Well Poirot, since the opening post was specifically about Wong I was offering my opinion thereon, as seemed appropriate.
As I said, my observations were unisexual, applicable to all successful Party pollies, unless you expect me to list every local, state and federal member and print and reprint it endlessly?
My opinion was formed whilst the alleged lady was in Gov', long ago now, and she has consistently stayed true to form, so why should I feel any different now she's in Opposition?
Or does the fact that there are many more just like her, of both genders, mean that it is somehow permissible for she and they to be the nasty fakes they are?
Or mayhap one is NOT allowed to besmirch a "lady" political actor, because of her gender?
How sexist is THAT?
Would dear Penny agree with you?
She probably would actually, she plays fast and loose with her supposed principles already, doesn't she?

G'dayBruce,

Gee, you come over as a bright articulate person.

So let's call a spade a spade.

"My denigration of her, happily admitted, could as easily be applied to any of her male counterparts, it's gender-neutral."

"I denigrated her for being exactly what she is, a highly successful part of a decayed and rotten to the core Party political system."

Like I said, Warren Truss was part of the action that night....why not have a go at him as well. After all, he's part of the Party political system" you claim to be slamming.

You say:

"Well Poirot, since the opening post was specifically about Wong I was offering my opinion thereon, as seemed appropriate."

The opening post was "specifically" derisive of Wong for not intervening to defend her "people of origin".

You posted - "Dear Miss Wong was perfectly correct to not react overtly to the big oaf, politically, and, as I said, she's a consummate politician."

So, what you're saying, it seems, is that you saw a thread about Penny and thought it was an appropriate opportunity to slam her - even though you disagree with opening statement."

Okay.....

I actually don't have too many personality issues with any of them but seeing that it is impossible to get comensated for the financial & social losses we incurred courtesy of Labor, the least we could expect from them is an apology for the mess they made of our lives.
If Penny could perhaps stand up & clearly say "I'm sorry on behalf of all labor Politicians for what we inflicted upon Australians" then she could gain some credibility. The way it stands , well we'll just have to hope that the present outfit can pull us out of the mess, massive opposition to sense from the Left notwithstanding.

Absolutely Poirot, dear old 'Underfuhrer' Beach sits there in his snappy black uniform banging away at his keyboard, delivering a stream of insincere clap tray about "non whites, progressives, anyone considered left wing, and minority's in society, all awhile claiming to be some even handed and virtually non political. If he was fair dinkum on this he would be delivering a serve to Warren Truss the deputy PM who was also on the panel and said nothing. Did any of the 'Usual Suspects' actually watch the program, if they did they could be court marshaled next time they visit the bunker! Watching Q$A is deemed treasonous and defeatist by the Fuhrer.

Actually Po, if you stop and think you'll realise I wasn't disagreeing with the OP at all, it was deriding her and I did too, ergo sum.
Since she and Truss were not alone up front what was I supposed to do, critique each and every one? The audience too? The tweets also?
I said she was right to not react overtly to the big oaf, POLITICALLY, as in, it was good politics for her, a ploy, a mechanism, call it what you will, and indicative of the malaise infecting all our Parliaments.
If you'd like my opinion on Truss, start a thread about him, or any other pollie you care to name. Still, bar a very few, my opinion would be much of a muchness anyway, but since this is about that particular "person" I don't see what you're point is?
Perchance you object to ANYONE knocking her, at all?
Individual:
Why do you keep banging the Canetoad's phony drum?
All Australia knows full well that that is a load of.., so why don't you just move on to serious, real, problems, like the crime-wave we will all face if the Canetoad gets his way with the budget, or the deaths that will follow from the same cause, or the absolutely ludicrous mash-up he and Bishop are making of Foreign Affairs?

Why do you keep banging the Canetoad's phony drum?
G'day Bruce,
perhaps your definition of banging a drum is different to mine. What I am saying is that I hope like mad that despite all the negativity flung at the present Government, they will be able to make good at least some of the massive & unacceptable stuff-ups by Labor governments over the decades since that big Goaf. If you you think that Labor don't do massive stuff-ups then you're the the one with the drum banging problem. The Coalition thus far have been pretty disappointing but considering the idiotic opposition they are battling against one can understand the under-performance.
