weir in Perth to Kalgoorlie.
Now 104 years along the track, our water infrastructure is falling apart at the seams. Technology and equipment has moved with the times, but still remains the bigots and brain dead politicians they had to contend with in 1903, with one exception, they now take no notice of we the people and have taken on board the technology of nest feathering from the public purse.
The Australia Bastille is about to be Stormed
Why do a very small minority, albeit elite, in this nation want to continuously pursue the Republican push?
Answer.
No matter how many inroads the elite make into Australia and its immense available wealth by stealth and illegal tampering of our
rights via dishonest legislation, they cannot and will not, succeed in attaining a subservient population deprived of any National, or
Private ownership without rewriting our Constitution.
To effectively have a Republic, there will be a need to rewrite the Australian Federal Constitution and if the bastards put a referendum
to the people to rewrite the Constitution on its own, it would not just fail, it would never get up to be voted upon.
But by pursuing a Republic, they are surreptitiously getting the Australian Public's permission to rewrite the Constitution by stealth
and each and everyone of us knows just what Lawyers could, would and will achieve by such an action.
The ruse that it is about the head of state, is nothing but an emotional furphy to generate consensus amongst a naive population. Nothing is further from the truth.
Our founding fathers smelt the presence of these dangerous mongrels, even before they entered a womb and in so smelling, attempted to arm us as a population, with some powerful tools to defeat them.
Kevin Rudd has just declared that he and his team of professional politicians are going to go down this track if he attains power, but by this admission of intention he is also indicating just how much money he is prepared to waste on the way. Money that he is happy to spend, while kiddies and elderly languish and die in hospitals through lack of services.
You may not like John Howard, but the above Labor monopoly is the most frightening prospect this nation has faced since the attack by the Japanese on Darwin.
Ponder on this.
98% of all Nations that are a republic, are involved in a bullet firing war either internally, or with their neighbour and none of it is for humanitarian reasoning. Why?
"You can fool some of the people all of the time and all of the people some of the time, but if any of you are fooled this time, God help this Nation."
