Yes Albie Manton in Darwin, some of us do know.

They were never meant to be used as tugs, to tow illegal immigrants from Indonesia to Christmas Island. They were never meant to be used as tugs to tow even a dinghy, let alone the huge boats the people smugglers were using.

The navy were bitching about how the boats were being destroyed, but that did not stop Rudd & Gillard buying a few western Sydney Muslim votes, by using them to facilitate the illegal trade.

It's a joke, after years of that pair, & Beattie/Bligh, promoting their favored lawyers into all the top positions, that those same receivers of favor, now bitch when the boot is on the other foot. It really is time we had a few top judges who don't owe a favor to the Labor party.

Now come on Tony & take Queensland's lead, it's the ABCs time, just be careful you don't loose your boot. It might get stuck in all that fat.

The lawyers are still at it in the media.

Isn't it strange that they don't seem to understand the separation of powers. You would expect they, of all people, would understand the laws of the land.

I wonder what it is they don't understand. Should we have to tell them that they administer the law they have been appointed by the government to administer, not choose who will administer it.

You would think they would understand that they have to be elected to parliament, if they want chose who is appointed to the bench.

When they offer themselves for the people to elect or reject, they can have a say on appointments if elected. Until then, they are nothing better than any other nonelected pressure group, & probably a damn sight less deserving than most.
