I dont care how smart or competent she is, that voice of hers is just wrong.

There are a lot more out there to worry about embarrassing us.
Lot's of bogans go overseas doing it for us already.
Sqealing bumbling porky pig Johnny Howard wasn't our best ambassador.

Got stabbed in the back, just like like he stabbed Beasley. Gillard will get the same later.

Abbot Stabbed his boss in the back too. But I think Abbott stabbed Gillard some time ago, weren't they intimate.
Oh the vicious antics of politics.
Julius Ceasar once uttered,
" ete brute"

You don't have to go very far in politics to see it happens on all parts of the spectrum.

Keating ousted Hawke whilst labour was in government then during his honeymoon phase Keating won his one and only election as Prime Minister.

This may well be the future for Gillard.

BTW it's "Et tu, Brute" (You too Brutus) and it was in the Shakespearian play that he says it (almost every day around the World). Whether the real Emperor Julius Caesar actually said the words has been debated for centuries.

In the interests of not "staying quiet" - let me just say this (Rudism #1) ...

Some of us vote, based on our principles, in relation to issues of conscience, or, if I may put it another way, on philosophical lines. Although it has become a popular notion that there are no meaningful differences between the 2 major parties in Australia, I feel there are fundamental differences in the mainstream political agendas of our parties in many ways - social equity, to name but one. Hopefully, we all examine principles and beliefs which are important to us, and formulate a political opinion as a result. Alas, I know many who, I consider, vote for a party on a purely self serving basis rather than what I might call the "common good". That is their decision - one, man - one vote. But it is not my way.

I take a pragmatic approach and look to the overall political agenda, rather than being concerned too much, if indeed at all, by individual personalities. I wouldn't invite Mr Rudd to a BBQ at my home - but I do support and vote for the party he represents.

May I finish by saying - good luck to Julia. I hope she has a chance to demonstrate her ability. I have met her and believe she is a person of the utmost decency and principle.

There's a mini series caleld "Hawke" coming to TV soon. Interesting timing, eh !


Oh and scallops you can have whatever opinion you like but to look at the obverse side of that same coin... how can going broke and deeper into debt be for the "common good".?

I much prefer "Throw him to the ground roughly Centurion"

Appropriate, because we have just gone from "Biccus Diccus" to "Incontinentia Buttocks" as PM
