1. If some one would post a video less than two minutes
I might watch it. Until then I'll find a transcript.

3. @5:35 awkward moment....
Edited on Tue Mar-15-11 04:02 PM by DRex
where the presenter essentially says "well, we can't really trust you, but I suppose Assange will let us know the truth if you're lying..."

That stings a little. At least she made the point of saying it is Aussie policy not to extradite to countries with capital punishment, but I was a little concerned that she seemed to wary of 'the hypothetical' extradition of Assange.

4. OMG, she's a dead ringer for the evil litigator in the movie "Michael Clayton"!

5. She's giving me the creeps.
And she wants to get Assange's head. Badly. :(

6. Very carefully she associated Assange
with drug trafficking, human trafficking, terrorism and murder. Governments and corporations have a lot to hide.

10. Yeah, I noticed that too.
That was subtle and she repeated that trick several times. I'm sure that she stopped giggling as soon as she was out the studio, her future doesn't look too bright IMHO.

8. That's good TV.
You'd never ever see anything like it in the USA. Our media are far too gutless.
And of course they are complicit in what the government does. The 4th estate
is a bunch of fat republican ass munchers.

12. I really loved Assange in this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXbCwq4ewBU

Mmm mmm mmm.

The OP video is hysterical. The Prime Minister should know nervous laughs and looking down and to the left are dead giveaways. :D
