POPSAussie politics likened to Punch and Judy show Australian politicians have usually been more interested in themselves than the real world. They sit happily in the pockets of the mining companies and do as they are told. The charade that they present to the public is absolutely pathetic.

POPSThe continuing marginalization of Ron Paul Here's another online feature exposing the slanted media conglomerates' persistent and barefaced efforts to marginalize the strongest antiwar presidential candidate in the 2008 elections.
