I do not recall having information from that Agency

Kevin Andrews simultaneously shows he is stupid and dobs in the AFP.

He claims that despite whole government briefings by ASIO he had no idea what the agency thought about Dr Haneef's nefariousness and that he relied on the AFP for information.

That translates to: I didn't really do my job and Mick, the ball's in your court!

What ASIO knew (and everyone else ignored)

Apparently, ASIO informed the Government and the Australian Federal Police (and by that I mean you Kevin Andrews and you Mick Keelty) that Dr Mohammed Hanneef was not a threat to security. That was three days after the bombing (and 5 days before Kevvy revoked Dr Haneef's visa). The AFP openly acknowledge that they know ASIOs position. Being cops and not spies of course they just knew better I guess....

Clearly what ASIO really meant was (reading between the lines of course): arrest the Muslim bastard, revoke his visa and get him the hell out of here!

So they did.

Of course with this kind of balanced media reporting how could Kev, Keelty, et al. not act to protect at least Australia's reputation.

And why pray tell are ASIO only telling us now? It is just so hard to get a good whistleblower these days. Perhaps it would have been a breach of national security to show just how racist and inept our immigration minster really was?

As if he couldn't do that on his own... anyone remember his statements about African immigrants? They just don't fit in right, god knows that black skin sticks out a mile, and then, then they go and get bashed to death, which is so un-Australian.

Kevvy was always looking out for us... in response to what he saw as biased, pro-Muslim local case officers he ordered DIAC (DIC??) to bring out more Christians. Of course that fact that his department had investigated these claims and found them to be bogus counted for as much as ASIO's advice. God knows we all know what civil servants are worth.

So Haneef was a bungle but then we also discover this week that 15 people have had their visas revoked improperly and have since been released from detention. And yes it is Kevvy again who personally revoked 8 of them.

Well played Mr Andrews... well played.

You almost make Amanda Vanstone (the not conservative conservative) look merciful and competent by comparison and that is a tough ask!

Finally Ruddock informs us that we have the Coalition to thanks for saving us form the hordes of illegals and that is why Labor is able to make changes to Australia's detention policy.

Don't you just love how that argument works with immigration but not with say the economy?
