        Cool. I gather Foreign Minister Cash for Comment Jewellery Bishop heads the list given the half a million dollar 'donation' (we're still calling it a donation, right?) to the WA Liberal Party, after-which Bishop talked up the 'donor' 3 times in Parliament. #cashforcomment #auspol

        And once again, it takes the United States government to slap Australian intellegence and politicians to protect Australians. #auspol

        Does this mean we have about 10 political candidates who are from Manchuria? Or does this mean we have about 10 political candidates who have been brainwashed into being assassins as per the movie? Is this another dual citizenship issue or a poorly researched tabloid headline?

        Yet none of them will be prosecuted, especially from the federal parliament because politicians are running a protection racket. #auspolِ
