runner,

Why are you so obsessed with the fetus
from birth to nine months only?
Human life is worthy of being nurtured
during all its phases.

No neo-natal care, no day care, no school lunches,
no welfare. If you're pre-born you're fine.
If you're pre-school, you're screwed.

How about broadening out your outlook?

Live babies should not turn out to be dead soldiers
because some politician decides who the enemy is.

Just take two seconds to think before you post.

Criticism is very valuable if it promotes robust debate
But before you criticise, think what gain is going to
come out of that criticism and sometimes maybe you keep
it in the think bubble istead of a post bubble.

Lexi

just because your dogmas has calloused your heart so hard that you don't recognise human life being killed does not mean others don't.

But Pelican, there in lies the problem, the revenue doesn't extend, in fact, we are slashing spending in many areas, while a the same time borrowing to fund things like, the illegals and aid to Indonesia.

Work that out!

One can't imagine just where we will be post coal mining.

Poirot

looks like you owe Mal an apology. I won't be holding my breath.

Yeah, runner,

Mal's a top bloke.

Just look what Rares J says about him here:

Just in case you can't be bothered, here's an excerpt from the Judge's conclusion (199):

"....Mr Ashby acted in combination with Ms Doane and Mr Brough when commencing the proceedings in order to advance the interests of the LNP and Mr Brough. Mr Ashby and Ms Doane set out to use the proceedings as part of their means to enhance or promote their prospects of advancement or preferment by the LNP, including by using Mr Brough to assist them in doing so. And the evidence also established that the proceedings were an abuse of the process of the Court for the reasons I have given..."

Great stuff, eh, runner.

P,

So Bob Hawke, after a string of dalliances dumps his wife for his secretary. And Labor has crude jokes about Abbott's chief of staff to the senior labor caucus. Yup, Labor are the worst hypocrites.

Labor are in the zero policy zone, where all their populist policies have been a disaster.
