@ Belly:

Not upset at all - just disappointed that you prefer to remain ignorant and regurgitate the dishonest spin served up daily by the 'major' parties. I had thought better of you than that.

I'm happy to discuss Greens policies with you once you've actually read them. I can't see how it's possible to discuss them intelligently without having done so.

@ Aquarius:

Greens social welfare policy is every bit as supportive of the elderly as that of the ALP. I guess you must be another who likes to discuss Greens policy without knowing what it is.

I too am not shouting, sweating, or at all angry as I write mate.
Take no joy in hurting your feelings.

See I am not blind to your policy's, heard most from Bob Browns mouth.
They are not secrete.
I disliked Bush as much as anyone, but Browns welcome in the house was the act of a ratbg.
That Sydney council , no can not go there again what a crock of filth that was.
Brown mid NSW election saying he wanted no preference deal, that I thank him for, it underlined my party's enemy.

Ah Yabby,

Speaking of the grape vine, here you are again you good little lib trying to drum up votes. Dont you think its time you broke the news to your little buddy and came out from the closet.

More evidence of how the alliance with the greens is hurting labor.

As you know we are not ever going to be mates.
But my honestly held view, that your post is quite true, has lost me Friends.
I cannot ever hide my true thoughts and fears, opinions and ideas.
Your party, in my view not currently ready for it, is going to govern soon.
My party has a very few cowards, and a few more fools, who afraid to drive the left to the greens are smacking our right in to considering it.
I will stay,fight for my party and be part of its return as the true party of change .
And history will judge us all, in ten years even your side will see the Rudd/Gillard years as ones of great change and achievement.
