Jesus and Muhammad would start preaching at each other and Buddha would tell us we have to work it out for ourselves - don't think he was into power as much as the aforementioned.

And we do (have to work it out ourselves). We voted them in. And we will be under Abbott's thumb if Labor cannot sort itself out - although I acknowledge the dearth of talent in Labor, well both sides for that matter. The only Liberal 'talent' sullied himself with the Gordon Grech campaign to smear Rudd.

Can't see this ride reaching clement skies any time soon.

I remain highly sceptical of both major parties.

I do remain hopeful that some sincere and capable pollie will emerge, I don't give a toss what sex they are as long as they can do the job.

PS

Would be really impressed by Gillard if she set up refugee processing on shore and told the paranoia merchants where to shove their spin.

Yeah, I know I am dreamin'.

My main complaint is that Labor's performance has been so diabolical as to allow the possibility of someone like Tony Abbott a "perhaps" easy ride into the top job. How did that happen?...will he achieve it through some kind of default?

Surely our system was (theoretically) designed to deliver us nothing but the very best in our leadership appointments...and look what we end up with - on both sides. Perhaps we should go back to the drawing board.

Well, I was stunned last night as I sullied my brainbox with another episode of Q&A.

There was Dr. Frankenstein, Belly's near best mate Paul Howes, the Creator of Gillard (with his faithful Egor, Bill Shortarse, of course)sitting next door to Clive Palmer, LNP magnate, National Supremo, bigshot/mouth, both of them speaking more sense than Combet or that rather snooty Sophie M.

What a turn up!

Combet was clearly choking back Cabinet Vomit as he 'supported' the Gillard line, knowing full well that Doug Cameron was nodding his head in violent disagreement.

Who would ever have thought that an intelligent comment could have come from Howes, after Creating Gillard as 'the only answer' OR Clive Palmer?

But BOTH of them TOGETHER with the only intelligent offering to date was simply staggering.

Clive for PM?

TBC,

We must have been watching two different shows.
I got a totally different impression.
That "Mirabella" creature kept on spouting
the usual Opposition's Party "Mantra,"
and kept being corrected by actual facts.
I felt sorry for the woman.
Small things like - since the election the
Government has steered 130 bills through
Parliament including ones dealing with health
and disability. Things like the real costs
involved with the carbon tax (approx. 1 cent),
and which has the support of two of Australia's
biggest banks, the National and Westpac. And so
on. Of course in order to understand what
was being said - you would have to really listen
and think. And for some that's simply not possible.
Buying the Party line is so much easier.

Oh Lexi, not you too?

Do you deny then that Palmer and Howes offered an intelligent response to the self-inflicted refugee 'crisis'?

Or that Combet was barely able to speak his lines without choking on the words?

Of course Sophie was talking crap, that's Sophie's choice, and it's what she does best, in fact, it's all she ever does.

And yes, it was good of the economist to throw Superman a lifeline by casting doubt on such shamefully fabricated figures from dear Sophie.

But I didn't mention Sophie at all, perhaps because she is so easily ignored, having so very little to say ever that is worth listening to, unless you are the sort of person who is overawed by patent nonsense and feel the need to find other sources to back up what might be blindingly obvious to others?

Do I understand then Lexi, that you are blushing with pride when it comes to Gillard's Final Solution, the transportation of human souls to some Godforsaken dump of a fascist state?

Or, while glued to Sophie's pearls, did you miss what the otherwise odious pair of Palmer and Howes were saying?

Gillard has Lowered Feminine Aspirations

That's not entirely fair. She lowered everyone's aspirations.
