So rechtub, shadow minister, and Richie ten, you look to Tony HIGH FIBER Abbot to get things done better.
Now my extremist right wing Christian Friend first Richie.
Your God said judge not less you be judged he threw the moneylenders out of the holly place.
He said give Cesar his dues.
LIE? are you saying my words are lies? who are you to say who is left?
Shadow unlike rechtub you have a true understanding of issues, have run a hard campaign for your side.
Not much balance but your task was to run hard and fast high fiber Tony was not much help but next election?
Hockey will do better.
Rechtub, mate what happened to my mob choking? and yours?
We are doing better because mineral exports carried both Howard and us, no brilliant government just good luck.
But we are not on the verge of mass unemployment.
We are doing better than most ,most international money people think Rudd did well.
Maybe Tony high fiber in his quite moments does too.
Need to ask him first was it a written script or on the run comment.

Howard...raped the Health system, raped the Education system, we lost free university, we won the GST...a 10% tax that increased the price of everything to more like 20%. And we found ourselves in 2 wars that have nothing to do us, WMD's, democracy or our security.

Under Howard...the figures used to calculate inflation NO LONGER contain fuel cost increases, mortgage interest rates and many other indicators for the "cost of living".

How Howard got us out of debt...he dumped our gold reserve onto the global market, lowering the value of gold, but virtually nullifying our debt overnight. That made a lot of gold companies VERY unhappy.

We lost our largest Australian company, BHP.

We won nothing under Howard, and lost a lot.

Under Rudd...billions wasted on schools by not understanding how to make companies accountable, or understanding good business practices. Billions wasted in insulation because any cat and his dog with a business name implying the fitting of insulation, got a contract, and again, were not accountable.

The GFC...regardless of which government was in power, the monies would have been mismanaged the same, as we had to follow suit with America...bail-out the big boys that lost the money, and let the little guys toil and suffer. The entire concept of the bail-outs was rubbish, and did little more than look after some big boys that will be employing consultants that were ex-government officials, in the future. The bail-outs were mostly a whitewash so that many iconic institutions were not held accountable, though a few heads did roll, they were only token to the real depth of the problems.

Traditionally, we could rely on Labor to have some good social policies, but not money management skills, and we could rely on the Liberals to have money management skills, and cut the excess fat off of what Labor did. But currently, both show competence only at lying, back-flipping, usurping their leaders, and saying anything that might be remotely popular to gain office, but no plans of any substance by either.

Bob Brown...frothing at the mouth with glee, holding the balance of power.

Labor has repeatedly raped small business.

Considering that this is where most new jobs are created, implementing the fair work legislation that imposes similar IR legislation on small business as large businesses is sure to result in the shedding or casualisation of employment.

Rather than claiming to be the PM of Jobs, she should claim the title of PM of part time jobs.

Shadow Minister now that the election is over, it is you know, you lost Australia won.
We should look for this country sake at rebuilding your party.
First lets get together one conservative party one team.
Oh yes you will need a dumping ground preferences and all that.
Say a few Liberal Liberals stay and run the dumping ground.
Lets start the clean up get a truck we will need it Bronwyn and Julie have to go a 44 of botox could not help and no way they can remain silent.
Pyne the pain? get him a Job inside the party but far away from Parliament.
Abbott maybe a short spell then sports minister in your next government, maybe in 3 years.
Iron bar and that poor lost bloke in the Nats Barnaby Joice?
But them a pub anything just get rid of them.
You get the drift it will mean you can no longer write party policy, but that was not a job after all any one can complain.
Joe Hockey, his first speech should go something like this.
We are sorry
for the tactics we have employed
after all we knew it worked in the past and mistakenly thought it would forever.
While we will watch every move of the government we pledge not to stop bills in the senate just because we can.
First step to Joe getting your mob over the line.

Fair enough Graham but would you be supporting a Labor/Green oriented poster with a series of constant spruiking threads when they are pulled up on it? Maybe you would - I don't know.

Spruik away by all means, we can all do it, but we should also expect retaliatory spruiking. :)

Belly,

The fact that Abbott put the wind up Labor, drag the Labor brand through the mud, got rid of Rudd, and got JG to back-flip on just about every Labor policy is enough to warm the cockles of my heart. Your outrage is the cherry on top.

What would you suggest they do with Garrett, with JG, the face of Labor incompetence?

Abbott is here to stay, and if JG wins, she can expect more of the same for the next 3 years.
