If you don't care for it, why comment in here? #-o

If you read around now, the high-profile "greenies" are all saying that man-made climate change is a myth. While the 'climatologists' - the ones who stand to lose their careers - are still areguing that it exists. Their extensively industry would go down the toilet overnight. The fact of the matter is, these chemicals etc aren't being created, they already existed in the environment, they're just existing in a new state. You're not changing anything.

As for Tony Abbott, the Liberals are surely screwed now. I'd hate to think what would happen if he got in power. It would most certainly be worse than Bush. The man who's anti-abortion, pro-conscription, anti-union. The country would be fucked. Oh yeah...and he's a man of god... Good for him, but asking a voice in your head what the best thing to do is before you press the red button is NOT THE MAN YOU WANT RUNNING THE COUNTRY!

So what if he is Catholic afro, plenty of good leaders have been and still are.

This is such a shit move by the Libs, I dont vote as I am 16 but I have connections to the party due to my family being members and my dad running for them, I have met a lot of these people and my dad has met all of the big guns and he is absolutely distraught by this, the party is fucked and why they are fighting amongst them selves ruining any chances of election Rudd will continue fucking the country up untill he leaves a huge mess to his successor

They weren't devout catholics though. Excuse me for thinking that the person running the country shouldn't have to ask their imaginary friend what to do before they make a decision!

LOL what a crock.

Cough JFK

JFK's religious ties didn't impact on his ability to make decisions in office. Abbott's policies and opinions are guided by the church.

Not all Catholics are anti abortion and sterotypicaly strict people my family isnt. So Abbot shares ome views that his church does that does not mean his thought process is governed by the church

Yes, but ABBOTT IS! WHICH IS MY PROBLEM!! As I said, he's anti-contraceptive, anti-abortion, pro-conscription, anti-union, anti-same-sex-union, anti-premarital sex...

Well I doubt he will still be leading come elction time and if he is he wont win anyway so it doesnt really matter does it? Ruddy is too popular for now and it will take people a while to realize he is no good

Pretty incredible fuckup by the Libs.

I have a number of moderate Liberal friends who have repeatedly said they'll vote Labor if Tony Abbott is opposition leader: here's their chance. All of them have been disconsolate today.

And to be honest, I'm pretty pissed with the Libs for fucking up a) any chance of being anything but an obstructionist, token opposition party and b) the best chance for a leader (in Turnbull) to progress the Liberal party into the 21st century, and take into account the views and priorities of a majority of their voter base. Tony Abbott is a 19th century choice for what is quickly regressing into a 19th century party.

This is not good news for Australian democracy: I want a functional opposition party. We've seen what happens when we don't have one in WorkChoices, Gunn's, etc...

Australia needs a legitimate thirt party, the Liberals are fucked with Abbott in charge anyway.

Abbott are u serious what a joke!
Glad I supprt Labor anyway

This, I mean honestly labor is almost elected by default... Its embarressing

Bring back the United Australia party 8-[

*Quickly hops on to google it*
:lol: it still exists doesnt it? I mean pauline was going to sue the gov...
Ohhh wait One Nation ;)
Sure lets vote for the same random party en bloc

Hey, it works for Labour :P

We're in a pretty good political climate to bring in a third party right now. Turmoil in the established parties. Easy to make a good impression on the voters.

lol, actually it came out in the last election that the independents are getting more votes...
We could just draw names out of a hat and invite ben cousins and jarryd hayne to pose infront of the camera...

If you could tap into those independant votes, you'd be made. People are largely voting for the independants because they don't want to vote for the two major political parties with their lunacy.

[size=9]BINGO!!![/size]

Now we just need to find a way to spread our new party :-k and a way to publicise our policies.

Invite an hotblooded ranga from queensland? :lol:

Actually anyone who doesnt agree with the reporter normally does quite fine, I think we're quite due for an emo pm, cutting himself when he finds out the US wants to invade some random country

The FFT Party. We could take over australia.

FFT party... mmmm do you think they'll dig out that cahill story? :LOL:
and the dish out the dirt on KA ;)

Nothing would be safe with KA around :lol: We'd totally win the election, as long as we never told them what FFT stood for :P

actually I doubt they'd know even if we told them what fft stood for

Some moron would squeal.

We could always say it stood for "Federal Fortitude Trust" Party.

Abbott is electoral suicide, surely. Personally, no-one I've ever met likes him.

Almost choked on coffee yesterday when I read that Abbott was elected.

Christmas came early for Krudd

Abbott won't last. Turnball is gone. So as Abbott makes an ass of himself in parliament, more and more of his supporters will turn to Hockey as the answer to their problems. Clearly the leadership spill was a tad too early for Hockey and he wasn't really ready mentally and with the necessary numbers. he will be leader in under two years.

I'm surprised the media got it all wrong!!

Hockey was loyal to Turnbull thats why he isnt leader now, he would never have cahllenged him but Abbot is another story, he owes no such loyalty to him
