I find it fascinating when folk like sonofgloin unrelentingly remind us of Gillard's so called lie. One lie.
Yet he and his ilk support Tony Abbott who, day after day, knowingly and willfully lies to the Australian people.
How in the world do you manage to square that circle?
You cannot forgive Gillard one lie, yet you can forgive Abbott daily lies. How do you do that?

Hey ! Whats wrong with you people ?
Are you not aware that Tony Abbott DID win the last election ?

It is just that three "independants" sided with the loser.

Simple isn't it ?

Ant,

Australia won't forgive Gillard her one little lie, and you don't understand? Really? Everyone else seems to understand. Anna Blight lied and labor was decimated at the polls, the same lies in wait for Juliar.

If a car salesman overly extols the virtues of a car, that is considered normal in business. However, if he forgets to mention that it is stolen it is another matter. This is essentially the difference.

Emmerson was clowning around in Whyalla trying to show that it wasn't wiped off the map. Does he seriously think that is going to make a difference? The polls are clear. Labor is in for a thrashing.

Sorry Shad, That dog just won't hunt.
Abbott doesn't just "gloss over". He flat out, knowingly lies.
He's done it all his career.
And he's doing it every day, with his scaremongering.
He's even acknowledged it himself, when he said that if it isn't in writing it should not be taken as the truth.
However, I accept that he will win the next election in a landslide.
Though I wonder how long your ecstasy will last, once the reality of an Abbott/Pell Government really bites.

No politician has ever broken a promise before Gillard came on the scene -not even a former Health Minister with his pre-election "rolled gold Medicare safety net" that was quickly abandoned after re-election. Who was it? Well he quacks like a duck and walks like an ape.

Even O'Farrell has reached his 100 broken promises mark in his first 6 months. http://www.scribd.com/doc/66491340/100-Broken-Promises and Campbell Newman already has number of lies under his belt.

Get a grip. People were once out to dump Gillard on the basis of her fashion sense, her haircut and the state of her earlobes.

Wobbles mate, I want the ALP to win, at least as much as you.
I will be a re builder, after our loss.
Gillard did not lie, yes Abbott does.
But do not waste time defending Julie, she is incapable of ever defending her self.
She could and should have said these words.
I am sorry, it was never my intention to deceive!
I though such an election out come was not possible, that it would be the ALP on its own in charge.
At the beginning of talks to form government not just greens but three independents insisted on this action.
We had this choice, take government, or give it to Mr Abbott.
Mr Abbott had his lists ready, tried every thing he could to form government, had he, not us done so, would the independents still be insulted?
Would he be seen as in the pocket of the greens?
Wobbles look at the lies, currency of conservatives , see the public is buying every one.
See the mix of failure to understand and willingness to lie you confront here.
IF you want to help the ALP look to the removal of Gillard as our only chance to do so, and know only to save the face of fools who removed Rudd we have not done so months ago.
