And what a pair of monkeys we got in Rudd and Swan!!
Then in came the Kath & Kim bogan and her Orstraaaaaaya policies.
She then bolloxed all that up.
Pay back the debt, stop the shyte people coming in, stop the boats, and stop this carbon tax.
Beautiful!!!
Natural order is looking like being restored after just one term!
The "natural order," eh? You seem to think debt is something outside of nature, but Australia has nearly always had a deficit, as have most countries - and now more than ever.
Just as most families have debts called mortgages.
And as for stopping "shyte" people coming in - how do you do that? People's shytness is not on the immigration criteria, and Abbott's not planning on stopping immigration to Australia - or, for that matter, stopping "shyte" people from having babies.
You're right though: Abbott has done an amazing job of getting the Libs up to forming a government after one term. But it's built on a mirage. The issues the Libs championed have nothing to do with anything. This election has, essentially, been about nothing.
We might as well have just focused on Brad and Ange's latest spat, or LiLo's stint in rehab.
Meanwhile, the world grows and the temperature rises. And we sit in Australia, fiddling over a few thousand "shyte" people.
It's not Labor that needs to go, it's the fantasies of the Australian electorate. If Abbott gets in, I guess, we've earned him.
