otb,

The Liberal Party was the one who decided Mr Abbott's
fate. It had nothing to do with me. He was ousted by
his own pittard and has no one else to blame but
himself. As you say - aw shucks! I would feel sorry
for the man, except he had so many chances and he blew
them all.

The forums 'Crusty Conservatives' and you know who you are, continue to cry in their beer over the demise of 'Fearless Leader'. Fella's get over it, Phony Tony's gone and forgotten, he ain't comm'n back. No matter how much you guys laments the loss of your hero, he is now like your other pin up boy, Little Johnny Howard, ancient history. The Australian political landscape is littered with failed conservative leaders, Pig Iron Bob, Billy 'Big Ears' McMahon, Bill 'Pants Down' Snedden, the list goes on and on, they are to numerous to count, Abbott is just one of many.

Here's a bit of fantasy that I got inspired
by Tony Lavin's piece of fiction:

"Hail to the Abbotites."
The followers of the One True Abbot.
His negative doctrine and His rejection
of social equity binds all the Abbotites together.
It is believed that the One True Abbot shall
rise and bring salvation to the masses. Therefore
let them stand firm and ensure that in future the
wisdom of the few shall set a fixed term in the
rule of this nation as other believers have
seen fit to enable in distant lands like the USA.

Had this been done in the past the One True Abbot
would still rule this day, and social equity, and fear
would reign.

So end this fable.

So Turnbull has announced that he will be attending the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. He had to make a big deal of it, not just go quietly like anyone else. Why? Is he actually a latent homo, or does he think he will buy more votes by doing so among poofters, than he will loose from the straight folk?

Rudd used to make me feel sick to my stomach, but Turnbull actually makes my skin crawl.

That people in an advanced western nation can be really thinking of voting for this bit of trash, indicates how close to collapse we really are.

Dear Hasbeen,

So you think Mr Turnbull is a piece of trash
because he may support same-sex marriage?

Mr Turnbull as our Prime Minster may just be
supporting equity for all of this nation's
citizens, including the right to marry a
consenting adult. After all, there is supposed
to be a separation between Church and State.
Mr Turnbull is also supposed to be pro a
plebiscite - let the voters decide as to what
kind of society they want to live in and vote on the
issue.

What could be fairer than that?
