I join the hundreds of social media writers who have, over the last four years, written about the demonstrated stupidity of our current prime minister, Tony Abbott. Here’s one of my favourites from a year ago, ‘Tony Abbott’s pearls of wisdom‘:

Tony Abbott says some amazingly stupid things. His brain fart comments on gay people, women and climate change are some examples. Strolling around the internet I’ve managed to find some more pearls of wisdom that haven’t had the exposure of his more famous gaffes, and I happily present them here for your enjoyment.

Let’s start with this one:

The Opposition Leader said roads were critical to improving life across all facets of society.

“Better roads means better communities; better roads are good for our economy; they’re good for our society,” he said.

“They’re good for our physical and mental health.

“They’re even good for the environment because cars that are moving spew out far less pollution than cars that are standing still.”


So next time I feel a mental breakdown or the flu coming on I’ll visit a road. They are good for my health. We should all do it. Roads do good things for Australians.

I know what he was really trying to say, but let’s face it, he stuffed it up. This next one is a real gem:

Ever since I was old enough to understand the term, I have regarded myself as a conservationist.  As a child, I used to play in the gullies and creeks surrounding the Lane Cove National Park. I wasn’t as careful then as now about protecting fauna, such as the red-bellied black snake, but I loved the bush for its potential for adventure and sense of solitude.In the valley behind our house, I first learnt to sleep under the stars. On canoeing trips, I learnt to read a map. On student bush walks, I developed a sense of direction.


As I said over at The AIMN, he no longer kills red-bellied black snakes and despises people who keep lights on. No wonder people such as Andrew Bolt rate him more credible than most of the world’s scientists. Scientists spend at least three years studying at university to become knowledgeable in their field. Tony Abbott reads maps. While floating down a river. How could you doubt him? How could you doubt a person who has a sense of direction because he walked in the bush yet needs a map to paddle a canoe?

This one is interesting:

Tony Abbott says he now has the “authority” to keep election promises. He admitted he had broken them in the past but said it was not his fault.


Well whose fault was it? Blame that ‘carbon tax’ I suppose.

I like this one:

Someone who’s earning $50,000 should be encouraged to move to $100,000.


Sounds fair enough to me. Tomorrow we’ll all line up to see the boss and ask for a $50K raise. Just tell him that Tony encouraged it (not that we’d need much encouragement).

This can’t be true:

Look, people should be polite to the Prime Minster. It doesn’t matter what they think of her policies or her government, they should be polite to her. That is the respect that the senior leadership of this country ought to be given and people certainly shouldn’t be disruptive of the Parliament.


Must be the new Tony we keep hearing about.

This is more like the old Tony:

Well, Kochie, I think the people of western Sydney want a plan, not a visit. They want a plan to ease cost of living pressures, a plan to ease traffic congestion and a plan to make the streets and community safer and the Coalition has real solutions to all these issues. We’ll build the WestConnex, we’ll end the carbon tax, we’ll stop the boats, we’ll stop the guns. Now, I think this is a big step forward for the people of Sydney.


Wow! How long have the boats been making it all the way to Western Sydney?

During a visit to Western Sydney (yes, the place where people shouldn’t visit) he said:

“We will bring in more trees and better soils, there will be incentives, not penalties and a green army for our degraded bushland and waterways under pressure”.


Where the hell are they going to pinch the trees from. Bring in from where? Maybe he’ll introduce a policy that all boat people have to bring a tree with them.

continue

And finally:

I’ll be going to the National Press Club tomorrow (31 Jan). I’ll take questions then. Joe Hockey and Christopher Pyne will be taking media queries this afternoon.

History shows us that he ran away from questions asked.

I really don’t think Abbott tries to be an idiot. It just comes naturally.

Now we jump forward to this present day and an article in the Guardian by Katharine Murphy, ‘Navy entered Indonesian waters after wind, tide distractions: Tony Abbott‘. Tony Abbott, I’m afraid to say, has raised the bar of stupidity ever higher. This quote (which gained wide coverage in the social media two days ago) is breathtaking after it was revealed that Australian navy boats had entered Indonesian waters:

“On the high seas all sorts of things happen; there are winds, there are tides, there are other things that they’re focusing on,” he said.

“I have nothing but total respect for the professionalism of our naval personnel, for the professionalism of our customs personnel but, even people who are at the very top of their game, even people who are the very best at their job, will occasionally make mistakes.

“Test cricketers occasionally drop catches, great footballers occasionally miss tackles and, regretfully, there were a couple of occasions when this mistake was made – but it won’t happen again.”

He really comes out with some unbelievable garbage but this one leaves me absolutely speechless, other than to say that is now official: Tony Abbott is an idiot. A stark raving mad lunatic. A total buffoon. As for the first part of his statement, Mobius Echo commented here two days ago that:

No other words for Abbott come to mind. I’ve been in cyclones and hurricanes on warships, and mind you this was pre-GPS, dedicated military satellites, netcentric warfare systems and situational awareness, and we always knew where we were.

I’d believe Mobius over Tony Abbott any day of the week.

And let’s repeat this sentence from Abbott:

“Test cricketers occasionally drop catches, great footballers occasionally miss tackles and, regretfully, there were a couple of occasions when this mistake was made – but it won’t happen again.”

We can now all be relieved that no more catches will be dropped by Test cricketers.

this is in a room full of her peers...what a sorry sight she is.

Is Abbott an idiot cods?

He's said some pretty stupid things....and even not said anything (mute) on national television. You must remember the embarrassing video that's been posted on this forum a few times.

Did he make a fool of himself?

Surely if SHY made a fool of herself, Tony must have looked equally foolish.

What do you think? ....andrei?

I think there is a thread about our education system, which is probably on par or better than that of the USA and GB, but nowhere near the standards of Japan or China.

well, to be fair, he doesn't claim to be the suppository of wisdom

SHY seems to think that the Aussie TV show "Sea Patrol" was the real thing.  ROFLMAO Her appearance at the Senate Inquiry was hilarious.  ;D

another labor whinge topic.

you had seven years and stuffed the country.

GREED.

if there are high taxes under Abbott there was also high taxes under Gillard and Rudd.

and high Unemployment because the people of this country don't care about other citizens of the country.

Really pansi?
Most Aussies i have come across either here or in Australia have a knowledge of say modern history about he same as i had when i was 12.

In our school curriculum in Britain we covered Napoleon, the crimea war, Russian Revolution, French Revolution, WW1.
Many - my wife included - admit the Aussie education system teaches you two fifths of bugger all on history.

How about languages? I left with French and German taught at school from 11 and 12 respectively.
Few Aussies i met spoke a second, let alone third language - unless they were from migrant families, even then it tended to reach down 2nd gen only.

In my cursory review of the AU education system, I feel fortunate to have been educated in Great Britain.

Andrei.Hicks wrote on Feb 2^nd, 2014 at 6:22am:

Isn't funny you went to university and got your degree where I left school at 15 and went and got a trade.

What do you earn andrei you have said you are on $150,00 p/a lets just say you get $160,00 p/a now and you work 40 hours a week plus you have said you work a couple of hours at home each night and 8 hours over the weekend. So you work about 58 hours p/w so you are on about $55.00 per hour.

If my trade I can charge $60.00 per hour and only work Monday to Friday and still earn more then you and I have my nights and weekend as my own.

So who is a idiot now with all your education and me with none and I get more then you. I bet you hate that.

Why add anything. The post of the Professor says more than I ever could add to prove my point.

The education system in Australia was excellent until the 80's. When corporal punishment was abolished, kids became disruptive and began bullying teachers. Learning the basics of education became a secondary consideration. Teachers lost heart in their work and it's been a downhill slide since then. Today even a student who fails his/her HSC can become a teacher. Brighter students know that their talents would be wasted teaching.

Most of us make typos but if grammatical errors keep being repeated it becomes a bit tedious.

Nothing annoys me more than an "an" is thrust before a wrong word - one time it was only used before a word beginning with a vowel or a silent consonant like "honest".

Today, English has become a sloppy-spoken language and very irritating when used by those considering themselves wise.

Andrei in all fairness - there are plenty of racist and sexist remarks made here and they are generally ignored unless they're directed at a member. Badmouthing politicians is something that's been going on here since this forum opened. These criticisms shouldn't be taken as personal insults.

I didn't expect you to discuss it Andrei. George must have misunderstood his reason for being banned. It's just that he's a good poster and I hate seeing good posters eventually leave because they get suspended too many times.

I have seen a lot worse said here about Gillard - so tend to be a bit immune to insults about politicians. Some of the posts were slanderous, but they were usually ignored by the moderators.

It is very hard when we see politicians from the parties we support being badmouthed, but it is part and parcel of a political forum. I'm a Greens supporter and see some terrible things written about the party senators, so skim over all the really nasty bits.  Adelcrow's comments are mild in comparison to some of the stuff that's posted here about the Greens and Labor.

Politicians are open slather unfortunately.

I don't have an issue with the bias of individual moderators so long as the moderators as a whole have a diverse range of views.

In my view a Moderator can be as biased as he likes on political opinions as long as he remains unbiased in moderating.

To me they are two completely different areas.

I think that's where old LW struggled, but that's just my personal opinion.

I seem to be called an idiot at least few times every week - I typically find it funny as it mostly comes from someone about half as clever as a dead platypus who responds this way when he can't refute what I had posted.

I don't think LW was any different to you in that regard (so far), only a slight bias in his moderation.

I'll admit I'm guessing on LW and only going on varying comments I read.

As a poster my interaction with moderators were very limited and when LW was one I wasn't around very much.

Moderating and posting should be kept completely separate and is something I'll always do.

You are right Perceptions. You and Andrei are doing a good job tidying up Ozpolitic. The less bad language used the better quality the posts. Some of us have gotten so used to crassness that we just accept it.

While I agree swearing is over used there is nothing in the rules to say it should not be used. PN is forcing his own personal opinion onto the forum.
So much for free speech. ::)

In part it says:

It has become apparent over time that no matter what may be done via the system, to censor problem words, particularly the F & C's and Racial abuse, members continue to "invent" ways to try to get around the spell checker. .... I'm sure it is apparent to all members that they should not use certain words or invent ways to suggest those words, SO AS FROM NOW, IF I SEE ANY USE OF THOSE WORDS OR APPARENT TRIES TO GET AROUND THE SPELL CHECKER, THEN THAT MEMBER MAY WELL BE GIVEN A SUSPENSION. The length of the suspension will be determined by whether it is a first up offense or whether the member is a serial offender!

Everybody had fair warning and I noticed certain posters continued with the swear words in question.  ;)

It's hard to find a happy balance when it comes to free speech Skippy. When a forum has lax or no moderation only those who are the most vulgar and abusive are given free speech. The other members don't have free speech because they are silenced by profanities and overwhelming abuse.

Perhaps Perceptions is sick of the complaints by the more mild mannered and is giving us some guidelines - not only to make his job easier, but to allow everyone to have their say peacefully.

I support this rather than going to the other extreme where people are forced off a board due to those who have no self control.

The swearing takes the place of the no-story - a crutch for modern writers.

Other crutches in movies is constant kissing - a handy filler in scrips.

John S wrote on Feb 1^st, 2014 at 3:10pm:

I join the hundreds of social media writers who have, over the last four years, written about the demonstrated stupidity of our current prime minister, Tony Abbott. Here’s one of my favourites from a year ago, ‘Tony Abbott’s pearls of wisdom‘: Tony Abbott says some amazingly stupid things. His brain fart comments on gay people, women and climate change are some examples. Strolling around the internet I’ve managed to find some more pearls of wisdom that haven’t had the exposure of his more famous gaffes, and I happily present them here for your enjoyment. Let’s start with this one: The Opposition Leader said roads were critical to improving life across all facets of society. “Better roads means better communities; better roads are good for our economy; they’re good for our society,” he said. “They’re good for our physical and mental health. “They’re even good for the environment because cars that are moving spew out far less pollution than cars that are standing still.” So next time I feel a mental breakdown or the flu coming on I’ll visit a road. They are good for my health. We should all do it. Roads do good things for Australians. I know what he was really trying to say, but let’s face it, he stuffed it up. This next one is a real gem: Ever since I was old enough to understand the term, I have regarded myself as a conservationist.  As a child, I used to play in the gullies and creeks surrounding the Lane Cove National Park. I wasn’t as careful then as now about protecting fauna, such as the red-bellied black snake, but I loved the bush for its potential for adventure and sense of solitude.In the valley behind our house, I first learnt to sleep under the stars. On canoeing trips, I learnt to read a map. On student bush walks, I developed a sense of direction. As I said over at The AIMN, he no longer kills red-bellied black snakes and despises people who keep lights on. No wonder people such as Andrew Bolt rate him more credible than most of the world’s scientists. Scientists spend at least three years studying at university to become knowledgeable in their field. Tony Abbott reads maps. While floating down a river. How could you doubt him? How could you doubt a person who has a sense of direction because he walked in the bush yet needs a map to paddle a canoe? This one is interesting: Tony Abbott says he now has the “authority” to keep election promises. He admitted he had broken them in the past but said it was not his fault. Well whose fault was it? Blame that ‘carbon tax’ I suppose. I like this one: Someone who’s earning $50,000 should be encouraged to move to $100,000. Sounds fair enough to me. Tomorrow we’ll all line up to see the boss and ask for a $50K raise. Just tell him that Tony encouraged it (not that we’d need much encouragement). This can’t be true: Look, people should be polite to the Prime Minster. It doesn’t matter what they think of her policies or her government, they should be polite to her. That is the respect that the senior leadership of this country ought to be given and people certainly shouldn’t be disruptive of the Parliament. Must be the new Tony we keep hearing about. This is more like the old Tony: Well, Kochie, I think the people of western Sydney want a plan, not a visit. They want a plan to ease cost of living pressures, a plan to ease traffic congestion and a plan to make the streets and community safer and the Coalition has real solutions to all these issues. We’ll build the WestConnex, we’ll end the carbon tax, we’ll stop the boats, we’ll stop the guns. Now, I think this is a big step forward for the people of Sydney. Wow! How long have the boats been making it all the way to Western Sydney? During a visit to Western Sydney (yes, the place where people shouldn’t visit) he said: “We will bring in more trees and better soils, there will be incentives, not penalties and a green army for our degraded bushland and waterways under pressure”. Where the hell are they going to pinch the trees from. Bring in from where? Maybe he’ll introduce a policy that all boat people have to bring a tree with them. continue

When you call a Rhodes' scholar an idiot, you have to present the slur grammatically.
