He got lucky, and should just retire gracefully, instead of tarnishing his record further.


immediately after he quit he was offered a $2M/yr job as chariman of a UK firm (forget which now). which he rejected.


How convenient.   ha ha ha.  Grin

You are a pathelogical liar.



I could probably find the link but we've already discovered that you just ignore facts when they are inconvenient - just liek Flannerys predictions which you now say DIDNT HAPPEN - despite being recorded.

you are losing it...

no the correct translation is that you claimed that Flannery DIDNT make the well reported predictions that he did even after being shown the links from multiple sources. makes you look pretty silly.

Just a few examples of the Costello you think has been rejected by private industry...

most of us can only dream of such 'rejection'.

Good to see youve back away from your $2m/year job.   A liar with as much experience as you knows when to cut his losses.

Appointed to a few boards is pretty stock standard for an ex MP.  Small fry to your claim though.

well thats why I dont plan to find a link to his job offer. why would I bother. You will only say it is fake or its from a some media source you  dont agree with or... whatever.

Your credibility died when you said flannery didnt make the predictions even flannery himself admitted to. that makes you a dunce.

No, I only call you a bare faced liar, when you are lying. 

Just happens to be most of the time lately.

BTW, you also lied about "planing to find a link" because you said earlier you were, now you arent.

so do you accept that flannery made the predictions yet or are you still closing your eyes and pretending he didnt?? given your embarrassing flogging over that one I wouldnt be parading your 'integrity' right now, if I were you.

Squirming away again by going off topic ?

Simply show the $2m/year offer to Costello or STFU.

There's a very small arrow up the top that you need to click.

Top of the thread, on the left side, just to the left of "Peter Costello" (under the word "Pages").

Click that little arrow to reverse the order of display.
Or click anywhere on the the words "Peter Costello. Professional sook ".

He is an economic disaster.


Worst treasurer ever.


More historical revisionism Woody.


was also treasurer during australias greatest ever economic prosperity. funny how that bit gets forgotten.

but of course there is Swan - the idiot that spent $300B to forestall a recession only to have it come back a few years later with no money this time. complete fool.


No i bring that point up quite often because the depth and breadth of that boom was global and probably the largest ever. It culminated in the largest crash of all time, where we suddenly realised how tiny the 20 billion surplus was in real terms when you are loosing 120+ billion in tax income over a few years and what the big sell off of our national asetts has cost the country as we now have to rebuild it. Never mind the record personal debt we were left with and the largest mortgage repayment to income ratio in the countries history.

Costello was an excellent accountant as i have said many times. I respect what he did and his discipline and control over Howards financial incompetence was well executed. But he is no treasurer, he has little vision and no inspiration. Best decision yet not to make him chairman.
