Macho Tony Abbott and the women who ruled him : Comments

By Peter West, published 10/12/2015

Many discussions of masculinity, my own included, have pointed out that masculinity has its paradoxes.

It is no coincidence that the Mad Monk knuckle drags by the name of Abbott.

Abbott is not maintaining the dignified silence he promised when Australia was blessed with his Sept 2015 ejectalation.

Abbott has now become a fully paid up gibbering ranter of Trump International http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S9EGgGX74sM/VmiHKOoEqXI/AAAAAAAA1kU/MEoegosh1hI/s1600/rowe%2Babbott.jpg

Unless Abbott redeems himself as a good boy he will never receive the Ambassadorial sinecure (or High Commissioner-ship London) that Hokey pokey scored.

Tony sounded very intelligent compared to the total waffling going on now. The word 'innovation'being parrotted by every abc feminist and even now by some of the cabinet is nothing more than hot air. Whether it was Credlin or whoever I would say Turnbull needs a few lessons. He has about as much substance as Rudds great moral dilemma statement. Tony showed great courage in refusing to be lectured to by the likes of Gillard, Trigg, and other sisterhood members who benefit greatly by keeping themselves as habitual victims in order to cover lies and incompetence.

According to the Abbott-haters, he was too enthralled by the women around him. Yet before that, according to the Abbott-haters, he was a misogynistic woman-hater who looked at his watch too often. It didn't/doesn't matter what he did, the haters were going to hate.

Had he got rid of Credlin he would have been anti-woman. Had he put more woman into cabinet they, according to the usual suspects, would have been tokens or not senior enough or whatever.

Abbott's biggest problem was that he destroyed the fondly-held beliefs of the left. You can't stop the boats, we were told. Only a fool like Abbott thought you could. Then he did. There is no greater crime that proving those of a certain bent are wrong.

Abbott and Hockey saw the problems, the diabolical problems, that face this nation in the future and they tried to take measures to address that. But the nation isn't ready for that. We prefer leaders who make soothing noises about this being the best of times and the future being bright. Being confronted with the truth isn't currently acceptable. By the time it is accepted the situation will be beyond repair. We aren't Greece yet - but we will be.

As the economic situation deteriorates, all those dependant on the government for their lifestyles are starting to fight over the shrinking cake. It'll get worse. There will come a time when the nation will regret the demise of the fiscal conservatives.

Abbott ran a fraudulent political election campaign, he said one thing and tried to do the opposite, that is why he got the shift.

Toni sounded very intelligent, when was that. I still say he has a disability.
