AN AUSTRALIAN candidate for the national Parliament was yesterday forced to apologise for a personal website which reportedly carried hundreds of lewd jokes, including a remark from him about "tit banter".
Conservative Liberal Party candidate Kevin Baker has since shut down his forum site for Mini Cooper car enthusiasts, which also reportedly contained references to incest and racism.
The Sydney Daily Telegraph reported that the website included jokes about the Pope being a paedophile, and others which made light of incest.
It said that Mr Baker, who is the director of a children's charity, had written in one post: "Seems a bit like 'Tit Banter'..." - AFP.

Australians are crude. When they open their mouths, it sounds like a toilet is talking. I heard one say "Oi Shiela, why don't you take a good long 'ard pull on the snotty end of my fuck stick!"
All battles are fought by scared men who’d rather be some place else

WikiLeaks soldier jailed 35 years
US ARMY Private Bradley Manning, 25 was sentenced to 35 years in jail and dishonourably discharged yesterday for the biggest breach of official secrets in American history.
Military judge Colonel Denise Lind delivered her verdict after a months-long trial.
Manning had passed a massive cache of classified government documents to whistle-blowing site WikiLeaks.
Manning appeared ashen-faced as he awaited the verdict, which came in a less than two-minute statement by Lind.
He was convicted of espionage and other crimes last month, having earlier admitted being the source of hundreds of thousands of battlefield reports from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and confidential US diplomatic cables.

Top China official Jiang Jiemin probed
A HIGH-RANKING Chinese official who oversees state-owned firms is being probed for "serious disciplinary violations", official media reported yesterday, as the country's new leaders intensify a clampdown on corruption.
The investigation of Jiang Jiemin follows several graft cases against top officials and the dramatic trial of fallen Communist Party heavyweight Bo Xilai for alleged bribery, embezzlement and abuse of power.
In a brief dispatch, the state-run Xinhua news agency said Jiang "is being investigated over suspected serious disciplinary violations", a term used as a euphemism for corruption by officials.
Xinhua said it obtained the information about Jiang, head of the State-Owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council, from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the ruling Communist Party.
The commission is the party's anti-corruption watchdog.
Xinhua did not immediately provide further details.
Jiang has a seat on the party's central committee, which has more than 200 members. The State Council is China's cabinet.
President Xi Jinping, who took office in March, has vowed to oust corrupt officials all the way from low-level "flies" to high-ranking "tigers" amid fears graft could threaten the party's hold on power. - AFP.

I wish AFP guy would also include links of his sources to compare. If the Aussie thing is true, then that means 4chan members cannot join the parliament :(
