What the Dogwhistler really means ...	... and the happy chappies who tune in

The dearth (death) of values of any kind under John "The Pied Piper from Hell" Howard has contributed to the sickening story of the abused girl from Werribee.

The parents of these boys, like so many Australians, have been put to sleep by the apathy encouraged by John Howard's "relaxed and comfortable" message. They may have been able to distinguish right from wrong once upon a time, but they certainly have not passed the distinction on to their children.

Howard's message is this: "Everything my government does is for your good. Hundreds of refugees subjected to years behind razor wire is for your good, because they will not attack you there or take your jobs. But I not only care for you, I also care for the 600,000 Iraqis who have died in the war that will never end, nor should it. Had they lived they would certainly have enjoyed democracy. As for the so-called corruption of my cherished ministers year after year, let me assure you that they have done nothing wrong, they are fine people who have your interests at heart. And remember, when you hear the sound of my voice, so soft, so soothing, you will slowly drift into sleep, with the warm knowledge that everything I have done is for y-o-u-r v-e-r-y o-w-n good."

Here is Child Psycholgogist Dr John Cheetham Attack similar to Nazis, psychologist says:

The acts of up to a dozen youths filmed sexually abusing and degrading a teenage girl were similar to the treatment of Jews in Nazi Germany, a child psychologist says.

"It's the sort of behaviour you would expect in a prison camp. It's something like a flashback to the Second World War and the way the Jews were treated," Dr Cheetham told the Nine Network.

Those involved in the attack were likely to be angry, resentful poor achievers who had not developed a set of values.

"Somewhere along the line they have not learned to have a social conscience and to respect the dignity of human beings," he said.

John Howard's "greatest" achievement as Prime Minister has been to attack and bury the concept of "social conscience". It's something afflicting the elite, latte-cum-Chardonnay set. It's akin to being a socialist, a communist. In ten years he has dogwhistled Australians into a gutless disregard for the suffering of others, and he has done it in the most dishonourable way, by appealing subliminally to their basest, most selfish instincts. That it also happens in other countries reflects the cold-blooded ideology of his ruling mates: "Me and mine and to hell with everyone else."

The DVD boys of Werribee are a tip of the iceberg. The same is happening in other schools. They are the disastrous result of what amounts to the neo-Nazification of Australia. Only under John Howard it is called Family Values.
