From Snuff at LA’s site ( this is stolen material )
Speaking of Sattler, I’m reminded now of one afternoon when he addressed an auditorium of Journalism students at Murdoch Uni. Not only were we required to attend, which I didn’t mind, we had to write a report on his visit. After 45 minutes of him rambling on about how he was god’s gift, albeit misunderstood, we woke up for the Q and A. It didn’t improve much, as he ignored the questions and continued with his riveting elaborations on how he was actually all things to all people, until …
“In your opinion, was land tenure fixed and heritable in Australia in 1769 ?”
After I’d repeated the question, at his request, the smoke started streaming out of his ears and he bellowed, “What, this Mabo rubbish ?” You can guess the headline for every assignment submitted.

Always a source of opinion; never a source of factual information.
Nothing changes here.

Oh Dear, Howard’s rattling on about Pensioners AGAIN.

What the fuck does he know about the subject.
Perhaps, if he were to regularly volunteer as a Meals on Wheels driver instead of pontificating from a position of total ignorance, he might be doing something useful with his otherwise purposeless existence.

He has moments of lucidity ; perhaps when he stops drinking.
