Law­mak­ers in Ohio said today they want to force con­victed sex offend­ers to use a fluorescent-green license plate on their cars so they can be eas­ily identified.

Bril­liant, maybe we can have other colours for other criminals.

Of course oppo­nents of the pro­posed law argue the use of a spe­cial plate would stig­ma­tise every­one who shared the offender’s car — includ­ing their spouse or children.

Oh now there is a cry­ing shame….NOT!

There are some down-sides, no-one would want lift from them, ever. The up-sides are that no-one would steal your car.

Garth George writes con­sid­ered and con­ser­v­a­tive arti­cles and todays is no exception.

He writes about the ram­ming through of Bradford’s anti-smacking bill against the over­whelm­ing tide of pub­lic oppo­si­tion.

Excuse the pun, but that is as a good a flog­ging as the gov­ern­ment has got­ten, even Panty Slut-Boy would admire that flogging.

If you are the gov­ern­ment the answer is sweet fuck all.

The Gov­ern­ment has spent well over $1 mil­lion on a recruit­ment drive via a web­site to link New Zealand employ­ers with skilled over­seas migrants.

So far this year New Zealand has two, yes two vacan­cies adver­tised and boy are they plum jobs too, a nurse and a hairdresser.

The web­site is sup­posed to attract skilled for­eign work­ers to help ease the country’s skills short­age. (a nurse and a hairdresser!!!!)

Twenty-eight job vacan­cies were on the web­site last year. Wow!!! that many?

The web­site cost $1.15 mil­lion to design and set up, and a fur­ther $86,400 a year to keep run­ning – is a com­plete and utter fail­ure. Absolutely….$86400 a year to maintain…WTF are they main­tain­ing with only 28 jobs last year that is $3085 to essen­tially cut and paste some fricken text……Rort, smells like one, tastes like, most prob­a­bly is one.

Does any­one know any­one who voted for the fool Hubbard?

Any­one?, anyone?

Todays fool state­ment from the fool is that he cal­cu­lated, and I use the term loosely, cal­cu­lated the $500 mil­lion return of his jun­ket to Ham­burg based on a “vibe” and guesswork.

I won­der if he kept the table nap­kin he did the work­ing out on?

Gnomes are not nor­mally known for hang­ing about with Trolls,

Well here at Wha­le­oil­beefhooked we have found empir­i­cal evi­dence that such occur­rences do actu­ally hap­pen. In fact pho­to­graphic evidence.

The truth is appalling to behold but unfor­tu­nately true, Gnomes do hang-out with heinous ugly mirror-breaking trolls.

Now to pre­vent such appalling mis-treatment of Gnomes from hap­pen­ing in the future, go here and help the poor lit­tle blighters out.

The Government’s oper­at­ing sur­plus is run­ning $1 bil­lion ahead of fore­cast due to higher than expected invest­ment income.

The Crown accounts for the six months end­ing Decem­ber recorded a $4.4 bil­lion sur­plus com­pared to the $3.4 bil­lion forecast.

Again the gov­ern­ment takes more than it needs, and they have the gall to wank on about “Tory Charity”.

National has again gazumped Labour on the car­ing stakes.

This time it is National’s just released Char­i­ta­ble Dona­tions pol­icy. This will of course be labeled the “Tory Char­ity” scheme by the scum of the left.

Under National’s plan, the $1890 cap on dona­tions will be lifted and dona­tions of any amount will be eli­gi­ble for a 33.3 per cent rebate.

I know a cou­ple of guys who per­soan­lly have given in excess of a mil­lion dol­lars to char­i­ties and con­tinue to give, I spoke to them last night and they both were enthu­si­as­tic about this pro­posal and both said it would encour­age them to give even more. Sounds like a win­ner to me.

Would some left­ist apol­o­gist please tell me how this pol­icy is bad from the char­i­ties perspective?

A fool mug­ger in Costa Rica pulled a gun on a bunch of US tourists only to be attacked him­self and have his neck bro­ken by one of the US mugee’s. You see the mugee is a for­mer Marine.

Tui has joined in the Pro-Billboard attack with a bril­liant bill­board fac­ing the motor­way. I guess it is no sur­prise that they are into this in a big way.

In other news the Action Hob­son poo­dles are being shamed into a u-Turn or flip-flop if you wish.

They called for sup­port from the rest of the coun­cil to with­draw the pro­posed blan­ket ban on bill­boards in cen­tral Auck­land in favour of an improved reg­u­la­tory regime which would include the removal of signs on des­ig­nated her­itage build­ings and tight con­trols in char­ac­ter areas.

The poo­dle can’t win with Scott Milne fron C&R Now giv­ing them a good spank­ing, “Action Hob­son coun­cil­lors have realised they are on a hid­ing to noth­ing and now want to cud­dle up to the indus­try they sought to dec­i­mate,” and the left­ists also hav­ing a flick at the turn­coats with Bruce Hucker utter­ing this entirely ris­i­ble pro­fun­dity, “While Action Hob­son may have sin­cere inten­tions, they are under­min­ing the integrity of a process we have put in place,”.

That would, of course, be the “hope­lessly com­pro­mised” integrity of a process, eh Bruce?

I think Scott Milne sums up the new turn of events rather nicely, a des­per­ate bid to head off “polit­i­cal sui­cide”. Indeed.

Mayor Dick Hub­bard just really seems like a slow learner.

He is cop­ping a flog­ging for another ratepayer funded jun­ket that has come to light.

Mayor Dick Hub­bard, coun­cil­lor John Hinch­cliff and Car­o­line Las­siter, the city council’s man­ager of inter­na­tional affairs, went to Ham­burg last Octo­ber for four days to dis­cuss form­ing an “eco­nomic alliance” fly­ing busi­ness class after that they went to see some films in Busan, Korea again all busi­ness class.

More friv­o­lous waste and the Gov­ern­ment thinks it needs a rates inquiry to work out why rates are going through the roof.

The evi­dence is mount­ing that Labour’s so-called “Inde­pen­dent” Inquiry is far from inde­pen­dent, in fact it is appear­ing to be a Labour Party set up.

Check this out, inde­pen­dent rates inquiry panel mem­ber Chris­tine Cheyne is a for­mer worker in Helen Clark’s office.

And that to the other things I blogged about yes­ter­day and it has all the hall­marks of a fit up.

UPDATE TWO: The irony is that John Carter tried to draw atten­tion this shabby state of affairs last year.
