    But even better, Gillard gave a glowing speech about how great Kevvy was when he was prime minister!!!! AHHHHH AHA AHAHAAH!

    Gillard and Rudd are two peas in a pod, every time they open their mouths lies and deceit come spewing out in great hot steaming torrents.
    Using that many capitals in a post usually indicates the contributor is prone to hysterics which isn't unusual for an LNP supporter. I bet you had to wipe the spit off your keyboard. People on the right are becoming more shrill by the hour and whining seems to be the national passtime.
    They tend to want a return to the good old days but those were the days when people didn't whine and they just got on with life.
    Now, they're scared of migrants, scared of refugees, scared of losing their middleclass welfare, scared of god, scared of arabs, scared of communists and scared of not having anything to be scared of.

    People in the “good-old-days” didn’t know any better. They were only told and kept informed by what owners of newspapers wanted them to know about politics and politicians. Toady is totally different with the internet, and people have the means to discover in a factual way just how deceitful and corrupt these parasitical politicians really are.

    We just saw these parasites in action when the Labor party decided to keep Juliar as the Prime Minister who only had 26% public approval over Rudd who has near 50% public approval as the countries preferred Prime Minister.

    Its OBVIOUS these parasites/politicians are not here to genuinely help ordinary Australians or to help Australia, but are here to simply HELP themselves for the short time they are in Parliament.

    Its time we the public stopped dismissing politicians lies and deceit as something that is ordinary and happens everyday, and forgive them for it.

    Its time we started holding them to a higher standard considering they are in powerful positions, and can make massive decisions that can effect millions of lives with the stroke of a pen.

    Failing to address the content of the post in their reply isn't unusual for a Labor/Green drone. They tend to support their Labor/Green masters blindly. They just repeat what they are told and believe what they are told to believe because they are incapable of thinking for themselves.
    Now they are scared because they are starting to realise, not withstanding their blind obedience, that their Labor/Green masters are actually a bunch of inept clowns.

    I'll cast my vote for the Australian Sex Party next election. I would normally vote Greens, but I don't want my preferences going to Labor.

    I was talking to my elderly Aunt the other night who had always voted Labor. She felt disgusted that the people within Labor would put the wellbeing and best interest of an inanimate object like a political party ahead of the people who they are suppose to represent and who they are employed by.

    She will never vote Labor again, and felt like a fool for giving them her loyalty for all these years.

    She used the analogy to me that politicians and political parties are like ’scabs’ that need to be picked off and chucked away forever.

    I feel really sad that these scum-bags have destroyed an older ladies faith in our political system.

    Shame on you Labor shame. I am hoping for nothing but the complete annihilation of your whole party!!

    Perhaps you could briefly list some of the "many more reasons" that cause you to have a problem with 'rich people'.
    Briefly, it's important to note that we all exploit. As i said, the greater the wealth, the greater the exploitation. This is a generalisation of course. It's common sense if one knows anything at all about our economic system. Corporations profit more the more they exploit, and those who invest in them reap the benefits of it. It doesn't need explanation, it's logical.

    Amusingly, a friend sent me a link to an article that is somewhat related with no prompting at all. We weren't discussing it:
    http://www.theage.com.au/executive-s...228-1tzn7.html
    The “upper class,” as defined by the study, were more likely to break the law while driving, take sweets from children, lie in negotiation, cheat to increase their odds of winning a prize and endorse unethical behavior at work, researchers reported today in the Proceedings of the US National Academy of Sciences.
    As i said before, i don't want to go into the many other reasons as unlike you i don't spend countless hours wandering around this forum while contributing remarkably little. I haven't the time. I spend more time reading than i do spouting. You should try it.

    The only difference I've noticed having moved in both spheres is that sociopath's tend to have some advantages in business and good guys do tend to come last a lot of the time. That's not to say all rich people are bad, just that bad people have a better chance of becoming rich, unfortunatly. Luckily those types of people usually end up crashing when things dont go as planned so some of the time it works out in the end except for the victim's of their pathology along the way. Otherwise I've noticed no difference. Its just that poor people resent rich people and rich people usually dont have any opinion of poor people, so you tend to get poor people hating on rich people.

    I think if you read the post you will find there wasn't any content to address. It was a rant, pure and simple - the sort of thing you hear on talkback radio.
    In making a statement that Bligh's government is corrupt you have to make some sort of attempt to support it otherwise it's not worth replying to.

    As for Katter, you've got to be kidding. His favourite rant is the suicide rate among farmers. He doesn't know or doesn't care that lathe operators are far more likely to suicide than farmers and the rate among the medical profession is double the farmer's rate - but let's not let facts get in the way of a good rant.
    If he wants to really do something about suicide he should start doing something about that paedophile factory called the catholic church. Their victims populate all of our gaols. Anita Cobby and quite a few backpackers would still be alive if the someone had done something about the paedophile priests who infested boys town.

    Um no not full of anything except questions and 1 statement. Just be honest and say, "I don't know the answers." Actually I don't think anyone does, not even the LNP. As for the statement, just say you don't agree. I don't either, maybe the 1950s though!
    Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life. Steve Jobs

    WTF LOL, its not just the Catholic Church, its any group where men have too much authority over children without overwatch. Way to go to avoid focus on the problem and promote the sensationalism instead. Makes you sound like your issue is with the church and not paedophilia itself!! Suicide happens for lots of different reasons anyway and if the worst you can hassle Katter for is representating the problems faced by his constituents then its a pretty weak argument.
