onthebeach,
How can you be a Christian on one hand and a supporter of bible listed abominations (homosexuality etc.) It's a bit like the Pope supporting the pill.
Sorry for mine he's out

Who is Kevin Rudd and what does he stand for? Plainly the public front is different to what is behind.

James Button, who was the Europe correspondent for The Age and the Sydney Morning Herald, had this to say,

"The truth is, Rudd was impossible to work with. He regularly treated his staff, public servants and backbenchers with rudeness and contempt. He could be vindictive, intervening to deny people appointments or preselections, sometimes based on grudges going back years.

He made crushing demands on his staff, and when they laboured through the night to meet those demands, they received no thanks, and often the work was not used. People who dared to stand up to him were put in "the freezer" and not consulted or spoken to for months.

His staff's prodigious loyalty was mostly not repaid. He put people down behind their backs. He seemed to feel that everyone was always letting him down. In meetings, as I saw, he could emanate a kind of icy rage that was as mysterious as it was disturbing.

He governed by, and seemed almost to thrive on, crisis. Important papers went unsigned; staff and public servants would be pulled onto flights, in at least one case halfway around the world, on the off-chance that he needed to consult them.

Vital decisions were held up while he struggled to make up his mind, frequently demanding more pieces of information that merely delayed the final result. The fate of the government seemed to hinge on the psychology of one man.

As I watched this unfold in Canberra, I tried hard to put aside my poor experience of working for Rudd. I had been a journalist for more than 20 years and knew that just because three people complain about something or someone does not make it true. When 30 or more witnesses complain, you can start to believe it."

Well mate that tells it all

What about 'supposed to be a christian' Abbott. He wasted months in Parliament attacking Slipper when Ashby as a competent adult could well look after himself. Contrast this to Abbott not raising a murmur when thousands of young children were being sexually assaulted over decades. He had to have the implied consent of Pell before he gave support to the commission of enquiry. Do we want a leader who needs to have permission from the leader of another State before making decisions affecting the Australian people.

Abbott cannot manage his own Parliamentary expense account let alone the Nation's accounts.

Ashfrank,

What about the $10billion error by Labor's big three, PM Rudd, Mr Rudd, flanked by Treasurer Chris Bowen and Finance Minister Penny Wong?

Rudd's Wong again.. When will the Penny drop? LOL,
