Well played, you baby-noshing election-stealing dead-eyed bastard, well played indeed. I’m sometimes accused of being cynical about politics or seeing conspiracies where none exist and, up to a point, I will admit this is sometimes true. It is an occupational hazard for journalists and politics watchers. Sometime rather than reacting

the woodshed: Harper’s the One
What the hell are those things on the side of Dean Del Mastro’s head? They can’t be ears, because he clearly isn’t listening to a word that is being said to him. Del Mastro is probably sitting down in the video linked above because he has been spinning so much
