It is bemusing that a man who hasn't even used a computer makes his decision to support Labour on the basis of the greatest un costed white elephant of all time (NBN). To be so deliberately naive was nothing short of deceitful. Windsor had every right to back Labour but to do it so deceitfully because of his grudge with the Nationals was a complete pooping on of his electorate. Why did we have to endure 17 days of deceit in order to make 2 men look like they were seriously trying to negotiate?

To Runner, that was an incredibly inaccurate, silly post. Tony Windsor studied computer programming at university, and chooses to not use a computer now. His staff are computer equipped, and all the necessary computer transactions that a pollie normally does take place. Runner, you've been suckered in by the TABLOIDS.

Tony Windsor has a lengthy history and a great reputation for honesty and integrity. He's a highly intelligent individual, who with honesty and dignity represents his constituency way, way, way above the call of duty. Runner, it takes NO brains to sit in your comfortable chair at your computer and attempt to degrade a decent, honest man.

To everyone else, yes Tony Abbott will continue to abuse, insult and degrade the Labor government. He'll do it because it worked wonders in the months up to the election, and during the election campaign. The Australian people liked hearing the abuse, and more of them voted for the Coalition than Labor. Tony Abbott knows what works; aggression, abuse, constant complaining and whinging. Will it work next time? We'll see.

The independents picked Labor because it gave them more chance of having the power for longer. Tony Windsor admitted as much. They are politicians after all, everyone seems to be forgetting this.

Mr Windsor sounds like a smart cookie, but politically so too. Anyway, it's fun watching him play statesman.

Bob Katter, well, as Julia once said about Mr Latham, some things just cant be measured.

Katter is the one that wants nuttin. He knew the way he was going to go right from the start, and spent 17 days trying to convince the other 2.

A quote from Windsor
'"I can't even operate a computer. I haven't got one on my desk. But I've got people in here who can," he said.

"I did computer programming at university and they were punch cards then, and I used to be fascinated with linear programming in terms of problem solving. But I'm ignorant now."

At best Windsor was naive. You know as well as I do that the NBN was uncosted. Would 'economic conservatives' really be so stupid as to spend this money uncosted? Why then was Windsor demanding costings from the opposition? He has been caught out. As I said in my last post he was/is perfectly entitled to back Labour. To say that the NBN was a breaker is either extremely naive or dishonest.

I have no idea how honest or dishonest this man is. Obviously his electorate thought a lot of him at the election. The hypocrisy shown here however is glaringly obvious. TZ52HX blindness hides it from him/her.

There could be no better outcome for the Australian public than if the whole damn parliament were unable to pass another law for the next three years.
