Kevin hasnt let go
Oct 21st, 2017 at 3:40pm
 
http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/books/kevin-rudd-says-he-was-warn...

yep a brand new book from Kevin  venting his pain after 7 long years...

KEVIN Rudd is taking aim in his new memoir and everyone from Julia Gillard to Wayne Swan and John Howard are square in his sights.

In an excerpt of his new book Not for the Faint-hearted: A personal reflection on life, politics and purpose, obtained by The Weekend Australian, Mr Rudd says Ms Gillard has promised to give him two terms as leader before he planned to “ensure a smooth transition”, which would see her appointed as Australia’s first female prime minister

She said I should be given two terms as opposition leader,” Mr Rudd writes. “If I had failed to win by then, then she would reserve her rights. She then added a caveat that if I went backwards in the 2007 election, when measured against (Mark) Latham’s result in 2004, she would also have to give some thought as to her next move. Both propositions sounded reasonable to me. We shook hands on it.

“This agreement was one of the reasons I was taken by surprise during the events of June 2010, when Julia acted to ensure that not only would I not be given two terms as Labor leader, I would only be given one, and that would be as a Labor prime minister who had actually prevailed against the then invincible (John) Howard. Such is the brutal nature of Australian politics played at its hardest.”




poor dear.....oh well I am sure he will sell far more books thanks to Julia... Grin Grin Grin

author - PZ547 on Rudd


I don't 'hate' him. Hate is way too personal a term. I don't personally know him

However, I do detest him

It's my personal opinion that Rudd is mentally unstable

The way he speaks, for one: that 'Schoolkid reading a book to the class' voice he uses. It's not normal. It's not manly. It's affected. He sounds like a precocious ten-year old who's in love with himself

Then there are the Transvestite-type asides which he injects into his Schoolkid-Reading-a-Book style monologues about himself -- when he inserts what he appears to believe is Bruce Willis type 'menace' .... as in his lowered voice as he hissed, 'It's not going to happen' --- accompanied by a glare like a bitter old auntie who's cake got second-prize at the fete

* All the posturing
* the monologues about himself -- always about him
* the Bates Motel type voices and facial tics
* the self-pity -- invariably when he's caused the problem himself
* the blaming of others - when he's to blame
* the attempts to sound like fifty different people simultaneously
* the venom
* the anger
* the weirdness
* the petulance
* the temper tantrums, like a spoiled brat
* his utter self-absorption to the exclusion of everyone, everything else
* his self-promotion - which isn't matched by reality
* his vengefulness
* his spitefulness
* his unfettered, massive, beyond belief size ego
* his conceit
* his impotence
* his self-serving disloyalty



Just the sight -- let alone the sound -- of Rudd blathering on endlessly about himself ... is enough to cause me to switch off the tv

He seems to believe he is a combination of Churchill, Menzies, JFK, Caesar, Einstein, John Wayne and an entire battalion of Rhodes Scholars, plus

He seems to believe it his destiny to be the ultimate, entire-world's Grand Statesman

To me, Rudd is an impotent, gender-confused little twat who spent (and spends) WAY too much time with himself, envisioning himself as an acknowledged mental and political Giant. In other words, it's my belief he's delusional -- is extremely fantasy-prone -- is literally IN LOVE WITH HIMSELF. To the point I suspect he probably kisses his own reflection in mirrors and hogs the bathroom in order to do so constantly

I think he's mad as a hatter and I'm glad he's been shot down, hopefully for good and in time for an army of psychiatrists to put him in a padded cell for the duration

So I don't know why others hate him

but above are my opinions of him

I think he's nuts -- flat out nuts

I have no desire to read Kev's book. He was better than Abbott but not many others.

Julia was very good though, she deserved to get a fair go.

no thanks-I followed the kev/julia very closely- she was calculating and back stabbing- if you saw The Killing Season ( ABC website ) That was fascinating and eye opening

hes afraid kevvie  would tell a few lies about his beloved  julia.... I have never seen anyone make as many excuses for Julia as dna...he loves her..

yes the killing season  said so much  I doubt dna watched it though...it would be too raw...

I just might get the book when its down to the $2 mode..the though of making kevvie any richer kind of goes against the grain a bit for me...

another book to look forward too will be Bills...lololol
