Dear Poirot,

Love your wit and sense of humour.
Don't ever change!

Dear SM,

Here's something to lighten up your day.
Enjoy:

Poirot,

Believing that actions speak louder than words, TA's sister has made her priorities pretty clear. Or perhaps in your vast experience you could proffer a viable alternative. I am aware that Labor continually says one thing and does another, so you have difficulty with this.

Lexi,

Again, the assumption of homophobia on TA's part is unsupported by reality.

Dear SM,

And you know this - how?
Or is this another fib?

Tony Abbott says gays -
"challenge the order of things."

And: -

He feels "threatened by them."

But he's definitely not homophobic.

He's possibly (like so many of us) simply misunderstood.

The following website confirms what many of us
have known for some time. Voters have been
unhappy with the current choices that we have
in our political leaders:

http://www.smh.com.au/national/wanted-a-visionary-to-plug-the-leadership-hole-20120413-1wz3p.html

Hence my offer of Malcolm Turnbull as an alternative to
Mr Abbott. Mr Turnbull is widely respected in
the business and wider community for his economic nous,
his experience and acumen. He is a clear alternative and
a far less polarising figure. Mr Abbott won the
leadership by a single vote. It's time the party voted
again.

Lexi,

I don't claim to know as you do (fibber), I just draw reasonable conclusions from their actions.

Actions speak louder than words, Abbott clearly has no problem with his sister or partner, nor they with him. None of the out of context quotes indicates that Abbott ever was homophobic, possible unfamiliar, but you have not indicated any statement of hatred.

You can't handle that TA is a 3 dimensional human being.

Juliar I judge on her behaviour which is riddled with lies and incompetence.
