right out of my mouth

mood: yep, still relaxed.
state i'm in: full of chicken & salty fish frid rice :-)
tune: jamie cullum "get your way".


i am not an avid 'family first' supporter. not a supporter at all actually. occasionally the party tosses policy ideas at the media that sound reasonable, and as though they have the interests of many australians (especially those that are members of a nuclear family, of course) at heart. but these are generally just fodder for the masses at best (e.g., a strong stance on petrol prices). other policies are complete hot air; party leader steven fielding's policy on asylum seekers for example - tell me precisely what does "a strong system, but a fair system" mean when mr fielding puts forward the party's policy on the matter. doesn't actually tell me anything really. and the remainder are just verification of the parties firm roots in the christian right. forgive me if i am wrong, but i was under the belief that church and state were separate.

last week a hacker managed to infiltrate the party's website and post the following page on mr fielding's blog. more embarrassing still was the fact that it was at the advice of 'the age' newspaper that family first became aware of the event.
