I see nothing wrong with what Cory said. He is being persecuted for asking a Question.

If homosexuals do get their way & same sex marriage is legalized, will the next cat out of the bag be some group campaigning for bestiality to be OK'd? I suspect it will be the same crowd calling on it to be legalized & it would be considered Politically Incorrect to speak against it.

Once you realise that Cory wasn’t sacked for what he said but for publicly showing a lack of “discipline” it makes me wonder what else is said behind closed party room doors by such zealots.
Howard was said to have racist tendencies when he was in Fraser's cabinet and referred to aborigines as "boongs" in private conversations and I'm sure that similar things are said in the ALP caucus.

Just because Singer said something related to bestiality doesn’t make it a fact.

Trying to connect gay marriage with bestiality is patently absurd – like saying that almost all heroin addicts start out on mother’s milk.

It seems to me that extremists are addicted to outrage - they crave the feeling it gives them and love to create more.

I couldn't agree more. It gives idiot a sense of power & the PC crowd latch on like bulldogs. Most of them don't even really know or care what the issue is, just as long as it's an issue & they can be heard.

The problem then is, more's the pity, is that, we, like sheep, follow.

Opps! last line. Delete "we" insert "some people"

A reality can not be avoided here.
SOME are seemingly defending the idiots actions.
Then, in my view, it can not be wront to make ANY CLAIM.
Runner as is his usual, looks for a reason to differ with any criticism of a conservative.
And any reason to slag off a left of center.
No one should forget, this hung Parliament has delivered both an unhappy electorate.
And some truly blind, folk who see only one side getting it wrong.
Animal sex was not what the vote was about.
Has nothing to do with it, Abbott knew it went too far, for self interest or fear Turnbull may move he did the right thing.
Has ANYONE gone to the blokes home page? read his past slip ups? seen the concerns about him from some in his own party.

'Runner as is his usual, looks for a reason to differ with any criticism of a conservative.'

I seem to remember that I was one of Turnbull's loudest critics on OLO when he was favouring the Rudd's push for the deceitful carbon tax. My allegiance to conservatives (as you put it) is a lot weaker than your chain to the Labour party. Cory just happens to state the obvious.
