The irrational slide to Rudd : Comments

By Jonathan J. Ariel, published 12/9/2007

The gravitation towards Rudd demonstrates an irrationality steeped in ignorance that flies in the face of logic.

TRUE POLITICAL COLORS.

OOoooo---k...its time for me to 'reveal' my true political colors..
Time for me to do my best go get you all to vote the way "I" want....
Time to campaign for the 'best' political party.

1/ It's not 'gun's which kill people..its 'people' who pull the triggers.
2/ It' not 'Unions' which blackmail the economy, its 'roque elements'

3/ Its not 'The Right' which exploits all available resources for better bottom lines and 'shareholder value'..its greeedy people.

4/ Its not "organized labor" which destroys social harmony, wrecks company viability and gives nervous breakdowns to those trying to make a go of it, it's people with sub agenda's.. "Class struggle" ideas and those who will do anything to gain power, including sidle up to others who are blatantly out to take our freedom away.

5/ Its not "powerful CEO's" in high positions who rip off the public, its 'people with black motives'...who will manipulate and restructure companies...shift debt to make a bottom line 'look' better and retain their huge bonus's.

IN SHORT We are a mess from top to bottom. Greedy, selfish, short sighted and hard hearted. When we ridicule and verbally spit on 'the right'..or..'the left' are we are doing it because of noble reasons, or... ?

SOLUTION... who to VOTE for......

Well.. no matter who we vote for we will get a bleeding 'politician'... and ALL political parties from what I can see are organized along lines of advancing personal interest. Some interests are financial, material and others are 'values' based.

I guess it all boils down to conscience and awareness. The only person I suggest we vote for is not even standing for election, except the election as 'king' of our hearts. Yes.. its the Messiah..Jesus, KING of kings and LORD of Lords.

Liberals, Labor... what's the difference these days? With big business dominating both sides of the duopoly, Australians are left to choose between the lesser of two evils. As much as the Liberals deserve to be turfed from office, Labor's litany of broken promises at the state level simply demonstrates their own moral and intellectual bankruptcy. Is anybody, for example, sad to see the tail end of Peter Beattie? Didn't think so.

And then, of course, we have the issue of Kevin Rudd. Smarmy Mr. Rudd is the consummate politician of the 21st century - an unscrupulously opportunistic chameleon. All sizzle but no sausage. Beyond being a Sinophile, what does Mr. Rudd actually stand for? At least voters knew what to expect from Beazley and even Latham.

Boazy: "Yes.. its the Messiah..Jesus, KING of kings and LORD of Lords."

Wow. I hadn't heard such a slogan even from Kevin Rudd's most fervent supporters. Mind you, it has possibilities -
imagine if the strip club affair had been reported in such terms:

'He's not the Messiah, he's just a naughty boy!'

Even I'd think about voting Labor if Rudd was marketed in such a manner.

Can the OLO editorial team *please* scour your contact networks, the internet, heck, even your own desk drawers, and come up with an article - something, anything, to show us that there are Coalition supporters out there with greater intellect than Mr Ariel and Ms Felicity McMahon?

*sound of pin dropping*

As his Campaign Manager, I have a question. If I vote 1 for the Messiah, what Party would he want to give his second preference votes to?
