Son - the all care about their people................... that's a given..... let's try by example.... I care about the suffering of the innocents or relatively innocents in Gaza, as much as I care for the suffering of Israeli families who have lost terribly and continue to lose ... that doesn't mean that I will whole-heartedly vote to support Gazans unilaterally and unconditionally ...

Caring is an emotion - the mind - just like with the trannies - makes the final arbitration on what will 'be'.... I can sympathise with those Abos doing it tough - doesn't mean I will give them the world.

You need to separate people from policies and policy thrusts - I said here years ago that I judge politicians not by their public face - but by their actions on the ground.... Smiling Assassins of all you genuinely hold dear are still assassins.

Now then - what about that labor policy platform????  Anyone?  And what about this crud of having what are becoming hereditary seats in our parliaments for those already well-heeled enough from their 'family service' - quo plura mutant, magis in eodem manent.

I'll say it again - political position should be hard work and low paid - so as to attract ONLY those with a genuine interest in the overall well-being of the country - those prepared to actually sacrifice something for the greater good... not just those looking for a sweet ride ...
