you really think quoting news.com and the guardian gives your posts any credibility Max? They would of been the same fools criticising Tony Abbott when he was out fighting fires.

btw any reports on the abc of Tony Abbott putting his life at risk to save homes? Thought not, to busy with its idiotic attacks on Morrison who they see to think can make it rain. The regressives love causing havoc and blaming everyone else. The only mistake Morrison has made is not to stand up to these Green hypocrites. He could certainly learn a few things from Trump.

RUNNER - arsonist's can't start fires in the rain, can they?
Read my links above. SCOMO and his team ignored ALL the signs that this year was going to be the worst!

TTBN — you ought to be ashamed, and don't know how this country's government services are structured and have bought into a retarded National Party leader's conspiracy theory mantra, from a guy who can't keep it in his pants!

ALTRAV - ditto to the above!

You people are a joke, and are seriously dragging this forum's IQ down.

Honestly Altrav, once you had your petty little rant above did you bang the arms of your armchair and declare "My word! My word!" the way a stubborn old grandpappy out of a western might?

If you just say it to yourself 4 times it MUST be true, hey! (Winks.)

Except you lot are constitutionally ignorant and departmentally challenged.

You just don't know how this country works.

Ignorant little pissants.

'RUNNER - arsonist's can't start fires in the rain, can they?'

are you sure Max. Have you considered that you need rain for fuel to grow.

"TTBN — you ought to be ashamed, and don't know how this country's government services are structured and have bought into a retarded National Party leader's conspiracy theory mantra, from a guy who can't keep it in his pants!"

I'm certainly ashamed of you, Max. You lie about about the Greens culpability; you lie about a connection between climate change and bushfires. To cut a long story short, there's not much you don't lie about.

I'm also ashamed of an education system that has taught you to spray such gibberish by the yard, with yards more of references to people just like you. You and people like you - all the dupes of fraudsters -are a greater threat to Australia than natural phenomena that you don't understand.

Blah blah blah, assertion assertion assertion.

But where the heck is the evidence, Dude?

I'm not lying.

I just think I'm write.

To change my mind I need one thing.

Evidence.

Answer these 3 questions:

1. WHO IS IN CHARGE?
2. WHAT DOES THE SCIENCE SAY ABOUT THE SUCCESS OR OTHERWISE OF FUEL REDUCTION?
3. WAS THE LIBERAL GOVERNMENT WARNED?

I need evidence.

I have changed my mind before. 12 years ago I was anti-nuclear. It was a forum (a bit like this, but, you know, unlike this in that it was actually SMART) that changed my mind.

It can happen.

But I need EVIDENCE.

Without that you're just another annoying little piss-ant whining that I won't buy the shiny tinfoil hat you're trying to sell.

See, it's ACTUALLY a State government AGENCY that determines whether or not we burn off, isn't it? Not political parties! Until you can show me, with references, that "The Greens" had any power to interrupt these state agencies, you're just a whining little beeeatch!

I mentioned Max's verbosity in my last post, and here he is, trying to drown us in a sea of words again. I have always been of the opinion that you should use the fewest words possible to get you message across. That is, get to the point before you put people to sleep. Verbosity is also often used to hide the truth.

As 19th Century novelist, Honere de Balzac, wrote: "A flow of words is a sure sign of duplicity".
