Portions of any work that are quoted are reproduced on the basis of the "fair dealing for purpose of criticism or review" section 41 of the Copyright Act 1968.
let's look at the Australian Copyright Council's fact sheet on Fair Use:
The Federal Court has stated that “criticism and review” involves making a judgment of the material concerned, or of the underlying ideas. Criticism and review may be strongly expressed, and may be expressed humorously, and need not be balanced. The defence can apply where the criticism or review takes place in a commercial context, such as in published books or newspapers or on commercial television.
However, the court emphasised that the purpose of criticism or review must be genuine. If the person has other motives – especially if these motives involve using the material to make a profit, or using a competitor’s material to
divert customers from the competitor – the fact that they have also engaged in a form of criticism or review is not
enough to prevent the use from infringing copyright

Iain Hall's SANDPIT 
Reading between the lines, he is predicting a massive Coalition victory in 2013.
It will be good to see Windsor and Oakeshott punished by their constituents for supporting Labor and the carbon tax.
On the upside I think that Had Tony managed to do a deal for government then the colaition would not be travelling as well with the public as they are now because minority government is poison no matter who is in the lodge.
AH YES! John Howard the PM who lost his own seat to a former ABC journalist—-(I love giving that retort to the rightards) The PM who promised not to be a commentator once he left office.Was this a non-core promise? The “lying rodent” just can’t help himself.
And you can be sure that a very large number of those former liberal voters who tried the Labor vote last time will return to the fold at the next election and hope that no one asks them why they strayed…
Greens up in the last two polls now at 15%…..The votes won’t all go to Tony Iain and Leon.
And what’s with the smoking Jesus, careful or you’ll get called a bigot by damage!
It looks more like a joint, Craigy. Jesus was the original hippy.
Richard,
For as long as Labor is being led by Julia “no carbon tax” Gillard, I don’t think leftists can throw bombs about honesty and consistency in the Liberal Party.
Craigy,
We’ll see what happens with the Greens vote. I suspect that their vote will neither fall nor rise by much at the next election. The big flow of votes will be from the ALP (and country independents) to the Coalition.
I also suspect that Greens will have the balance of power in the Senate again, possibly in the new Senate that convenes in 2013.
I heard today on the news “Julia used verbal abuse in the high court” (Quote Tony Abbott)
