Poirot

a far more honest question would be to ask how the Coalition can fix the atrocious mess caused by Rudd/Greens. The same could be said for the econmomic vandalism of the Greens/ Labour. The mess gets created by grubby socialist ideology and instead of then apologising to the public they then demand that the Coalition come up with an overnight solution.

The Prime Minister, Kevin Rudd is certainly having a strong
reaction from members of the Coalition. Panic
seems to have set in well and truly. From Julie
Bishop's hysterics to the hysterics of the screaming
female pollie in the Senate just to name a few.

Not a good look.

I can only imagine what will happen when a blow-torch is
applied to Mr Abbott.

Kevin Rudd stands for whatever is popular at the time.

In 2007 KRudd pledged to turn back the boats,
then he opened the borders,
then pledged not to swing to the right on the issue,
now pledges not to swing to the left on the issue,
now claims that turning back the boats will create conflict with Indonesia (nearly as bad as the live exports debacle)

Would the real Kevin please stand up.

HAHAHAHA

In all of this ranting you lieberal supporters still have not come up with a single policy.

It would be laughable if it wasnt so scary and irresponsible.

So come on tell us. Just one.

One costed, written in blood, "core" policy promise that the rabbott has made. Just one.

It was on the ABC news just minutes ago that Indonesia had denied Kevin Rudd's statement that such conflict could arise.

Rudd got carried away with his own ego and fluffed it, it appears. That would not be a surprise to his critics in the Labor caucus. Maybe if he had consulted with his Foreign Minister Carr, first. But no.

onthebeach,

Same story, nothing's changed. Regardless on Ms Bishop's version of "conflict'.

Read the article and tell me how the Indonesians feel about the Coalitions plans to turn around the boats?

runner,

If I thought for moment that you were genuine in your concern about the loss of life on refugee boats, and not just employing that line to score partisan points, I'd cut you some slack.

However, the reality is that most who subscribe to your line or argument are merely employing a caring and concerned front to mask their xenophobic fear and "lack" of compassion regarding refugees who arrive by boat.

(Strange as it may seem, they don't appear to give a toss about people who arrive by different means - definitely not newsworthy or employable as a lever for emotive political gain)
