Why is it as soon as you start tak(l)ing of HIGHER STANDARDS or PRINCIPLES labor support(er)s suddenly seem unable to understand the argument.

longy

Yet you have trouble coming to grips with 'innocent until proven guilty'.

Cheesy

I understand it perfectly. it is you laborites and your endless accusations against abbott that fail that test.

fancy you arguing with our resident bush lawyer longy he knows everything I thought you would have known that..not only that if he says dont talk about anyone that isnt mentioned in the OP.. then he means it...

so no mention of Abbott on a THOMO thread... get it?

8:42am: It won't take Independent MP Craig Thomson, who is fighting hundreds of fraud charges, long to count up his dollars this morning.
He was expecting 200 people at a fundraiser in the city last night (at the glamorously named Celebrity Lounge in the Tattersall's Club) but he had just 30 people turn up.
Never fear. He claims he raised $50,000 in lead up to event and that NSW Labor owes him $35,000 for his mounting legal bills.

And the answer is 42 ....... I mean 30.

50,000 ???? might of cost that much to host the night.

Maybe I live in another world, the fund raisers I attend usually get hundreds to thousands showing up but I guess they are not to support a well known incompetent grub.

I am actually impressed he found 30 .... I wonder how many were family ? all 30.

I think aussie and his pet clown smith and dna might have been there.. serving the tea.

shame it didnt tell us how much he raised.. at least the other lefties facing criminal charges Obeid and Macdonald wont have the need to have fund raisers.. Cool

there is a HIGHER standard for MPs. I don't know why you don't know that.

Yes if you are not an MP you are allowed to steal and the laws don't matter. But of course if you are a Liberal MP then the laws don't matter anyway.

Why is it as soon as you start taking of HIGHER STANDARDS or PRINCIPLES labor supports suddenly seem unable to understand the argument.

There are hundreds of examples which show that you are only interested in applying higher standards to those you oppose.

Mr Abbott can be accused of multiple assults and bullying, telling all sorts of lies, setting up slush funds involved in dubious political set ups etc and all is good, no need for any standards what so ever.

accused. read and understand. not even a prima facie case made for them

You went feral demanding that Slipper stand down over allowance rorts now we find that Abbott had been doing the same thing and you defend him.

deliberate, repeated defrauding versus mistaken claims (as dne by half the MPs int he house)

Rubbish....
They all know the rules...Or should.

Either they are ALL rorting, or they are ALL innocent of any wrong-doing.

Trying to have $1 each-way doesn't cut it.....
