When the leader admits to "Stretching the truth" one can only expect that the followers would do likewise.

Tony wants you all to jump in the ocean and drown yourselves so as not to embarrass him for when he eventually talks long enough to actually say something sensible or truthful.

Don't like this post? It's about on-par with the crap that most of you are posting here just to make yourselves heard - rather than contribute anything sensible.

All this place is, is a place to rant - not many of you are convincing me it's otherwise. Time to grow up people, because Australia will need you when you do.

Both returned although why Garrett wasn't turfed I have no idea.
As for Wong I think she is an impressive senator and does well with the cards she's dealt.

Let me ask you something.

Assuming that the Coalition wins government and assuming that they WILL bankroll their $6b NBN project, and assuming that you REALLY do know what would be involved with the infrastructure side of the roll out, and assuming that 4 people get killed (for whatever reason) while the Coalition NBN is being rolled out.

Would Tony Abbott and the Coalition be responsible for those deaths?

Yes or no?

Of course they would, the liberals have set the precedent.
ANYONE'S death on ANY project that has ANY government funding will be sheeted home to minister responsilbe.
And of course they will be the first to condem their own Grin

Suck it up!

It's precisely that level of born-to-rule arrogance that could cost Abbott his tilt at the ultimate head job...

Abbott cleary thinks that he's the Messiah - and his attack-dog modus operandi is an impediment to harmonious and stable governance...

Hint: he's divisive and dogmatic and he doesn't to collaboration and co-operation very well at all!

Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer!

Much better to have a tennis player than a journalist.

I'd prefer neither. Not a journo, not a tennis player. WTF is the tennis dude going to do that make the people so happy?

Probably slightly more than a bald headed ex-rock star who is prepared to sell out all his views to get a job in Government?

Yet, the people have chosen him again.

The media has been very silent on Garrett. It's a miracle that he's retained his seat. If Labor manage to be returned - I can't see him being part of a new cabinet.

Really why?
The deaths would have occured under a government funded project just like the insulation ones so what would be the difference other than the party in government?

I hope not. The reason he got re-elected was his personality and the fact that it's a safe ALP seat. Definitely not that fact that he has a clue, because he doesn't.
