    I’m with Bruce Garage… the ‘sorry’ gesture means crap if this disgusting stuff isn’t addressed. Nice to meet you on Insiders, First Dog.

    Sometimes you have to go beyond funny and say what needs to be said. Thank you.

    First Dog, your cackles are up! Disregard the satire and go straight for the jugular. Can’t say i disagree with the sentiment, however. I only wonder if the Palm Island coroner or police read Crikey.

    The uppity islanders need all the help they can get because they are certainly getting nothing from the Bligh State Government nor the Rudd Federal Government. All they are getting are devious schemes to by pass land rights to reclaim their land so these government bureaucrat arseholes can flog off the land to their rich mates in the uranium, coal, other mining and tourism industries. The ALP are worse than John Howard ever was; they suck big time. Especially that tosser Reynolds.

    First Dog….agree entirely with the other writers…one of your best…sometimes you have to say it like it is..and it is disgraceful.

    There hasn’t been a lot of progress over the past couple of 100 years or so has there really?

    Keep it up, the cops up there may not read Crikey…but we do………

    Another great firstdog. This will go on my fridge near the original Kevin Rudd’s Cat fdotm, but for entirely different reasons.

    mr first dog this was simply superb. i can hear my 79 year old dad applauding and i am right there alongside him (and we are not of uppity island jigaboo descent either) . i have always enjoyed your funny stuff my friend but this makes me wonder what an angry first dog might produce?
    keep up the great work
    one of teh main reasons why i look forward to my email each day :)

    So dog, get your colleagues off their arse’s, and do an in depth, 4 corners(of old) style investigative story on all this. There’s plenty more to be told about Chris Hurley as I’m sure you guys know. Why not spend some dough and really get into it

    Well?

    Well done FirstDog. Let’s hope “our Kev” sees this.
    Or at least one of his family shows it to him.

    Because if Sorry day was supposed to be anything but a cynical stunt……
    If the nation’s prime minister is really a committed reformer……..
    Then he’d better get his “Christian” conscience into gear and kick some arse.

    We’re supposed to be better than this!!! So come on Kevin, prove that we are.

    This actually made me teary. The whole thing is sick. Just disgusting.

    I’m glad you did this.

    Different keys for different locks. You’re a gem FD. I think the people of Palm Island and mainstream Australia will welcome you and your day bed with open arms. Crikey’s shedding some real sunlight on this darkened state atlast.
