Despite the sh-lacking from Labor the Greens do not have the courage to vote against Labor when Parliament sits again

They will take it and take it like the lowly only to yap at their betters

They are too cowardly and immoral

Courage is not a virtue associated with todays left.  Quite the opposite really.

But but the Greens are the moral bastions of the Australian Parliament?????

That they continue to consistently poll at 11 per cent is an indictment on the Australian people!!!!!

moral??? hardly. they support gay marriage and euthanasia and are pro abortion being totally decriminalised as well as decriminalising all drugs. None of those are 'moral' positions.

Hehehe I was being faecetious.

Speaking of courage , or lack thereof, why didn't Abbott brink up asylum boats during his recent meeting with Indonesia's president?

I know. I was just furthering your comment. Greens are an AMORAL party with no ability to compromise.

As Julie Bishop noted in an interview last night, the Liberal's policy on asylum seekers is well articulated. Indonesia clearly knows the Liberals position. They have been discussing this issue with Indonesia through a number of forums.

Another inane beat up from Labor.

Who are you to decide what is morally acceptable? with polling showing over 70% of Australians want to see a change in legislation to allow gay marriage, how do you decide that it's immoral? aren't the morals of the day determined by the standards society sets? 40 yrs ago, you could have said it was immoral and most if not all would have agreed ... I'm not so sure that applies today

That Labor continues to raise this does them no favours whatsoever - it merely draws attention back to their own policy failure.

morality is NOT defined that way. Otherwise the murder of Jews in nazi germany was a moral act on the basis of being popular.

fine, then how do you define what is moral? ...and I think you would find if you ask most people if it what happened to the Jews was morally correct, even during WWII most would have said no ...
