Diplomacy is more than a passing phrase : Comments

By Bruce Haigh, published 31/10/2013

It is a measure of the lack of sophistication and parochial outlook of Abbott and the government he leads that there is an apparent failure to understand the way the world works.

Mikk,

Juliar, Oakeshott and Windsor all started the 2010 parliament with an outrageous betrayal of their constituents, and as Anna Bligh found out, they never forget.

The difference is that TA is doing what he said he would, and the shrill hysteria from the left has been going on for so long that no one that counts ever listens to it.

he started the negative gutter politics
mikk,
some was justified after the lefties commenced their campaign of gutter vidictiveness. Abbott is now running the country & the lefties are scheming like crazy to scramble up sufficient brains to de-stabilise the country again. They are the real gutter dwellers.

Some of the scathing comments about Tony Abbott on the Monday Night Forum at the Opera House reveal that many bright and informed people see Tony as a replacement for George W Bush who, for 8 years, was seen as the V.I. (Village Idiot) of world politics.

Tony, Rhodes Scholar, seems to be setting a new low in the intelligence of Australia's Prime Ministers. His 'suppository' gaffe was not an isolated event.

Many are wondering just how Tony became a Rhodes Scholar and I'm one of them. It certainly wasn't because of his intellect!

David G you say you know TA does not have the intellect to be a Rhodes Scholar? Really? You know that or it's just he does things differently from you.
The new Left tactic is to not argue their case but to burst into laughter and then say the other side is mad. See last night's Q & A
You are a pathetic joke of a person. Scratch any lefty and you reveal the inner nazi who believes everyone HAS to agree with him.

I always am amused by these left whingers telling us how stupid they think Abbott is. The implication is that his stellar academic results were forged and the professors at Oxford were all bribed.

The irony that the left whingers forget is that this supposed simpleton effortlessly tore down two Labor PMs leaving them humiliated, and ensured that Labor's legacy in the minds of the majority of Australians is one of incompetence and deceit. The implication is that Labor's MPs are drooling cretins.

I am happy for these left whingers to continue deluding themselves, as it separates them from the rest of the voters, and leaves them dazed as they are repeatedly flogged.
