The title here is honest - Abbott did say that and the post is about that topic ?

The poem is amusing.

The only problem is that you disagree with what it is saying or that you don't like that it is pretty close to the mark.

It is a worthwhile topic as the statement made by Abbott is clearly debatable. I would think with the trickery and stunts we have seen that the current government are clearly more childish than the last.

HU HUM...

cods’ real problem is—the criticism of the Libs and their leader is 100% spot on.

Hard to defend the indefensible, eh cods?

Don't forget Pickering ..... although I'm sure he meant too, he just never got around to it ....

this is truly a compliment and the mark of a mature politician (dare i say , an adult).
we neither want , nor need politicians to have ideas.

there are plenty of smart people in the private sector who have plenty of good ideas.
politicians as professional media tarts who are not deep thinkers and wouldnt cut it in the private sector should stick to what they can do best.

1  set the rules for the "ideas" people in the private sector to play by.
2  ensure the playing field is level to encourage the cream to come to the top.
3  stay off the field .  politicians are many things but they are NOT cream and they are NOT full of good ideas.

abbott as a man who understands his limitations ( he is a solid family man and has a certain common sense) is doing a good job, much in the mould of john howard, bob hawke, bill hayden.

rudd (a man who did NOT understand his limitations) was a wrecker in the mould of other leftist "ideas" men...whitlam and that fool mark latham.

yes, the adults are back in charge , to a certain extent , but they still need to get some routine and discipline back into a childish voting public.

I can understand Cods getting this one wrong, I seen someone else post it and believed it was probably true but I wasn't sure either and had to look it up.

The article below is written by the ACTU Pres so I'm sure there's a bit of bias in it, however the facts cannot be disputed.

40 inquiries/reviews, didn't Bolt and you lot start calling Rudd mirrors for having inquiries?
