So Howard was a liar too?

Wow - what PM hasn't lied?

Bob Hawke,
" By 1990 no Australian child will be living in poverty "


I think it is well known that he got the statement wrong, it wasn't quite what he was meant to say however I would prefer for a PM to fail trying to deliver something like that than to just leave it off the agenda.

Is there any difference between a lie, a broken promise and failing to deliver if it does not work?

I agree Bobby.....However some lies can lead to people being blown apart or lead to nations being sucked into illegal wars based on deceit.....The ALP are pathetic for not pursuing these issues further.....The Tories in the UK have no problem going after the Blair Governments deceit over Iraq and the Bali Bombings!!!

Huh Huh Huh



Agreed but neither Blair nor Howard will be looking out between bars.
They have got away scott free.


Even Bush isn't being pursued by the Democrats in the US.....They Republicans will spend multi millions trying to impeach Clinton for SFA and let Bush get away with murder....Go figure???

Huh Huh Huh

Clinton & Bush were both responsible for sanctions that
prevented water pipes & other sanitation products
from reaching Iraq which was responsible for over
100,000 people dying from cholera & other water borne diseases.
The true WMD was sanctions.

I think we voted for those sanctions too.
The pollys have a lot of blood on their hands of innocent people
- mostly little kids.
They did it in our name - shame on them.

BTW - they are doing it to Iran now.

Howard was a liar too?

I think the point is that he was the champion - he set a standard which will never be matched.

That is 1.

He does that about 300 more times and he could be JH's 3rd reserve in training.

Again that is 1

and you will never pay one cent of carbon tax - nobody will - not such a big lie at all really if it was at all.

She would need to do worse than that every day for about 3 years to catch Howard and most of them would need to be more definitive than this rubbish.

She would need to be in power for about 200 years at her current rate.

I don't agree PN - there are some decent politicians out there.

Australia - Brendan Nelson for example.
USA - John McCain is a good man.

You can find them if you look hard enough amongst the crap.


My hope is, that there are, which is why I say "almost all Pollies".

That said, IF there are any "decent politicians" out there, then they have one hell of a job in front of them, to save a quickly decaying system!




absolute purist decent pollies cannot rise to high office

the majority of voters are too stupid and/or lack the interest to choose a decent pollie anyway eg adel, Greens, skippy etc

the votes have always come down the choosing the "perceived" lesser of the two evils

through history it has always been easier to campaign why you shouldn't vote for the other side - stigmatising, demonising and victimising has always been the forefront. This was most evident in 2007 while some will also bring forth the Tampa affair and Hewson's GST gaffe.

I've watched many elections and gotta give it to Rudd - he was the best followed by Hawke. But both were individuals who did things their own way. Showing real personality. Abbott is very much in this mode

Now we have a new bred of maggot pollies in Gillard and Swan. Sticking by the script and offering the lowest form of politics.

Her now infamous "the real Julia" comes to mind as an example of sticking to the script.

Lowest form of politics is the false character assassination style - no not the gangnum style.

The sexist card
The misogynist card
The racist card

This current government also lacks the courage to admit it's mistakes. Offering instead to blame the Opposition for the problem because the Opposition is trying to point out the mistake to the electorate.



Well Maqqa, you're batting average isn't too good, which means you are almost invariably wrong!

So, we are still in there with a chance?

If you believe anything JuLIAR Gillard has to say on energy prices, then you must also believe the lies she spins to justify us having our military on foreign soil against peace loving people that have never done us any harm...
