Could Clive be any worse I am sure politic's would become more lets call it interesting, Is this the type of push the major's need to get back on the side of Australian's not Just Big business
Whats Your say

Sure, why not, Clive is so "honest". He'd never lie to anyone, deceive anyone or try to take advantage of anyone. As we all know, if Clive makes promises before the election then he'll keep those promises. We can trust dear Clive. Just like that wonderful "almost" Catholic priest Tony Abbott. Tony's a devout Christian, therefore we can trust him too.

Just love Clive. I voted for him last election.

Clive is so "honest".
Nhoj,
The most integrity devoid poster on OLO saying the above is the height of either extreme hypocrisy or more likely than not extreme stupidity. The morons will welcome you with open arms.
I'd say Clive has a hundred times more honesty & competence than you could ever dream of having.

Poor Individual, he didn't even comprehend what I actually wrote. Hilarious. Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Nhoj,
I give you something to laugh about. How about answering questions instead of putting your limited capacity of stating sense & so openly displaying your racism & trying to incite racism.
Is ha ha ha your acronym for I'm a moron, I'm a moron, I'm a moron ?

The anti blsck racist Individual wrote, "I'm a moron, I'm a moron, I'm a moron". Wow, Individual has finally admitted he's a moron ... there's hope for him yet. We can consider this admission to be the first step in his recovery. It'll be a slow recovery, and there's still 11 more steps to go in the 12 step plan, but with good psychiatric assistance I'm sure Individual will achieve recovery within the next 20 years or so. Don't give up Individual, I'm rootin' for ya.

‘morning Aussieboy,

I’ve no idea what Clive or any of the new Senators will do in July. Clive is Abbotts best weapon at the moment because he is increasingly looking like a loose cannon. As for the rest of the new Senators, I can’t for the life of me imagine them voting to give up their six year appointments, very handsome salaries, perks, expenses, privileges, prestige, gold passes and all that lovely pension?

I think anything else might be wishful thinking but hey, you never know, they might just turn out to be something other than politicians?

Clive would be the same as any other politician and say whatever the voters want to hear in order to get elected.....and then slease out of all his 'promises' after getting in.
And then....blame the previous government for making him break his promises!

I am sick and tired of the lot of them, but especially The Abbott and his band of holy men.

To bring us 'back into budget' they feel the need to find the money from the young, elderly, unemployed, the sick, and families, but yet still able to find an obscene amount of money to fund school chaplains, pay new mums to stay at home, and for 'marriage counselling'?

It sounds like a priest is running the country alright...

Thinking about it again, maybe even Clive could do a better job?

Susan online the difference being that Clive does not need big corporate money. Both the major parties ,greens etc have been bought out by big business and are afraid of the banking ,military industrial complex. Aussies are gutless and ignorant and have never fought for real democracy.

The more the pop media demonise Clive, the more I like him.

Dear Mr. Palmer,

I hear that you want to be Australia's next prime-minister.

I only have one question for you:

If elected, will you allow me to ride a bicycle without wearing a pot over my head?

If so, then my vote is yours.
Otherwise, forget it.

Sincerely, Awaiting your answer.

Dearest Yuyutsu,

I would certainly allow you to ride your bike without a pot on your head......as long as you don't ask the public purse to pay for your medical bills following a head injury if you crush your potless head on the roadway?

love,
Clive.

Dearest Suse? Or should I now call you Clive?

Congratulations. I wasn't aware that sex-change is such a quick procedure nowadays. I do hope that it is not paid by the public purse.

I certainly won't accept any public funds for my health/medical bills, whether it be for head injuries or for anything else. Doing so would amount to being an accomplice to theft and/or receiving stolen goods.

Dearest Yuyu? Or should I now call you Tax'Em Tony?

Congratulations, I wasn't aware that religion change was such a quick procedure nowadays. I do hope your conversion was not paid for by the public purse.

Like you, I certainly wouldn't accept any public funds for my health/medical bills, whether it be for head injuries or anything else. Like you, I'd reject any treatment offered whose research and development was funded by government grants (public funds). That means I'd reject 90% of all medical treatments, just like you Yuyu. Not doing so would amount to being an accomplice to theft and/or receiving stolen goods.

Yuyu, I'm so glad to see that we are both ideologically and politically correct.

Deqr Nhoj,

<<Yuyu, I'm so glad to see that we are both ideologically and politically correct>>

Refusing to be a thief is politically correct? Huh?

Stealing is incorrect. It has been wrong since time immemorial, long before the ugly birth of politics.
Refusing to be a thief is the correct way to go - the straight and narrow!

Deqr Yuyu,

<<Yuyu, I'm so glad to see that we are both ideologically and politically correct>>

Refusing to be a thief is politically correct? Huh? I agree so much with you Yuyu, and like you I agree it's really good to call a spade a hammer, which enables Yuyu to falsely adopt a politically correct high moral ground. Now Yuyu, do you comprehend the words of the previous sentence? Probably not. Ha ha ha.

Now Yuyu, you need to learn that misrepresenting what is and isn't stealing, is incorrect and it has been wrong since time immemorial, long before the ugly birth of politics. Refusing to misrepresent is the correct way to go - the straight and narrow.

Yuyutsu, you know very well that my comment about the public purse referred to Government subsidized health care, ie Medicare.
Unless of course, you imagine your private health cover will cover all your expenses?
It won't.

You were writing your letter to all the contributors to this forum, of which a few, luckily, are female.
Unless you imagine Clive is reading this forum, then I have every right to answer the letter.....yes?

I have worked on head injury wards, and believe me, you don't want to go there....

Dear Suse,

I was actually hoping that Clive, hearing that there's a discussion about him here, will come and read. Maybe he did!

I never expect my so-called "private" fund to pay my expenses either: I have one (on the minimum plan) because it's practically compulsory, in effect it's only another form of tax - otherwise one is subject to the Medicare-surcharge. That's how I see it and I have no expectations from it.

The best insurance is self-insurance. From a financial point of view, it is, on average, the cheapest because no private fund would insure you just for your lovely eyes and winning smile - they do it for profit, you know.

One should ideally pay their own medical expenses if they require such services. I'm not talking about those unfortunates who cannot afford it: they should still be able to get it through Medicare, but most of us can afford their medical treatments and should save for it, if they want this kind of services in the first place.

Hospitals are indeed a dreadful place and I certainly don't want to find myself in a head-injury ward: if I injure my head, then I rather find myself straight up in heaven and I do ask that no doctor dares touch me and interfere with my natural process of heading there.

Finally, I do appreciate the presence of females here and I can only hope that there will be more of you!

Of course you are more than welcome to answer my letters, but if you sign your answer, please do so with your own name: that's because I really do appreciate your love and to be frank, I feel no attraction whatsoever to Mr. Palmer.

Good response Yuyutsu : )
I do hope Clive is reading your letter.

Luckily, we live in a fairly well off country like Australia, where the Government is able to subsidise our healthcare needs.
If we had to pay our own bills for the real cost of healthcare in Australia, we would all have to be as rich as Clive!

"Clive would be the same as any other politician and say whatever the voters want to hear in order to get elected, quoting sue.....yeah....if you can keep him awake long enough:).....see, lying to the public is perjury.....maybe an intensive make-over of how one talks to the public, just might do the trick.

I personal worry about Clives health....Iam afraid that if he falls too deeply into dream land...his head may disappear all together..quoting comments from the giant mashmelowman from the that something busters movie from the eighties:)

If Clive can have a nap while the countries future is being discussed, I think we are all in safe hands....or a plate of chips...whatever comes first:).....

Tony...your looking a safer bet in my opinion.
