Congratulations to New South Wales

They've elected an American-born woman who describes herself as a "lifelong
feminist" as their premier. She is the first former American and the first
woman to hold the job.

Interesting times ahead!

And she wasn't *elected* in the normal sense of that word in a
democracy. She was only "elected" by the parliamentary wing of her
own political party and, as that mob is in power in NSW, their party
leader becomes Premier by default.

The only female Premier of an Australian State who has been elected by
the population at large in a general election, is Queensland's Anna
Bligh. She was initially handed the job by the former Premier(1) and
then went on to win in her own right at the latest general election.
(That says a hell of a lot about the quality of our opposition which
failed to make headway against a totally dysfunctional Government!)

having been appointed by Anna to the Americas as some sort of
trade/promotional functionary on behalf of Queensland.

Cheers, Phred.

Then all is not lost. ;-)

The Roman Man Boy Love Church treats women as second class human
beings. That is true today.

promote her to Pope.

I just googled and she was born in Las Vegas! That's my state! An
originally Nevada babe is politically powerful in New South Wales. Just
chokes me up. That's the American way.
What goes on in NSW stays in NSW. Word!

And even in an untenable situation (such as spousal abuse) divorce is wrong.

Two Catholic doctors in South America were excommunicated for performing
an abortion. The female was carrying twins, and it was determined that
she could not carry them to term without significant risk due to her
size (she was nine years old). The pregnancy was, not surprisingly,
determined to be due to rape, since a girl that age can't give consent
(her stepfather had been having sex with her for three years). The
doctors appealed to the Vatican. They declined to intervene in local
affairs.

Sometimes, you just have to do the right thing.
