Dear David F,

I think you rock!

Dear CJ,

I like Joe as well!

He reminds me too much of the Aussie Home loans Guy. I really want 'people skills' to be next leader, as once a party hits rock bottom, the only way is up. He's the equivalent of Mark Latham for ALP.

I never thought I'd say this, but since the rodent has left, and the Rud-bot has replaced him, I actually pine for that mean and tricky rodent again. I'd even go for the whining red headed socialist over that chameleon bureaucrat with the sincerity of a Mike Munroe smile.

Yuk- what is it with people FAWNING over these sleezebags simply because they make a few (vague) statements solely because they KNOW people will fall for it?

Hockey, like Turnbull, are dodgy as they come- yet they have hordes of idiotic followers lapping up statements that either man clearly doesn't give a toss about himself. It seems especially strong amongst "small l liberal" people- which in my opinion speaks volumes about their intelligence- quite similar to "compassionate conservatives".

And I'm saying this as someone who DESPISES religious politicians- and as such places every strongly religious party at the bottom of my ballot paper- below the Fishers and Shooters- Liberal AND Labor amongst them.

If Hockey frightens you what do you think of Bob Brown nominating recycled ex-Democrats Senator Andrew Bartlett for the Lower House seat of Brisbane?

Bartlett as some may recall, disgraced himself by stealing a bunch of bottles of wine, being boozed in the Senate and abusing and manhandling a woman Senator. A 'f'ing bitch' was one of the names he called her it was alleged.

If Andrew Bartlett was a footballer you'd have him hanged by his testicles, fined and banned for life, right C J?

Others may also remember the Private Member's Bill introduced in 2005 by Bartlett when he was a Senator, that on the surface was aimed at 'animal welfare', but had it passed, it would have banned fishing.

You are right of course, Joe Hockey is way, way better than some who seek election.

At the time Bartlett got a slap on the wrist.

Christ will still be on the throne long after fools like Hockey talk their incoherent nonsense. The Liberal party has never been God's party as such. Malcolm Turnbull would be similar to Hockey in that he has no idea of sin, righteousness or judgement to come. Mr Hockey might think he can explain the unexplainable adult fairytale of evolution but sounds just idiotic as others who try and explain away the Creator. Mr Hockey obviously displays much blind faith like the many evolutionist do. The sad reality of politics is that men and women will say or do anything to get elected. Their display of arrogance towards their Creator is really nothing short of pathetic. No doubt many of these Liberals will be hypocritical enough to be sprouting the Lord's prayer. At least Bob Brown is open about his defiance.
