I'm starting to like this Lambie woman, she looks like she might keep things interesting https://au.news.yahoo.com/a/24378589/pm-risked-daughters-safety-lambie/ |

Another Fruit Cake I think!!
Rabbitting On about Abbott having his daughters at his victory celebration being a security concern. WHAT A LOT OF CRAP!! Lambie should go back to polishing her army boots. |
Title: Re: Abbotts risks his daughters safety Post by Dsmithy70 on Jul 3rd, 2014 at 3:58pm
I asked during the election if anyone could provide a reason for the daughters being paraded about that didn't involve rednecks & sex.
I'm still awaiting an answer ;) |

She wasn't going on about the victory celebration, AAP just used that photo, Lambie was going on about him parading his daughters during the election campaign. Which he did and did often. As a side note, the righties on here then complained that people should leave Abbotts daughters out of any discussion ... go figure :D :D. |

Yeah, I agree. I can't see the 'grave danger' security angle though, but unnecessary and only done to 'prove' he is loved by women (well, at least loved by those obliged to love him ::)) |
Title: Re: Abbotts risks his daughters safety Post by philperth2010 on Jul 3rd, 2014 at 4:08pm
Abbott has made his family an issue no one else.....If Abbott wants to keep his family out of the limelight he should not have thrust it onto them in the first place.....Abbott cannot complain about his families privacy when he used them to promote his image and further his ambition.....Abbott has drawn attention to his family for his own purposes and cannot complain about any scrutiny they are now under!!!

Title: Re: Abbotts risks his daughters safety Post by Armchair_Politician on Jul 3rd, 2014 at 4:34pm
Never met him, but has read his books. I suppose that qualifies her as an expert on all things Abbott. Lambie enlisted in the Australian Army in 1989, spending over ten years in the Australian Army specialising in transport management and military policing. She achieved the lofty rank of corporal but at one point was charged and reduced in rank after assaulting a fellow soldier while intoxicated. I suppose her extensive military experience and training in close personal protection also qualifies her to speak on matters of security as it relates to the PM's daughters too!
She's a joke and should've kept her mouth shut rather than show everyone how little she understands because clearly the AFP, which is charged with the safety and security of the PM and his family would've never put his daughters knowingly into a dangerous situation. |

I doubt you need to be a mental giant to understand that if a Pollie parades their adult children around during an election campaign, they are attracting attention which would not otherwise arise. Lambie's basic point holds water ~ Abbott was willing to risk adverse attention to his Family to flog his political ambitions. |

Is that your answer to my question about which part of what she said today was a disaster? Further, she is absolutely right to prioritise the interests of the State which elected her above the national interest if ever there is a conflict between the two. That is her responsibility.

Every Australian has a duty to Australia(like voting, do it), her being from and representing Tas means she should look after their interests. She is there to review legislation and decide if it is in the interest of Australia. Tasmania is part of Australia and an obvious concern for her. What do you expect? |

Lambie seems like she has got a bit of personality, which is not a bad characteristic.
If she wants to stick the boot into Abbott, when he deserves it, then more power to her. As Abbott is the current PM, it should surprise nobody that he will be the centre of political attacks when his government acts in ways that people do not like. I reckon that she would get equally stuck in if Shorten, or anyone else, was supporting things she believed were not right for her constituents, state, or country. (in THAT order Grendel, that quote from Q&A that you thought made her look stupid backfired on you, because SHE certainly comes across better than you did with your miscues and misconceptions about what you think are her Senatorial responsibilities.) She also does not seem the type who will back down from a fight, or back away from what she believes, so good for her, in my books. While not many posters can be proud of their contributions to this thread, Jon Smith's grossly inappropriate comments about Abbott's kids was an all time low for him. It was not funny, in any way, and showed a breathtaking lack of maturity, as well as decency. Others joined in with disgusting personal insinuations about Abbott and his daughters, and I sincerely recommend that they go back and edit, or remove their posts of that type, if they do not want to get an enforced holiday for their misdemeanors. Then we got a dose of Grendel. Good to see his myopic inability to self appraise is as staggering as ever, while he continues to describe himself as unbiased, and politically slightly left of centre. ;D :D ;D :D ;D The fact that he defends ultra right idiocy with determined consistency, seems to have escaped only one persons notice. HIS. |

Lambie enlisted in the Australian Army in 1989,[3] spending over ten years in the Australian Army specialising in transport management and military policing.[4] She achieved the rank of corporal but at one point was charged and reduced in rank after assaulting a fellow soldier while intoxicated.[5] During a field exercise in July 1997 she suffered injuries that resulted in severe backpain. Over some time she worked to regain her fitness and at one point had a breast reduction procedure paid for by the military in an attempt to alleviate pain she suffered. One day away from leaving for her first operational deployment in East Timor she discovered that due to her previous injuries she was not able to support the weight of her body armour and was eventually discharged for medical reasons (thoracic pain) in 2000.[6] She since been an advocate for veterans with the Returned Services League and involved in fundraising with the Burnie Chamber of Commerce, the Country Women's Association and Rotary.[4]
Dispute with the Department of Veterans Affairs[edit] Lambie then commenced a protracted battle with the Department of Veterans Affairs which was not resolved until the case reached the Administrative Appeals Tribunal in 2006. In the meantime the department had deemed that she was a malingerer and ceased paying her military pension in addition to the medical costs her condition was incurring. A private investigations firm took five hours of footage of Lambie performing various household tasks and this evidence formed the main basis for the department's refusal, however they later withdrew this evidence which resulted in the Administrative Appeals Tribunal accepting many of her claims but not those such as cupping therapy and gym memberships.[7] Political career[edit] Her political involvement began volunteering for Tasmanian Australian Labor Party senator Nick Sherry. In November 2011 she joined the Liberal Party of Australia and later decided to run for preselection for the Division of Braddon but was unable to afford the $2,000 nomination fee. Lambie has stated that she soon spoke with Liberal state director Sam McQuestin who she alleges told her that she would only be required to pay $100 of the nomination fee as he had located somebody who was willing to pay the rest of the fee on her behalf. After eventually losing the preselection ballot Lambie decided to announce that she would still run in the election as an independent but was later informed that under the party rules she had now voided her membership. When told of this she “flew off the handle and bolted", Lambie has said that she believes that she was encouraged to run for preselection to achieve a spoiler effect in the branch to allow Sam McQuestin's preferred candidate to win and stated: "I didn't realise that Liberal preselections were … forums for nasty factional fights... After I found out the truth, I felt used and soon resigned from the Liberal Party." She then turned to the new party Palmer United Party founded by billionaire Clive Palmer as she said “I just didn’t have the money like the big players did for advertising.”[8] In the 2013 federal election, Lambie picked up Tasmania's sixth Senate seat. She prevailed with a margin of about 15,000 votes over Liberal hopeful Sally Chandler and Robbie Swan from the Australian Sex Party. She has credited the final result of her win to "the big man upstairs" also saying "Once it gets to that point, it's up to God upstairs. There's not much else I can do about it."[9] Lambie has also stated that she prays every morning and night.[10] In October 2013 she launched an attack on the The Greens, accusing them of having "destroyed all hope in Tasmania" and saying that the party should be subject to a Senate inquiry over the state's high unemployment rate. She said she had been gathering "intelligence" on Greens activities and when she had enough she would "throw it across the table".[11] On the topic of National Service Lambie has stated that she supports a reintroduction: "Maybe it is time we placed national service back on the agenda but reconfigured to suit today’s conditions … It’s time to teach [our youth] some respect, loyalty and honour."[12] She has also stated that she opposes gay marriage: "… where we are not prepared to compromise is the word ‘marriage’. We believe this sacred word is used for a commitment between a man and a woman … We are not prepared to compromise or question that of a higher power … the word marriage belongs to Australian grassroots, morals and those of the church." In June 2014 Lambie referred to the Prime Minister |

You highlighted it I'm suffering PTSD from Soren's heartless attack :( Besides its a legit question, It reads like you want to use these events against her But you've posted numerous times against gay marriage You've post in support for logging in Tassie You've posted conscription is not a bad idea before You love jumping on the ANZAC spirit almost as much as a pollie. So are you supporting Lambie or chief mud thrower? |

I'm positive that the AFP knows far more about personal protection and security than someone who received a less than honourable discharge from the Army after assaulting a fellow soldier and being demoted.

I'll say, ex-Corporal Truckie Lambie is another exceptionally silly politician to have a good laugh at. She can keep the equally ditsy Sarah Hanson-Young company when they are both in Canberra. Party leaders have been taking their family on stage on election nights for years. |

Noone is suggesting otherwise, however, only Abbott has so heavily relied upon his family during (and as integral, planned deployment weapons) the election campaign |

They do it in the states and nobody cares. The Clinton's did it as well as Busch Jnr.

Sure, and so what. So what if Abbott does? Well, it ties up additional security staff, and as Lambie says, places them at a risk they would not otherwise be exposed to, however slight that be. |
